| 0:13.9 | Hello, Bugleers, I'm Andy Zoltzmann and we are approaching the end of our summer hiatus. |
| 0:18.3 | We'll be back next week with a full Bugle episode to look at everything that's been |
| 0:22.3 | happening in the world during this crazy month. Sadly, our summer hiatus |
| 0:27.1 | coincided with the Tokyo Olympics so we were unable to report exclusively for you |
| 0:32.1 | on all the wondrous athletic action and heartbreaking stadium emptiness that the world has been |
