| 0:00.0 | GSK believes innovation starts when you stop to listen. That's why GSK and Veeve Health |
| 0:08.1 | Care have partnered with the HIV community for decades and developed medicines that better |
| 0:13.9 | fit the lives of people living with HIV. That's just one example of how GSK unites science, |
| 0:20.7 | technology, and talent to get ahead of disease together. Visit gsk.com to learn more. |
| 0:27.8 | The following podcast contains explicit language. Hey, I lived in New York City and |
| 0:35.0 | Manhattan all my life. Okay, so you know, my views are a little bit different than if I lived |
| 0:38.9 | in Iowa, perhaps. I am pro-choice in every respect and as far as it goes. I am pro-life. |
| 0:46.0 | Everybody knows I'm pro-life, but you still, I just believe in choice. It has to be some form of |
| 0:50.5 | punishment. For the woman. Yeah. I've been told by some people that was an older line answer. |

| 1:36.7 | race closer? Well, duh. Yes. That's what the press does. Can you say Corey Lewandowski? |
| 1:44.8 | But it's funny because while CNN is sort of the epitome of that tendency, I think Brian |
| 1:50.2 | Stelter, who hosts reliable sources, has been an admirable exception. He's called Trump out, |
| 1:56.1 | particularly on his ridiculous claims that the election is going to be stolen from him. |
| 2:01.0 | Anyhow, when Brian asked me what I thought, I said that the problem was that the usual structure |
| 2:06.1 | of campaign coverage was an apple versus an orange. You know, they're both throats, they're both |
| 2:11.0 | different, take your pick. And the problem was that this one was sort of like an apple versus |
