Hey, everybody. Welcome to another episode of the Bucksexten show.

Very pleased to be joined by first time on this program.

Uh, Lailani Dowding, she is a UK based commentator.

You see her on GB news.

Her Twitter game is fierce.

She's also formerly, uh, from the real housewives of Cheshire, which I hope I am pronouncing correctly.

Lailani, thank you very much for being here with us.

Appreciate it.

Thank you for having me on there.

So I, I first became aware of your commentary, uh, your, your punditry during COVID when many of us were locked away.

I don't know where you were in the UK during it.

I was in New York City in Midtown in the middle of the abject lunacy.

I saw the hospital ship floating pot, floating by my window, literally saw it as it was going up the Hudson,

because I was living in Midtown Manhattan and everything was, you know, locked down as the end of the world.

And then there were some of us who were saying, Hey, guys, this is a really crazy idea.

This whole lockdown thing, right?

And you were very early in that.

What's it like now as you look around the UK?

I wanted to fast forward to the current moment when you look around and all these people who did all this stuff.

Are any of them sorry?

Do any of them come up to you and say you were right?

Like, how is it from your perspective?
