| 0:00.0 | At Proximum Con William, you're listening to TTTL. |
| 0:12.0 | Happy New Year, one and all, and welcome to a New Year's |
| 0:18.2 | night special edition of TTTL, the show that is probably too beautiful to live under host Luke |
| 0:24.8 | Burbank, flanked here today, tonight by long-time producer Jen Flash Andrews, hi Jen. Hi Luke! |
| 0:31.7 | So all week we've been playing these special editions of the show because we're on vacation. |
| 0:38.0 | You and I anyway, Sean is still slaving away over a hot mixing board, making sure that this |
| 0:43.3 | audio that you're hearing right now actually goes out in his broadcast on 97.3 FM. |

| 1:57.4 | New Year's resolution being at today's January 1st is that we will have more train wrecks in 2009. |
