0:08.7

Sounds fascinating. This is the Psychology and Seattle podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Kirk Honda.

0:13.7

I'm a therapist and a professor. And my favorite chord is probably an A suspended chord.

0:22.0

A suspended two or four. On a guitar when you just do the two strings and A it's like

0:30.5

it's an A. A fourth, yeah. Okay, an A suspended four is my favorite chord.
