| 0:06.3 | Like here? |
| 0:07.5 | No, even close. Like, eat it. |
| 0:09.4 | Right up against it. You know the drill. |
| 0:11.3 | Right here. |

| 0:14.9 | I'm trying to. |
| 0:15.7 | Yeah. |
| 0:16.8 | On the Wind is sponsored by Athletic Greens. |
| 0:20.1 | You've heard Emma talk about her experience with |
| 0:22.5 | athletic greens, but mine actually goes back a lot further. This is a long time coming because |

| 1:21.5 | if you will. The pirates should have had this back in the day. With one scoop of AG1, |
| 1:26.2 | you're absorbing 75 high-quality vitamins, minerals, |
