| 0:00.0 | Well, welcome back to the Bill Bennett show. It's the podcast and translates |
| 0:04.7 | Donald Trump. We take a look at the current administration and we address the |
| 0:08.4 | existential threats to America. We are also, I want to say, having, I believe believe what's been talked about for years but rarely happens |
| 0:15.8 | We are actually having a national conversation about race with candor intelligence and goodwill |
| 0:22.0 | at least as much intelligence as I can muster. |
| 0:24.4 | But we're actually having a good conversation. We'll continue that today with Peter Kursinau. |
