| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the show, everybody. |
| 0:08.7 | We continue to cover the explosion in egg prices. |
| 0:13.6 | One of the foremost and most important and prominent promises that the current Trump-Vance administration made during the campaign was that |
| 0:23.1 | grocery prices would go down on day one, which was January 20th, by the way, in case anybody's |
| 0:29.0 | keeping track, that egg prices would go down on day one. |
| 0:33.9 | And the opposite has taken place. |

| 1:47.6 | Egg prices are up once again, 768 a dozen, up more than 25% under Donald Trump. |
| 1:57.9 | It hasn't even been one month yet. |
