| 0:00.0 | This is John Batchel. Good evening. The show begins tonight with the Taliban and Kabul. |
| 0:07.9 | Bill Rajo comments on four years later. Russia is seeking access to the rare earths in Afghanistan. |
| 0:17.3 | China is already at Bagam. The Russians are now the first major power to recognize the Taliban as sovereign. |
| 0:26.8 | Other question marks can be raised, such as in the U.K., a revelation of a list of Afghans who helped the U.K. |
