| 0:16.4 | Welcome. Thank you for joining us. |
| 0:18.4 | In this episode, you speak to someone that you've been wanting to speak to for quite a while. |

| 1:32.1 | So she's faced quite a bit of that and through it all has just maintained a strong line and also evolved and progressed because, I mean, so the guests that I'm talking about. |
| 1:38.1 | Oh, stop. Don't, you're not going to say their name, are you? That's outrageous. |
| 1:41.4 | It is outrageous. No, I get to sit down and talk to Sarah Wilson in |
