| 0:00.0 | This is Sid and Friends in the morning. |
| 0:09.1 | 77 Wab, B.C. |
| 0:14.8 | I mean, if you're going to put somebody on Mount Rushmore, let's get Sid Rosenberg on Mount Rushmore. |
| 0:19.6 | Turning overseas now to the nuclear talks between the U.S. and Iran. |
| 0:23.7 | Negotiators from both sides meeting briefly on Saturday. |
| 0:26.8 | ABC's Marcus Moore joins us with the details on what the White House is calling positive and constructive talks. |
