Hey listener, a quick favor.

We are conducting an audience survey and we'd be really grateful if you could take just a few minutes to respond.

Please visit survey.PRX.org slash after hours to take the survey today.

That's survey.

slash after hours. Thanks.

HBR presents. Hi everyone you're listening to after hours I'm young me I'm me here I'm Felix I'm Rebecca and

thanks everyone for joining us let me start off by saying that we were not planning on

taping today, but the chaotic events in the nation's capital over the past couple of

days compelled us to turn our tape recorders on, Not because we claim to have any kind of special

insight into what's happening. We are not political historians, but we are

friends and we have found that in times like this sometimes it's useful to just

talk to people you know and trust to help process what's going on so that's what

this is this is just an attempt to help each other process the events of the last 24 hours.

Rawi unfortunately couldn't join us because he couldn't move his calendar around, but

I'm grateful the three of you could.

So what I'd like to do is simply go around and ask if you have any

thoughts or reflections you'd like to share about what we've witnessed over the

past couple days. And by the way, we are taping this on Thursday afternoon.

So you're going to have to forgive us if circumstances change significantly between the time we're recording this and the time you're listening to this.
