| 0:00.0 | Psychology in Seattle. |
| 0:07.0 | So Bob, I have a lot of questions from listeners for you. |
| 0:12.0 | So I thought I would read those questions and then we would answer them. |
| 0:15.7 | What do you say? That sounds curious. |
| 0:19.2 | This is the Psychology in Seattle podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Kirk Honda. |
