| 0:00.0 | Good afternoon, everybody, on this Monday, September 22nd, 2025. I've got all your stories for your |
| 0:07.0 | rush hour ride home coming to you from outside the country. You might be able to tell from the |
| 0:12.6 | sun in my eyes. I'm in a tropical location. I'll give you clues to where that might be at the end of |
| 0:18.2 | this episode. So stick around and I'll share with you my mobile |
| 0:21.1 | studio setup. It's actually quite amazing. But in this episode, we're going to talk about |
| 0:25.5 | Candice Owens defending Jimmy Kimmel. That's right. You might be surprised if you think everything's |

| 1:29.5 | this. And Trump's response, we don't know. Maybe he would have changed his mind. So we're seeing a lot of |
| 1:35.4 | that grifting taking place, and we need to note it, call it out, share the receipts, and just remind |
| 1:40.4 | all of us who's worthy to really receive your attention when it comes to news coverage. |
| 1:47.3 | A lot of people sharing their true colors. Afterwards, I'm going to share the border czar, |
