| 0:05.0 | Hello, this is Dan Levitart. Welcome to South Beach sessions. |
| 0:18.9 | Wanted to do sort of a one-subject South Beach |
| 0:21.5 | session here with somebody that I find to be uncommonly informed on the subject of climate change. |
| 0:28.5 | In a way, it feels like we all should be, but people just run away when they hear that phrase. |
