Hey, everybody.

0:08.5

Robert Evans here, and I wanted to let you know this is a compilation episode.

0:12.6

So every episode of the week that just happened is here in one convenient and with somewhat less ads package for you to listen to in a long stretch

1:19.3

and journalist with an academic background of memory studies and a particular focus at the

1:23.7

moment on the far right, also the host of the Fire in These Times podcast, which is an excellent podcast. I've been a guest on that one before. Yeah. Elia, welcome to the show.
