0:23.0	Hi Chris. Hi Brendan. How are you? I'm good buddy. How are you?
0:28.0	Yeah, it's always a crutch for me to ask someone how they're doing and I don't know if.
0:32.0	Well, if you ask me in the morning, I'm usually a sarcastic jerk about it, but you're getting me at a good time.
0:36.4	So I'm actually going to say I'm doing fine today. Pete, Pete, Chris Nie. So as
