All right, let's get into the intro of Episode 110

**SPEAKER_1** (1:10)
Oh, good. Hey, what's up, Columbus?

**Georgia Hardstark** (1:26)
Yes, we haven't gotten one wrong yet.

**Karen Kilgariff** (1:29)
We practice and practice backstage.

**Georgia Hardstark** (1:32)
Where are we?

**Karen Kilgariff** (1:34)
How do you pronounce it?

**Georgia Hardstark** (1:35)
Columbus.
Wow. Hi. What a beautiful theater.

**Karen Kilgariff** (1:44)
Gorgeous theater. Gorgeous.

**Georgia Hardstark** (1:47)
We got a fun fact on the way over here about this theater, that it was a Vaudeville theater, and downstairs in catering was where they had the animals come in for Vaudeville, like all the dogs in their rally costumes and shit.

**Karen Kilgariff** (2:00)
What's funny is we didn't ask what animals. That's Georgia's cartoon of this theater in 1920

**SPEAKER_1** (2:08)
You just wrote it in your head.

**Georgia Hardstark** (2:09)
Poodles in fucking ballet costumes. Poodle Show.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:14)
Poodle Show.

**Karen Kilgariff** (2:17)
That's the most famous ballet of all.
You know it. It's the Sugar Plum Fairy from The Nutcracker.

**Georgia Hardstark** (2:26)
With poodles.

**Karen Kilgariff** (2:28)
I pictured on the animal ramp just like 100 elephants. It's just like these people are amazing. They got all those camels and elephants and rhinoceros out here.

**Georgia Hardstark** (2:40)
In my mind it was poodle doodle doodle doodles.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:44)
Poodle's Time.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:45)
Poodle's Time.

**Karen Kilgariff** (2:47)
Welcome to Poodle's Time everybody. Thank you so much for coming. You bought special tickets to Poodle's Time.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:56)
We appreciate it.

**Georgia Hardstark** (2:57)
It's the official pre-show of the Puppy Bowl.

**Karen Kilgariff** (3:01)
That's right.

**Georgia Hardstark** (3:03)
Who's excited?

**SPEAKER_1** (3:04)
Talking Puppy Bowl. For the Talking Puppy Bowl.

**Karen Kilgariff** (3:06)
We're going to introduce Chris Hardwick. We're all going to come out, talk about what might happen, what happened last year.
Remember when that one drank the water? Fuck. That was the best.

**SPEAKER_6** (3:21)
That was the best.

**Karen Kilgariff** (3:22)
You can see it in your mind again, huh?

**SPEAKER_6** (3:23)
Oh my God.

**Karen Kilgariff** (3:24)
What's the music behind puppies drinking water?

**Georgia Hardstark** (3:27)
Oh, well. Well, they're not drinking out of fucking FBI glasses.

**SPEAKER_5** (3:32)
Oh, shit, Shaw. Right here. Thank you.

**Karen Kilgariff** (3:37)
They stand up and shoot us. Please sit down.
You're not in charge right now, FBI. Jesus. Power tripping. Still standing. Still talking.

**Georgia Hardstark** (3:49)
Let's break this shit. Thank you.

**Karen Kilgariff** (3:54)
Yeah, thanks. Is what we meant to say.
Wow.

**Georgia Hardstark** (4:01)
Can you hear me breathing in this mic? Really hardcore.

**Karen Kilgariff** (4:04)
This sound system is insane because it sounds like the voices are coming from behind me. And that's when you're the one talking, that's kind of upsetting.

**Georgia Hardstark** (4:12)
Oh, that's the ghost. Oh, is that a ghost? That's a ghost.

**Karen Kilgariff** (4:15)
What's the ghost of a dead poodle?

**Georgia Hardstark** (4:19)
The human voice of a ghost of a dead, oh, why are we talking about dead dogs?

**SPEAKER_4** (4:23)
It's fun. It's funny.

**Georgia Hardstark** (4:24)
That's a bummer. It's funny.

**Karen Kilgariff** (4:27)
Oh, did you know what the show is about? I have bad news for you.

**Georgia Hardstark** (4:31)
Oh no, I think security really is coming for those FBI agents. Oh well.

**Karen Kilgariff** (4:36)
Oh, should some, no, no, no. You know what it is? Someone tweeted this. I was eavesdropping.

**Georgia Hardstark** (4:41)
On Twitter.

**Karen Kilgariff** (4:42)
You get your own individual usher at this theatre to walk you to your seat.

**Georgia Hardstark** (4:46)
Each and every person?

**Karen Kilgariff** (4:48)
I mean, they could have been lying, but.

**Georgia Hardstark** (4:52)
Ohio, you got some fucking class going on.

**SPEAKER_1** (4:55)
Balcony's like, we did too.

**Georgia Hardstark** (4:59)
Cause no one knows where they're going.

**Karen Kilgariff** (5:02)
They look at the balcony ticket and they're like, you're on your own.

**Georgia Hardstark** (5:06)
Figure it out.

**Karen Kilgariff** (5:07)
If you want your own individual usher, you got to kick down that cheddar. Never said that word before as money, never.

**Georgia Hardstark** (5:20)
Cheddar as money.

**Karen Kilgariff** (5:21)
Cheddar as money.

**Georgia Hardstark** (5:22)
Karen, I have to tell you guys something. It's really upsetting. Karen tried to steal someone's purse last night.
