| 0:00.0 | All right. |
| 0:07.0 | Next up is a basic bedazzlers question. |
| 0:11.0 | Yeah, I like that. |
| 0:12.0 | I like y'all's names. |
| 0:13.0 | You know, take something we've shared and kind of jazz it up a little bit. |
| 0:17.0 | Bedazzle it would say. |
| 0:19.0 | He says, I'm getting a high deductible health plan at 25. |
