0:09.0	It's a crazy world, it's a crazy world, somebody's gotta have the same news. Joining me today is a world
0:31.6	and the host of the Keeping It Real podcast, Jillian Michaels.
0:40.2	Jillian, hello, how are you?
0:41.4	This is my last interview.
0:46.1	I thought I did, I interviewed Callie Means a couple days ago, thought that was my last one before the election.

1:41.7	health advocates, apps, DVDs, books, websites, all in that genre.
1:48.0	And I recently teamed up with Bill Maher's Club Random Studios to take my health podcast and
1:55.3	bring it to video and expand it into other areas of wellness.
