| 0:07.4 | The Wright Report. |
| 0:16.3 | Hey, good day to you, ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to The Right Report, your daily news podcast. |
| 0:22.4 | I've got five briefs for you this morning that are shaping America and the world. |
| 0:27.1 | First up, the U.S. federal government shutdown enters week two this morning, and it is causing pain for workers, military families, and our economy, too. |
