0:00.0	Here you go.
0:03.0	go.
0:04.0	go. Five. That's the Nothing Personal Award of the day. It is Thursday, October 31st,
0:22.4	2004. Happy Halloween. October 31st, 2024, happy Halloween and of course happy birthday to our esteemed producer Matthew
0:28.4	Koca.
0:29.9	Best day of the year, Halloween, five.
0:33.4	You knew that would be the word of the day.
