| 0:00.0 | Welcome to this episode of the award-winning Best of the Left podcast, although today we're sharing a sample of this week's episode of our other show, solved. |
| 0:12.0 | Best of Left members get solved early, ad-free, and complete with a members-only backstage segment all via podcast. |
| 0:19.7 | But we're also putting the show out on the Best |
| 0:22.0 | of Left YouTube channel where we're attempting to find a new audience. Consider supporting us |

| 0:31.3 | Best of Left YouTube channel and catching every episode of Solved there. And now here's a few minutes |

| 1:20.0 | White supremacists have some ideas of their own that they think would bring them happiness. |
| 1:25.4 | And we happen to believe that they're wrong about that. So they |
| 1:29.0 | might not like our ideas, but we are going to argue persuasively that we are right anyways and |
