| 0:00.0 | Christine, please don't hang up. |
| 0:12.0 | I know I'm probably the last person you want to hear from after I ran away to the big city. |
| 0:16.0 | But when I saw you hang Christmas lights with Roger, I got scared. |
| 0:20.0 | The tinsel and decorations from my works holiday party is nothing like what I experienced |
| 0:23.8 | a nostalgia town with you. |
| 0:25.4 | I know now the true meaning of Christmas is our love. |

| 1:28.3 | As a young bloodthirsty sky beast, I used to do my part with population control, feeding |
| 1:33.3 | on the innocent and causing destruction. But recently I've just been really into podcasts. |
| 1:38.3 | Ever since I discovered how good indie podcasts are, I've spent every holiday that I materialize, |
