| 0:00.0 | So excited to speak again to Rami Kuri, who is the Distinguished Public Policy Fellow at the American University in Beirut. |
| 0:13.6 | Welcome back to the show, Rami Kuri. |
| 0:16.1 | Thank you. Good to be with you. |
| 0:17.7 | Thank you. There's so much to talk about. Things are changing so quickly. |
