| 0:02.2 | Welcome to the fitness stuff for normal people podcast for what is. |
| 0:07.0 | Actually, the final episode for now. |
| 0:09.2 | The title's not a joke. |
| 0:12.7 | After a lot of thought and a lot of consideration, we've decided to step away from the podcast for a couple reasons that we'll get into, not because |
