1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:00,480 Speaker 1: Station. 2 00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:04,920 Speaker 2: Hey forty fifty five, care see the talk station. Happy Monday. 3 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 2: Try to make it so anyway, And I guess gurdir 4 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 2: Lluin's for the gas pump coming up. 5 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:10,119 Speaker 1: Thank you. 6 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 2: Brigham Accown from the Hudson Institute, our energy policy expert, 7 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,200 Speaker 2: joined the program this morning to talk about just that 8 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 2: maybe a little bit more. Brigham account, Welcome back, my friends. 9 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 2: Great having you on this morning. 10 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 1: Hi Brian, thanks great to be with you. 11 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 2: Hudson dot Org is where you find Brigham in the 12 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:25,920 Speaker 2: team at the Hudson Institute. I recommend you do that 13 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 2: all right straight at Horror Moves seems to be the bottleneck. 14 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 2: We got a problem there. It's effectively shut down. While 15 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 2: everything I've read this morning, they've been jamming the GPS 16 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 2: signals for the ships. They've threatened to blow them up. 17 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 2: They actually have attacked three of them. Fog of war's 18 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 2: a little difficult, but clearly with that much oil, like 19 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 2: twenty percent of the daily global consumption goes to that 20 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 2: tiny little stretch it is. And we talked about this 21 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 2: with Brian James a moment ago. Energy prices are going 22 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 2: to go up, but thankfully we ain't. In the Opek 23 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 2: dominant years back in the seventies. We're gonna have a 24 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 2: better opportunity to to keep the supply up to maybe 25 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 2: it won't be as bad. What's your take on this 26 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 2: Brigham account? 27 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Brian, you've you've you've already nailed it. I 28 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: don't even need to say anything. Uh No, in all seriousness, Yeah, 29 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: this straight over moves is not it's functionally disrupted. That 30 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: disruption is being driven by two things. Obviously the risk 31 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: of anti ship missiles and attacks uh from Iran and 32 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: its proxies. But really one of the things we're not 33 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,559 Speaker 1: talking about yet you're gonna hear a lot more about 34 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: today is a lot of this is going to be 35 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: driven by the insurance markets, not navies. Yeah, I read that. 36 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 2: They're they're canceling the insurance policies. 37 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: Effectively, they are they are withdrawing their war risk coverage. 38 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: Think about that. You can get insurance against war for 39 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: the Persian Gulf and what that means is without the 40 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: war risk insurance, ship owners are reluctant to transit, charters 41 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: will not contract, and banks you're not going to finance 42 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 1: these voyages. So hundreds of tankers are either anchored or erotic. Now, 43 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: the good news for America is, as you pointed out, 44 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: we're not dependent on Middle East or Noiland longer, and 45 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: that twenty percent of world volume mainly headed to Asia. Yeah, 46 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: and the number one supplier is China. So they've got 47 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: a bigger problem than we've got right now. And you know, 48 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: we'll see how long this goes on for because as 49 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: you know, there are stockpiles in place. Most places have 50 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: thirty to forty five days supply. Short term prices are 51 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,839 Speaker 1: up about ten percent today. The longer term, we'll see 52 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: how long this lasts. 53 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: Well, you know, the litigation attorney to me that did 54 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 2: a lot of insurance coverage litigation is quick to sort 55 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,679 Speaker 2: of glom onto the Wait a second, it sounds to 56 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 2: me like these insurers of these ships during offering these 57 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 2: wartime policies maybe at a risk of a bad faith lawsuit. 58 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 2: It's like if my insurance company canceled my paid for 59 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 2: and in place fire insurance while a fire was raging 60 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 2: in my home. I could probably see them. 61 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you could. And war risk insurance covers, 62 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: I mean, this is this is crazy stuff, right, covers, 63 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: missile tax drone attacks, mines, terrorism, this creates a market 64 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: driven choke point even without a blockade. If the insurers 65 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: are able to cancel. 66 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 2: Policies, well, it sounds to me like it's probably dollar 67 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 2: for dollar coverage. 68 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: Brig them, Yeah, it is. It's pre paid insurance, I guess, 69 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: but you know, I think you know back to oil 70 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: price outlook, they're elevated based on risk premium right, likely 71 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: trading in the load to mid eighties today, there are 72 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: future is around seventy five to seventy eight. But what 73 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: we'll call the markets is restoration of the war risk 74 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: insurance or a clear protection of shipping lanes like the 75 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: United States did back during the Desert Storm War. When 76 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: I was there, we used the US flag tankers and 77 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: US warship. That may be a little bit different deal today. 78 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: So far, the US and it's coalition partners have hit 79 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: more than a thousand targets. The idea now that they 80 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: have complete air supremacy is to knock out every thing 81 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: that can launch something. 82 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 2: Well, given that China is so heavily relying on the 83 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 2: Iranian oil supply as with other Asian nations, doesn't this 84 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 2: provide an incentive for them to not try to protract 85 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 2: this in other words, help the Iranians fend off this attack, 86 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 2: because if we get a stable Iran, in spite of 87 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,679 Speaker 2: the fact they're no longer a thorn in the western side, 88 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 2: you know, militarily long term objective, it will free up 89 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 2: their oil and drive the prices down. 90 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: It will and you know, what some people have pointed 91 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: to is a little bit of a three D chess 92 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: game going on. China has a lot of those critical 93 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 1: minerals we've talked about on the program, but they are 94 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: so highly reliant seventy plus percent on external oil sources. 95 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: Venezuela gone, Iran possibly gone. What's happening is their sources 96 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: of oil are being removed from the global market. That's 97 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: not by accident, that's intentional. So China doesn't want to 98 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: see the regime fail, and so I think one of 99 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 1: the things they'll be doing is try to b a 100 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: peace deal. Hey guys, let's stop this. The more and 101 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 1: longer this goes on and the more targets Iran hits, 102 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: including into the Gulf neighbors, the less appetite there is 103 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: to let this regime continue. 104 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 2: Well in timing is rather interesting, and some are suggesting 105 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: that this was an intentional timing thing. We launched the 106 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: attack on Iran after we kind of shored things up 107 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 2: in Venezuela, keeping their supply of oil on and actually 108 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 2: maybe improving the supply of oil out of Venezuela. The 109 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 2: very corrupt and incompetent nation it well, it probably still is, 110 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 2: but certainly wasn't the Maduro regime. 111 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: Well, that's true. We'll have to see how Venzuela goes. 112 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: I think you know what the current administration has learned 113 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: is this notion of nation building hasn't gone so well. 114 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: It's on the ground not gone so well. So you 115 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 1: know the strategy they're applying and we'll see if it 116 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: works is eliminate the threat and move on. And if 117 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: you resume the threat, we'll come back and do it 118 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: to you again. 119 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 2: Brig McCown, I'm want to bring it back to ask 120 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 2: you about what's going on here in the state of Ohio. 121 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 2: Headline leaked GEO bill would allow for electric companies to 122 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 2: own kr cdtalk station. Bryan Thomas with Hudson Institute find 123 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,679 Speaker 2: them online at Hudson dot org. Brigham account our energy 124 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 2: policy expert. He does know what he's talking about. I 125 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 2: think all my listeners remember First Energy House Bill six 126 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 2: that resulted in the end of Larry Householder, the trial 127 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 2: of executives involved in it. Kind of like a pay 128 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 2: to play scheme. Here, you bail me out with a 129 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: billion dollars because I have a struggling nuclear or have 130 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 2: struggling nuclear facilities, and we'll give you fat bank and response. 131 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 2: So that's still unfolding and playing out. But I guess, 132 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 2: first off, as we pivot over to this new described 133 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 2: as leaked gop bill, why and how is it that 134 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 2: First Energy was struggling with their nuclear facilities and even 135 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 2: needed a bailout. I thought nuclear power was good and 136 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,039 Speaker 2: it worked well, But is there something going on behind 137 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 2: the scenes, like maybe too many regulations or something associated 138 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 2: with using nuclear power? 139 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: Brigham? Yeah, the capital costs up front for nuclear power 140 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: is enormous, and that's something a current administration and secretary 141 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: right is trying to get under control of. The last reactor, 142 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: of course, that went online down in Georgia, the Vocal reactor, 143 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: I think, cost twice as much as it was expected 144 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: to cost from the beginning. That's frankly because of the 145 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: permitting process and not yes, although government permitting not necessarily 146 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: environmental permitting, although that can play an issue, But the 147 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: National Regulatory Commission the NRC, seems to have spent more 148 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: time avoiding licensing nuclear reactors during the history of its 149 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: lifetime than it has actually getting them done. Plus, the 150 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: industry has some fault here because there are not two 151 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: reactors in America that are the same. Right, It's like 152 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: guys build the same car, license it, and then build 153 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: it again. Not that hard. 154 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 2: Well, let me ask you a really quick sort of 155 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 2: tongue in cheet question, Briga Mcowan. Does the military have 156 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 2: to go through the same regulatory process that people out 157 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 2: here in the real world go through? Because are my 158 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 2: submarine or friend curubage MIC's out there? He was on 159 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 2: a nuclear powered sub That thing had been in action 160 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 2: for like decks. That's what happens with nuclear powered subs 161 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: and aircraft carries in alike. The things last for like 162 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: twenty to forty years, and they've been used since late 163 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 2: nineteen fifties. They have no problem with them, Brigham, how 164 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 2: come we can't have some of those? 165 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: Well, they don't. In the new versions of those reactors 166 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: may not even need to be refueled. Ever, during the 167 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: entire fifty plus year lifespan. Yeah, you're right, and we're 168 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: talking about small modular reactors. Now, that's what the Navy's 169 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: done since, frankly the nineteen fifties. And no, it is 170 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: a slightly differencing different program. The Bureau of Naval Reactors 171 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: in the Navy does talk closely with the DOE, but 172 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: the designs are simpler, they're consistent. We don't have eighty 173 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: nine designs. We have far fewer, so it's much easier 174 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: to do. But you know, Brian, you're really getting back 175 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: to Diltman questions. Why is the GOP wanting to return 176 00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: and move us away from? Quite frankly, you know, we 177 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: moved away from utility companies being able to own their 178 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: own generation and allowing regulated utilities to own their own 179 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 1: generation inside a competitive market. It distorts wholesale pricing. It's 180 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: frankly not very capitalistic. And to your point, that twenty 181 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: nineteen seemed yesterday, and I think they're gonna have some 182 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: issues here. 183 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 2: Oh they are. And I got a kick out of 184 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: this shocking. No one has any understanding of how legislation 185 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 2: is written. Local wcpo's Morgan trial seems like appalled at 186 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 2: the idea that this was the particular legislation we're talking 187 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 2: about here was co written by an energy company. That's 188 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 2: what they do. I mean, our elected officials don't know 189 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 2: jack squat about energy, so they have to rely on 190 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: folks in the no lobbyists for the energy companies. Right 191 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 2: stuff handed to the legislators. They look at it, they 192 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 2: have it explained to them. It's pre prepared and if 193 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 2: it looks appealing and as it's written, it seems appealing 194 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 2: and it's good for the Ohioans, then that's how you 195 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 2: get something written. If you left it to any one 196 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 2: of our elected officials to literally write something on their own, 197 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 2: nothing would get done. 198 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, if I may in our closing minutes. The 199 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,719 Speaker 1: reason it distorts the market is you have two scenarios. One, 200 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: you have the utility companies that own all their stuff. 201 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: That's in several states other states like us, the electric 202 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: company buys power from a generator, a different company that 203 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: is privately backed, privately funded, hence private risk. When you 204 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: allow the utility company to own their own generation, now 205 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 1: that becomes a public risk and we're all going to 206 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: pay for it. 207 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 2: Is that why our energy bills are going up? Brigham account, 208 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 2: You just have to answer that final question for a 209 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 2: part company. Mine have gone through the roof. And is 210 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 2: it just the price of energy? Is this the transmission 211 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 2: lines that they're busily rebuilding or extending. Why are we 212 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 2: all paying so much more on our energy bills? 213 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's There are numerous factors, but the bottom line 214 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: is the energy company can just pass costs along to you. 215 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: There's no incentive not to do that. 216 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 2: And the old days, they used to build it and 217 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 2: then recoup the cost after it was built. Right, Yes, 218 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 2: that's true, not the way it is anymore. The sorry 219 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 2: we have you, Brigham Acount to explain all these things 220 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 2: to us. We've got to get you back on the 221 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 2: show for a full hour in studio to talk broader 222 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 2: energy energy policy, and maybe we'll do that again real soon. Brigham. 223 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 2: I appreciate your willingness to come on the program and 224 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 2: talk with my listeners and. 225 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: Me absolutely, And you've just give me a couple of 226 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: ideas for charged conversation. 227 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 2: So glad you mention
