| 0:00.0 | I am so over this situation, Peter. I'm unbumble to find something real. You know, like someone |
| 0:07.5 | you can count on, someone who actually cares about what you think. I just want someone |
| 0:12.5 | who's ready for that long-term kind of love. Whether you're looking for your next boyfriend, |
| 0:18.9 | girlfriend, casual date or just someone who truly gets you, it's waiting for you unbumble. |
| 0:25.5 | It's Tuesday, May 13th from Slate, it's the gist I'm Mike Peska. So we're going to do something a little bit different today. |
| 0:39.3 | I know it's only episode seven, but we are tweaking the format for a day. It turned out that you guys really loved and responded to our breakout character, |
| 0:49.4 | your Irkel Fonds are really. So now he'll be in every episode, delighting and know that it's not true at all. We're not going to go that far. |
| 0:55.9 | We're going to have a great conversation. Two high school football coaches who were featured in documentaries, |
| 1:01.9 | the Academy Award-winning documentary from 2011 undefeated and there's a new one out called We Could Be King. |
| 1:07.4 | And it's the first time anyone has ever got these two coaches together to talk about their jobs and their philosophies and to talk to each other. |
| 1:14.0 | It is a longish talk. I give my spiel over to it. You might not think you'll be into two coaches talking about football, |
| 1:21.1 | but remember football is the hook. It's about a lot more than football. And now the Smith College graduate in class of 2014 |
| 1:29.3 | cordially disinvites you. |
| 1:40.2 | As the chief of the International Monetary Fund over the last three years, Christine Lagarde has had to face unprecedented challenges |
| 1:46.8 | in writing the economies of Europe. She is of course the first woman to head the IMF just as she was the first woman to be a finance minister of a G8 nation. |
| 1:55.5 | When you think about it, other than someone like Empress Maria Teresa or one of the Borges, |
| 2:00.1 | she is the most powerful woman in the history of finance. But as head of the IMF, she leads an organization that has been criticized fairly at times, I think, |
| 2:09.4 | for things like strict terms of lending, for obsessing over inflation at the cost to GDP growth in some countries. |
| 2:16.3 | Put aside the IMF for a second, let's talk about Smith College, prestigious women's college and Holyoke, Massachusetts. |
| 2:22.5 | You might think that a female pioneer in one of the most male dominated fields would be celebrated by Smith. |
| 2:26.9 | And that was the idea behind the invitation to have Lagarde speak a graduation on Sunday, |
| 2:31.8 | instead after almost 500 Smith students signed the petition, Lagarde withdrew. |
