今天前面的 Intro 因怕節目太長所以語速較快，以下是我的逐字稿（包括歌詞＾＾），給大家參考囉：）

{Let’s Talk About Sex- Salt-N-Pepa}
Let's talk about sex, baby
Let's talk about you and me
Let's talk about all the good things
And the bad things that may be
Let's talk about sex
Let's talk about sex
Let's talk about sex
Let's talk about sex
Let's talk about sex for now
To the people at home or in the crowd
It keeps coming up anyhow
Don't be coy, avoid, or make void the topic
Cuz that ain't gonna stop it
Now we talk about sex on the radio and video shows
Many will know anything goes
Let's tell it how it is, and how it could be
How it was, and of course, how it should be
Those who think it's dirty, have a choice
Pick up the needle, press pause, or turn the radio off
Will that stop us, Pep? I doubt it
