00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 5: unpack it and looking for the survivor narrative. A lot

25
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 5: of what we do is counter narrative, like our podcast

26
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 5: is a.

27
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 4: Giant counter narrative. Today, got beat the low is a

28
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 4: little bit stressful. We are talking about Fake Tina's aka

00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 2: Our infamous audio quality, or lack thereof, found its way

35
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 2: into your homes and headphones.

36
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 3: We had a review on Apple Podcasts that we really

37
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 3: appreciate and love and cherish, but it was also hilarious

38
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 3: to have read this review or a listener said, just

39
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 3: point blank, you know great content, the sound quality is terrible,

40
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 3: even when they were in a studio.

41
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: Our listeners, or locomotives as we like to call you,

42
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,040

43
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,600

Speaker 1: audio verse.

48
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,160

49
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 2: online a millennial love story, and we followed each other

50
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 2: on Twitter and Instagram four years.

51
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 1: We were both born and raised in La, but we

52
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: didn't meet in person until twenty sixteen.

53
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 2: After being friends for a while, Viosa texted me one

54
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: day and she asked me if I wanted to start

55
00:02:59,160 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 2: a podcast.

56
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 1: Since then, we've taken Loka Dora all over the country.

57
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:04,919
