0:37.2	We were traveling the last couple weeks,
0:39.5	trying to record in different places as we were going across the country, back from Moscow,
0:43.3	Idaho. We will be departing for Malaysia here in about a week. And so this was probably the second
0:49.6	to last one I'll record here at home, but the last one in the prison pulpit series for sure. You can
