0:00.0	Well, hey, all you wiretappers out there, I'm back here in studio, Gangland Wires, you can tell,
0:04.5	doing another little YouTube thing primarily, but I'll put the audio up too. I'm doing these
0:12.6	trying to amp up by YouTube, so like them, share them, tell your friends about my YouTube
0:18.5	channel. I'll continue to do these as long as the YouTube
0:21.1	channel builds. And I want to get it caught up with the audio podcast, which is about probably,
0:30.3	I don't know, three or four times as big right now as far as listeners. I'll be losing listeners
0:36.2	from the audio back over the video probably as word
0:39.6	gets around, but I don't know. It's all fun for me. It's all gravy. And I just have a good time
