Every audio show is adding cameras. You're holding out.
Tegan Cross00:10:50–00:10:58
Someone has to represent the literate.

Podcasts peaked. Video is a fad for people who can't write, and the algorithm will get bored of faces eventually.
Bibi Marsh00:11:24–00:11:32
Your producers agree?
Tegan Cross00:11:34–00:11:44
My producers work for a writer. They knew the deal.

There are three cameras in this studio, Tegan. Three.

The people who can't write called. They want an apology.
Tegan Cross00:41:41–00:41:57
