| 0:00.0 | Happy St. Patrick's Day. You know what else it's the anniversary of? It's the 10th anniversary of the Brian Bafini show, our original podcast. Well, we're celebrating this past decade and super excited about where we're going in the next decade. |
| 0:22.2 | You know, St. Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland. |
| 0:24.8 | And a little known information, he's also the patron saint of Nigeria. |
| 0:29.5 | That's why the Nigerian soccer team wears green. |
| 0:32.4 | How about that? |
| 0:33.6 | I actually cover this in depth in episode two, sorry, season two, episode 22, lessons from St. Patrick. |
