Pre-roll transcript:
Before you is an episode of the Full Time Nix podcast. My name is Dawn. My job (self-appointed) is to empower the Nix user. If you're listening on the website, consider listening on a podcast app—they offer fancy features. To new listeners I would recommend starting with a recent episode ...which this might be. I hope you’ll find this episode informative and entertaining.
