| 0:00.0 | Hi and welcome back to Undisclosed toward justice. Rabia here, and I'm here, as always, |
| 0:26.7 | with my colleague, Colin Miller. Hi, Colin. Hey, Robbie, how's it going? It's going well. It's going as well as |
| 0:31.6 | as it can go, considering a lot of circumstances, but, you know, we focus on our work and let the world do its thing. |
| 0:39.9 | I'm excited this week to have on a guest who is going to bring a perspective that honestly we rarely get folks who listen to our show in between seasons. |
