| 0:20.3 | You know what that means? I don't know what it means. It means. It's Thursday. Albin, you know what today is? It's Thursday. You know what that means? It means. I don't know what I mean. It means tomorrow's probably Friday. I'd be willing to bet a lot on that. Tomorrow would be Friday. I want to bring a few fun facts Fridays in tomorrow. Okay, we haven't done a lot of fun facts Friday. Things have been so newsy, so crazy, so kooky. We've got to have fun. If you will, that we haven't done a lot of fun facts Friday. So tomorrow we're going to do some fun facts Friday. Now, today, oh, we got to mention this. In a couple of minutes, Alan Dershowitz, Alan D. Buggy D. That's his rap name, Buggy D. A big D. Alan Dershowitz is going to be my guest in this hour. |

| 1:18.5 | But every generation, there's one of those people. |
| 1:22.9 | Alan Dershowitz is that guy, Harvard Law Professor, politically liberal, but liberal in the old school sense, since he's now in his 80s. |
