| 0:00.0 | Hey Michael Steel Podcast listeners Michael Steel here with another quick take from the |
| 0:12.5 | Michael Steel Podcast. Check out what's going on right now. |
| 0:17.0 | Welcome back everybody to the Michael Steel Podcast. We here at the beauty shop and we hanging |
| 0:21.4 | out with Mr. Tarrisette and the lady the Queen Bee April Ryan. So nice to have you both |
| 0:29.9 | on cell. I thought I thought this little little daddy from Tim yesterday in |
| 0:37.0 | talking about education was interesting. Let's let's take a listen. I will lead a |
| 0:44.0 | revolution for excellence in our schools. Let's CRT and more ABCs. I will not rest until |
| 0:58.4 | every family has a choice and every parent has a voice giving every child a chance. |

| 2:07.1 | That's my point. That's my point about him playing a role. There's no way that a man who grew up, |
| 2:13.4 | a black man who grew up the way he did in the South, that he does not understand the racial dynamics |
