0:00.0	Hey, this is Josh. The show will be back on in a moment, but first I want to tell you,
0:05.3	this is not even a sponsor. This is just something I love. Ruin is one of my favorite

0:25.2	live show, August 29th at 7 p.m. Eastern Time. The show will be available to watch for 72 hours
0:30.8	after the stream for ticket holders. You miss it live. But you should watch live. It's, like, so nice to enjoy a thing and so nice to do it safely from home.
0:39.3	They'll be ruining the movie old, the new M Night Shyamalan movie, which is going to be so much fun.

1:34.3	I play a game with a guest or a team of guests who are guaranteed to win because they're the only contestants.
1:39.3	As I go through the game with my guests, I assign them points based on how much their answers to my questions cheer me up. Then at the end, the winner or winners, and again, I must reiterate only
