0:00.0	Hi, and welcome back to Making the Argument. We have a special episode for you today with a special guest.
0:06.5	But before I introduce her, I want to talk about a poll that recently come out that we discussed in a previous episode where it showed that high school boys in the United States are actually more conservative than they've been in about 35, almost 40 years. What's just as
0:22.8	interesting than that fact is that high school girls are more liberal than they've been in
0:27.7	the last 35 to 40 years. And so obviously there's something of a disconnect because as Christian,
0:32.6	our political prognosticator also points out one of the most just compelling pieces of analysis that you

1:36.6	government, but also just what is the proper role of government? So with all of that said,
1:42.3	Catalina, thank you very much for being on today.
1:46.4	Thanks for having me on, Nick. Appreciate it.
1:50.7	Catalina, give us a little bit, just get the audience a little bit about your background, you know, folks, you know, growing up and whatever
1:55.4	compelled you to run for Congress. I mean, you're a successful
1:59.5	entrepreneur, you know, you're intelligent, you have
2:02.4	integrity. What would make you want to go to Congress? Great question. It all comes down to,
