0:00.0	Well, we have a little bit of a different episode today for you guys. This is something that we've
0:05.0	never done on the show before, but I thought it would be really a great time of year to do this.
0:11.1	So rather than a typical episode where I'm walking, you know, through some content with Ken,
0:18.8	we're actually today going to be walking through
