| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody, I'm Dennis Prager. This is the FireSight Chat number 10,807. |
| 0:06.8 | Not really. What is it about? 140? |
| 0:10.0 | 8. |
| 0:11.0 | 148. And I want to remind you incidentally that, you know, number 17 or number 58 or whatever is just as relevant. |
| 0:21.0 | Take the time to look at the previous ones with all the different questions, my opening comments. |
| 0:27.0 | And of course, I want to welcome back Otto who missed his first FireSight Chat. Well, since he began. |
| 0:36.0 | I don't know. |
| 0:37.0 | No, I don't think he ever missed one. Once he started, I don't know if did he start with number one? |
| 0:42.0 | No. |
| 0:43.0 | No, okay. But once he started, he's never missed one. He missed it because he had surgery last week as I explained to you with the time. |
| 0:52.0 | And it was a bizarre reason, but it is what it is. He ate corn on the cob with the cob. |

| 1:07.0 | Anyway, for whatever reason, the first time in 10 years he ate it, it hurt his intestine. He needed a surgery immediately. |
| 1:14.0 | And he's doing fine. In fact, he's so special. His head was on the other side. |
| 1:21.0 | As soon as we got ready to start, the broadcast, he turned around so you could see him. |
| 1:27.0 | You are the man. It is great to have you back. Otto. Is he reacting at all? Yeah. That's my boy. All right, everybody. |
| 1:39.0 | All is normal with Otto in the picture. |
| 1:46.0 | So, as you know, I just offer some thoughts at the beginning. It's not rehearsed. There's no teleprompter. |
| 1:55.0 | Which, by the way, is risky, obviously, because if you really say what's on your mind and it's spontaneous, anything can happen. |
| 2:04.0 | Which is, however, the beauty. Because that's real life. We speak to each other without teleprompters. |
| 2:13.0 | So, I often go over the topic with Megan. And she tells me what's on especially young people's minds. |
| 2:21.0 | And I guess freedom and equality are big things that I need to talk to you about. Because they're really, really important. |
