We'll be listening to the rest of lecture 1 and sections A-B of lecture 2 (about 1 hour) and discussing it at the meeting so you won't need to bring your own, but I suggest you try to listen to it before the meetup, since you're likely to catch something on a second listening that you missed on a first.
