0:00.0	Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at New East.
0:12.1	Hey everyone, I'm Megan Kelly. Welcome to the Megan Kelly show and happy Tuesday. We have so much news to get to today, a plane crash in Toronto, CBS News versus free speech and much, much more.
0:23.0	But we want to begin by telling you about an announcement we have here at the show.
0:28.3	We've talked in the past about how my producers will put together packets on each of the guest segments we do.
0:33.2	That helps me prepare, helps me bring you all the well-researched facts.
0:36.5	Of course, I do my own
0:37.5	reading as well on top of that. Those packets come every night. And in the morning,
0:43.3	my producers will send me a short sort of, you know, note with whatever happened overnight

0:53.5	I'm going to be bringing the AM update to all of you.

1:27.7	show, just so I know, like, what I need to know going into the day. And that made sense to me.
1:33.1	And I actually thought that would be a service. And I'm not going to lie, it does kind of interrupt
1:38.6	my downtime, for sure. Like, I will either going to do these late at night or very, very early in the
1:44.8	morning. Um, but I really thought that's a genuine service that we can provide to the audience.
1:50.0	So we're doing it. It's 15 minutes. We have a great team putting this together and, um, it'll be just
