| 0:00.0 | Psychology in Seattle. |
| 0:07.2 | So, Berto, we did an episode on Ted Bundy 10 years ago with Lita, and I thought we would do an updated version because, you know, presumably we're smarter now. |
| 0:16.7 | I can't believe it's been 10 years. |
| 0:18.1 | Like, that still feels like, yeah, a couple years ago we did Ted Bundy. |
| 0:21.1 | Yeah. |
