This is reasonable doubt with your host, Mark Garagas, and Gary Smith.

Well, happy Sunday, Gary. Welcome to the altar of Bard for our Sunday edition, which is

0:15.1

becoming our main edition as of late. There's so much going on during the week that it's

0:22.1

hard, we're hard pressed. And maybe we ought to start reinvigorating the mid weeks because

0:28.9

otherwise we've got too much to fill on Sunday. I've been watching, as you know, this impeachment
