| 0:00.0 | I want to welcome everyone back to part two of my reading of blockade by Anna Eisenmanger. |
| 0:09.7 | Before I get started, I want to remind everyone that Thomas and I, Thomas 777 and I are doing watch and comment parties on movies and the first movie we started with was Taxi Driver, the 1976 Martin Scorsese |
| 0:26.9 | classic, written by the Great Paul Schrader. And it's available gumroad. If go to freeman Beyond the Wall.com |
| 0:35.0 | forward slash taxi driver all one word you can access the gum road page for the video there and also I did the audio because I knew some |
