| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to Useful Idiots. I'm Katie Helper. |
| 0:09.0 | I'm Mary Matte. Thanks so much for being here. Our website, as always, is Useful Idiot's |
| 0:13.6 | Podcast.com. Go there to support the show and get bonus content. On this week's episode, |
| 0:20.3 | we have really undisputed number one fan favorite Norman Ficklestin coming back to talk to us about what can you even say anymore about Gaza, all the latest there. |

| 1:30.9 | Democratic Party. So as people may know, Congressman Jerry Connolly of Virginia sadly passed away |
| 1:38.2 | earlier this week at the age of 75 after a multi-month battle with cancer. |
| 1:45.0 | But what is significant, I would say, is that he knew he had terminal cancer. |
