[0:00] So, yeah.
[0:09] Ray, where, since we're going, you know, on the foreign policy line, my radio, I want it to go for something, so I'm not going for Saturday morning.
[0:25] So, you know, the final thing has to be closed.
[0:26] So, on Sunday morning, for Ray, I'm going to respond to it.
[0:27] Now, in the foreign policy line,
[0:28] And I'm thinking here of an area where .
[0:50] I think the material on the foreign policy stuff is very good in here.
[0:52] I wonder if we couldn't perhaps .
[0:53] Having in mind the fact that probably got the building
[1:09] Up to that point, we've got another version up at a point in time.
[1:27] And of course, going through how it all comes about.
[1:28] Now, the first paragraph, another version, is that possibly on the stage, it might get too loud.
[1:39] But I think you might take a look at the real world, and having in mind that it should be in the other species.
[2:05] Now, on the other hand, you might tell us good and all, but what should we do about that?
[2:06] I'm just thinking of whether this is material.
[2:07] Now, there's stuff about the defense department and so forth.
[2:10] But I'm just thinking if everybody hears you about it.
[2:40] Yeah, well that's right, that's right.
[3:00] And also the fight with the priest preceding paragraph is very strong.
[3:09] I really think that what you might do is perhaps put that out.
[3:31] I mean, that's a question we can forge a relationship, a network relationship.
[3:36] I think that might work.
[3:38] I'm trying to get this to about 100 words.
[3:56] No, no, no, nothing to the speech, but I'm in order for what they're going to follow up with the documentary.
[4:03] I'm pretty good.
[4:03] I don't want to have it sliced too much.
[4:12] 2,800.
[4:30] 2,800.
[4:32] You think so?
[4:32] A little longer.
[4:32] I don't think so.
[4:33] A little longer.
[4:34] OK. Well, that's all.
[4:37] I'm working a couple of things out of it.
[4:38] I mean, I'm very modest.
[4:38] So here.
[4:39] I don't think the other, I think it's good I wanted a foreign policy speech, but I'm not sure that, or if you feel strongly about it, you know what I mean?
[5:09] What I meant is,
[5:37] You and I know that this is absolutely true, that this is a narrative that I hate, that I grow out of, that I'm acting against, that I hate each other, and each other's friends probably are.
[5:56] It's something that, but I think it could well go any other way.
[5:57] I mean, what I'm getting at is that I think that the people, unless I think through it, unfortunately, that we're in a relationship, and I think it's strange for us to take the profit out of war.
[6:08] or you think if you like this, you have something that feels wrong about it, you can add something to it.
[6:28] It's very good.
[6:28] All the people love it.
[6:29] It's very realistic, that's what I'm talking about.
[6:30] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[6:31] But just to that point, I have made a lot of money.
[6:32] I like to believe that.
[6:32] I made a couple of them for the economic stuff.
[6:33] Okay, yeah.
[6:41] Yeah.
[6:42] Well, as soon as I manage this, I'll let you come over.
[6:47] Okay.
[6:48] Bye.
