0:01.3	Ladies and gentlemen, Chris Van Vlee.
0:09.8	Ooh, yeah, welcome back to another one on Insight.
0:14.3	I'm CVV, Chris Van Vlee.
0:15.8	Thank you for being here, and thank you for making this.

1:29.3	specifically handling a lot of the women's matches lately. So any of the epic women's matches
