| 0:00.0 | Welcome to another episode of Lurie Breaks It Down, a podcast where we dig deeply to connect the dots on the issues that shape our world. |
| 0:20.3 | I'm Lurie Daniel Favors, author, |
| 0:22.4 | activist, attorney, and host of the Lurie Daniel Favors show on Sirius XM's Urban View, Channel |
| 0:27.4 | 126. Here's today's latest and greatest breakdownable news. Now, wherever you live, |
| 0:33.9 | weather is happening, whether it's happening in extreme forms of climate change, |
