| 0:18.0 | Hello and welcome to another episode of the fully charged show |
| 0:21.0 | podcast. |
| 0:22.0 | Very exciting episode this week. And I know I say that a lot because I do get a little bit over excited and I think |
| 0:27.7 | Unfortunately I got quite excited recording this episode, but only because the company the two people I was |
