70% of people

01:08.233 --> 01:10.433 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
believe that that especially

01:10.433 --> 01:11.700 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
in cases of rape and incest,

01:11.700 --> 01:13.133 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
the choice should exist.

01:13.133 --> 01:14.266 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
To abortion, exceptions

01:14.266 --> 01:15.966 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
stand a chance.

01:15.966 --> 01:16.733 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
There's

01:16.833 --> 01:17.333 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
greater uncertainty

01:17.333 --> 01:19.000 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%

01:26.733 --> 01:27.966 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
that's been thriving

01:27.966 --> 01:30.033 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
and is going on for far longer

01:30.033 --> 01:32.100 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
before you even touched it.

01:47.800 --> 01:48.400 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
At the center of a fierce

01:49.933 --> 01:51.400 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%

That's right.

01:52.266 --> 01:52.966 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
And Andre, the court is expected

01:52.966 --> 01:54.533 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
to make a decision

01:54.533 --> 01:55.100 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
before midnight tonight

01:59.833 --> 02:00.600 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%

in the U.S..

02:02.500 --> 02:03.466 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Some of the restrictions

include blocking patients

02:04.866 --> 02:06.600 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%

03:50.466 --> 03:52.333 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
And I want to begin with

03:52.333 --> 03:54.466 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
looking at these exceptions

03:54.466 --> 03:56.266 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
proposed by the governor.

03:56.266 --> 03:58.366 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
Is there room at the table

03:58.366 --> 03:59.800 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
for these two exceptions,

03:59.800 --> 04:01.233 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
rape and incest?

04:01.233 --> 04:02.133 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Let me begin with you.

04:02.133 --> 04:03.566 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
You know, I think that the

04:03.566 --> 04:04.166 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
the voice of the Louisiana

04:04.166 --> 04:06.866 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
citizens spoke.

04:07.033 --> 04:07.633 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
They spoke loud and clear

04:07.633 --> 04:08.633 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
in terms

04:08.633 --> 04:09.133 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
of having a total ban

04:09.133 --> 04:11.133 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
on abortion.

04:11.433 --> 04:13.900 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
We firmly believe that no matter

04:13.900 --> 04:15.633 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
the circumstances surrounding

04:15.633 --> 04:16.866 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
a person's conception,

04:16.866 --> 04:17.466 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
that every life has value

04:17.466 --> 04:19.300 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
in every every

04:19.566 --> 04:20.966 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
every human being

04:20.966 --> 04:22.100 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
should have the opportunity

04:22.100 --> 04:23.700 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
to live their position.

04:23.700 --> 04:24.033 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
Well, recent

04:24.033 --> 04:26.433 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
polling on this issue

04:26.433 --> 04:26.800 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
by well-known

04:26.800 --> 04:29.366 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
Louisiana pollsters,

04:29.900 --> 04:30.600 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
one as recently

04:30.600 --> 04:31.866 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
as last month, indicates

04:31.866 --> 04:33.533 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
that 70%

04:33.533 --> 04:35.700 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
of Louisiana citizens agree

04:35.700 --> 04:37.133 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that there should be exceptions

04:37.133 --> 04:38.300 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
as to an abortion ban

04:38.300 --> 04:40.433 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
in cases of rape and incest,

04:40.666 --> 04:42.300 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
which is just a 3% under

04:42.300 --> 04:44.466 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
the 73% of people that agree.

04:44.466 --> 04:45.166 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
There should also be exceptions

04:45.166 --> 04:46.800 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
that currently exist

04:46.800 --> 04:47.266 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
to preserve the life

04:47.266 --> 04:49.000 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
and the health of the mother.

04:49.000 --> 04:50.066 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
And I think

04:50.133 --> 04:50.900 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
Miss Wicker is

04:50.900 --> 04:52.166 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
100% correct

04:52.166 --> 04:53.633 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that Louisiana citizens value

04:53.633 --> 04:54.000 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
the dignity

04:54.000 --> 04:56.300 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
of every life in this state.

04:56.500 --> 04:57.633 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
And I think that that public

04:57.633 --> 05:00.333 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
opinion actually reflects that.

05:00.333 --> 05:02.100 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
They believe that a 13 year old

05:02.100 --> 05:03.966 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
who maybe is raped

05:03.966 --> 05:04.466 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
or has a pregnancy,

05:04.466 --> 05:06.000 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
that's a case of incest,

05:06.000 --> 05:06.500 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
they value her life

05:06.500 --> 05:07.766 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
and they agree

05:07.766 --> 05:09.033 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that she should not be forced

05:09.033 --> 05:10.400 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
to carry her baby to term.

05:11.333 --> 05:12.533 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Now, let me ask you this.

05:12.533 --> 05:13.666 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
As it stands now,

05:13.666 --> 05:14.266 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
the exceptions are rather

05:14.266 --> 05:16.333 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
limited

05:16.333 --> 05:17.500 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
to save the pregnant

05:17.500 --> 05:18.700 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
person's life.

05:18.700 --> 05:20.600 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
The mother, if there's serious

05:20.600 --> 05:22.333 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
risk to her life.

05:22.333 --> 05:22.566 align:left position:37.5% line:79.33% size:52.5%
Also,

05:22.566 --> 05:24.533 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
if the fetus is not expected

05:24.533 --> 05:26.500 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
to survive the pregnancy.

05:26.500 --> 05:26.933 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
These are really

05:26.933 --> 05:28.133 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
the only exceptions

05:28.133 --> 05:28.700 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
that exist at this point

05:28.700 --> 05:30.066 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
in time.

05:30.066 --> 05:31.533 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Your thoughts on that?

05:31.866 --> 05:32.433 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
Wicker.

05:32.466 --> 05:33.466 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
Yeah, You know,

05:33.466 --> 05:34.066 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
those were the exceptions,

05:34.066 --> 05:36.300 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
obviously.

05:36.300 --> 05:36.633 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
You know,

05:36.633 --> 05:37.700 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
when it first came out,

05:37.700 --> 05:39.766 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
we were of the opinion

05:39.766 --> 05:40.100 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
definitely

05:40.100 --> 05:42.300 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
in terms of the ability

05:42.300 --> 05:43.733 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
to save the life of the mother

05:43.733 --> 05:44.100 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
that's done

05:44.100 --> 05:46.000 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
under a doctor's care.

05:46.000 --> 05:46.433 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
We believe that

05:46.433 --> 05:48.500 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
that was something that needed

05:48.500 --> 05:50.566 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
to be taken into consideration.

05:50.933 --> 05:52.300 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
However,

05:52.300 --> 05:52.633 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
we know that

05:52.633 --> 05:54.200 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
there are circumstances

05:54.200 --> 05:56.700 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that all the time will children

05:56.700 --> 05:58.566 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
that have disabilities.

05:58.566 --> 05:59.333 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
One young man

05:59.333 --> 06:00.833 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
we know recently

06:00.833 --> 06:03.033 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
that was actually conceived

06:03.033 --> 06:03.533 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
in rape also was born

06:03.533 --> 06:05.733 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
with three holes in his heart.

06:05.733 --> 06:06.200 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
And so, you know,

06:06.200 --> 06:08.133 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
everything was was leaning

06:08.133 --> 06:09.333 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
toward the,

06:09.333 --> 06:10.033 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
you know, the viability of this

06:10.033 --> 06:11.466 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
baby's survival.

06:11.466 --> 06:13.600 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
And his mom made the decision

06:13.600 --> 06:15.433 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
that he had the right to live.

06:15.433 --> 06:16.000 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
The holes were close up

06:16.000 --> 06:17.466 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
in his heart.

06:17.500 --> 06:18.966 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
He had heart surgery

06:18.966 --> 06:21.166 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
at 19 and living viable.

06:21.166 --> 06:22.800 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
And so we just believe

06:22.800 --> 06:24.033 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
that at the end of the day,

06:24.033 --> 06:26.066 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
every human being has

06:26.066 --> 06:27.300 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and deserves the right

06:27.300 --> 06:28.900 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
to be able to live.

06:28.900 --> 06:30.433 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Okay, maybe, Patricia.

06:30.433 --> 06:30.766 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
You know,

06:30.766 --> 06:32.466 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
I think that taking these cases

06:32.466 --> 06:33.900 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
one at a time,

06:33.900 --> 06:35.866 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
actually does have some value.

06:35.866 --> 06:37.933 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
And I celebrate

06:38.666 --> 06:40.000 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
that young man's story

06:40.000 --> 06:41.633 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
along with everyone else.

06:41.633 --> 06:42.133 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
I think it's a it's

06:42.133 --> 06:44.100 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
a great story.

06:44.366 --> 06:45.300 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
You know,

06:45.300 --> 06:48.100 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
the story started with a choice.

06:48.100 --> 06:50.033 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
The law now removes that choice.

06:50.033 --> 06:51.300 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
And that's the only thing

06:51.300 --> 06:51.766 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
that would change

06:51.766 --> 06:53.033 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
in that circumstance

06:53.033 --> 06:53.666 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
is that the choice wouldn't

06:53.666 --> 06:54.866 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
be available.

06:54.866 --> 06:55.866 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
So, again, you know,

06:55.866 --> 06:56.500 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
I think that's probably why

06:56.500 --> 06:58.100 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
70% of people

06:58.733 --> 06:59.833 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
believe that that

06:59.833 --> 07:01.733 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that especially in cases of rape

07:01.733 --> 07:02.100 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
and incest,

07:02.100 --> 07:04.266 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
the choice should exist.

07:04.266 --> 07:04.700 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
You know, I just

07:04.700 --> 07:05.866 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
I want to respond to that

07:05.866 --> 07:07.100 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
because I hear that often.

07:07.100 --> 07:08.400 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
And, you know,

07:08.400 --> 07:08.800 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
the difficulty

07:08.800 --> 07:10.100 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
I think that I have

07:10.100 --> 07:10.666 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
in being able to absorb

07:10.666 --> 07:13.100 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
that is at

07:13.100 --> 07:13.600 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
what point do we make

07:13.600 --> 07:15.833 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
the decision

07:16.033 --> 07:18.766 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
that the ability to be able

07:18.766 --> 07:21.266 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
to kill another human being

07:21.266 --> 07:22.466 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
within another human

07:22.466 --> 07:24.466 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
being is a right?

07:24.466 --> 07:25.766 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
And so I struggle with that.

07:25.766 --> 07:27.166 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
We struggle with that because

07:27.166 --> 07:28.700 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
at some point in time, to me,

07:28.700 --> 07:30.466 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
it becomes I'm

07:30.466 --> 07:30.900 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
maybe pro-life,

07:30.900 --> 07:32.533 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
but I'm selective.

07:32.866 --> 07:34.433 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
And so I have a determination

07:34.433 --> 07:35.966 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
of whether your life is valuable

07:35.966 --> 07:36.300 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
or whether

07:36.300 --> 07:37.466 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
your life is valuable.

07:37.466 --> 07:39.000 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
And at what point

07:39.000 --> 07:40.666 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
do you draw that line.

07:40.666 --> 07:41.000 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
You know,

07:41.000 --> 07:42.066 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
and the difficulty for me,

07:42.066 --> 07:43.266 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
especially as

07:43.266 --> 07:44.566 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
an African-American woman,

07:44.566 --> 07:46.300 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
at one point in history,

07:46.300 --> 07:47.300 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
it was determined

07:47.300 --> 07:47.733 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
until, you know,

07:47.733 --> 07:49.700 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
constitutional law change

07:49.700 --> 07:50.233 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
that African-Americans

07:50.233 --> 07:51.800 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
were not even considered

07:51.800 --> 07:52.400 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
a four person, just the very

07:52.400 --> 07:54.633 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
fact of our own personhood.

07:54.633 --> 07:57.366 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
So it goes to a direct passion

07:57.366 --> 07:58.666 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
for me as a mother,

07:58.666 --> 08:00.600 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
as an African-American woman,

08:00.600 --> 08:01.600 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
that we have

08:01.600 --> 08:03.600 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
select, you know, we can select

08:03.600 --> 08:04.233 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
when we value and don't value

08:04.233 --> 08:06.200 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
a person's life.

08:06.200 --> 08:07.466 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
So that's kind of the difficulty

08:07.466 --> 08:08.033 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
that I really see around

08:08.033 --> 08:09.366 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
this issue.

08:09.366 --> 08:09.733 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
And it is a

08:09.733 --> 08:11.333 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
it is a difficult issue.

08:11.333 --> 08:11.966 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
And I think it's important to

08:11.966 --> 08:13.866 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
recognize that.

08:13.866 --> 08:14.466 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
And I think,

08:15.700 --> 08:16.800 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
you know,

08:16.933 --> 08:18.066 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
with great respect

08:18.066 --> 08:19.500 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
for differing opinions,

08:19.500 --> 08:19.966 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
we don't decide that

08:19.966 --> 08:22.700 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
that question

08:22.900 --> 08:24.500 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and we shouldn't decide

08:24.500 --> 08:24.866 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
that question

08:24.866 --> 08:27.100 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
because in the story that

08:27.100 --> 08:27.566 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
kind of generated

08:27.566 --> 08:28.700 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
this conversation

08:28.700 --> 08:30.200 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that we're having, we didn't

08:30.200 --> 08:32.000 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
the mother of the child did.

08:32.000 --> 08:33.033 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
And I think it's important

08:33.033 --> 08:35.666 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
to recognize that for 50 years

08:35.666 --> 08:36.066 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
that protected

08:36.066 --> 08:37.666 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
women and children,

08:38.266 --> 08:38.700 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
especially women

08:38.700 --> 08:40.533 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and children with

08:41.600 --> 08:43.633 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
former experience or that come

08:43.633 --> 08:44.966 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
from a legacy of oppression,

08:44.966 --> 08:45.666 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
answering a legacy of oppression

08:45.666 --> 08:47.133 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
like slavery

08:47.133 --> 08:48.766 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
with more oppression,

08:48.766 --> 08:50.466 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
I think is un-American.

08:50.466 --> 08:50.900 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
It's definitely

08:50.900 --> 08:52.566 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
unconstitutional.

08:52.566 --> 08:53.566 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
And it's my

08:53.566 --> 08:54.833 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
my Christian Catholic faith

08:54.833 --> 08:55.166 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
informs me

08:55.166 --> 08:56.600 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that it's the wrong thing to do.

08:56.600 --> 08:57.233 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
And to answer your question

08:57.233 --> 08:58.433 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
more directly.

08:58.433 --> 08:59.033 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
Is there room at the table

08:59.033 --> 09:00.666 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
for this conversation?

09:00.666 --> 09:01.500 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
I think there is.

09:01.500 --> 09:02.033 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
And I think we've got,

09:02.033 --> 09:03.400 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
you know, two,

09:03.400 --> 09:04.000 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
two really intelligent folks

09:04.000 --> 09:05.166 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
sitting here

09:05.166 --> 09:06.633 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
talking about it right now

09:06.633 --> 09:08.133 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
and that it's very important

09:08.133 --> 09:08.800 position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
that the conversation continue

09:08.800 --> 09:10.433 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
and that it

09:10.700 --> 09:11.733 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
it include facts,

09:11.733 --> 09:13.400 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
science, medical truths,

09:13.400 --> 09:14.566 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
religious viewpoints

09:14.566 --> 09:15.800 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and political viewpoints,

09:15.800 --> 09:17.000 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
because all of those actually

09:17.000 --> 09:18.833 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
are important to the discussion.

09:18.833 --> 09:19.166 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
Well, it's

09:19.166 --> 09:20.566 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
great to see both of you.

09:20.566 --> 09:21.266 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
I appreciate you both being here

09:21.266 --> 09:22.333 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
today.

09:22.333 --> 09:23.900 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
We're out of time,

09:24.000 --> 09:24.333 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
but maybe

09:24.333 --> 09:24.766 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
we can come back

09:24.766 --> 09:26.233 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and talk again, though.

09:26.233 --> 09:27.466 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
Thank you. Thank you, sir.

09:27.466 --> 09:28.400 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
We appreciate so much.

09:28.400 --> 09:28.666 align:left position:37.5% line:79.33% size:52.5%
Really

09:28.666 --> 09:40.633 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
appreciate the opportunity.

09:40.633 --> 09:41.900 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
Based on the development of

09:41.900 --> 09:43.200 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
El Nino conditions

09:43.200 --> 09:44.566 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
in the Pacific Ocean.

09:44.566 --> 09:45.000 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
Early forecasts

09:45.000 --> 09:46.833 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
predict a slightly

09:46.833 --> 09:48.900 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
below average hurricane season.

09:49.333 --> 09:50.300 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Now, this forecast

09:50.300 --> 09:51.633 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
was met with concern

09:51.633 --> 09:53.866 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
from weather experts nationwide.

09:53.866 --> 09:54.333 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
So Louisiana State

09:54.333 --> 09:56.333 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
climatologist Dr.

09:56.333 --> 09:59.400 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
Barry Kime joins us to weigh in

09:59.633 --> 10:01.433 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and give us your reaction

10:01.433 --> 10:03.466 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
first to the concerns.

10:03.900 --> 10:04.266 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
So obviously,

10:04.266 --> 10:06.200 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
the concern is we're

10:06.200 --> 10:06.666 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
predicting a below

10:06.666 --> 10:08.000 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
normal season.

10:08.000 --> 10:09.800 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
We don't want people to relax.

10:09.800 --> 10:10.766 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
And that's the concern.

10:10.766 --> 10:12.300 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Yes, that's the concern.

10:12.300 --> 10:13.366 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
We're there.

10:13.366 --> 10:13.866 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
They're forecasting

10:13.866 --> 10:15.433 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
13 named storms.

10:15.466 --> 10:15.833 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
Keep in mind,

10:15.833 --> 10:17.633 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
14 is an average season.

10:17.833 --> 10:18.266 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
Okay.

10:18.433 --> 10:19.000 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
So we're slightly below

10:19.000 --> 10:20.566 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
the long term

10:20.566 --> 10:22.100 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
average Of those 13,

10:22.100 --> 10:22.466 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
we expect six

10:22.466 --> 10:23.866 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
to become hurricanes.

10:23.866 --> 10:25.066 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
This is a tropical meteorology

10:25.066 --> 10:25.466 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
group now, six

10:25.466 --> 10:26.766 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
to become hurricanes.

10:26.766 --> 10:28.333 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
Seven is a long term average.

10:28.333 --> 10:29.766 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
We expect of those two

10:29.766 --> 10:31.533 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
to become major hurricanes.

10:31.533 --> 10:32.966 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
Three is the long term average.

10:32.966 --> 10:33.433 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
So across the board,

10:33.433 --> 10:35.366 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
we're running slightly below

10:35.366 --> 10:37.600 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
normal in terms of the forecast.

10:37.900 --> 10:39.733 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
But there's greater

10:39.733 --> 10:41.400 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
uncertainty in this forecast

10:41.400 --> 10:42.000 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
than the typical forecast

10:42.000 --> 10:43.966 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
from from this group.

10:44.000 --> 10:45.033 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
And why is that?

10:45.033 --> 10:46.300 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
And it has to do

10:46.300 --> 10:47.766 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
with El Nino, where

10:47.766 --> 10:49.000 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
we've been in a La Nina

10:49.000 --> 10:50.366 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
for the last couple of years.

10:50.366 --> 10:51.766 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
The pendulum now

10:51.766 --> 10:52.466 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
goes in these colder than normal

10:52.466 --> 10:53.500 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
sea surface

10:53.500 --> 10:53.833 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
temperatures

10:53.833 --> 10:55.000 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
in the tropical Pacific.

10:55.000 --> 10:56.033 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
You know, La Nina,

10:56.033 --> 10:56.600 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
the pendulum is drifting

10:56.600 --> 10:58.100 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
in the other direction.

10:58.100 --> 11:00.200 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
We're in normal conditions now.

11:00.200 --> 11:01.066 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
By the time we get into

11:01.066 --> 11:02.566 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
the heart of hurricane season,

11:02.566 --> 11:03.666 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
we expect those sea surface

11:03.666 --> 11:05.033 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
temperatures to be above normal.

11:05.033 --> 11:06.333 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Now, the big question is

11:06.333 --> 11:07.700 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
how much above normal

11:07.700 --> 11:09.166 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
will they be?

11:09.166 --> 11:09.733 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
How potent

11:09.733 --> 11:10.066 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
will this El

11:10.066 --> 11:12.000 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
Nino be as a result?

11:12.000 --> 11:13.366 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
And that's going to influence

11:13.366 --> 11:13.966 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
just what kind of a season

11:13.966 --> 11:15.400 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
that we have here.

11:15.400 --> 11:16.000 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
And how much certainty do

11:16.000 --> 11:17.733 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
they have

11:17.833 --> 11:20.433 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that it will swing to the degree

11:20.433 --> 11:22.100 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
they forecast?

11:22.100 --> 11:22.400 align:left position:37.5% line:79.33% size:52.5%
I mean,

11:22.400 --> 11:24.100 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
there is some uncertainty.

11:24.100 --> 11:24.766 position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
I mean, there is some forecast

11:24.766 --> 11:26.100 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
ability there.

11:26.100 --> 11:27.500 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
But, you know, I mean,

11:27.500 --> 11:27.866 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
there's a lot

11:27.866 --> 11:28.900 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
a lot of things going on

11:28.900 --> 11:30.733 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
or a lot of moving parts

11:30.733 --> 11:31.566 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
involved here.

11:31.566 --> 11:31.933 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
So, you know,

11:31.933 --> 11:33.700 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
we don't know everything

11:33.700 --> 11:34.300 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
about how the weather works,

11:34.300 --> 11:36.066 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
how the ocean works.

11:36.066 --> 11:37.200 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
So so again,

11:37.200 --> 11:38.500 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
there is some uncertainty there.

11:38.500 --> 11:39.066 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
The big question is just

11:39.066 --> 11:40.866 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
how strong will this El

11:40.866 --> 11:41.333 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
Nino be in the heart

11:41.333 --> 11:42.900 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
of Hurricane season?

11:42.900 --> 11:44.233 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
And remind us again,

11:44.233 --> 11:46.333 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
El Nino versus La Nina.

11:46.466 --> 11:47.833 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
Okay, so a La

11:47.833 --> 11:48.500 position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
Nina is colder than normal Sea

11:48.500 --> 11:50.133 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
surface temperatures

11:50.133 --> 11:50.766 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
in the tropical Pacific Ocean

11:50.766 --> 11:53.033 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
really like

11:53.033 --> 11:55.000 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
right up against the bumping up

11:55.000 --> 11:56.500 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
against the south

11:56.566 --> 11:56.800 align:left position:37.5% line:79.33% size:52.5%
South

11:56.800 --> 11:58.600 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
American continent, rather.

11:58.600 --> 11:59.200 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
So there's this large pool

11:59.200 --> 12:00.700 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
of cold

12:00.700 --> 12:02.766 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
water that forms in a la Nina.

12:03.133 --> 12:04.233 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
And then it

12:04.233 --> 12:05.766 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
you know, for whatever reason,

12:05.766 --> 12:07.766 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
the drought conditions shift

12:08.100 --> 12:09.700 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and it starts to warm up.

12:09.700 --> 12:11.766 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
And right now, we're considered

12:11.766 --> 12:12.266 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
in what we would call

12:12.266 --> 12:13.533 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
neutral conditions.

12:13.533 --> 12:14.933 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
So we're neither La Nina

12:14.933 --> 12:15.266 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
nor El Nino,

12:15.266 --> 12:16.966 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
but the temperatures

12:16.966 --> 12:17.566 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
are drifting in the warmer

12:17.566 --> 12:19.133 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
direction.

12:19.233 --> 12:19.700 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
Eventually, we think

12:19.700 --> 12:21.633 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
we're going to be in an El Nino

12:21.766 --> 12:22.133 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
by the time

12:22.133 --> 12:23.166 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
the hurricane season gets.

12:23.166 --> 12:24.600 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Here and the temperatures

12:24.600 --> 12:25.066 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
in the Atlantic in

12:25.066 --> 12:27.366 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
the Gulf are warm.

12:27.700 --> 12:28.266 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
They're warmer.

12:28.266 --> 12:29.566 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
Then they will get warmer.

12:29.566 --> 12:30.700 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
That is correct.

12:30.700 --> 12:31.166 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
So when they make

12:31.166 --> 12:32.766 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
these forecast,

12:32.966 --> 12:33.600 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
there are two primary factors

12:33.600 --> 12:35.166 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
they look at.

12:35.400 --> 12:35.900 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
One is the underlying

12:35.900 --> 12:37.466 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
sea surface temperatures.

12:37.500 --> 12:38.766 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
They're running above normal.

12:38.766 --> 12:39.300 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
So that's an indicator

12:39.300 --> 12:40.233 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
that we would have

12:40.233 --> 12:41.733 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
an above normal season.

12:41.733 --> 12:42.033 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
However,

12:42.033 --> 12:43.733 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
you got to also factor in

12:43.733 --> 12:45.066 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and so are we in La

12:45.066 --> 12:47.033 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Nina or El Nino?

12:47.033 --> 12:49.233 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
If we're if we're in a La Nina,

12:49.233 --> 12:50.466 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
we're on steroids.

12:50.466 --> 12:50.966 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
So that means we have

12:50.966 --> 12:51.933 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
all the conditions.

12:51.933 --> 12:52.433 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
Looking at a busier

12:52.433 --> 12:54.500 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
than normal season 2020,

12:54.500 --> 12:56.900 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
for example, 2021. Right.

12:56.900 --> 12:57.800 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
This year,

12:57.800 --> 12:58.433 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
we're looking at conditions

12:58.433 --> 13:00.200 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
where the sea surface

13:00.200 --> 13:01.733 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
temperatures are above normal,

13:01.733 --> 13:03.800 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
meaning a busier season.

13:03.800 --> 13:06.433 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
But the El Nino mitigates that.

13:06.433 --> 13:06.733 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
In fact,

13:06.733 --> 13:08.566 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
the vertical wind shear,

13:08.566 --> 13:09.066 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
which is associated

13:09.066 --> 13:11.500 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
with the El Nino conditions,

13:11.833 --> 13:12.733 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
that's that's

13:12.733 --> 13:14.500 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
a probably even more powerful

13:14.500 --> 13:15.133 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
factor than the sea surface

13:15.133 --> 13:16.433 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
temperatures,

13:16.433 --> 13:16.900 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
which is why I think

13:16.900 --> 13:18.366 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
when you put them together,

13:18.366 --> 13:19.066 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
you end up with a slightly below

13:19.066 --> 13:20.700 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
normal season.

13:20.800 --> 13:21.900 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
The wind shear

13:21.900 --> 13:23.800 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
with maybe drier air

13:23.800 --> 13:25.233 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
coming in to a system

13:25.233 --> 13:25.866 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
that may maybe develop at one

13:25.866 --> 13:27.466 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
point

13:27.733 --> 13:29.433 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
is really the friend

13:29.433 --> 13:31.166 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
to reduce these storms.

13:31.166 --> 13:31.733 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
Yeah, that's a that's a

13:31.733 --> 13:33.333 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
that's another piece.

13:33.333 --> 13:33.933 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
But the wind shear itself,

13:33.933 --> 13:35.266 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
what it does

13:35.266 --> 13:35.700 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
is it shears off

13:35.700 --> 13:37.566 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
the top of the hurricanes

13:37.866 --> 13:39.466 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
and it basically keeps them

13:39.466 --> 13:40.766 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
from forming in the first place.

13:40.766 --> 13:43.133 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
And the ones that do form

13:43.133 --> 13:44.100 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
aren't as strong

13:44.100 --> 13:45.366 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
as they would be otherwise.

13:45.366 --> 13:45.733 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
And then what

13:45.733 --> 13:46.666 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
you're talking about

13:46.666 --> 13:47.033 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
is, you know,

13:47.033 --> 13:48.766 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
is this advocating this dry air

13:48.766 --> 13:49.233 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
off the continent

13:49.233 --> 13:51.000 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
into the storms as they approach

13:51.000 --> 13:51.633 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
the Gulf, and that also leads

13:51.633 --> 13:53.233 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
to their demise.

13:53.400 --> 13:54.033 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
And one thing that, you know,

13:54.033 --> 13:56.666 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
people are aware of is that it

13:56.666 --> 13:58.466 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
really only takes one storm

13:58.466 --> 14:00.133 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
to hit in a certain area.

14:00.133 --> 14:00.733 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
And then you have a terrible

14:00.733 --> 14:02.466 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
hurricane season.

14:02.500 --> 14:04.333 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
That's right. We've had years.

14:04.333 --> 14:04.900 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
1992 was a great example

14:04.900 --> 14:06.633 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
of this.

14:06.933 --> 14:08.633 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
All the indicators suggested

14:08.633 --> 14:10.200 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
a below normal season.

14:10.200 --> 14:10.866 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
And guess what?

14:10.866 --> 14:12.166 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
It was a below normal season.

14:12.166 --> 14:12.633 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
But we had Hurricane

14:12.633 --> 14:14.566 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Andrew that year, Right.

14:14.600 --> 14:14.900 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
Category

14:14.900 --> 14:17.233 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
five, annihilate South Florida,

14:17.533 --> 14:18.000 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
and then it comes

14:18.000 --> 14:19.033 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and pays a visit

14:19.033 --> 14:19.500 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
as a major hurricane

14:19.500 --> 14:21.100 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
even here in Louisiana.

14:21.100 --> 14:21.666 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
So we always have to be

14:21.666 --> 14:23.133 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
on our guard.

14:23.266 --> 14:24.933 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
13 named storms

14:24.933 --> 14:26.533 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
is still a lot of storms.

14:26.533 --> 14:27.100 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
So just don't think that

14:27.100 --> 14:29.266 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
we're off the hook this season

14:29.266 --> 14:29.666 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
because that's

14:29.666 --> 14:30.600 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
definitely not the case.

14:30.600 --> 14:30.933 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
All right.

14:30.933 --> 14:32.433 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
We'll get back in touch

14:32.433 --> 14:34.366 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
with you and keep up with you

14:34.366 --> 14:35.500 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
during the course of the season.

14:35.500 --> 14:36.333 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
It's always a pleasure.

14:36.333 --> 14:44.800 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Thank you so much.

14:46.600 --> 14:47.666 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
Well, festival season

14:47.666 --> 14:49.300 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
is officially among us.

14:49.300 --> 14:49.566 align:left position:37.5% line:79.33% size:52.5%
French

14:49.566 --> 14:50.733 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%

14:50.733 --> 14:51.033 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%

14:51.033 --> 14:52.633 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
Fest is just around the corner.

14:52.633 --> 14:54.400 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
But in between both is a new one

14:54.400 --> 14:56.100 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
you may not have heard of yet.

14:56.100 --> 14:57.000 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
For the love of the Culture

14:57.000 --> 14:57.666 position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
Fest is in its very first year

14:57.666 --> 14:59.233 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
and it promises

14:59.233 --> 14:59.766 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
to bring all that good

14:59.766 --> 15:00.800 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
New Orleans

15:00.800 --> 15:02.066 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
music to the locals.

15:02.066 --> 15:03.733 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
So make sure you take a look.

15:03.733 --> 15:04.800 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Oh, I'm the second chief

15:04.800 --> 15:06.166 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
of the Golden Eagles.

15:06.166 --> 15:07.800 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
I've been medicine

15:07.800 --> 15:08.600 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
for the Golden Eagles

15:08.600 --> 15:10.566 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
since 1987, actually.

15:10.566 --> 15:12.633 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Yeah, third generation.

15:12.633 --> 15:13.300 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
What's that been

15:13.300 --> 15:14.733 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
like being able to mask?

15:14.733 --> 15:15.433 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
Oh, man.

15:15.433 --> 15:15.766 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
You know,

15:15.766 --> 15:17.700 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
it has its ups and downs is.

15:17.700 --> 15:18.766 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
I mean, it's cool. Obviously.

15:18.766 --> 15:19.400 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
It's cool to everybody else

15:19.400 --> 15:20.866 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
that looks at it.

15:21.200 --> 15:21.733 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
But like anything else

15:21.733 --> 15:23.233 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
that is great.

15:23.233 --> 15:23.533 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
It comes

15:23.533 --> 15:25.800 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
with a lot of responsibility.

15:25.800 --> 15:27.966 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
It comes with a lot of pressure.

15:27.966 --> 15:29.966 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
A lot of times where you just

15:29.966 --> 15:31.166 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Oh, man, I just kidding.

15:31.166 --> 15:32.366 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
I don't know, you know,

15:32.366 --> 15:33.300 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
But it's worth it in

15:33.300 --> 15:34.533 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
the end is definitely worth it.

15:34.533 --> 15:35.400 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
In the end.

15:35.400 --> 15:36.833 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
You don't get a rich culture

15:36.833 --> 15:38.433 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
like Joseph Boudreaux Jr's

15:38.433 --> 15:39.066 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
without putting in the work

15:39.066 --> 15:40.933 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
he's with.

15:40.933 --> 15:41.533 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
The people in New Orleans

15:41.533 --> 15:43.200 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
will call the culture bearer.

15:43.500 --> 15:43.933 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
He takes a year

15:43.933 --> 15:45.500 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
to make his masking suit.

15:45.800 --> 15:46.366 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
He travels with his band

15:46.366 --> 15:47.566 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
to bring the sound

15:47.566 --> 15:47.966 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
of New Orleans

15:47.966 --> 15:49.966 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
all over the country

15:49.966 --> 15:51.566 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and sometimes out of it.

15:51.566 --> 15:52.566 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
I mean, you get a chance

15:52.566 --> 15:53.866 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
to see a culture

15:53.866 --> 15:55.100 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
that's been thriving.

15:55.100 --> 15:55.566 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
It has been going on

15:55.566 --> 15:57.133 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
for far longer

15:57.133 --> 15:59.233 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
before you even touched it.

15:59.233 --> 16:00.500 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
You know, we're well

16:00.500 --> 16:02.466 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
over 150 years now.

16:02.466 --> 16:04.133 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
And then when you come along,

16:04.133 --> 16:04.833 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
you kind of look and see, okay,

16:04.833 --> 16:06.633 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
how can I leave

16:06.633 --> 16:07.933 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
my imprint on it?

16:07.933 --> 16:09.100 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
Because when we in a culture

16:09.100 --> 16:11.033 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
we always taught to carry on,

16:11.033 --> 16:11.733 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
that's one of the first lessons

16:11.733 --> 16:13.300 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
you learn.

16:13.300 --> 16:14.200 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
This carrier culture

16:14.200 --> 16:16.233 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
all make it better, you know,

16:16.233 --> 16:17.433 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
preserved for the youngsters

16:17.433 --> 16:18.900 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that's coming up underneath you.

16:18.900 --> 16:19.133 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
Yeah.

16:19.133 --> 16:20.666 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
So for you, it's a legacy thing.

16:20.666 --> 16:22.366 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Absolutely. Absolutely.

16:22.366 --> 16:23.666 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
But a vital part of keeping

16:23.666 --> 16:24.133 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
that legacy going

16:24.133 --> 16:25.700 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
is sustainability.

16:26.333 --> 16:27.566 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
Every person's career

16:27.566 --> 16:29.666 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
needs it to thrive, to balance.

16:30.166 --> 16:30.833 position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
Joseph says that culture bears

16:30.833 --> 16:32.366 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
needed to,

16:32.566 --> 16:33.600 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
especially in the form

16:33.600 --> 16:34.866 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
of compensation,

16:34.866 --> 16:36.066 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
which historically

16:36.066 --> 16:37.833 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
these celebrated individuals

16:37.833 --> 16:39.333 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
don't always get.

16:39.333 --> 16:41.166 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
It comes along with it costs

16:41.166 --> 16:43.366 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
anything and always

16:43.366 --> 16:44.866 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
kind of breaks it down to women

16:44.866 --> 16:46.266 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
like anything

16:46.266 --> 16:46.766 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
that's worth having

16:46.766 --> 16:48.366 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and looks pretty.

16:48.366 --> 16:50.400 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
It comes at a cost, right?

16:50.400 --> 16:50.766 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
So in 2020,

16:50.766 --> 16:52.933 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
the Music and Culture

16:52.933 --> 16:53.500 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
Coalition of New Orleans

16:53.500 --> 16:54.500 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
found that

16:54.500 --> 16:55.100 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
there was a wage discrepancy

16:55.100 --> 16:56.866 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
among the city's culture.

16:56.866 --> 16:57.233 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
Bears, though

16:57.233 --> 16:59.233 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
it's hard to pinpoint exactly

16:59.233 --> 17:00.600 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
how many there are

17:00.600 --> 17:02.266 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
and what they do professionally.

17:02.266 --> 17:02.633 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
It's agreed

17:02.633 --> 17:04.466 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that a lot work in hospitality,

17:04.566 --> 17:06.366 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
bringing in lower incomes.

17:06.366 --> 17:06.700 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
You know,

17:06.700 --> 17:09.200 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
is it cost to be pretty?

17:09.200 --> 17:09.666 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
It cost to be able

17:09.666 --> 17:10.966 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
to come out on the street

17:10.966 --> 17:12.466 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and represent the city

17:12.466 --> 17:13.033 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
and feed The second line

17:13.033 --> 17:14.800 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
is actually helping

17:14.800 --> 17:15.133 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
kind of take

17:15.133 --> 17:17.066 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
a little bit of that edge off

17:17.066 --> 17:17.633 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
with some of the culture

17:17.633 --> 17:18.500 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
bearers,

17:18.500 --> 17:18.833 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
you know, by

17:18.833 --> 17:20.633 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
helping them with jobs,

17:20.633 --> 17:21.233 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
helping them with funding

17:21.233 --> 17:22.966 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
and things of that nature.

17:22.966 --> 17:24.600 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
So every little push

17:24.600 --> 17:26.900 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that we the second line can do,

17:27.166 --> 17:28.100 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
it's, you know,

17:28.100 --> 17:28.433 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
a weight off

17:28.433 --> 17:29.833 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
of the cultures, but,

17:29.833 --> 17:31.400 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
you know, hopefully

17:31.400 --> 17:31.866 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
be the second line

17:31.866 --> 17:33.533 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and other companies

17:33.533 --> 17:35.900 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
in non-profits can grow feed.

17:35.900 --> 17:36.333 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
The second line

17:36.333 --> 17:37.500 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
is an organization

17:37.500 --> 17:38.800 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that started to help people like

17:38.800 --> 17:40.633 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
Joseph back in 2020.

17:40.633 --> 17:41.866 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
The goal is to keep the city

17:41.866 --> 17:43.266 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
afloat by supporting those

17:43.266 --> 17:44.666 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
that make it special,

17:44.666 --> 17:45.800 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
the latest method

17:45.800 --> 17:47.466 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
being a music festival

17:47.466 --> 17:48.466 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
for the love of the Culture

17:48.466 --> 17:49.000 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
Fest, takes local acts

17:49.000 --> 17:50.933 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and makes them accessible

17:50.933 --> 17:52.633 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
to the community they love.

17:52.633 --> 17:53.200 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
Plus they're compensated

17:53.200 --> 17:54.666 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
for their work.

17:55.000 --> 17:55.700 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
It's an effort to Miss Williams

17:55.700 --> 17:56.933 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
that works.

17:56.933 --> 17:58.366 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Executive director says

17:58.366 --> 17:59.933 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
it's long overdue.

17:59.933 --> 18:00.500 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
But I mean, Louisiana

18:00.500 --> 18:01.833 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
already has like

18:01.833 --> 18:02.433 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
several different culture

18:02.433 --> 18:04.433 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
fests in a way.

18:04.433 --> 18:05.033 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
So what makes this one so

18:05.033 --> 18:06.800 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
different from the other ones?

18:06.933 --> 18:08.066 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
This is a festival

18:08.066 --> 18:10.166 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that's put on by the culture

18:10.166 --> 18:11.133 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
for the culture

18:11.133 --> 18:12.333 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
to actually display

18:12.333 --> 18:13.600 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
to the community.

18:13.600 --> 18:14.166 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
And when you think about

18:14.166 --> 18:16.366 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
most festivals that are given

18:16.700 --> 18:17.900 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
throughout the city,

18:17.900 --> 18:19.066 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
they're really expensive.

18:19.066 --> 18:19.533 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
The best thing about

18:19.533 --> 18:21.700 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
it is all proceeds

18:21.700 --> 18:23.366 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
that are made actually

18:23.366 --> 18:25.266 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
goes back into the culture,

18:25.266 --> 18:26.466 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
meaning it goes back.

18:26.466 --> 18:27.166 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
And so the programs that we have

18:27.166 --> 18:29.266 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
at Feed the second line

18:29.266 --> 18:29.766 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
for our culture bears

18:29.766 --> 18:31.800 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
and what are those programs?

18:31.800 --> 18:32.166 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
How are those

18:32.166 --> 18:33.333 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
supporting the community

18:33.333 --> 18:33.900 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
and keeping that culture

18:33.900 --> 18:35.200 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
alive in New Orleans?

18:35.200 --> 18:36.933 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
So when you think about,

18:36.933 --> 18:38.000 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
you know, the things

18:38.000 --> 18:38.500 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
that the dedication

18:38.500 --> 18:40.300 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
and the time,

18:40.466 --> 18:41.500 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
what the culture bears

18:41.500 --> 18:41.900 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
do to display,

18:41.900 --> 18:44.000 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
you know, this tradition

18:44.000 --> 18:44.466 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
to the community,

18:44.466 --> 18:46.300 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
it's really expensive.

18:46.566 --> 18:47.166 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
And so we want to put them

18:47.166 --> 18:48.766 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
in a position

18:48.766 --> 18:50.000 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
to where they're able

18:50.000 --> 18:51.900 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
to take those proceeds

18:51.900 --> 18:52.466 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
and money that they make

18:52.466 --> 18:54.133 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and put that back.

18:54.133 --> 18:54.733 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
And so whether they're doing

18:54.733 --> 18:56.466 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
their,

18:56.466 --> 18:56.800 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
you know,

18:56.800 --> 18:58.500 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
making their babydoll dress

18:58.800 --> 18:59.266 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
or whether they're

18:59.266 --> 19:01.266 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
creating their Indian food

19:01.500 --> 19:02.933 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
or even if they're just simply

19:02.933 --> 19:04.400 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
paying for their permits

19:04.400 --> 19:06.133 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
to actually be able to parade

19:06.133 --> 19:07.766 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
if they're in a social aid

19:07.766 --> 19:08.833 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and pleasure club.

19:08.833 --> 19:11.833 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
So being able to create a job

19:11.833 --> 19:12.433 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
opportunity and a safety net

19:12.433 --> 19:14.566 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
for the culture barrier

19:14.566 --> 19:16.000 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
so they can take that

19:16.000 --> 19:16.700 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
and put it back into themselves

19:16.700 --> 19:18.433 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
so they can do

19:18.433 --> 19:18.900 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
what they love to do

19:18.900 --> 19:20.966 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
and show out for the community.

19:20.966 --> 19:22.266 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
All proceeds go back into

19:22.266 --> 19:22.733 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
Feed the second line

19:22.733 --> 19:24.400 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
to fund other projects.

19:24.400 --> 19:24.866 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
Denise mentioned,

19:24.866 --> 19:26.433 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
for the love of the Culture

19:26.433 --> 19:28.166 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
Fest, is in its first year,

19:28.166 --> 19:28.766 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
but the goal is to make it

19:28.766 --> 19:30.633 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
a tradition

19:30.633 --> 19:31.333 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
for the love of the Culture Fest

19:31.333 --> 19:32.500 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
is happening on

19:32.500 --> 19:32.866 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
April 27th,

19:32.866 --> 19:34.933 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
the day before Jazz Fest.

19:34.933 --> 19:35.466 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
So you still have time

19:35.466 --> 19:36.300 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
to get tickets.

19:36.300 --> 19:37.933 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
And of course, kids get in free.

19:37.933 --> 19:38.366 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
It's a mouthful,

19:38.366 --> 19:39.233 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
but it sounds like a.

19:39.233 --> 19:39.633 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
Lot of fun.

19:39.633 --> 19:40.900 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
It definitely seems like a lot.

19:40.900 --> 19:42.066 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
You get this week's Young Hero.

19:42.066 --> 19:42.566 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
Now, I do also have

19:42.566 --> 19:43.733 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
a young hero,

19:43.733 --> 19:44.366 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
and I'm so happy to introduce

19:44.366 --> 19:46.433 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Nicholas Tarver.

19:46.433 --> 19:47.900 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
He has dealt with cerebral

19:47.900 --> 19:49.100 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
palsy, epilepsy

19:49.100 --> 19:49.600 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
and vision impairment

19:49.600 --> 19:51.666 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
since birth, but it's how

19:51.666 --> 19:53.233 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
he tackles these hurdles

19:53.233 --> 19:55.266 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that is truly inspirational.

19:55.266 --> 19:55.766 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
His volunteer efforts

19:55.766 --> 19:57.300 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
have included serving

19:57.300 --> 19:57.900 align:left position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
as president of the Children

19:57.900 --> 19:59.766 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
of the American Revolution

19:59.766 --> 20:00.166 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
for Louisiana,

20:00.166 --> 20:02.133 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
working with wreaths

20:02.133 --> 20:03.733 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
across America and serving

20:03.733 --> 20:05.000 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
on the national board

20:05.000 --> 20:06.666 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
as chairman of the Tomb

20:06.666 --> 20:07.833 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
of the Unknown American

20:07.833 --> 20:09.133 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Revolutionary Soldier,

20:09.133 --> 20:10.866 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
I am so pleased to introduce you

20:10.866 --> 20:12.533 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
to this week's young hero.

20:13.833 --> 20:17.100 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
Come on, come on, come on.

20:17.100 --> 20:19.266 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
And even though a lot of

20:19.266 --> 20:21.900 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
I have a lot of disabilities,

20:21.900 --> 20:24.100 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
I'm able to be successful

20:24.100 --> 20:25.933 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
and thrive in school

20:25.933 --> 20:27.666 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and thrive in my life.

20:27.666 --> 20:29.233 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
Looking at Nicholas Tarver,

20:29.233 --> 20:30.566 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
you can likely see the signs

20:30.566 --> 20:31.766 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
of his disability.

20:31.766 --> 20:33.000 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
He walks with a cane

20:33.000 --> 20:34.400 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
and sometimes needs an aide

20:34.400 --> 20:35.933 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
to read and write.

20:35.933 --> 20:38.600 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
He's also blind and epileptic.

20:38.600 --> 20:40.966 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
There's nothing I read,

20:40.966 --> 20:41.533 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
but what most can't see

20:41.533 --> 20:43.033 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
is his sheer

20:43.033 --> 20:44.466 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
determination to live

20:44.466 --> 20:46.066 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
life to the fullest.

20:46.066 --> 20:47.366 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
Allison just told me

20:47.366 --> 20:48.066 position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
that you stayed outside of this

20:48.066 --> 20:49.466 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
hospital.

20:49.833 --> 20:51.766 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
Read.

20:51.766 --> 20:53.033 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
I did. I was scared.

20:53.033 --> 20:55.500 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
If I left that they would know

20:55.500 --> 20:55.966 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
that he was supposed

20:55.966 --> 20:57.700 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
to stay around and be with us.

20:57.700 --> 20:59.100 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
So I spent the night

20:59.100 --> 20:59.400 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
a couple

20:59.400 --> 21:00.500 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
of nights at the hospital

21:01.533 --> 21:02.066 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
in the waiting

21:02.066 --> 21:03.266 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
room so that

21:03.266 --> 21:04.533 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
he would have company.

21:04.533 --> 21:06.633 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
His handicap is not a handicap.

21:06.633 --> 21:08.600 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
He just walks around it,

21:08.600 --> 21:09.766 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
his grades at school.

21:09.766 --> 21:10.866 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
Awesome.

21:10.866 --> 21:12.466 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
But nobody knows how many hours

21:12.466 --> 21:12.766 align:left position:37.5% line:79.33% size:52.5%
he puts

21:12.766 --> 21:15.466 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
in practicing and learning

21:15.466 --> 21:17.766 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and reviewing everything.

21:17.766 --> 21:20.333 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
So I guess

21:20.500 --> 21:21.966 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
I don't know what I could say

21:21.966 --> 21:23.466 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
I'm most proud of, except

21:23.466 --> 21:24.833 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
maybe it's just his attitude.

21:24.833 --> 21:26.400 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
About life out here

21:26.400 --> 21:27.600 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
on his family's farm.

21:27.600 --> 21:29.500 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
He's a rancher, an athlete,

21:29.500 --> 21:30.933 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and a role model,

21:30.933 --> 21:33.066 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
a normal 17 year old.

21:33.066 --> 21:33.700 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
But it was an uphill battle

21:33.700 --> 21:35.366 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
to get here.

21:35.366 --> 21:35.666 align:left position:35% line:79.33% size:55%
My right

21:35.666 --> 21:37.533 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
arm and right legs can be tight.

21:37.533 --> 21:39.233 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
I get around with my cane.

21:39.233 --> 21:41.300 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Sometimes I'm wheelchair

21:41.300 --> 21:43.766 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
get around basically

21:43.766 --> 21:44.266 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
with my action trike,

21:44.266 --> 21:46.233 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
cane, wheelchair.

21:46.233 --> 21:48.200 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
It's any thing that I can.

21:48.566 --> 21:50.566 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
He's actually a miracle, baby.

21:50.566 --> 21:51.066 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
He was not supposed

21:51.066 --> 21:52.866 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
to survive the night.

21:53.400 --> 21:55.933 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
And if he did survive 24 hours,

21:55.933 --> 21:58.066 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
it was going to be substantial

21:58.966 --> 22:01.033 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
mental disabilities.

22:01.033 --> 22:02.366 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
So we were faced with that,

22:02.366 --> 22:02.700 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
which was,

22:02.700 --> 22:04.933 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
of course, for new parents.

22:04.933 --> 22:06.466 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
Heartbreaking.

22:06.466 --> 22:09.000 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
But as as we went through it,

22:09.000 --> 22:11.500 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
we realized that he was actually

22:11.500 --> 22:13.133 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
quite phenomenal.

22:13.133 --> 22:14.933 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
Nicholas has cerebral palsy,

22:14.933 --> 22:16.500 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
which is a neurological disorder

22:16.500 --> 22:17.933 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
that affects muscles and motor

22:17.933 --> 22:19.200 align:left position:37.5% line:84.67% size:52.5%
skills.

22:19.200 --> 22:19.666 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
Sometimes it creates

22:19.666 --> 22:21.233 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
counter issues

22:21.233 --> 22:23.633 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
like blindness and epilepsy.

22:23.633 --> 22:24.766 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
It's a rare disease

22:24.766 --> 22:26.833 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
that affects only 2 to 3 babies.

22:26.833 --> 22:27.800 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Out of a thousand.

22:27.800 --> 22:28.366 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
Took me a little longer

22:28.366 --> 22:30.100 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
to come to grips with what.

22:30.100 --> 22:32.233 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
What that meant and

22:32.233 --> 22:33.100 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
and fully understand.

22:33.100 --> 22:33.566 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
And so I would say

22:33.566 --> 22:34.966 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
I was probably

22:34.966 --> 22:37.200 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
two years easy to

22:38.200 --> 22:40.066 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
understand the

22:40.066 --> 22:42.233 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
the limits.

22:42.233 --> 22:44.400 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
The room we put on on Nicholas.

22:44.400 --> 22:45.266 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
His limitations

22:45.266 --> 22:46.933 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
make everyday life harder.

22:46.933 --> 22:48.700 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
And my youngest son is 12

22:48.700 --> 22:50.400 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
and he gets up at seven,

22:50.400 --> 22:51.666 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
I mean, 640

22:51.666 --> 22:52.833 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
for us to be out of the door

22:52.833 --> 22:54.033 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
for 7:00

22:54.033 --> 22:56.466 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
and Nicholas gets up at six,

22:56.466 --> 22:57.100 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
but Nicholas gets up at six

22:57.100 --> 22:59.000 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and he can brush

22:59.000 --> 23:00.500 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
his teeth, wash his face,

23:00.500 --> 23:01.733 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
he dresses himself.

23:01.733 --> 23:02.233 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
You know, he can do

23:02.233 --> 23:03.666 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
everything that he does.

23:03.666 --> 23:05.566 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
It just may take him 45 minutes

23:05.566 --> 23:05.966 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
instead of ten

23:05.966 --> 23:07.766 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
like my youngest son does.

23:08.066 --> 23:09.733 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
And yet here he is

23:09.733 --> 23:11.100 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
beating the odds.

23:11.100 --> 23:12.700 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
Nicholas works around

23:12.700 --> 23:14.300 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
his limitations.

23:14.300 --> 23:14.766 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
That were accepted

23:14.766 --> 23:17.800 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
for publication

23:17.800 --> 23:19.766 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
to the over 30 societies

23:19.766 --> 23:21.033 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
that submitted their.

23:21.033 --> 23:21.533 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
Alison and Nicholas

23:21.533 --> 23:23.233 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
learned Braille.

23:23.233 --> 23:24.933 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
He uses it to do his homework.

23:24.933 --> 23:27.233 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
He writes essays, even speeches.

23:27.600 --> 23:30.166 position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
And have a voice in this great

23:30.166 --> 23:31.566 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
organization.

23:31.566 --> 23:31.933 align:left position:30% line:79.33% size:60%
He's a part

23:31.933 --> 23:33.566 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
of several organizations

23:33.566 --> 23:34.166 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
that rely on his knowledge

23:34.166 --> 23:35.533 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
and expertise

23:35.533 --> 23:36.766 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
to function

23:37.000 --> 23:38.300 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
as president of the children

23:38.300 --> 23:39.933 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
of the American Revolution.

23:39.933 --> 23:40.866 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
Nicholas was awarded

23:40.866 --> 23:41.466 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
by the lieutenant governor

23:41.466 --> 23:42.866 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
for his dedication

23:42.866 --> 23:43.366 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
to preserving history

23:43.366 --> 23:45.533 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
at Fort Jessup.

23:45.533 --> 23:48.266 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
When I was state president.

23:48.266 --> 23:49.800 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
So my project was

23:49.800 --> 23:51.400 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
by no means Lincoln.

23:53.033 --> 23:54.333 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
And I wanted to,

23:54.333 --> 23:56.066 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
I guess, bring awareness

23:56.066 --> 23:56.500 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
to No Man's Land

23:56.500 --> 23:58.466 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and for the people

23:58.466 --> 23:58.966 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
to be to know about

23:58.966 --> 24:02.233 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
no man's land

24:03.066 --> 24:03.566 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
and to have an idea

24:03.566 --> 24:05.500 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
of what no man's land

24:05.666 --> 24:06.833 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
is valued.

24:06.833 --> 24:08.166 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Lieutenant Governor

24:08.166 --> 24:09.433 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
gave me this award

24:09.433 --> 24:11.866 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
from, again, my outstanding work

24:11.866 --> 24:13.666 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
on No Man's land

24:13.666 --> 24:14.166 align:left position:22.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
in my state project

24:14.166 --> 24:17.766 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
as president.

24:17.766 --> 24:19.100 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
He's treasurer of the Future

24:19.100 --> 24:20.466 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Farmers of America,

24:20.466 --> 24:20.900 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
where he proved

24:20.900 --> 24:22.466 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
that kids with disabilities

24:22.466 --> 24:23.100 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
can still make a difference

24:23.100 --> 24:27.166 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
in agriculture.

24:27.166 --> 24:28.633 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
But why stop there?

24:28.633 --> 24:30.266 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
He's also an athlete.

24:30.266 --> 24:31.633 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
My brother plays

24:31.633 --> 24:33.266 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
basketball and baseball.

24:33.266 --> 24:34.866 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
My sister does

24:34.866 --> 24:36.500 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
cheer and gymnastics,

24:36.500 --> 24:37.766 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
so it gives me something to do.

24:37.766 --> 24:38.366 align:left position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
And my parents, they don't

24:38.366 --> 24:41.400 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
treat me any different.

24:41.766 --> 24:43.500 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
Nicholas is a proud participant

24:43.500 --> 24:44.866 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
in the Gumbo games

24:44.866 --> 24:47.233 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
or games Uniting mind and body.

24:47.233 --> 24:48.266 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
He's good too.

24:48.266 --> 24:49.200 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
He'll beat anyone

24:49.200 --> 24:50.966 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
at the Javelin and shotput.

24:50.966 --> 24:53.266 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
So everyone, mainly

24:53.266 --> 24:56.600 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
the non physical impairment.

24:56.600 --> 24:58.700 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
People can play baseball,

24:59.000 --> 25:00.066 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
basketball,

25:00.066 --> 25:01.800 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
football, all these activities.

25:01.800 --> 25:03.200 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
Well, when you have cerebral

25:03.200 --> 25:04.766 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
palsy, that's

25:05.900 --> 25:08.666 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
difficult and

25:08.666 --> 25:10.100 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
it can be doable,

25:10.100 --> 25:13.233 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
but it's probably not

25:13.233 --> 25:14.833 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
the best.

25:14.833 --> 25:17.766 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
So I throw the javelin shot

25:17.900 --> 25:20.000 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
put in discus.

25:20.000 --> 25:21.366 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
I've qualified and moved

25:21.366 --> 25:21.933 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
United junior Nationals,

25:21.933 --> 25:24.000 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
which will

25:24.066 --> 25:24.666 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
which was held in Denver,

25:24.666 --> 25:26.833 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
Colorado

25:26.833 --> 25:27.933 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
last year.

25:28.300 --> 25:30.933 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
I was actually national champion

25:30.933 --> 25:32.533 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
and all three

25:33.000 --> 25:34.566 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
awesome.

25:34.566 --> 25:37.000 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
And then I qualified in

25:38.100 --> 25:40.933 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
the javelin and shotput

25:41.500 --> 25:44.100 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
so far for this year's move,

25:44.100 --> 25:46.333 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
you're not in competition

25:46.566 --> 25:48.100 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
held in Hoover, Alabama.

25:48.100 --> 25:50.433 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
That'll be in July of this year.

25:50.433 --> 25:51.466 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Nicholas is living

25:51.466 --> 25:53.233 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
a fulfilling life.

25:53.233 --> 25:53.966 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
He's accomplished

25:53.966 --> 25:55.733 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
more than I can list.

25:55.733 --> 25:56.633 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
He's happy.

25:56.633 --> 25:58.433 align:left position:20% line:84.67% size:70%
His family is proud.

25:58.433 --> 25:59.466 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
If there are young heroes

25:59.466 --> 26:00.733 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
worth celebrating.

26:00.733 --> 26:02.066 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
Nicholas is definitely

26:02.066 --> 26:06.466 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
one of them.

26:06.466 --> 26:08.033 align:left position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
Nicholas is also in for age.

26:08.033 --> 26:09.833 position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
He's participated in trash Bash

26:09.833 --> 26:10.333 align:left position:20% line:79.33% size:70%
to help reduce litter

26:10.333 --> 26:11.400 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
in his community.

26:11.400 --> 26:11.966 align:left position:15% line:79.33% size:75%
And like I said earlier,

But what I didn't mention

26:15.733 --> 26:17.033 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
is that at first

26:17.033 --> 26:18.733 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
it was just one graveyard,

26:18.733 --> 26:19.166 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
two graveyards,

26:19.166 --> 26:21.133 align:left position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
and now they're up to five.

Yeah.

26:21.500 --> 26:21.800 align:left position:37.5% line:79.33% size:52.5%
So he's

just truly an amazing kid.

26:24.566 --> 26:25.333 align:left position:25% line:84.67% size:65%
Does he not do?

26:26.300 --> 26:26.666 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
He does.

26:26.666 --> 26:28.033 align:left position:35% line:84.67% size:55%
So, yeah.

26:28.033 --> 26:29.233 align:left position:15% line:84.67% size:75%
So we wish him the best.

26:29.233 --> 26:29.666 align:left position:25% line:79.33% size:65%
He's definitely

26:29.666 --> 26:31.333 align:left position:22.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
an impressive guy.

26:31.333 --> 26:31.700 align:left position:30% line:84.67% size:60%
