| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Is This Real Life, a Bravo podcast that relates our favorite shows to our own lives in the world around us. |
| 0:18.5 | I'm your host, Mandy Slutsker. Let's get to it. |
| 0:34.6 | Hi, everyone. I usually start this podcast out by saying, I hope you all had a good week, but for those of |
| 0:40.9 | you based in the U.S., it has been a really, really rough one. As you all know, this past Tuesday, |
| 0:48.0 | 19 school children and two teachers were gone down in Uvalde, Texas. And I know so many of you are parents of |
| 0:58.3 | elementary students. Many of you are teachers yourselves and just like my heart goes out to all of you. |
| 1:05.7 | At this point, it is an act of bravery to send your children to school. |

| 2:26.7 | you know, call your, you know, representatives in your state legislature. You have a representative, |
| 2:33.8 | you have senators, you know, they have phone |
| 2:37.8 | numbers, they have offices all over the state that you live in. Call, bother them, like cause a ruckus, |
| 2:46.7 | write letters to the editor in your local paper about whatever issue it is that you care about. |
