I heard nothing of note. Just more corporate speak coming from the Kraken per usual. 😂
My brightness was low cuz it took me a minute to see there were TWO dogs he was petting. lmao 😅😅😅😅
Always listen on Spotify at 1.5X speed so I can get a whole episode in on my commute. But that means when I come to see the videos on YouTube, ya'll sound like you've taken a handful of Valium.
Great job with the Botterill interview. Keep up the good work.
