| 0:03.0 | This is the Power Movement. |
| 0:12.8 | Welcome. |
| 0:14.4 | To the Powell Movement, I'm your host Mike Powell, |
| 0:17.4 | and this week it's another episode with a little brother. |
| 0:21.0 | Last week, we had Bob Sovin, who seemed to not like his brother that much. |
| 0:25.3 | And this week, it's the total opposite. |

| 1:23.5 | The other issue that's starting to be all over the news |
| 1:26.1 | is athletes taking a knee at sporting events. |
| 1:28.9 | I love the fact that this gets people so riled up. I mean, this has nothing to do with the flag. |
