0:00.0	Hey everyone, or should I say Merry, hey everyone. Today's book is a Christmas classic featuring a thieving monster who then eats dinner with his victims. Also, I think it should be called How the Grinch did not steal Christmas because the point of the whole story is that he didn't.
0:21.2	Today's book is How the Grinch Stole Christmas by asterisk Dr. Suze.
0:28.1	And this is the book pile.
0:30.6	A podcast about the best of books and the worst of books.
0:33.6	If this is your first time to the podcast, welcome.

1:26.3	spend the day talking to law enforcement

1:31.8	I do think it's funny that every Hollywood producer knows that in your movie, if someone
1:37.5	learns the true meaning of Christmas, you are going to sell so much merch.
1:43.1	And I'm David Vance.
1:44.8	Kellan, today I made a couple Grinch thought experiments.
