| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to Broconomics. Now, in this episode, I wanted to give a special shout |
| 0:27.2 | out to my American critics. But before I do, let me assure you that I am a proper Magatard, |
| 0:34.6 | just like you. I've been on the Maga train since very early on, maybe not the |
| 0:39.5 | escalator or the first debate, because if you remember the first debate in whatever it was, |
| 0:43.1 | was that 2016, 2015, something like that, Armand Donald, he didn't speak much in the first |
| 0:49.8 | debate because he was kind of studying the other guys and he was he was working out how to beat |
| 0:55.0 | them and then he came out swinging in the second debate and I've been on the Maga train since then |
| 1:00.1 | so I like the man I like Maga I like America very much fully on board right with all of this |
| 1:08.5 | stuff however I do think that the Iran stuff is just bloody silly for a whole number of reasons |
| 1:17.1 | that I don't think are being properly considered. |
| 1:20.0 | So I wanted to get my bona fide ease in place. |

| 1:30.0 | that I'm going to explain. And the way I'm framing it like this, right, is because, you know, |
| 1:35.8 | here at Lotus Eater's, not just Lotus Eater's, but a whole bunch of commentators have been |
| 1:40.5 | pouring cold water on this idea. I mean, the most obvious of which is Tucker Carlson, |
| 1:44.8 | but then because he's American, he can kind of get away with it and people, people just call |
| 1:48.5 | him, I don't know, they pretend he's like a Kuwaiti asset or something like that or whatever. |
| 1:54.4 | And a whole bunch of, you know, my American friends in the sort of podcasting world, |
| 2:00.1 | they're all dead against it as well. But again, |
| 2:03.2 | they kind of get away with it. But what I've been noticing is those of us who, as you can tell, |
| 2:08.2 | even though I'm a Magatard, I am British, as you can tell from the attractive pin and |
| 2:13.5 | also the suave and sophisticated accent that I deploy that probably makes you like me quite a lot. |
