| 0:08.5 | And we're going to keep this between us. |
| 0:10.8 | Not really. |
| 0:12.0 | Okay, we're talking about protein. |
| 0:14.2 | Before we do that, you know what I've noticed recently? |
| 0:16.7 | Every patient who comes and says, |
| 0:18.0 | oh my God, you look so much better in person. |
| 0:38.3 | Do I look better right now or does I just look so bad on TV? I know I have a face for radio. That's like a thing people say, oh my God, you're so much prettier in person.
