Summary

Note: At the 9:27-9:28 mark, I inadvertently misspoke. Blagojevich did not say "I was f***ed by Donald Trump" but rather "and now he's [Trump] getting F***ED like me." Thank you to the person in the comments who picked this up. Prior to posting my clip, I had tried to find the tweet in question but had been looking at the wrong Twitter handle. Once I identified the correct Twitter handle (see below), I found the quote in question.

0:00.0	Hi everybody this is Scott Sad I wasn't planning on doing a sad truth clip at
0:06.7	what is it 932 p.m. I'd settled in after a very long day working on the second round of the galley proofs for my forthcoming book,
0:17.6	The Sad Truth About Happiness.
0:18.8	I hope you have pre-ordered your copy.
0:21.2	If you haven't, please do so right away.
