| 0:00.0 | It is my joy to sit down with a friend and one of the best men I have ever ever met. |
| 0:09.0 | David Barton. David is an interesting guy. He is the founder of Wallbuilders, |
| 0:16.0 | which is this great pro-family organization that teaches principles, preserves history, |

| 2:18.5 | I don't even know how we first met, but I think you're probably likely to... |
| 2:24.5 | I can tell you part of that story. And by the way, thank you for the kind words, but it's very much reciprocal as well. |
