| 0:00.0 | Pushkin Because part of the reason why you feel on the outside is like, you know, that struggle to express yourself and figure out what it is you're feeling and you're looking for |
| 0:23.6 | validations of your identity and how other people are responding to you and stuff |
| 0:28.2 | like that and if that doesn't always align perfectly with what you're |
| 0:32.0 | it's just it just seems so natural you're learning so much |
| 0:34.8 | about you that was Jericho Hinton I'm Sam Fricoso and this is talk easy |
| 0:41.1 | welcome to the show. Oh, Erica Hinton is an actress whose work has been primarily in television. He looked down the list and she is guest-starred in all kinds of shows from |
| 1:15.8 | Gilmore Girls to Gossip Girl to scandal, but then she got her big break on Gray's anatomy. |
| 1:24.0 | If you've seen the show, then you probably remember her recurring performance as Dr. Stephanie Edwards. |

| 2:25.4 | circuitous way of me saying I wasn't prepared, but I did have stuff to talk |
| 2:30.5 | about it's just that talking with Jericho and my limited time demands |
| 2:36.1 | that you be present and responsive. And she made being a host of this show really phenomenally easy because she was open to go anywhere in game to talk about anything. |
