| 0:24.0 | And this, this episode, this bonus episode falls into the category of personal. |
| 0:35.0 | So I'm going to share with you something personal, which I'm not sure if it'd be a good fit on the public podcast. |
| 0:48.0 | And what I'm going to share with you is why I don't drink alcohol and I've never drunk alcohol before. |
