| 0:00.0 | Okay, great. Nice to meet you. Look forward to the chat. And I'm all here. I guess your message was a little scant. If you want to just sort of tell me about what the issues are, we can take it from there. |
| 0:14.8 | Well, there's two things. Or as I said there, maybe it's one thing. I don't know. |
| 0:25.5 | The more immediate pressing thing for me, |
| 0:27.1 | which has been a problem for some time, |
| 0:32.6 | is I have been dealing with insomnia for a while now. |
| 0:34.6 | And I remember you talking about, |
