| 0:00.0 | Hey everyone. Welcome to the next level. I'm J.L. here with Tim Miller and sitting in for Sarah |
| 0:10.7 | Longwell, A. B. Stoddard, our newest Bull Walker. A. B, you know, you're a, you're a good-hearted person. So you probably don't think this way but but for me for me personally one of the greatest |
| 0:26.3 | Delicacies of life is watching bad things happen to bad people and Kevin McCarthy, who in fairness to him has been a better |
