| 0:00.0 | Hello, welcome to issue 15 of The Bugle, audio newspaper for a visual world for the |
| 0:24.4 | week beginning Monday the 4th of February 2008. The first ever February edition of The Bugle, |
| 0:29.5 | first of let's hope at least four. I'm Andy Zoltzmann in London and in New York it's John Oliver. |
| 0:36.3 | Hello Bugleers and congratulations you live to see February 2008 and that's more than Einstein |
| 0:42.9 | ever managed and they called him a genius. Turns out that he wasn't good at not dying before February |
| 0:48.1 | 2008. Didn't have a theory for that. Did you Albert? Z. As always with the audio newspaper |

| 1:45.6 | connection has never been there for Schneider. But it's a democratic frenzy in the US and as |
| 1:50.8 | America goes to the ballot box to elect a person they want the option of choosing to elect |
| 1:55.6 | leader of the free world. It's electing a choice. Record turnouts in many states are predicted so |
| 2:00.2 | it seems the idea of democracy rather than reality is most appealing. There's every chance that |
| 2:05.5 | this turnout is going to be bigger than the one for the real election. People like going just |
| 2:09.8 | up to the point of being actively involved in the democratic process and then dodging out of the |
| 2:14.0 | last minute. Is there not a danger though that if Super Tuesday proves decisive in both races |
