0:00.0 | Hello, you're here for a little quickie with me. Thanks for joining me. If you haven't |
0:07.1 | listened to our episode with Mark Groves, I would recommend that you listen to that first before you hop in on this |
0:14.9 | quickie with me simply because I think I just have so many thoughts after talking to |
