Welcome to advisory opinions. I'm Sarah Isger. That's David French. David, we have a lot to get through.

0:24.2

I want to start with a little bit of sausage making so that people understand how we approach what we're going to cover on the show, especially as frankly, there's so much to cover and we're having to do more picking and choosing.

0:36.9
