Hey, my name's Harrison. I'm an emergency room pediatrician here in Washington, D.C.

I just finished a shift and I'm enjoying a lovely scooter ride home.

It's my daily ritual to listen to the pod during my scoots to and from work.

Don't worry, I stopped to make this timestamp.

And I do recognize there's an irony to working in the ER and having the enthusiasm for

e-scooters that I do. But, oh well, this podcast was recorded at.

105 PM Eastern time on Tuesday, August 22nd of 2023.

Things may have changed by the time you hear this, but I'll still be in love with my job.

Grateful that I get to do what I do and scooting off into the sunset.

Here's the show.

It seemed like it would take some real skill heading non-stop.

I mean, I can't. I certainly want to be listening to the pod, but while he's scooting

I was going to say that made me a little nervous to Frank.

I didn't want to be the dampen enjoyment, but stay safe out there.

So I'm saying I trust you have your good instincts.

I think you trusted his skills.

Hey there, it's the NPR politics podcast.

I must smell it. I cover the White House.

I'm Frank Ordoniaz. I also cover the White House as well as the Trump campaign.

And I'm Dominican Montenora, senior political editor and correspondent.

And tomorrow night, eight Republican presidential candidates will face off in Milwaukee

for the first GOP primary debate of the 2024 election cycle.
