| 0:00.0 | Hey there and welcome to the Thinking Fellows podcast. My name is Caleb. And today I'm joined by |
| 0:05.6 | Dr. Scott Keith, Adam Francisco, and a guest, Dr. John Norton. How are you doing, Dr. Norton? |
| 0:11.8 | Doing great. It's been a while since I think we talked, I talked about having you on the show |
| 0:16.1 | on the microphone like probably six months ago. Really? Because, yeah, because you were getting ready to publish this book here. |
| 0:23.8 | And as listeners can tell, today we have a guest because we're going to do one of these special |
| 0:28.2 | episodes that we've been talking about. |
| 0:30.1 | We've been doing a lot of Q&A episodes. |
| 0:32.1 | But what we're going to do today is actually talk about a book that's been published at the 1517 |

| 0:56.2 | it's a new item for listeners to get on something kind of interesting and interesting cross |
| 1:01.7 | for the show today. As always, you can download the show on your computer via our website |
| 1:07.8 | thinkingfellows.com. You can listen to it live there. You can listen to it on your |
| 1:11.2 | favorite podcasting apps. I typically, since the iTunes podcasting app has really taken a dive for the |
| 1:17.5 | worst since the latest update, I would suggest something. Is that even possible? Yeah, it's pretty bad now, |
| 1:23.9 | which is sad because I think like 80% of our listeners get it through the iTunes podcasting out. |
| 1:29.6 | You know the funny thing is as much as I would say I hate it, it's the only one I can figure out like how to get on my phone |
| 1:35.6 | because I think it comes. |
| 1:37.2 | Yeah, it's standard, which is why I'm loaded on my phone probably. |
| 1:39.7 | Yep. |
