0:00.0 | This is a global player original podcast. |
0:14.9 | Welcome to this dirty motherfucker quicker. |
0:18.3 | This is your podcasting bit on the side with me, Anna White House, my best mate in the house. |
0:23.9 | Polly Hazelwood. |
0:25.5 | There she is. |
0:26.8 | Okay. |
0:27.7 | So, wanted to get this rather toxic forum on the table. |
0:34.9 | So our aim on this podcast is to make sure there's no stone left unturned when it |
