| 0:00.0 | Okay. So this happened yesterday, and I had to, and it spurred a conversation that I thought |
| 0:04.8 | would be perfect for on air. So I was moseying down the hallway, and I saw Kevin sitting |
| 0:12.0 | at his desk. Yeah. And, you know, I sat down and Kevin proceeds to pull out a sandwich |
| 0:20.3 | of some sort in a bag. No, I don't know if it was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, |
| 0:25.8 | or what, what, is that what it was? Well, it was actually chicken salad. Okay. But Casey |
| 0:30.6 | told me for the sake of the segment, it should be PB and J. Well, I think PB and J is making |

| 1:31.7 | And he starts shouting from back in his office. And we got down a rabbit hole of how exactly |
| 1:38.8 | the last meal for a person on death row operates. Yeah. And it turns out basically every state |
| 1:48.5 | is like totally different, different. Yeah. On what you can have, the cost of what you can have, |
