| 0:00.0 | Grumpy old geeks, a weekly talk show hosted by Brian Schultmeister and Jason |
| 0:06.8 | DeFilippo discussing the finer points of what went wrong on the internet and who's to blame. |
| 0:16.7 | Welcome to Grumpy old geeks on Jason DeFilippo. And I'm Brian Schultmeister. Jason, this is |
| 0:21.6 | episode 492. I went back and did the math. We have done 307 episodes since Trump won the election. |
| 0:29.1 | Yes, we have. We're mostly a Trump show. I don't know if that would, if you could, |
| 0:35.8 | you have to put a qualifier on that. Yeah, suppose we do. Well, with any luck, this is the final show |
| 0:41.4 | recorded under a Trump administration, but we still got 25 hours to go. So we'll see. Yeah, we're |
| 0:48.9 | getting there. We're getting there soon. Soon. The fingers crossed. It's hopefully we can have |
| 0:55.1 | the next show title called Armageddon averted. Yes, that would be nice. Yes, and we will be |
| 1:00.4 | taking next episode off. So you can come repatriate your sorry ass back to the United States for |

| 1:16.2 | you would be scrambling to find a guest host because no vacations for Jason. Yeah, Jason says |
| 1:20.9 | fuck it. In case it needs a break. Yeah, I would do the show, but you know, it's it's too |
| 1:26.9 | rough to move back across the countries and do a show that said next day. So a week off. |
| 1:32.4 | Yeah, well, after 307 episodes, I would like it. I would like a breather to like kind of just like |
| 1:39.6 | and get back to what we were good at if we were ever good at anything that is, I guess. But |
| 1:44.7 | yeah, since we don't have an ad next week and you're going to be traveling and I have to say that |
| 1:50.6 | I never really heard of blue Monday until yesterday and I have to say it's a thing. I'm aware of |
| 1:57.0 | the song by new order. Blue Monday is apparently the most depressing day of the year in the northern |
| 2:03.6 | hemisphere. So January 18th because it's like right in the middle between the last holidays, |
| 2:09.6 | the next holidays, the days are darker. It's colder. It's crappier. Trump's still here. |
