A sap. So here's a question. Have you ever wondered why lift is spelled with a Y instead of an I? Well, John Zimmer wasn't really trying to grab attention when he named the company, he was just trying to solve a problem which you will hear about in this episode, which first ran last February, and it's a really great one, so hope you enjoy it. Oh. One of the kind of funny things we had to figure out was how to quickly to the college campus. And so

One of our early purchases was A frog in beaver costume. That we uh put on I I went to Cornell. I was actually going to Cornell on a recruiting trip for Lehman.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is 1 credit.

We already have this episode, so unlocking it is cheap and permanent: the full transcript, segment and word-level timestamps, and .txt, .srt, .vtt and word-level JSON downloads, as many times as you like, forever.

10 free credits is 10 episodes like this one a month. Episodes nobody has transcribed yet cost their length in hours, because we have to actually transcribe them.
