0:00.0	Hey, Michael Langer here. As you'll hear in a minute, this week's episode of On the Media is the
0:04.8	culmination of three and a half years of reporting. Reporting that made a difference,
0:10.5	reporting that our listeners have helped support with their donations. Thank you to every single one
0:16.8	of you that has contributed to our show. If you're listening now and you know that you haven't
0:21.5	shipped in, now is a great time to do it. Go to on the media.org to donate or text OTM to 70101.
0:31.5	It's really just that easy. Over the next hour, you'll hear reporting that is the hallmark of public
0:37.1	radio. Careful and thorough and asking questions you want answers to. And if you're wondering how
0:44.0	we spend your money, let me reassure you that this is a bare bones operation over here. No first class

1:46.8	situation because you're at the top of your curfew. And all of a sudden, they're saying something
1:52.2	that could get you killed. Plus, I spoke to Tasha Adams, the ex-wife of Stuart Rhodes, who was just
1:58.8	sentenced to 18 years in prison this week about her life with the founder of a far-right militia group.
2:04.8	I hope start this. I hope start this. It turned into that and people died that day. Would this
2:10.3	have happened? Had I not supported Stuart? It's all coming up after this.
2:18.0	From WNYC in New York, this is on the media. I'm Brooklid Stone. Our show this week is the final
