0:00.0	Mother Knows Death, starring Nicole and Jenny and Maria Kukane.
0:19.0	Hi everyone, welcome to Mother Knows That. This is our annual questions only episode. So Maria is going to ask the questions and we will answer them.
0:32.0	All right. First, what do the majority of people or children choke on over the holidays?
0:42.2	I don't know if there's anything different during the holidays than any other time a year,
