| 0:00.0 | Spurs in full cry here. |
| 0:03.7 | Lonella! Welcome, welcome listeners to a special bonus episode of The Extra Inch. |
| 0:33.0 | My name's Wendy, and I'm joined by a man you may know as Thelonious Phil from the Fighting Cock podcast, |
| 0:38.4 | but to me he's just my good friend, Tee. How you doing Tee? Not bad, man, not me. Good to |
| 0:43.3 | finally make it on the extra inch. Making your debut. Yeah, we've been good under better |
| 0:48.6 | tech of tautics, but we are where we are. Indeed. How are you doing? How's lockdown been for you? |
| 0:55.7 | It's been good. There's a lot of time with my family. But, you know, as we spoke about before the call, when you were from home, you normally, you know, in your boxes and you buy yourself in a house, and you're a house of three or four other people are men in their about so it's very very different but no lockdown's been been great but I'm kind of gagging for for it to be lifted |
