| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody and welcome back to Revolutionary Left Radio. |
| 0:10.3 | So on today's episode I'm going to give some of my initial thoughts on the results of |
| 0:15.7 | the election here in America. |
| 0:19.1 | But with the full knowledge that this is still a fluid situation, while it looks pretty clear |
