| 0:00.0 | Hello, friends and neighbors. Welcome back to the Bill Press Pod and welcome to this week's |
| 0:11.9 | Reporters Roundtable. Well, with the House and Senate out of town this week, it was a relatively |
| 0:17.3 | quiet week in Washington, but there was still a lot of action, especially on the |
| 0:21.8 | political front, with Donald Trump, right in the middle of all of it. On Trump's advice, |
