| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to the Lincoln Project. I'm your host, Reed Gaelin. The Senate trial for |
| 0:13.6 | Donald Trump's second impeachment is in full effect, and I don't think we'll be able |
| 0:17.2 | to get through this episode without saying at least a word or two on the matter. |
| 0:21.0 | But before we do that, I want to tell you a little bit about Lincoln Project Television, |
| 0:24.6 | as we call it, LPTV. Last summer before the two presidential conventions, we decided, |
| 0:31.0 | you know, why wouldn't we have a TV show where we would give our sort of unvarnished opinions |
| 0:36.1 | on what we were seeing of both Joe Biden's convention and Donald Trump's convention? And |

| 1:25.0 | Facebook and YouTube. Lisa, Maya, thanks for joining me. |
| 1:29.2 | Hi, Rita. It's great to be here. Thanks for having us. |
| 1:32.3 | So Lisa, can you just give us a few minutes on who you are a little bit about your background |
| 1:36.2 | and then Maya from you as well? And then we'll talk about the show. |
| 1:39.8 | I live in Vermont. I'm a New England native, and I now serve as Chair of the Vermont Commission |
