| 0:07.0 | We're focused on the niche details of modern warfare and underreported conflict all across the world. |
| 0:13.6 | Popular Front is completely independent. |
| 0:16.8 | Today we're speaking to Tristan Lee. |
| 0:19.6 | He is a researcher and a data scientist. He has put together an |
| 0:24.8 | incredibly useful tool. I almost couldn't believe someone hadn't already done it yet. |
| 0:29.5 | Tristan is very much a part of the Popular Front Network and he kind of brought it to my attention |
| 0:34.1 | because he knows I'm very interested in looking into the whole Epstein scandal. |

| 1:55.0 | So I'm hoping this becomes a resource for researchers and journalists so they can more effectively go through and find leads |
| 2:05.4 | in the files themselves because there's still so much more in those files that hasn't been |
