| 0:00.0 | Okay, I made it. Sorry I'm late and therefore I don't have the news, the good stuff, all the things that I normally do. But I try to every day. Forgiveness, thank you. We had a great Monday night hang out for about two hours. So thanks to everybody who came to that. You can watch it in the link if you're a subscriber, but I woke up with a terrible headache |
| 0:23.2 | at 4.30 in the morning, which is usually when I wrap up the production of the show, do the news, |
| 0:28.1 | et cetera. And then I came in and my computer was having an issue that I couldn't figure out. And I said, |
| 0:34.5 | this isn't going to be good for anybody to listen to. So you are welcome that I didn't do that to you. |

| 1:33.3 | that starts at about 33 minutes in. |
| 1:35.6 | But of course, you know Jason Johnson from MSNBC, where he's a regular commentator and anchor. |
