| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the conversationsations That Matter Podcast. My name is John Harris. It is a |
| 0:17.0 | blustery cold day here in upstate New York where I am sitting currently, but warmer than it has been the last few days. |
| 0:25.4 | It actually got down to about, now some of you are going to make fun of me if you're in Alaska |
| 0:29.7 | or maybe the northern parts of the Midwest, but it got down to about 7 degrees the other day. |
| 0:36.6 | Early in the morning, that's when it's the coldest, right? |
| 0:38.8 | I had to get up and there was something wrong with my heater and I had to go outside and go down to the basement and fool around with that and figure out why it wasn't working. |

| 1:19.5 | I can go out and maybe take a little hike up a mountain or something. There's a challenge in the Catskill Mountains which I'm pretty close to. |
| 1:28.1 | And I've done the first part of this challenge. The first part is climb all the Catskill Peaks all 3500 feet any time of the year |
| 1:37.4 | and four of them I think you need to do in winter and you need to do them twice so that's |
| 1:41.1 | the challenge I did that took me years to do them twice. So that's the challenge. I did that. It took me years to do it. The |
