• 08:56 ☕ Conclusion and Personal Disclosure

  • The speaker dismisses the idea of coffee being an acrylamide risk, emphasizing the low levels in coffee.

  • Acknowledges a potential bias due to personal connections, introducing a disclosure about his father's invention of a coffee mug.

I got your back.

Who, what, where.

As he's blowing up balloons, partner says, "Do you think Mom was changed by prison?"
