0:00.0	Hey guys, Mackenzie Atwood here. Welcome to the kickoff of season 2 of the Stephen Universe
0:09.0	podcast. I'm so excited to be able to bring you guys another in-depth look at the making
0:13.7	of one of my favorite shows, and this time we're going to be exploring the people and
0:17.2	places that make up the Stephen Universe world. We're talking about the cast, the characters,
0:21.6	their surroundings, and of course the music, and we're going to be doing it with the
0:25.0	crew in-iverse. And I'm sure you can guess of course we're going to be starting off

1:21.8	and how they've sort of diverged or converged as Stephen is developed. So like what parts of Stephen's
1:28.4	arc or personality are drawn from Stephen Sugar and what's completely original? Well, I think that
1:35.2	one common thread between Stephen the character and Stephen, my brother is that he can be really
1:41.9	selfless, especially when it comes to sort of cheering me up when I'm down. I think in a lot of
1:46.6	these stories, he's sort of putting himself second. A lot of the stuff that, at least from what I
1:53.0	remember, like going back to the beginning of the series, a lot of Stephen's temperament came from
