| 0:00.0 | Welcome back. It's Eric Erikson here across the United States of America. I am delighted to be here with you as long as my battery holds on this. So if you're just tuning in, let me give you the layland here. I am pre-recording. The hurricane is raging outside. It is, I mean, the reports are coming in and it's very bad. |
| 0:22.5 | Your prayers are appreciated. |
| 0:23.6 | I'm not out of the woods yet. |
| 0:25.2 | But I've got to do local radio from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in Atlanta because of the effects of the storm. |
| 0:31.4 | And it's kind of an all hands on deck at my flagship station where I'm still an employee there as well. |
| 0:36.0 | So I am bringing you all the latest |
| 0:38.9 | for your Friday before I do that. I don't know how the storm's going to play out for me. |
| 0:45.8 | I do know that I am without power and I am recording on a battery. So we'll see how this goes. I'm assuming everything will be okay. |

| 1:22.8 | And I continue to be impressed with him. |
| 1:26.3 | He's one of the few leaders who just continues to impress me as a leader, as someone who is plain spoken and understands evil and understands the nature of evil and how you combat it and push against it and all that sort of stuff. |
| 1:46.2 | So Miele, let's back up. |
| 1:49.9 | Miele came into Argentina promising pain. |
| 1:55.7 | His campaign pitch was the Peronese government had broken the economy and it would be very painful |
| 2:03.6 | to undo it, but he could undo it if they trusted him to fix the economy. Everyone would |
| 2:09.0 | suffer quickly, but it would get over and they would resume their lives and again be the |
| 2:14.8 | greatest economy in South America. He's a free market libertarian who is also Jewish, I believe. |
| 2:21.5 | I think I've read that he's dabbled in Judaism. |
