| 0:11.6 | host, Paul Blaze. Welcome to episode number 10021 of the Potter's cast. |
| 0:21.5 | Now, we've got a repeat guest on the show, and I like to do that every once in a while to kind of get an update or to talk about something new that's going on in their lives. |
| 0:31.5 | Well, this is Trevor Youngberg, and he was on the show back in the day, way back in the day. Episode number 349. That was back in |
