| 0:00.0 | Hey, it's Alan and I just wanted to let you know that you can now listen to the ongoing history of new music early and ad-free on Amazon music, included with Prime. In the Premier League, everyone pushes their hardest to win, and now it's your turn. With their EPL Fantasy Challenge, Coca-Cola are giving you a chance to win big by beating the best. All you have to do is build a team based on rules set by an icon. |
| 0:22.2 | And to help you on your way, I've got a tip to help you build your team. |
| 0:25.3 | Make sure you keep an eye on fixtures. Who are the players up against next? |
| 0:29.1 | Sometimes it's not about form. Like there are some players that, for whatever reason, |
| 0:34.1 | always play well against certain teams. To do your research. |
| 0:39.0 | To get involved in the EPL Fantasy Challenge, all you've got to do is grab a Coke and scan the code on the pack. Just by playing, |
| 0:44.2 | you get a chance to win Coke swag or vouchers. But if you beat the icon who set the rules, |
| 0:49.1 | you could win vintage Coca-Cola jerseys, Premier League tickets, and more. So go ahead and get involved. |
| 0:55.9 | Grab a Coke, drink it in. Artists have never given up as much personal information as they do today. |
| 1:02.7 | Too much information sometimes. We don't want our heroes to be life-size. The reason we admire them |
| 1:09.5 | in the first place is because they seem to operate on a |
| 1:12.3 | plane much higher than us. They've got a special talent that affects us not just emotionally, |
| 1:16.9 | but occasionally spiritually. What then do we make of things? When we hear our favorite artist is |
| 1:22.9 | human and fallible like the rest of us and suffer from health problems. I've seen two reactions. |
| 1:28.4 | One is disbelief that they're mortal. Don't they have some kind of superpowers that keep them free |
| 1:34.2 | from sickness and disease? And we might have a hard time accepting that. The second reaction is that |
| 1:40.0 | such challenges humanize them. You know, hey, they're like the rest of us. I can relate. |
| 1:46.2 | Perhaps this knowledge intensifies a relationship with that person. And if the artist is open and |
| 1:51.4 | honest about their condition, it can be inspiring. And maybe by talking about what they're facing, |
| 1:56.7 | they can help other people with the same challenges and keep moving forward. |
| 2:04.6 | This, I think, is the real value in the personal health information that they share. |
| 2:09.9 | This is part two of a program featuring musicians who have had to deal with disease. |
