| 0:00.0 | My biggest screw up in life is everything that I'm interested in nobody else wants to talk about. |
| 0:06.0 | Okay. Do you want to talk about Bake Light Backgammon Checkers? |

| 0:48.0 | We're going to kick this week's episode off with something a little bit different, covering a topic that we don't talk about too much and that's how |
