| 0:00.0 | Hi, Eric here. And before we jump into this week's episode, I have some great news. |
| 0:05.7 | On Sunday morning, July 5th, my daughter, Eve, was born. Here are some of our first sounds. |
| 0:16.0 | Eve and her rock star mom are both super happy and healthy. But as Brittany and I mentioned, I'll be taking |
| 0:21.5 | some time off from the show to spend at home. But don't stress, because we have some amazing |
| 0:26.2 | guests lined up for you in the meantime that we're really, really excited about. Just an FYI, |
| 0:32.0 | this week's show was recorded before those events. Before we start the show, here's a quick story about Eve's first few days in the world. |
| 0:41.9 | We decided to breastfeed Eve, and these first few days have been really stressful. In addition to the first couple of sleepless nights and, you know, all the traditional things that come with being a new parent, |
