| 0:00.0 | Hey deserving listeners, we have a special guest with us on the podcast today. |
| 0:04.8 | Jessamy, welcome to the podcast again after 30 or 10 years or something since you were on the podcast last. |
| 0:12.1 | Or wait, you've been on the podcast a number of times I think just two okay you |
| 0:16.8 | came on as a student after family of origin ten years ago and then you came on you came to like the podcast parties that we |
| 0:27.5 | would have where there'd be like a crowd of people and other kinds of things. |
| 0:31.2 | Yeah I think just one of those I had the first one with just Jamie and I and then right one of those things. So welcome back to the podcast Jessamy. Thank you. I just got done telling Bob he I haven't seen him in three months because of a number of, usually |
| 0:46.9 | we see each other every week or every two weeks, but he and I have just been, you know, like out of town or busy or something and so I finally got to see him and in the course of the conversation |
| 1:01.5 | came out that I pogo it off my head he didn't hear about that he |
| 1:05.4 | didn't listen to that episode so it just came up kind of randomly in a conversation so I was |

| 1:51.1 | That's a good thing to cry about. And also don't you know I was stupid and I don't want to die either and but it's nice of you to cry there but I don't want to drag you down with my stupidity. |
| 2:03.0 | And then that led me to talk on the podcast |
