| 0:04.3 | Welcome to the bad broadcast. I just noticed that I'm holding my microphone. I normally have my mic stand, but I was actually all set up for an interview this week. And then I got so sick. |
| 0:40.2 | I don't know if it was food poisoning or the flu. |
| 0:43.4 | But I was so sick these last like three or four days. |
| 0:46.8 | Sicker than I've been in probably, I don't know, probably since I was like a teenager. |
| 0:50.6 | I haven't been this sick. |

| 1:42.3 | feeling so much better. |
| 1:44.8 | But not only was I sick, but then on top of that, you have this, like, guilt of being sick. |
| 1:50.7 | I don't know if anybody else deals with this. I feel like most moms probably do. |
| 1:54.8 | But, like, you feel like a literal piece of shit, like the most worthless person who has ever |
