0:00.0	Hello, friends. Welcome to Against Everyone with Connor Abbeb, 200, part two. Part two of this
0:06.7	massive episode, this three-part episode, three episodes over three weeks, featuring six
0:14.1	conversations. Each conversation has two previous guests of the show in conversation with each other
0:19.3	and me on a theme. These are people I've loved talking with. Most of them have been of the show in conversation with each other and me on a theme.
0:21.6	These are people I've loved talking with. Most of them have been on the show more than once
