| 0:00.0 | There's so much news we need to talk about right now, so buckle up, hit that like button. |
| 0:04.6 | And the first thing we're jumping into is what happened last night, because going into it, |
| 0:08.2 | there were huge expectation. |
| 0:09.8 | I think the red wave that's coming is going to be like the elevator door is opening up |
| 0:13.3 | in the shining. |
| 0:13.9 | It's not going to be an elevator. |
| 0:14.9 | It's going to look more like deep impact, the tsunami at the end but colored red. |
| 0:18.7 | I'm talking about 100 seats. I'm talking about when in South Texas, the Rio Grande Valley, |
