0:00.0	Hey everyone it's Rima so this is our 10th season of this is uncomfortable which is a pretty wild milestone like I truly cannot believe that it's been five years since we first launched this show and you know as we're working on this new season we're
0:13.8	trying to take some time to reflect. We're actually preparing an anniversary
