| 0:04.8 | of this, which usually has more effects, more visuals, more graphs, you know, drawn out stuff, |

| 0:18.6 | Hey, well, it's cool on you guys. Hope you're having an amazing evening. I am, well, you've caught me in a |
| 0:26.4 | reflective state. I don't normally make, actually, I don't think I've made a piece of content at night. |
| 0:33.7 | And really, I think since I've started this thing, it's been, it's an interesting evening for me. |
