0:00.0	Support for this show comes from the Genesis GV70 Performance SUV. Every Genesis is a reminder
0:07.6	to try something bold to keep growing, keep hustling. At Genesis, they've harnessed all
0:15.0	that excitement of beginnings into their performance SUV, the GV70. It's a car built to turn
0:22.4	heads with stunning design inside and out. It's packed with intuitive technology inside,
0:28.8	like the 14.5-inch infotainment system and fingerprint recognition, plus the GV70 features

1:43.7	of the fact that he has all these different formats that he can make. I've got blog posts and I've
