| 0:00.0 | Before we get to the interview, I just wanted to give you an update because there's a lot of breaking news going on, which had not happened at the time we recorded the interview. |
| 0:17.1 | And please, stay tuned after this breaking news to hear the interview with Will Lowry and Jessica Blum, which is terrific. |
