| 0:00.0 | So, Berto, what do you know about Roseanne Barr? |
| 0:11.1 | Roseanne Barr? |
| 0:12.6 | Well, I mean, I used to watch Roseanne back in the heyday of that show, and I loved it. |
| 0:20.2 | I really enjoyed it. I had a crush on the blonde girl |
| 0:24.3 | and I just, I thought it was a very kind of human show and I enjoyed it. Well, that's what I want to |
| 0:32.9 | talk about today. I want to talk about the blonde girl in the Roseanne show. No, just joking. I want to talk about |
| 0:38.3 | Roseanne Barr. I want to analyze her personality. What do you say? I think that sounds fascinating. |

| 1:23.5 | internet information and nothing else. |
| 1:26.5 | So all of it could be lies, literally. And none of that |
| 1:32.5 | is a substitute for me working 10 to 20 sessions with a willing client, which is how long it |
| 1:39.4 | takes me to assess someone's personality. So you're guaranteeing your diagnosis. |
| 1:44.6 | Right. |
| 1:51.0 | But having said that, for educational purposes, I think it is sometimes useful to look at someone's online personality and kind of comment on it from a clinical perspective. |
| 1:56.0 | Yeah. |
| 1:56.8 | So let's look at her personality. |
