0:00.0	Hello friends, vendors, and non-benders alike. Welcome to Braving the Elements Nickelodeon's
0:27.4	podcast about all things Avatarverse. I'm Janet Varney and I'm Dante Bosco. Before we get too deep
0:33.5	into this episode, I am so excited to announce that Braving the Elements is coming to San Francisco.
0:38.9	We are going to be doing a live episode of Braving the Elements at SF Sketch Fest this January.
0:44.6	We will be up there January 9th at 1 p.m. at the Great Star Theater for all the information including
0:50.9	guest info and more of what you can find for the three-week-long comedy festival we have going on.
0:56.7	You can visit SF Sketch Fest dot com. That's SF like San Francisco SF Sketch Fest dot com.
1:03.3	I have to say it was such a treat talking about those kind of big picture themes and life lessons
1:09.0	with idioma and carama. It kind of felt like therapy. Totally. I learned so much. There were so many
1:14.6	connections. Anybody, if you haven't listened to that yet, it's really a camp-miss episode. I know

1:37.5	The Blue Spirit. Oh, so good. One of my favorites for sure. One of the most memorable episodes for sure.
1:44.0	And listen, I'm saying that and I'm not even biased. You can be biased because it's a very
1:47.7	Zuko-centric, very wonderful Zuko episode. But if I think it's one of the best episodes of the season,
1:54.4	listen, I don't have any bias at all. All right. But you know, this is one of those situations where
1:58.9	I'm watching the episode again now. And I've watched a few times over the years. When we originally
2:03.4	did it, I may have not understood any of this stuff because it's not like I talked a lot during this
2:08.8	episode. Like literally. Very true. There's a lot. Yeah, did you, would you say one thing?
2:13.8	I think something at the end when the mask comes off, like I say something in the forest or something
