0:08.4 | We got kicked out of our room. Yeah, exactly. Scheduling got weird. We got kicked out of our rooms. |
0:12.5 | They're actually recording on my phone again. Sam's here, Audrey's here, and yeah, so we're just |

0:23.1 | Topic! Rich, yes, sir. Do you know how many millions of copies the week on Soul? |
0:29.3 | I'm going to say 70. So what do you think, Audrey? I'm going to guess 80. |
