Welcome back to the basement. Welcome back to the basement yard. What are you doing with your fingers? I don't know. I had one of those energy drinks and now I feel like I'm moving faster than ever. Go real fast. Run in your seat really fast. No, run. Run, run, run, run.

0:16

I know that's not how you run. Whoa, dude. What's going on? I got a little lightheaded.

0:24

Please don't go down. You don't think- You passed out doing a fake run during the podcast. That shows how shitty my shape is.

That was the opening. The rest of the episode (84 min) is in the player: every word clickable, with translation, saved words and flashcards.
