| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to Something's Off with Andrew Heaton. I'm your host, Bill McNeil. And today I am going to be joined by comedian Chad Prather who is here. He is wearing a cowboy hat and I am 90% confident he is armed so it is going to be a very polite |
| 0:25.7 | podcast today to make sure that everybody is all right. |
| 0:28.7 | We're going to talk about Facebook and the latest privacy flap and maybe whether or not Russia bought the election. |
| 0:35.0 | We'll get into all of that stuff and more. |
| 0:37.0 | And I'm also going to bring back hints from Heaton, and today I think I figured out how to fix France. |
| 0:42.0 | But before we do that, I do need to pay the bills so let's give out a shout to our sponsor. |
| 0:48.8 | Folks it's Christmas Eve and hopefully you've got all of your shopping done but if you haven't good |
| 0:54.5 | news there's still time to do last-minute shopping with our show sponsor |
| 0:58.0 | Wunderkim Industries and if you order in the next few minutes you can still get |

| 1:15.0 | from their store for trying to weaponize a vibrating chair. Just some of their wonderful gift |
| 1:19.8 | ideas include, Necktie Lubricant, the edible hammer, box sharpeners, and the passenger |
| 1:25.9 | side car grill. They're all terrific. But there's one more gift I'd like to talk to you about, |
| 1:29.8 | and that's wing attachments. For tractors. |
| 1:33.0 | These are 18 to 30 foot steel wing extensions you can fashion to a compact subutility, utility, |
| 1:38.0 | or specialty tractor in order to fix its one major defect, |
| 1:42.0 | the inability to fly. Now I've mentioned before that my |
| 1:46.1 | uncle Dan is a farmer and that's what I'm getting him this year. While not a farmer |
| 1:49.8 | myself I can't help but think the most frustrating part of that job is knowing how limited you are by a |
| 1:54.9 | terrestrial utility tractor that can't fly, not even, at all. |
