| 0:00.0 | Well, howdy there internet people? It's Bo again. So today we are going to talk about |
| 0:04.9 | Biden and Iran and a whole bunch of questions that have come in about a deal to get some people back. |
| 0:15.0 | And we're going to go through it, |
| 0:17.0 | and we're going to talk about why it is occurring the way it is. |
| 0:21.0 | The questions, they're all pretty similar because the coverage has been, it's |
