| 0:03.7 | Prepare to set fire to the index card of allowable opinion. |
| 0:08.3 | Your daily dose of liberty education starts here, the Tom Woods Show. |
| 0:14.5 | Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of the show. |
| 0:17.5 | Talking to Stefan Kinsella today, because he's just, he's got one of those sharp, sharp minds. |
| 0:24.0 | He thinks clearly, he writes clearly, he writes and speaks very precisely. |
| 0:29.9 | He helps to clarify my own thinking. |
