0:00.0	I'm I'm Renee Hunter Vasquez, joined as always by my co-host,
0:32.7	my husband, and my brother. Hi, I'm John Paul Vasquez. Hi, I'm Travis Hunter. This week, we're recording live
0:38.3	from the Santa Cruz boardwalk discussing the 2019 supernatural horror film, Us. This film was

1:41.4	favorites. Interesting. I only say that because I remember seeing it in the theater the first time and loving it so much.
1:50.5	And then I went and saw it again with Nay.
1:54.5	Me.
1:55.8	And I still loved it.
