| 0:00.0 | Today's 10-minute walk is helping both of us remain fitness consistent. |
| 0:07.7 | Hi, I'm Dave. Let's go for a walk. |
| 0:10.3 | I've been doing this podcast now for more than three years, and I think this is the only time this has ever happened. |
| 0:17.2 | I am walking, and I just checked my phone for what time is sunrise and it's right now. |
| 0:25.6 | Literally right now and I'm in a parking lot, walking across a parking lot and I'm looking east where the sun is rising and I can confidently say that no one is going to be painting the sunrise or taking a picture of the sunrise and posting it online and having people go, ooh, ah, because there are more clouds than not in the sky. |
| 1:03.0 | There are a few breaks in the clouds. |
| 1:04.6 | So maybe as the sun comes over the horizon in those cloud breaks, It'll start looking interesting, but right now it's just, it's just pretty gray. |

| 2:08.6 | The watch will buzz and I'll look down and it'll tell me to take a walk. |
| 2:13.6 | You've been sitting for a while. Take a walk. And the default setting is 50 minutes. |
| 2:20.6 | I've been sitting for 50 minutes in, I think the first 50 minutes of an hour, it'll, it'll buzz |
| 2:28.8 | and say, get up, take a walk. This has happened while I've been driving it has happened when |
| 2:37.7 | Abe and I have been out at a restaurant either just the two of us or with friends |
| 2:43.3 | we've been there for 50 minutes and my watch buzzes you've been sitting for a while |
