0:00.0	Hello everyone and welcome to the filmcast, a podcast about movies.
0:23.6	I'm David Chen, and I think wax on, wax off a little bit too sexual for a catchphrase.
0:28.5	Let's use jacket on, jacket off instead.
0:32.4	No problem.
0:32.8	Joining me today's Divinder Hardwar.

1:43.9	been saying that David Chen,
1:46.0	you have been inappropriately bragging about putting Final Destination bloodlines on your dark horses
1:51.3	because Divinger Hardware also put it on his dark horses.
