00:00 - 00:00 Josh

Hey, and welcome to the podcast. I'm Josh and there's Chuck and Jerry's here too, timing us, telling us to hurry up, scowling at us even, which makes this another average episode of Stuff You Should Know. She said, get this in 45 minutes on the nose. No more, no less. And then she went and walked out of the room holding a pillow.

00:00 - 00:00 Chuck

Was that me or Jerry? That was Jerry. Okay. I'm usually the timekeeper.

00:00 - 00:00 Josh

Are you? I never noticed. With your new swatch?

00:00 - 00:00 Chuck

Yeah. No, I just feel like I'm the one that's like 45 minutes and you're like, no, let's make it three hours.

00:00 - 00:00 Josh

I don't like three hour podcasts, but I also don't like living under the clock, which is why I probably would not have personally liked Frederick Winslow Taylor.
