| 0:10.0 | I'm Jesse Thorn, America's radio sweetheart, and I'm Jordan Morris, boy detective |
| 0:15.0 | And this is Jordan, Jesse, GO! |
| 0:18.0 | Hey Jordan, Jesse GO listeners, it's Jesse. Listen, this week me and Jordan have both been out of town all week and working really crazy hours |
| 0:25.0 | And stuff like that, so we weren't able to record a new show, however, I thought you guys might enjoy this. I interviewed Ira Glass for the first time |
| 0:40.0 | Hey Jordan, Jesse GO listeners, it's Jesse. Listen, this week me and Jordan have both been out of town all week and working really crazy hours and stuff like that |
| 0:48.0 | So we weren't able to record a new show, however, I thought you guys might enjoy this. I interviewed Ira Glass from this American life recently for my other show, The Sound of Young America |
| 0:59.0 | And I wanted to ask me a couple of questions about Jordan, Jesse GO, surprisingly enough, which apparently he and his wife listened to, something like that, so that's neat |
| 1:13.0 | So anyway, he suggested that we record it, and I thought since it seemed silly to put it on the radio, that we should put it here on Jordan, Jesse GO, especially since there's no show this week |

| 2:10.0 | That's an interesting question, Ira |
| 2:13.0 | Maybe just you and me |
| 2:14.0 | Yeah, well, we can put this on, this is podcast exclusive material |
| 2:20.0 | So Jordan comes in and usually Jordan has some funny thing that he wants to talk about because he's basically the funniest guy I've ever met |
| 2:27.0 | And everything he sees is like new and wonderful in his eyes and delightful in some way |
| 2:36.0 | So he'll have like two things that happened to him that he's really wants to talk about like he met Frank Stallone or he hated Hawaii or something like that |
| 2:48.0 | I think he actually liked Hawaii but he did really want to talk about the time he met Frank Stallone |
