| 0:00.0 | Truck family, this week on Barbara Elshrugg, we are talking about some simple sleep solutions |
| 0:04.3 | and some new studies that have come out talking about how sleep affects testosterone, fat |
| 0:09.8 | loss, etc. and incredibly excited about this because this is one thing with all the |
