| 0:00.0 | Welcome to another episode of T-Rex Talk, the official podcast of T-Rex Arms. My name is Isaac Botkin, |
| 0:07.7 | and I'm the only one talking to you on this episode, which is going to be very short and sweet, |
| 0:13.1 | because technically all I'm going to do is explain to you what happened to the Lost episode. |
| 0:20.3 | So today is September 16th, and earlier today at 4.30 p.m. |
| 0:24.4 | we did a normal live broadcast, um, which we've been, you know, relatively good at doing every week. |
| 0:32.5 | Now, this podcast is not primarily a podcast. Uh, primarily, um, it is a YouTube live stream, and then later I upload the MP3 that we've done from the |
| 0:44.9 | live stream. |
| 0:46.0 | But today was a little bit different. |
| 0:48.9 | The title of the live stream was how to build out a rifle. And Lucas was going to demonstrate a couple different |

| 1:11.6 | But after the live stream began, and it was only a few minutes in, |
| 1:17.6 | apparently enough people had flagged the live stream that it was taken down. |
| 1:22.6 | So they renamed it, how to build out a tool, tried again,, and it was taken down again. Now, at this point, |
| 1:28.8 | I should note that it is against YouTube's terms of service to demonstrate how to build a firearm. |
| 1:37.0 | In our defense, we were not building a firearm, we were merely assessorizing a firearm, but |
| 1:42.3 | the phrase, build out a rifle and build a rifle are pretty similar. |
| 1:46.4 | And when the YouTube folks took a look at the live stream, they decided that it violated |
| 1:51.2 | their terms of service and killed the live stream. |
| 1:53.9 | Now, to be fair to YouTube, they have to have a much lower tolerance for live streams |
| 1:59.5 | because they are in fact live and people tend to have a |
