0:00.0 | Hello, friends, a quick note to say that on Thursday, on Thanksgiving Day, 2021, HBO will premiere the documentary DMX, Don't Try to Understand. |
0:12.1 | It's part of the Music Box series of documentaries, brought to you by Bill Simmons and Ringer Films. |
0:17.6 | I'm psyched for this one. |
0:18.6 | In the meantime, you can check out the first two movies in the |

1:27.5 | Let's not turn this into an analytics thing, |
