| 0:00.0 | If someone said to me this weird thing you have that you don't know what it is, which in my case was called anxiety, you can get paid to have it. Wow. |
| 0:08.7 | Yeah, yeah. No, I'll send you one of the jackets. I got them. You know, Chris Getherd and Gary Goldman sent me one. So, you know, I'll make sure that it gets passed on. Yeah. I guess it's the first time hearing that there are jackets. |
| 0:23.1 | But, you know, you can't, you can't let everyone know. |
| 0:25.9 | I'm assuming you'll edit this part out, you know, just in case people. |
| 0:29.7 | Sure. |
| 0:30.3 | It's a private clip. |
| 0:31.7 | Yeah. |

| 1:29.9 | distortions, warping your idea of reality, of how the world really works. It makes your mind |
| 1:36.7 | tell you that there are huge and gravely serious threats all around you, that you need to be on |
| 1:43.8 | guard at all times, and that you need to be on guard at all times, and that you |
| 1:47.2 | need to spend time figuring out possible new threats that are surely about to attack you and |
