0:00.0	Hey, deserve listeners. I don't normally do this, but I made a reaction video for YouTube,
0:05.4	and at the end of recording it, I thought it would make a good audio podcast episode for you,
0:10.2	people that are listening on your phones and not watching on YouTube. So a little background
0:15.2	about this video in this audio is that there's a TV show called Nine of Diffiance,
0:21.6	and there's a cast member right now who is a reality TV show, a Russian woman. She's a little
0:28.8	person, and she's dating an American guy. And while the show was running, and there was the normal
0:37.0	drama of a reality TV show, it came out that she had posted some things on Instagram, I believe,
0:43.6	Facebook, you know, on the internet. That were of a racist nature, and she was called out
0:51.9	on the internet, and there was a huge drama around that, and I think she might be fired from the
0:57.9	show. I'm not really quite sure. And while this was happening, I did comment on it during the
1:04.4	reaction videos, but then she released a video apologizing. It's like an hour-long video where she

1:27.8	a reaction video to her apologizing for her racist social media posts. And if you don't know,
1:37.2	actually one of the posts actually addressed was attacking people like me as a half Asian.
1:43.4	So I wanted to get into that. And as I was recording the episode, I thought it'd just be a
1:48.7	short little reaction video, but it ended up being, I think, maybe a two hours long or something,
1:54.4	because she gets into a lot of different things. And there's a lot of things to comment in terms
1:58.4	of how she's apologizing, what she's saying, the implications of all that. And also, how do we,
2:05.4	as receivers of the racism and of the apology, how do we react? Because we're part of this system.
2:12.9	And if we're going to try to make the world a better place, not only do the racists or the people
