0:06.2	Hey guys, welcome back to We Met It Acme. I just want to say that I hope everyone is staying safe
0:11.6	out there. It's a really scary time. We've never experienced this before in our lifetimes. And
0:20.2	you know, a pandemic is really serious and I hope that everyone's taking it as seriously as they
0:24.6	should be and staying at home and you know, social distancing and self-quarantining if they don't feel
