| 1:02.6 | Uh, hello everybody. It's Monday, March 16th, and this is your Chapo. On today's episode, it's just Felix and I, we're going to duo it up for you. And to kick things off, let's focus on the big news. What's going on in the world today? The war. The war with Iran. Now, Felix, I don't know about you. I'm not an osint guy. I'm not a military expert. I just read and watch the news. And I try to draw my conclusions based on that. Yeah, I'm not smarter enough to like look at a map. Iran is next to Pakistan, which some say is the Muslim India. |
| 1:14.6 | I don't know about you, but like it's, I think it is, I think it is difficult to, I don't know, make a fair assessment of how the war is going because, you know, both sides are very self-motivated in the sort of news that they |

| 2:08.9 | So I think that was probably the last American president to talk truthfully. |
| 2:13.3 | But my point is... |

| 2:23.5 | Yeah, they beamed it out. |
| 2:24.4 | Should I do it? |
