| 0:00.0 | Hi everyone, this is Jeff, producer of Conversations with Tyler. |
| 0:07.2 | Today we're bringing you the 2020 Year in Review episode. |
| 0:11.3 | This is a chance for Tyler and me to take stock of the year, for me to ask Tyler some of |
| 0:15.1 | your questions via Twitter, and a few of my own, and of course, to play, name that production |
| 0:19.6 | function. |
| 0:20.6 | We also talk about the most popular and most underrated episodes of the year, Tyler's |

| 0:40.6 | Lastly, I want to thank everyone who's given to support the show, including by the way, |

| 0:52.3 | gifts. |
| 0:53.3 | Some of you have written to say that the show has been a companion on solo walkabouts or |

| 0:58.5 | That's an experience that resonates very much with me, one that I treasure and I think makes |
| 1:03.5 | podcasting very special. |
| 1:06.2 | Of course, if you listen to last year's episode, you know, Tyler understands none of that |
| 1:10.3 | because he doesn't listen to podcasts, but I hear you and I love seeing those notes |
| 1:14.6 | and I love that we can be a part of your life in that way. |
