All right, everybody, welcome back to the All In Interview Show. We're very lucky today to have

a candidate for the governor of California who is extremely unique in a number of ways. First of all,

he's a Republican. And second, he's a Brit. Welcome to the program, Steve Kelton. You've decided

to increase the degree of difficulty in two ways,

but you're polling fantastic. You've got five or six people in the polls. So he's leading the field.

You're leading the field. Obviously, it's going to get narrowed a bit when the Democrats

shiv a couple more people and get them out of the race and then pick their

eventual winner in their cobble whenever that happens when Nancy Pelosi picks was running.

Well, hang on, can I just say just after that great intro where you just tried to kill my chances in just a couple of words? Thanks a lot, Jason. Really appreciate it. Let me add you to you this up.

it's important. Go back to your parents, your mom, how you grew up, and just set the stage for

how you made it out from the way you started, because I think that's important, and then how you

got to the United States and why. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate that. And you're right. We've known each other a long time now. And it's a great joy to be here. By the way, just want to say, it's a great joy to be on a show where I don't have to wear the suit and shirt. And, you know, that's one of the things about running for governor that I'm loving most of it, but dressing up is not the favorite part for me.

So it's great to be with you.

I thought for this show, you know, we've got to get it right.
