| 0:00.0 | Hey, quick note at the top of the show. I just want to let you know that this episode took kind of a darker turn than we are used to, about two-thirds through, and we started talking kind of in depth about some infant mortality. If that's not something you want to listen to, I totally understand, and we will see you next week. If you're still on board, I hope you enjoy what was otherwise, |
| 0:21.6 | well, |
| 0:21.8 | and including that, |
| 0:22.5 | a very interesting conversation. |
| 0:28.4 | I kind of am addicted to this new app |
| 0:31.2 | I put on my phone called Boxer. |
| 0:33.1 | I don't know what that is. |
| 0:34.4 | Okay, |
| 0:34.9 | so I get really stressed out by text messages. Okay. Do you? Uh, yes. Okay. |
