| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Schim this. President Biden just submitted his self-review and while he's |
| 0:06.3 | giving himself some A's, we'll give you his real report card for his first 100 days |
| 0:10.8 | in office. Also on the show, we're breaking down the newly released census data and the |
| 0:16.3 | fight between two tech giants. |
| 0:18.5 | Hint, if you're seeing pop-ups on your iPhone this week, you've got a front row seat. |
| 0:23.4 | Later, we've got the latest on India's battle with COVID and what the rest of the world |
| 0:27.9 | is doing to help. We also spoke to an expert about combating vaccine hesitancy here in the |

| 1:28.8 | Biden himself has tried to own his first 100 days narrative, including during a joint |
| 1:34.0 | address to Congress this week where he touted some of his accomplishments. Now, after just 100 days, |
| 1:49.7 | I can report to the nation. America is on the move again. The economy created more than 1,300,000 |
| 1:53.3 | new jobs in 100 days. And also gave some hints about what he's planning. |
| 1:58.4 | We need to ensure greater equity and opportunity for women. And while we're doing this, |
