| 0:00.0 | Episode 385. |
| 0:04.5 | 385 is the area code covering Salt Lake City, Utah. |
| 0:06.9 | In 1985, the Breakfast Club premiered. |
| 0:09.2 | What to a pregnant teen and the fetus have in common? |
| 0:14.1 | They're both thinking, shit, my mom's going to kill me. |
| 0:35.3 | Go, go, go, go. Welcome to the 385th episode of the Prop Gapod. What's happening? |
| 0:41.3 | It's almost the end of February, which means we've completed or nearly completed a month of resist and unsubscribe. The idea was over the course of a month to try and put a dent in big tech, subscription growth, and send a |
