0:00.0	Hi, Confidence. So this episode is going to just be a little bit different from what I normally do.
0:07.7	I'm not sure what the fuck this episode is, but I feel like I can't not do this. I want to preface this episode though by saying I apologize in
0:18.4	advance because I'm sure I'm gonna fuck up. I'm coming from a place of trying to understand the back and forth of both sides.
