| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to another episode of The Fully Charged Podcast. It's not coming |
| 0:15.4 | to you from Vancouver, but it's from Vancouver, if you know what I'm saying, which I'm sure |
| 0:20.6 | you do. Just before we start, this is a very unexpectedly delightful conversation, this |
| 0:28.0 | particular episode is. But just before we start that, I do want to quickly give a lovely |
