| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the K-E-XP Runcast. My name is John Richards. I host the morning show at |
| 0:06.5 | K-E-X-P. You can always go to our app or tune in at 90.3 in Seattle, 92.7, in the bay, to hear the show. |
| 0:14.0 | I wouldn't stop you from running with the show. I would stop you from running well away from the show. |
| 0:19.4 | Today is going to be our second live at K-E-X-P Runcast. |
| 0:23.9 | The feedback was so good from the last one that I put another one together of bands that have |
| 0:29.2 | come by K-E-X-B or we've had live on the air. |

| 0:40.3 | I wasn't expecting that. It's what I needed as I feel the warm Pacific Northwest summer starting to ebb away day by day. |
| 0:46.3 | My frown, indeed, turned upside down when I heard the first notes of Black Pumas and realized what this run cast held in store as I |
| 0:54.8 | transported in my mind to a dust-covered outdoor venue where music really captures the human spirit |
| 1:00.8 | and lifts us all up together. Anyway, no expletives, but deep, deep gratitude and post-run zen. Tim, |
| 1:08.6 | appreciate the no expletives. That is a great fucking email. |
| 1:12.3 | Let's get running. |
| 1:12.9 | What are you turn to walk away when I come out. |
| 1:25.3 | What can I say to make you all |
| 1:30.3 | Give me your child |
| 1:33.3 | Every time you run, run away |
| 1:38.3 | You keep trying so hard, so hard to love for me You don't want to get hurt |
| 1:46.0 | Your friends try |
| 1:49.0 | If you give me a chance |
| 1:52.0 | And I would never let you down |
