| 0:00.0 | Hi, my name is Anne McElheny and welcome to the Anne and Phelham Scoop with just Anne McElheny today. |
| 0:09.2 | Phelham is still recovering from COVID. He's fine, by the way. He's grand, but I think it probably wouldn't be the |
| 0:14.4 | healthiest for us to sit in very close proximity. I don't know if you can get COVID immediately after getting |
| 0:19.7 | COVID, but anyway, we're going to try and cut down on those possibilities. So it's just me today. And it's June. So gosh, how did that all happen? Six months into the year. But lots and lots of stuff in this podcast. And by the way, quite a number of people were in touch about last week's podcast and about the pieces that I quoted from, the pieces of accidental abortion reporting |
| 0:41.4 | from pro-abortion people who accidentally reported on the truth about abortion. |
| 0:48.4 | So I got a lot of very supportive messages and I appreciate them very, very much. |
| 0:52.9 | Thank you so much for all of those. |
| 0:55.0 | But on today's show, we have statistics that confirm what we already knew about why all |

| 1:17.6 | Alec Epstein, who is the author you will all remember of the moral case for fossil fuels, I think |
| 1:23.0 | four or five, six years ago. He has a new book out called Fossil Future. Why Global Human |
| 1:30.8 | Flourishing requires more oil, coal and natural gas, not less. And that's a really great |
| 1:36.3 | interview I did earlier. So I really want you to stick around for that. It's really great. |
| 1:40.7 | And really stick around for the very end of the podcast, because as we wait for the results from Roe v. Wade, |
| 1:48.1 | what we think is going to be the overturning of Roe v. Wade in the Supreme Court, |
| 1:52.7 | Hollywood are determined to do absolutely everything they possibly can to lie and lie and lie again about the issue. |
| 2:05.4 | And it's amazing how they, the contortions they'll go into in order to do that. And we're going to bring an amazing story to you about that |
| 2:09.3 | from a recent television show. And I have a little recipe. Now, I am sort of running solo here, |
