| 0:00.0 | Hi there. It is Eric Erikson here. It is my show and you are more than welcome to call in and be a part of it. If you want, happy to talk to you. The phone number is 877-97-973-7-4-25. At the bottom of this hour, I am, that would be 235-ish, if you're listening live. I am going to talk to Wes Anderson. Wes Anderson is a pollster, a very good pollster, |
| 0:22.8 | who has been doing polling around the country, |
| 0:25.8 | including where I am in Georgia about Herschel Walker and the Republicans, |
| 0:28.9 | but also nationally, checking with him on Virginia, |

| 1:24.1 | I would remind you the NBC News Wall Street Journal poll shows that more Americans |
| 1:32.4 | believe the Republicans would be better able to handle national security than the Democrats. |
| 1:38.6 | They've got something like an 18 to 20 point lead on the issue of national security. |
| 1:42.7 | And now there's this. |
| 1:45.6 | This is from Dimitri Sevastopolow from the Financial Times. U.S. allies are lobbying Joe Biden |
| 1:53.5 | not to change American policy on the use of nuclear weapons. Amid concerned the president is |
| 2:00.5 | considering a no-first-use |
| 2:02.7 | declaration that could undermine long-established deterrent strategies aimed at Russia and China. |
