| 0:01.9 | A real quick thing before we get going, would you please follow our show in whatever app you're using to listen to us right now? Yeah, you don't even have to listen. You could just hit follow and it would really mean a lot to us. Yeah, there's probably like a follow button or maybe there's a bell or a plus sign. Like there's some symbol somewhere and then you'll get notified whenever we have a new episode. We would so appreciate it. |
| 0:22.7 | We really would. |
| 0:23.3 | It makes a huge difference for our show. Like there's some symbol somewhere. And then you'll get notified whenever we have a new episode. |

| 0:37.4 | Unbelievable. |
| 0:38.4 | And so we have been thinking about work-life balance because... our three-year anniversary. Three years. Isn't that unbelievable? Unbelievable. |

| 0:49.5 | Right? |
| 0:50.9 | So we have been discussing ways that we can like take some breaks now and again, but not leave you. Because we couldn't do that. We couldn't do that. So we don't want to do seasons because then we'd be gone for weeks. We would miss you so much. Also, we cannot let all of these etiquette crimes go unsolved. We can't do that. No, it would be irresponsible for us. Plus, we are trying to achieve world peace, |
| 1:10.8 | and that does require diligence. Diligence, but maybe little breaks to regroup, so we're thinking we will do Monday holidays. Yeah, so if there's a holiday and it happens to be on or near a Monday, we're going to take a little break. And today's Labor Day. And so we're going to take a little break. |
| 1:43.5 | So we're going to bring back one of our favorites. And this is a good one. This is definitely one of my favorites. Also, we talked about something in this episode, which I'm not going to give away, which I was reminded that I have to watch. And as I re-listened, I was like, oh, still haven't watched it. So I'm going to enjoy it on Labor Day. |
