| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Spirits Podcast, a boozy dive into mythology, legends, and folklore. |
| 0:04.6 | Every week, we pour a drink and learn about a new story from around the world. |
| 0:08.1 | I'm Amanda phoning it in for both of us for this post-holiday week. |
| 0:13.5 | Now, just a little peek behind the scenes here at Spirits. |
| 0:15.1 | We record the intros to our episodes about a week in advance. |
| 0:18.5 | That way everybody can, you know, take time off if they need to and still get the episode out on time. So we are, hello, hi, from the past, recording this episode. And we will catch you up on all of our new patrons and thank our producer level patrons and all of that when we return next week. But in the meantime, this episode drops during Hanukkah.
