- 23:56streams.
- 23:56And
- 23:57I
- 23:57know,
- 23:57because
- 23:57I've
- 23:58done
- 23:58this
- 23:58with

- 24:05And
- 24:05so.
- 24:06And
- 24:06then
- 24:06when

- 24:28do
- 24:28better.
- 24:29But
- 24:30I
- 24:30think
- 24:30that
- 24:30the

- 24:35opportunity,
- 24:36which
- 24:36is
- 24:37why
- 24:37I
- 24:37think
- 24:37it's
- 24:37so
- 24:38important
- 24:38we're
- 24:38having
- 24:38this
