| 0:45.0 | It is May 14th, Derek Van Riper, here with Enoseres. |
| 0:48.9 | On this episode, we have a follow-up to a question. |
| 0:52.6 | It became an article. |
| 0:53.5 | It was kind of like the tweet that became a movie. Eno wrote a piece about aces and how they're defined. He talked to a bunch of people around baseball to get them to weigh in on that.

| 1:54.4 | open up hiking trails. I just really feel like there are so many and maybe it's different when there's just a few |
| 2:05.3 | hiking trails and everyone go to the same ones, but there are so many hiking trails. |
| 2:11.3 | I live right up against the foothills here in Northern California and there's so many |
| 2:14.8 | hiking trails that I just can't imagine that we'd all go to the same |
| 2:18.1 | ones and if you see somebody on the trail it's fairly easy to just be like okay I'm going to go |
