Do they just keep going with what they have? How do you decide? (27:20) Review: Father of the Bride. (33:10) LIV Golf is making its move. We have another golfer defecting.

0:37.7	We've been building to this since December 21, where every day it's lighter for a little
0:42.6	bit longer, and it builds to the crescendo of today, and now every day starting tomorrow

0:53.6	Since the cycle of life, it's the cycle of the year.

1:03.8	not Hanukkah.
1:04.8	That's sort of about eight days of presence.
1:07.6	People use a day to take stock.
