| 0:00.0 | Hello, welcome back to the Presti-TV podcast feed. |
| 0:15.7 | I'm Joanna Robinson. |
| 0:16.9 | I'm Rob Mahoney. |
| 0:18.2 | It's Mr. Burger Kabob himself, Rob Mahoney. How are you doing? You know what? I don't want any associations with mystery meat after this week. You know, if it's ground and unrecognizable, I simply don't want to be associated with it. We're pretty nervous about it. We're pretty nervous about it. This episode is titled Got Milk, Episode 5 of Plurvis, we should say. That's the show we're talking about. We are recording this a little early. We're recording this on Monday, the Monday before the Thanksgiving holiday, just to get ahead of some of our stuff. So we won't have the usual, like, checking in with the official podcast, checking in to see what Reddit thinks of this episode, et cetera, et cetera. This is just unadulterated. |
| 0:56.5 | Rob and Joanna, our thoughts only. |
| 1:00.7 | Also, I mean, hopefully you've already noticed by the time you're listening to this, |
| 1:04.1 | but the episode itself, the plurper episode itself, dropped a little early on Apple to get in front of the Thanksgiving holiday. |

| 1:28.0 | You're like, it's, it's, it's Robin Joanna. It's a must, it's a must listen. We got to. |

| 1:51.3 | We talked about unusual formatting inside of Vince Gilligan episode. |
| 1:58.2 | What did you think of this episode in which Carol is alone for much of the runtime? |
| 2:04.2 | You know what? I loved it. Did you? Tell me. I think this was my favorite episode since the pilot. |
| 2:09.0 | Since the pilot. Okay. Tell me why. Some of that is like the way that it sort of brings the personal |
| 2:15.0 | stakes for Carol and the global stakes for Carol into very direct conversation. |
| 2:19.3 | I thought it was very elegantly done. I was all about it. You know, the grief has been there for |
