From the transcript

Welcome back to the Situation Room, the geopolitics and conflicts show where the world's gentle slide and anarchy perfectly, consides with Artin's gentle slide into madness when it's everything's fine. But this week, we're not going to be providing you with our usual set of stories on the underreported global topics.

We feel a worth paying attention to instead.

We're going to be answering your questions, maybe not you specifically, there's a lot of you and there's a lot of questions, but we try our best. So, well, thank you to everybody you asked, and especially thank you to the people whose questions we're answering. I apologize if I'm sweaty.
