| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Late Night Sessions. I am Jeremiah Solva, the music producer here at Late Night |
| 0:12.5 | with Seth Meyers and I'm joined by Regina Spockdurr. Hi. Hi Regina. Hi Jeremiah. How are you? |
| 0:18.5 | I am so good. I'm so happy you're here. Thank you. I don't know if you remember, but I first |
| 0:24.4 | met you before I worked here. I was a music producer at VH1 and in 2006 you were a VH1 you |
| 0:33.1 | ought to know artists which were... Shout out to Liz Louie. Oh my God, that's true. I might have been her first. |
