0:00.0	You're listening to the Love Over Addiction Podcast. Okay guys I just have to tell you I had to record that intro like four times and right before I started recording today I was literally
0:26.5	like quiet so we record these podcasts a little in advance just so we make sure that we get everything to you on time because
0:37.1	we really, really try very hard to run a tight and orderly ship.
