0:13.9 | Hey guys, welcome back to the show and thank you so much for tuning in. Today we're going to be talking about the idea that black on black crime isn't just a myth. |
0:16.5 | It's actually a malicious lie spread by white supremacist. |
0:20.9 | Then in the UK, a new set of government policies aims to combat the obesity |
0:25.1 | epidemic but at least some obese people say that these policies do nothing |
