- 1:09Speaker 1: did not this year, and almost everyone on our network
- 1:13Speaker 1: took a week off last week, and we did not
- 1:15Speaker 1: because we really desperately wanted to cover the movie New
- 1:18Speaker 1: Year's Eve, a movie that literally no one has ever
- 1:21Speaker 1: requested we do. So that's why we're taking this week off.
- 1:26Speaker 1: We didn't take a week off at all. In twenty,
- 1:28Speaker 1: which is scary. Um, I think we did take one
