| 0:00.0 | You got problems that you either be concerned with, you don't know how you're supposed to earn it or what to do with it or how to keep it. |
| 0:08.0 | You're a freak with a dark shameful secret, but you're not the only one who can teach your ill and financial fears to the blessed sun. |
| 0:16.0 | Now your healing has begun, it's back with running with Gabby. |
| 0:22.0 | Gabby Dunne here, who's ready for an existential crisis brought on by the harsh financial realities of a supposedly sacred cultural institution. |
| 0:30.0 | It wouldn't be bad with money if that wasn't the case. Welcome to the show. |
| 0:36.0 | You guys, something weird happened when I turned 28 last year, and about to be 29. |
| 0:42.0 | And that something is noticing babies. Not having them, just noticing them, being fascinated by them, looking at them in the streets, and on buses. |
| 0:51.0 | Trying to make them laugh. If you can make a baby laugh, that's the most pure audience you'll ever get as a comedian. |

| 1:47.0 | I like them. I don't know. We did a JBU sketch about how I like babies. I know it's very off-brand. |
| 1:52.0 | I used to be a person who would be like, no way, no how. |
