0:00.0	Okay, this is a true story.
0:02.0	I have a friend who once faked his own death
0:07.0	so he could have more time to watch his favorite TV show.
0:11.0	In my new podcast, Truthless, I'm talking to people about the lies they tell. From forging new identities to taking their love of Game of Thrones a little too far.
0:23.2	From Spotify and the Ringer Podcast Network, I'm Brian Phillips.
0:27.4	Listen to Truthless on Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, I'm Tara Palmary. I'm a senior political correspondent, and this is

1:45.0	Trump's team even told me a few days ago that they were ready to lose Michigan and
1:49.3	possibly even Wisconsin, although they could still win if they lose those states, as long as they win Pennsylvania, and we'll get to that later, why Pennsylvania is driving them.
1:57.0	Rabid, yes, Rabid is the word, even crazy.
