- 0:14Speaker 3: The New York Public Library is planning to celebrate the

- 0:34Speaker 3: it was made, and the beer is being brewed by
- 0:36Speaker 3: a local brewery here, Talia Beer Company. The brewery is
- 0:40Speaker 3: actually making two versions of the beer, one called Washington's Beer,
- 0:43Speaker 3: which will follow Washington's recipe exactly and have a more

- 1:23Speaker 1: pet's anxiety easing powers.
- 1:25Speaker 3: Okay, so you have a cat, I have four. Does
