| 0:04.0 | I recently appeared on Gavin Newsom's podcast, |
| 0:08.0 | and we decided to post the conversation here, |
| 0:11.0 | as he is the sitting governor of the state of California |
| 0:14.0 | and one of the front runners for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028. |
| 0:19.0 | So this is my convo with Governor of California, Gavin Newsom. |
