0:10.0	Okay, hello and welcome to 2020. Happy New Year! Today's the first and it's the first
0:17.3	Lissor's episode of the decade of... Wow! Just hit me. That one took me for a ride.
0:24.2	If we had thought of that in December that it was the last of the decade we probably would've had a meltdown.
0:29.2	We would've done something really dramatic, I'm sure. Like scream into your ears. Wow! Okay, well happy
0:34.4	decade guys. Happy! Welcome to the roaring 20s. Wow! And my little flapper. Christine is right here
0:41.0	by my side. Flaping along. Flap, flap, flap, flap. Flapy bird. As you do. So we have a whole new decade

1:31.3	know why I do these things that I do. So six or seven depending on the story we do. We read that
1:39.5	many of you guys's submissions and as long as they're about the theme. Sometimes it's about

1:47.8	cheese. Yeah, we have a good time in this apparently last week or last month. I requested
