| 0:00.0 | I'm pulling my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for the drive to work. |
| 0:05.5 | Okay. So today, I'm going to talk about a job that I don't talk about very often. |
| 0:12.0 | One of the mini hats I wear is as unrules manager. What does that mean? So, um, the, uh, I created a set called unglued and later a set called unhinged that have |
