0:00.0	Hey, deserving listeners. It's just me today. I have been getting a lot of emails and messages
0:15.6	from people asking me to do an episode on Theon Greyjoy. I have done episodes on Joffrey.
0:24.0	I have done an episode on Ramsey, and Cersei, and the Hound. The one on the Hound is for patrons
0:30.9	only, so become a patron and you can hear that one. And people have been bugging me for, I
0:38.2	don't know, a couple of years now, asking me to do Theon because his character is just so darn
0:46.0	interesting. I think a lot of people identify with Theon. By the way, this is all from the Game
0:52.5	of Thrones, or the book series, the Song of Ice and Fire. If you didn't know that, then you are
0:57.9	not going to be interested in this podcast episode as my guest. But anyway, I think a lot of people

2:00.6	we lose our temper, or we make a bad joke, or we put our, you know, our foot in our mouth, or
2:06.4	we're insecure, and we lash out, or we're, we're insecure. We're immature. We're trying to act cool.
2:13.7	And then, and then we suffer a great deal because of that. And then in the end, we just look back and
