So what should we do 47 00:02:50,857 --> 00:02:54,057 Speaker 1: about Ukraine? The situation is playing out in that country 48 00:02:54,137 --> 00:02:59,297 Speaker 1: as I had anticipated weeks ago. Russia's offensive northward from Crimea, 49 00:02:59,417 --> 00:03:03,057 Speaker 1: southward from Belarus, and then west from the Donbass region. 50 00:03:03,697 --> 00:03:08,337 Speaker 1: This is a three pronged movement to try to cut 51 00:03:08,377 --> 00:03:12,617 Speaker 1: the country effectively in half and cut off Ukrainian cities 52 00:03:12,697 --> 00:03:16,537 Speaker 1: and the forces to defend them from resupply. So this 53 00:03:16,617 --> 00:03:19,417 Speaker 1: is looking like it's going to be exactly where I 54 00:03:19,457 --> 00:03:21,417 Speaker 1: thought it would weeks ago. Whenever it's like, oh, the 55 00:03:21,457 --> 00:03:23,177 Speaker 1: Ukrainians are going to beat the Russians and said no, 56 00:03:23,217 --> 00:03:25,657 Speaker 1: they're going to cut the country in half and have negotiations. 57 00:03:26,297 --> 00:03:32,177 Speaker 1: That is the situation, and that is the reality as 58 00:03:32,217 --> 00:03:35,057 Speaker 1: far as we can see from what's going on inside 59 00:03:35,257 --> 00:03:40,217 Speaker 1: of that country. And here's a situation we're going to 60 00:03:40,257 --> 00:03:42,937 Speaker 1: have to deal with, how do we end the conflict 61 00:03:42,977 --> 00:03:48,337 Speaker 1: if we insist on a state that will not actually endure, 62 00:03:48,657 --> 00:03:52,297 Speaker 1: if we insist on a state of affairs that cannot continue. 63 00:03:52,937 --> 00:03:56,697 Speaker 1: Here is US ambassador to the UN saying, the UN 64 00:03:56,777 --> 00:04:00,697 Speaker 1: can't say if the US would recognize CRIMEA if that 65 00:04:00,817 --> 00:04:04,337 Speaker 1: was actually formally part of peace talks. Here, I can't 66 00:04:04,417 --> 00:04:07,777 Speaker 1: say that at the moment, we certainly have not recognized 67 00:04:07,937 --> 00:04:13,737 Speaker 1: the independent dope US regions that the Russians just declared 68 00:04:13,817 --> 00:04:19,497 Speaker 1: as independent. But I can't preview how we will respond 69 00:04:19,617 --> 00:04:23,737 Speaker 1: to a negotiated settlement that the Ukrainians come up with 70 00:04:23,777 --> 00:04:26,617 Speaker 1: the Russians to save the lives of their own people. 71 00:04:27,217 --> 00:04:31,137 Speaker 1: What is the alternative to this? What is the alternative 72 00:04:31,177 --> 00:04:34,097 Speaker 1: to a situation in which Russia gets some concession. It's 73 00:04:34,137 --> 00:04:39,017 Speaker 1: continued bloodshed and warfare. Because the Russians have plenty in reserve, 74 00:04:39,057 --> 00:04:41,817 Speaker 1: the Russians can keep going here. The Ukrainians are watching 75 00:04:41,817 --> 00:04:45,457 Speaker 1: their cities get destroyed, and so we want this to 76 00:04:45,537 --> 00:04:47,417 Speaker 1: end as quickly as possible. We want an end to 77 00:04:47,497 --> 00:04:51,057 Speaker 1: the conflict. There is no future that I can see 78 00:04:51,177 --> 00:04:54,017 Speaker 1: in which you do not have CRIMEA and Dawn Bass 79 00:04:54,857 --> 00:04:59,697 Speaker 1: as officially part of the Russian Federation. Maybe they'll give 80 00:04:59,737 --> 00:05:04,017 Speaker 1: back the area that they have taken through invasion around Kiev. 81 00:05:04,897 --> 00:05:09,257 Speaker 1: But otherwise, what we're going to have sanctions on Russia forever. 82 00:05:09,297 --> 00:05:13,097 Speaker 1: We're gonna live with this specter, decades long specter of 83 00:05:13,177 --> 00:05:16,857 Speaker 1: a Russian nuclear exchange because we refuse to bring Russia 84 00:05:16,937 --> 00:05:20,577 Speaker 1: back into the international community. There's there's what feels and 85 00:05:20,737 --> 00:05:23,857 Speaker 1: sounds good for people not in the conflict right now 86 00:05:23,857 --> 00:05:26,497 Speaker 1: on the outside, and then there's what is reality, and 87 00:05:26,577 --> 00:05:29,497 Speaker 1: they are not the same thing. I think that's very 88 00:05:29,537 --> 00:05:32,537 Speaker 1: important to recognize as we move through this. And I 89 00:05:32,577 --> 00:05:36,857 Speaker 1: mentioned you at the very top here. How should Canada respond? 90 00:05:36,897 --> 00:05:38,617 Speaker 1: This is a poll that came out of the weekend, 91 00:05:39,297 --> 00:05:45,297 Speaker 1: an ekos eCos poll whatever from the Mini from the 92 00:05:45,337 --> 00:05:48,137 Speaker 1: Toronto Star. I think it is one of those Canadian papers. 93 00:05:48,777 --> 00:05:55,097 Speaker 1: How should Canada respond to Ukraine invasion? By vaccination status? Now, 94 00:05:55,177 --> 00:06:00,297 Speaker 1: why should vaccination status have anything to do with whether 95 00:06:00,417 --> 00:06:03,577 Speaker 1: or not you think we should or sorry Canada, but 96 00:06:03,697 --> 00:06:07,777 Speaker 1: close enough, Canada should do more in Ukraine? Right that 97 00:06:07,777 --> 00:06:10,577 Speaker 1: that doesn't hole that, that doesn't make any sense. Oh, 98 00:06:10,617 --> 00:06:13,537 Speaker 1: because what this is really giving you is a snapshot 99 00:06:14,377 --> 00:06:19,497 Speaker 1: of who believes state media, which is officially what they 100 00:06:19,537 --> 00:06:21,577 Speaker 1: have in Canada and pretty much what they have in 101 00:06:21,577 --> 00:06:24,457 Speaker 1: this country under the Biden regime too, Who believes state 102 00:06:24,537 --> 00:06:30,097 Speaker 1: media regime mouthpieces in the news media, and who can 103 00:06:30,137 --> 00:06:36,537 Speaker 1: be most easily pushed by emotion into taking very extreme 104 00:06:36,657 --> 00:06:40,377 Speaker 1: positions on matters of foreign policy that don't actually affect 105 00:06:40,377 --> 00:06:45,297 Speaker 1: the individuals in Canada or the US. How should Canada 106 00:06:45,377 --> 00:06:51,177 Speaker 1: respond to the Ukraine invasion? Vaccinated versus unvaccinated if you 107 00:06:51,177 --> 00:06:55,737 Speaker 1: have received three or more shots of the vaccine, so 108 00:06:55,857 --> 00:07:01,417 Speaker 1: you're boosted or beyond. Eighty six percent want even tougher 109 00:07:01,457 --> 00:07:07,577 Speaker 1: economic sanctions on Russia. Eighty five percent, want Russian assets, oligarchs, 110 00:07:08,977 --> 00:07:14,137 Speaker 1: Russian oligarchs, sets seized, cutting off all oil from Russia 111 00:07:14,217 --> 00:07:18,457 Speaker 1: eighty one percent. Sending more military equipment to Ukraine eighty 112 00:07:18,497 --> 00:07:23,017 Speaker 1: two percent, Providing additional loans and non military a to 113 00:07:23,137 --> 00:07:27,457 Speaker 1: Ukraine seventy eight percent, Providing Ukraine with fighter jets fifty 114 00:07:27,497 --> 00:07:33,257 Speaker 1: two percent, Dispatching military forces to Ukraine thirty percent. So 115 00:07:33,297 --> 00:07:35,137 Speaker 1: what third of them are like, let's go, let's go 116 00:07:35,177 --> 00:07:38,137 Speaker 1: for war with Russia. And that's that's straight up, that's 117 00:07:38,177 --> 00:07:41,337 Speaker 1: military intervention in an act of combat zone. Now we 118 00:07:41,377 --> 00:07:44,697 Speaker 1: are a combatant that is or Canada close enough, that 119 00:07:44,857 --> 00:07:48,257 Speaker 1: is war with Russia. He say, okay, buck Well, how 120 00:07:48,257 --> 00:07:51,217 Speaker 1: do the unvaccinated view these issues? And this is fascinating? 121 00:07:51,817 --> 00:07:56,497 Speaker 1: Impose tougher economic sanctions on Russia thirteen percent, seize Russian 122 00:07:56,497 --> 00:08:00,657 Speaker 1: oligarch's assets thirteen percent, cut off oil twenty one percent, 123 00:08:01,217 --> 00:08:05,657 Speaker 1: send additional military eighteen, Provide additional loans fifteen, provide ukrainin 124 00:08:05,697 --> 00:08:10,377 Speaker 1: fighter jets fifteen, dispatching military forces to Ukraine eleven percent, 125 00:08:11,017 --> 00:08:15,697 Speaker 1: and do nothing of the above fifty two. So isn't 126 00:08:15,737 --> 00:08:20,337 Speaker 1: it fascinating to see that? People in And I'm sure 127 00:08:20,417 --> 00:08:25,577 Speaker 1: this would be pretty similar in America too, The unvaccinated 128 00:08:25,617 --> 00:08:31,817 Speaker 1: are somehow much less desirous of a military intervention by 129 00:08:31,857 --> 00:08:35,497 Speaker 1: the Canadian armed forces in Ukraine than those who are 130 00:08:35,497 --> 00:08:40,777 Speaker 1: already boosted. H Why is there such a big correlation here? 131 00:08:40,817 --> 00:08:42,937 Speaker 1: What does one have to do with the other. Well, because, 132 00:08:42,977 --> 00:08:47,417 Speaker 1: as we know, the vaccine apparatus, the regime of get 133 00:08:47,417 --> 00:08:51,897 Speaker 1: the shot or else, relied very heavily on state media, 134 00:08:52,057 --> 00:08:57,417 Speaker 1: relied very heavily on its control of communication in order 135 00:08:57,457 --> 00:08:59,857 Speaker 1: to silence descent and get people to do things that 136 00:08:59,897 --> 00:09:05,497 Speaker 1: now we recognize we're completely unjustifiable, baseless, and wrong. You 137 00:09:05,537 --> 00:09:07,337 Speaker 1: can also get people to think whatever you want on 138 00:09:07,377 --> 00:09:10,497 Speaker 1: foreign policy. If you can mobilize people to get they 139 00:09:10,537 --> 00:09:14,297 Speaker 1: don't need or else and for them to be supportive 140 00:09:14,337 --> 00:09:18,657 Speaker 1: of it, yay boosters, you can get them to think, yeah, 141 00:09:18,777 --> 00:09:21,617 Speaker 1: we've always been at war with Russia and Ukraine. We've 142 00:09:21,657 --> 00:09:24,097 Speaker 1: never not been at war with Russia and Ukraine. Catching 143 00:09:24,097 --> 00:09:28,457 Speaker 1: the orwell vibes here, when really this needs to be 144 00:09:29,097 --> 00:09:32,337 Speaker 1: a negotiated settlement brought to a conclusion as quickly as possible. 145 00:09:33,177 --> 00:09:35,257 Speaker 1: This idea that is being pushed in the West that 146 00:09:35,257 --> 00:09:37,497 Speaker 1: the glorious Ukrainian resistance, if only we give them a 147 00:09:37,537 --> 00:09:40,257 Speaker 1: little bit more, is going to defeat the Russian military 148 00:09:40,457 --> 00:09:45,897 Speaker 1: is in my assessment, fantasy and dangerous. But people who 149 00:09:45,977 --> 00:09:47,817 Speaker 1: have believed everything they were told about the vaccine, and 150 00:09:47,817 --> 00:09:50,337 Speaker 1: they believe everything you're told about Ukraine too. You're noticing this, 151 00:09:50,417 --> 00:09:53,937 Speaker 1: You're noticing the crossover. Can you say that a man 152 00:09:54,057 --> 00:09:56,297 Speaker 1: is a man on social media anymore? No, you cannot, 153 00:09:56,977 --> 00:09:59,497 Speaker 1: not unless you want to lose your account, Not unless 154 00:09:59,497 --> 00:10:02,657 Speaker 1: you want to lose your access to a important digital 155 00:10:02,697 --> 00:10:06,137 Speaker 1: town square. We'll get into that in a second Twitter 156 00:10:06,257 --> 00:10:11,777 Speaker 1: banning for now the Babylon b and what it tells 157 00:10:11,817 --> 00:10:14,057 Speaker 1: us about our future.

What terrible thing have 177 00:11:20,137 --> 00:11:25,337 Speaker 1: they done that has resulted in this? Well, they just 178 00:11:25,377 --> 00:11:30,737 Speaker 1: spoke the simple truth. Babylon Be referred to Rachel Levine, 179 00:11:30,777 --> 00:11:34,937 Speaker 1: the Health and what HHS or whatever it is, admiral. 180 00:11:36,217 --> 00:11:40,497 Speaker 1: Apparently HHS has admirals. The Babylon Bee did a story 181 00:11:41,017 --> 00:11:46,537 Speaker 1: naming Rachel Levine the transgender BIDE Administration official man of 182 00:11:46,577 --> 00:11:51,937 Speaker 1: the Year. Twitter has now said it will restore the 183 00:11:52,017 --> 00:11:56,497 Speaker 1: account if the Babylon b after they suspended it. Obviously, yeah, 184 00:11:56,537 --> 00:12:00,657 Speaker 1: it's Department of Health and Human Services Assistant Secretary Rachel Levine. 185 00:12:01,777 --> 00:12:05,417 Speaker 1: Babylon b says it will restore the account if the 186 00:12:05,497 --> 00:12:10,297 Speaker 1: Bee deletes the tweet. The problem with that is there's 187 00:12:10,337 --> 00:12:15,177 Speaker 1: nothing wrong with the tweet. The tweet is accurate. That 188 00:12:15,377 --> 00:12:18,057 Speaker 1: it is upsetting to people who like to live in 189 00:12:18,097 --> 00:12:22,057 Speaker 1: a fantasy world, that like to live in the unreality 190 00:12:22,177 --> 00:12:26,857 Speaker 1: of gender is a social construct, No, eat is not. Obviously, 191 00:12:26,977 --> 00:12:29,577 Speaker 1: the people say this to you are pathetic too. I 192 00:12:29,617 --> 00:12:31,217 Speaker 1: mean the ones in the media that are pushing this 193 00:12:31,337 --> 00:12:35,057 Speaker 1: narrative all the time. It's just a social constructman. Really, really, 194 00:12:35,057 --> 00:12:37,537 Speaker 1: you're a bigot. Four years ago, all these same people 195 00:12:37,577 --> 00:12:39,177 Speaker 1: would have said, oh, no, of course we won't have 196 00:12:39,217 --> 00:12:41,337 Speaker 1: you know, men and women's sports. That doesn't make any 197 00:12:41,337 --> 00:12:44,457 Speaker 1: sense now that you're a bigot. Just like the people 198 00:12:44,497 --> 00:12:46,737 Speaker 1: that get the three shots and want us to invade Ukraine. 199 00:12:47,137 --> 00:12:51,577 Speaker 1: Whatever the apparatus tells them, they pairt whatever they think 200 00:12:51,617 --> 00:12:54,097 Speaker 1: puts them on the side of the good smart people 201 00:12:54,737 --> 00:12:57,337 Speaker 1: they go along with. They have no capability to think 202 00:12:57,377 --> 00:13:01,617 Speaker 1: for themselves, to decipher fact from fiction on their own. 203 00:13:02,217 --> 00:13:04,497 Speaker 1: They're just a part of the herd, and it's all 204 00:13:04,537 --> 00:13:07,057 Speaker 1: the same to them. As long they're safe and warm 205 00:13:07,177 --> 00:13:11,697 Speaker 1: and fed, it's all. It's all they care about. So 206 00:13:12,257 --> 00:13:19,897 Speaker 1: we have this tweet delete or not situation underway here 207 00:13:20,017 --> 00:13:25,657 Speaker 1: to delete or not to delete and Seth Dillon the 208 00:13:25,657 --> 00:13:29,457 Speaker 1: Babylon Bee says that he won't do it because the 209 00:13:29,457 --> 00:13:31,817 Speaker 1: Babylon Bees Man of the Year is Rachel Levine. That's 210 00:13:31,817 --> 00:13:38,457 Speaker 1: what they've said the Twitter Twitter censors have decided that 211 00:13:38,497 --> 00:13:40,657 Speaker 1: you're not allowed to say that Rachel Levine is a man. 212 00:13:40,777 --> 00:13:44,257 Speaker 1: This is a fact. Rachel Levine is free to change 213 00:13:44,297 --> 00:13:46,497 Speaker 1: his name, he is free to do any number of things, 214 00:13:47,177 --> 00:13:50,177 Speaker 1: but you cannot change reality just because you feel like it, 215 00:13:50,257 --> 00:13:53,217 Speaker 1: or because your emotions dictated as such. And this is 216 00:13:53,217 --> 00:13:57,337 Speaker 1: a parody site. It does satire, and this satire bites. 217 00:13:57,577 --> 00:14:01,257 Speaker 1: This satire hits home too much for them, so they 218 00:14:01,257 --> 00:14:04,977 Speaker 1: are demanding. They are demanding the inversion of or the 219 00:14:05,057 --> 00:14:11,057 Speaker 1: rejection of reality in this instance, that Rachel Levine is 220 00:14:11,097 --> 00:14:12,857 Speaker 1: not a man. Rachel Levine is a man. Rachel Levine 221 00:14:12,857 --> 00:14:15,137 Speaker 1: has been a man until this year, I believe, or 222 00:14:15,137 --> 00:14:17,497 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. So this is a person 223 00:14:17,537 --> 00:14:21,217 Speaker 1: who is now middle aged and you've only ever heard 224 00:14:21,217 --> 00:14:24,897 Speaker 1: of because he is transgender. And we're to believe if 225 00:14:24,897 --> 00:14:28,177 Speaker 1: you say anything that is wrong about this individual, you're 226 00:14:28,257 --> 00:14:30,937 Speaker 1: a or you refuse to go along with the storyline here, 227 00:14:30,977 --> 00:14:34,257 Speaker 1: you're a bad person.

Senator John Barrosso pointing out here 249 00:15:51,457 --> 00:15:54,137 Speaker 1: that Biden cannot hide from the fact that he is, 250 00:15:54,137 --> 00:15:58,257 Speaker 1: in fact, the high high gas price president. Joe Biden 251 00:15:58,337 --> 00:16:02,177 Speaker 1: can't hide from the fact that he is the president 252 00:16:02,217 --> 00:16:05,937 Speaker 1: of high gas prices, and they're looking for anyone to blame, 253 00:16:06,537 --> 00:16:10,537 Speaker 1: whether it's Putin, whether it's Republicans, whether it's the energy companies, 254 00:16:10,577 --> 00:16:14,417 Speaker 1: whether it's COVID. The Democrats have a very big problem 255 00:16:14,537 --> 00:16:19,177 Speaker 1: with forty year high inflation, highest gas prices ever. When 256 00:16:19,257 --> 00:16:21,497 Speaker 1: Joe Biden came into office, it was two dollars and 257 00:16:21,577 --> 00:16:26,057 Speaker 1: thirty eight cents a gallon for gasoline. American families paid 258 00:16:26,057 --> 00:16:29,817 Speaker 1: a thousand dollars more george for energy last year than 259 00:16:29,857 --> 00:16:33,297 Speaker 1: the year before, and on polling last week, seventy percent 260 00:16:33,337 --> 00:16:38,257 Speaker 1: of Americans say more American oil and gas and less 261 00:16:38,297 --> 00:16:44,457 Speaker 1: emphasis on climate. The climate emphasis is the lunacy that 262 00:16:44,497 --> 00:16:49,817 Speaker 1: makes everything more difficult, expensive and problematic for us on 263 00:16:49,857 --> 00:16:53,577 Speaker 1: the energy front. That's why they're always making the wrong decisions, 264 00:16:53,577 --> 00:16:57,177 Speaker 1: even obvious decisions, they make in the wrong direction because 265 00:16:57,177 --> 00:17:00,417 Speaker 1: they believe in this other thing. We're not trying to 266 00:17:00,457 --> 00:17:04,537 Speaker 1: achieve the same goal, which is energy independence for America, 267 00:17:04,737 --> 00:17:09,697 Speaker 1: low price of energy, a booming economy and lots of prosperity. No, 268 00:17:10,137 --> 00:17:13,617 Speaker 1: they want to save the planet by lowering climate change. 269 00:17:14,097 --> 00:17:17,697 Speaker 1: That's their most important goal, which is why going into 270 00:17:17,697 --> 00:17:20,377 Speaker 1: this midterm they got a problem. And this is the 271 00:17:20,377 --> 00:17:23,857 Speaker 1: Bloomberg opinion piece that addresses it in some way. As 272 00:17:23,937 --> 00:17:27,697 Speaker 1: I've said, take the bus peasant or go get a tesla. 273 00:17:27,777 --> 00:17:32,417 Speaker 1: Peasant is not a compelling midterm pitch for Democrats right now, 274 00:17:32,457 --> 00:17:35,657 Speaker 1: that's probably not going to work out very well. Bloomberg 275 00:17:35,657 --> 00:17:37,497 Speaker 1: opinion piece. I should check out who wrote it. It It 276 00:17:37,537 --> 00:17:40,217 Speaker 1: doesn't even matter. It's amazingly they published it. Inflation stings 277 00:17:40,297 --> 00:17:44,337 Speaker 1: most if you earn less than three hundred thousand dollars. Yeah, no, 278 00:17:45,057 --> 00:17:50,177 Speaker 1: you know what. Here's how to deal. Don't take the bus, 279 00:17:51,297 --> 00:17:56,617 Speaker 1: don't buy in bulk, try lentils instead of meat. And 280 00:17:56,777 --> 00:18:00,137 Speaker 1: nobody said this would be fun. Take the bus and 281 00:18:00,177 --> 00:18:04,777 Speaker 1: eat some lentils, peasants. That is a winning political message 282 00:18:04,777 --> 00:18:08,697 Speaker 1: because who wants a delicious cheeseburger maybe with some bacon 283 00:18:08,777 --> 00:18:11,377 Speaker 1: on it when you can have a nice patty of 284 00:18:11,577 --> 00:18:16,537 Speaker 1: lentils to save a dime or so, take the bus 285 00:18:16,537 --> 00:18:19,217 Speaker 1: and eat your lentils peasant. Plus, don't buy in bulk golls. 286 00:18:19,217 --> 00:18:21,697 Speaker 1: It doesn't make sense because the price is going to 287 00:18:21,817 --> 00:18:25,377 Speaker 1: go up with inflation. Prices aren't going down, so buying 288 00:18:25,377 --> 00:18:28,857 Speaker 1: in bulk allows you to get the discount of bulk buying. 289 00:18:29,297 --> 00:18:33,377 Speaker 1: Plus you avoid the inflationary increases that you'll see in 290 00:18:33,377 --> 00:18:37,177 Speaker 1: a month, three months, etc. So this is bad advice 291 00:18:37,297 --> 00:18:40,937 Speaker 1: across the board, but it is hilarious that they're saying, 292 00:18:41,137 --> 00:18:46,217 Speaker 1: this is this is like when the boomers blew up 293 00:18:46,217 --> 00:18:50,377 Speaker 1: the economy so that they could package mortgages and sell 294 00:18:50,457 --> 00:18:52,097 Speaker 1: them on Wall Street and everything else. You know, the 295 00:18:52,097 --> 00:18:54,817 Speaker 1: Wall Street Boomers, And then they turn around after almost 296 00:18:54,817 --> 00:18:57,617 Speaker 1: melting down the entire global economy. Well, maybe the millennials 297 00:18:57,617 --> 00:19:00,537 Speaker 1: should make their own coffee. Maybe you should stop drinking 298 00:19:00,537 --> 00:19:04,137 Speaker 1: those four dollars lattes. I don't think the four dollars 299 00:19:04,177 --> 00:19:07,497 Speaker 1: lattes were what almost destroyed the entire global economy. I'm 300 00:19:07,537 --> 00:19:12,937 Speaker 1: pretty sure it was the commoditizing packaging and reckless risk 301 00:19:12,977 --> 00:19:19,337 Speaker 1: selling of trillions and trillions of dollars of mortgages. Yeah, 302 00:19:19,377 --> 00:19:24,737 Speaker 1: that was probably bad, bad idea, but nonetheless, here we are. 303 00:19:24,977 --> 00:19:27,977 Speaker 1: Thanks so much, team for tuning in today. Appreciate you 304 00:19:28,137 --> 00:19:31,377 Speaker 1: listening to The Buck Sexton Show podcast. As always, I'll 305 00:19:31,417 --> 00:19:33,337 Speaker 1: be back with you tomorrow.
