| 0:00.0 | What's up, everybody? I'm Matt. This is the 10-minute Bible Hour podcast. Have you ever |
| 0:10.8 | listened to a comedy routine by Bill Burr? You know, the guy, the bald dude, he was on |
| 0:14.9 | the Mandalorian for a couple episodes. He played a space scoundrel with the guns that |
| 0:19.3 | he could wrap around corners and shoot at people, space lasers. I don't know if there's |

| 1:20.0 | each other enough that we can just have a laugh about everything together. And we're |
| 1:23.4 | all in on the joke and we all like each other. That's when you know you've got friends. |
| 1:27.1 | But in the world of comedy, that's not really where we are right at the moment. You have |
