[Assistant] She's just gonna pass out? Oh, please don't do anything, Nezuko.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She's trying to bait us. She's even drooling a bit. She's just gonna pass out. Oh my god!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wait here. Just listen, please. Hall has my family.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A demon attacked me. What was I supposed to do? You don't need to fight. Are you saying it won't happen again?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And your missing soldiers are in there somewhere? Along with whatever has detained them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I still disagree. The Templars could serve just as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They aren't more concerned about the breach, the real threat. They do know it's a threat, they just don't think we can stop them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's an excuse. They're making things worse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The wolves should be back to normal now. They shouldn't be any further trouble.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was just about to do that myself. As if I would do anything for your pleasure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You are called to a higher purpose. Do not question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm here investigating Grey Wardens for the Inquisition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're seeing if their disappearance has anything to do with the murder of the Divine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Makers, bulls, the wardens and the divine. That can't- no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Inquisition. Agent, did you say? Hold a moment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Warden Blackwall, the Inquisition accepts your offer. Good to hear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm here to get mages to close the breach. Right, to business. I understand, of course.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Felix. My lord, I'm so sorry. Please forgive me. Are you alright?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good, you're finally here. Now help me close this, would you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fascinating. How does that work exactly?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dorian of House Parvus, most recently of Minrathus. How do you do?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's start with Alexius claiming the allegiance of the major rebels out from under you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As if by magic, yes? Which is exactly right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To reach Redcliffe, before the Inquisition, Alexius distorted time itself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If there was a way to turn back time, the Dalish would have used it long ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You saw how it twisted time around itself, sped some things up and slowed others down? Soon, there will be more like it. And they'll appear further and further away from Redcliffe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The magic Alexius is using is wildly unstable. And it's unraveling the world. Why should I believe any of this? I know what I'm talking about. I helped develop this magic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ripping time to shreds just to gain a few hundred lackeys? He didn't do it for them. Took you long enough. Is he getting suspicious? No, but I shouldn't have played the illness card. I thought he'd be fussing over me all day. My father's joined a cult, Tevinter Supremacists. They call themselves Venatori. And I can tell you one thing. Whatever he's done for them, he's done it to get to you. I'm not afraid of Alexius.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You sent your stable hands and your horses to the inquisition. What about you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What are you doing out here? What is it you think is happening?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let the southern mages fight the breach and let's go home. No.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we find him we might be able to get back to our own time and stop all this before it happens. Exciting, yes?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 942? Then we've missed an entire year!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm here now. No matter what, I'll drive them all back to Tevinter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said, maybe. It might also turn us into paste.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's dangerous and unpredictable. Before the breach nothing we did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We need to find Alexius. I'm sure he'll be in the nicer part of the castle. There is one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everything you did to the world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It does matter. I will undo this. How many times have I tried?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He wanted to die, didn't he? All those lies he told himself. The justifications. He lost Felix long ago. Didn't even notice. Oh, Alexius.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's going to be alright, Father. You'll die. Everyone dies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hopefully better than what Alexius gave you. The Inquisition is better than that, yes? No one fights well for their captors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We cannot afford to be divided now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The voice of pragmatism speaks. Here I was, just starting to enjoy the circular arguments.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sounds like something a Tevinter cult might do. Allay falls, the Imperium rises. Chaos for everyone. One battle at a time. It's going to take time to organize our


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll skip the war council, but I would like to see this breach up close if you don't mind. Then you're staying? Oh, didn't I mention? The south is so charming and rustic. I adore it to little pieces.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Stay if you must, but you'll be watched. Watch away. I have nothing to hide, and evidently plenty to prove. I'll begin preparations to march on the summit. Make a willing, the mages will be enough to grant us victory.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We could turn the remaining trebuchets, cause one last slide. We're overrun. To hit the enemy, we'd bury Haven. We're dying, but we can decide how.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't you see? The people trust me implicitly. Faith tends to make martyrs of its champions. Whatever the case.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That trust cannot grow in the wilderness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's crossed paths with Corypheus before and may know more about what he's doing. He can help.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't worry, Josephine. We'll protect the Empress no matter what.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you can seduce an apostate in the middle of war, you can make contacts and get information.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I remember what would have happened to Thadas if his treachery had succeeded.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You swore to the mages you'd help them. I will have you uphold that promise. Fiona will take charge of you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any knowledge, favor, or coin you own will go towards the mage's future.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Meet Hawk, the champion of Kirkwall. Though, I don't use that title much anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This view reminds me of my home in Kirkwall. I had a balcony that overlooked the whole city. I loved it at first.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But after a while, all I could see were the people out there depending on me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're lucky it was just a single city. I've got half of Thedas. You're doing everything you can to protect them. Does it ever get any easier? I'll let you know. I don't envy you, Inquisitor. But I may be able to help you. Baric said that you fought Corypheus before. Fought and killed. The Grey Wardens were holding him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he somehow used his connection to the Darkspawn to influence them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Corypheus got into their heads, messed with their minds, turned them against each other. If the Wardens have disappeared, they could have fallen under his control again. If that's what happened to the Wardens, do you think we can free them? It's possible. But we need to know more first. I've got a friend in the Wardens. He was investigating something unrelated for me. His name is Stroud.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The last time we spoke, he was worried about corruption in the Warden ranks. Since then, nothing. Corypheus would certainly qualify as corruption in the ranks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He told me he'd be hiding in an old smuggler's cave near Crestwood.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Crestwood can't last much longer. I don't want to leave without doing what I can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who will stand against the next blight?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here. The mayor said the dam controls were through this gate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What an unexpected pleasure. Lord Livius Eremond, by Rantium.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sadly for the wardens, the binding ritual I taught their mages has a side effect. They are now my master's slaves. This was a test.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Release the wardens from the binding and surrender. I won't ask twice. No. You won't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course. Sacrificed in the ritual. What a waste. Eremond lied to the wardens. They were trying to prevent future blights. With blood magic and human sacrifice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everyone has a story they tell themselves to justify bad decisions. And it never matters. In the end, you are always alone with your actions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Taking this fortress is going to get a lot of good soldiers killed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The first time I entered the Fade, it looked like a lovely castle filled with gold and silks. I met a marvelous desire demon, as I recall. We chatted and ate grapes before he attempted to possess me. Perhaps the difference is that we are here physically. This is no one's dream. The stories say you walked out of the Fade at Haven. Was it like this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are you... her? Did you linger here to help me instead of passing on?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They might still be useful. What if Corypheus conjures another blight? You never know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The wardens carry out a vital duty, but they also go too far. They need to be controlled.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I suppose we should follow the Divine. Whatever she is, she is our way out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Warden Stroud is dead, thanks to all of you. He alone stood against Clarell's madness. If not for him, you'd be dead. Or slaves to a servant of the Blight. And you repaid that by branding him a traitor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You will answer for a great deal. I recognize none of this proceeding. You have no authority to judge me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a pleasure to meet you Duke Gaspard. I look forward to ending this civil war.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What have you been up to, Gaspard? Time to have a word with the du-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's no need for concern. I've come here to help Orlé.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Go to the ballroom. Find Commander Cullen. He'll keep you safe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're telling me that Empress Selene left you naked in trust like a roast duck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your accent sounds Ferelden. I thought you were one of Gaspard's mercenaries.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's going to attack tonight. What about the peace talks?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Things went according to plan for once. I couldn't be happier.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the mayor has anything to say in his defense, let him speak. There's no cure for the blight!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To fight darkspawn until the calling takes you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We fought to restore order in a time of madness long ago as you do now and we became proud


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Corypheus is a monster with limited ambition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rebuild the Seekers. Make them better than they were.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I couldn't finish the last one you lent me. I actually feel dumber for having tried.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I must be glad that Hawke made it back in one piece. Yep. Closest thing I've ever seen to a miracle there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Perhaps they'll rethink following the darkspawn magister from the dawn of time. Where is Corypheus now?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After you dealt with the Duchess, Corypheus uprooted his major stronghold. He's moving south to the Arbor Wilds. His army clearly wasn't prepared to flee. Our victories have them on the defensive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They've terrorized Thedas long enough. We end them now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Corypheus is hiding in the Arbor Wilds, that's where we'll go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hope you're right about this temple, Morrican. I could use a building or two.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then Corypheus can't really die. We'll find a way to stop him once we're done here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll admit the idea of fighting the last of their kind does not thrill me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The days march, hours of fighting, and still fierce as dragons. The Chantry never knew what it was throwing away. Samson! Sir! Watch out! Inquisitor. You've got a damn long reach. We come to the back end of nowhere. And here you are. You and your red templars weren't my concern. Not until now. You keep getting in over your head, don't you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is that the best you can do? You're no match for Corypheus. Even if you drink from the well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This can't be easy, holding on to what's left.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What would you have done? Backed into a corner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The decision to kill Abalas was mine, Morrigan. Not yours.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not dead. Well that's a relief. So, good? Bad? I'm dying to know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you went through that mirror.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There. An altar in the wilderness. That's where I need to go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have no choice. If Corypheus comes here now... I'll see to Skyhold's defenses in the meantime.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know who I am. The last to drink from your well of sorrows. Come to me, Mithal. Whatever you are, whoever remains.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Inquisitor, we have no forces to send with you. We must wait for them to return from the Arbor Wilds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not such a mystery. We weren't on the best of terms.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For tonight, we remind the world and each other that we're alive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was passing through the hall this morning and a serving girl saw me and squealed


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mind you, I can't say I hate the notion of being the good Tevinter. I suppose you can't all be evil bastards. The blacksmith said that, and he spat when we first met. I hope my father hears. He will shit his small clothes from shock, I swear. You're an example of how noble Tevinter could be. The Southerners may be. Back home, they'll be rolling their eyes behind their fans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Avidar, Sergeant, either one. It's an honor, son of Mahan. You see the smoke stack? Cut the cable support and bring it down. Should create a nice cold, get you inside the facility.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now that's the question, right? I'd save the explosives for the smokestack, the interior, and use the elephants to take out the cable winches. Have fun!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank the maker you finally arrived, Lady Cassandra. I don't think we could have held out much longer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To restore lost knowledge, I would risk much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just so you know, there are quite a few elites guarding the bomb. You may need to get creative.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good. Still no word about it, Amberclad, on the Covenant Battlenet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looks like we're going down. Unless you'd prefer to swim.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've intercepted a secure transmission from Regret's carrier to something called High Charity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Regrets Carrier just received a response from High Charity. A very well-encrypted message from the Prophet of Truth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are two groups of marines in this detention block. I'll zero their locations. You neutralize the guards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've got a fix on truth just outside this tower, Chief. There's an exit nearby, hurry!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not to worry, it's pretty sloppy stuff. I guess they never expected a hostile intelligence to penetrate their network from the inside. The Covenant just destroyed two of their own ships, and I'm hearing reports of small arms fires throughout their fleet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he does, I'll detonate in Emberclad's reactor just like we did the autumns. The blast will destroy this city and the ring. It's not a very original plan, but we know it'll work. No. I don't want to chance a remote detonation. I need to stay here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll disable this lift once you reach the top. That'll slow them down. I hope.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I knew the Covenant was good at repurposing Forerunner technology, but this is amazing. They've been using the Forerunner ship's engines as an energy source for the city.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What are you, special? You wanna see some titties? You gotta pay!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The prisoner had a, uh, unfortunate accident in his cell this morning and, uh, he's on his way to the infirmary.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not looking good. He fell pretty hard. Case dismissed!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am. And you must be the one they are calling the Herald of Andraste.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We do not teach that magic is evil. We teach that pride is evil and does not corrupt only mages. But I did not ask you to come simply to debate with me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Convince the remaining clerics you are no demon to be feared They have heard only frightful tales of you Give them something else to believe


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me put it this way. You needn't convince them all. You just need some of them to doubt. Their power is their unified voice. Take that from them and you'll receive the time you need.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I honestly don't know if you've been touched by fate or sent to help us, but I hope. Hope is what we need now. The people will listen to your rallying call as they will listen to no other.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You could build the Inquisition into a force that will deliver us. Or destroy us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And provide Sister Leliana the names of those in the Chantry who will be amenable to our gathering. It is not much, but I will do whatever I can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They have that luxury thanks to you. The enemy could not follow, and with time to doubt, we turn to blame. In fighting may threaten as much as this Corypheus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They know. But our situation, your situation is complicated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The more the enemy is beyond us, the more miraculous your actions appear, and the more our trials seem ordained. That is hard to accept, no? What we have been called to endure? What we perhaps must come to believe?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You deal with the walls and our farmers will be safe again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've lost too many men to the beasts. I won't endanger more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They call you the Herald of Andraste for what you did at Haven. But are you? The Maker has not told me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Stories of you master in the rifts are just blind heresy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The chantry has fallen and shown its imperfection in doing so. The chant of light was a lie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was arrogance to think that mortal lips could frame the Maker's will. And so we wait in silence. The Maker has opened the sky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Soon he will call his chosen back to the Golden City.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh! You think you're a tough guy, Lenny? Hmm? Tough guy? Stop it! Come on man, you a tough guy?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come on! Come on, you tough guy! Come on, man! No! Come on! Okay, I'll show you!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's great to have you in here, fellow podcaster. I'm sure this is going to be a prosperous conversation. You were just telling me about how somebody might actually enjoy the fact that I have a cracked kneecap and that it looks kind of funky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you had a little less going for you in life, you think that you might be one of those girls?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you're looking at the people who are writing letters to Charles Manson and shit and all those girls that are trying to date felons, I think that-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's going to take a very specific type of dude to be able to handle that I guess, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, yeah, that's cool, but I mean, and for us, for the most part, I feel like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, and in my head, it's like, I know smoke perp. I know that smoke perp probably.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like they would be okay with being classified that way. They know what it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I was more of just a regular ass jabroni, it was kinda like, you know, all the people I know who just go to the bar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But like with my girl, like we, there's no birth control, no condoms, no pill, no nothing. Oh, y'all trying to have a baby? Nah, but I've been fucking her for like three years without a condom and I just pull out every single time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And really up until recently I was the kind of guy where if I got a girl pregnant, she would probably definitely want to get rid of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just want, I don't know, I just feel like there's, there's a certain like thing that like a Jamaican young lady grows up with. They have to be really, really careful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Use this stuff and that's great too. So I definitely think that, you know, there's, there's swordsmen out there far more accomplished than myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I highly advise everybody out there, if you head on over to bluetooth.com, you will get your first order free when you use promo code adam22. Just pay $5 shipping. It's a great way to support the podcast. So yeah, bluetooth.com, promo code adam22.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me ask you this. How did you get interested in exploring men's anal cavities?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was so weirded out to be honest. I never really wanted to see a guy get fucked in the ass with a strap on to be honest. It's like in that moment I was just like, wow, I am so not gay. Like I really know right now that I'm not gay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yea, I mean, so, so you just like that, that feeling of dominating a guy. I do. So is it like every guy that you end up spending time with is a potential mark for you in the strap on? Is that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's wild, dude. That's so crazy to be an adult and still be like, basically grounded. Like, I just can't, ooh. Yeah, I have friends who are on probation and shit who like, they're not supposed to be doing drugs, but then they always just end up going to jail again because they just can't stop. See, yeah, well that's what happens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, so you couldn't imagine yourself being in anything even sort of committed at this point or what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, we got some money now, but I feel like every time I walk into that house, I'm just sort of thinking of like, this is a couple years of not buying any designer clothes or really any clothes in general. Right, right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the progressive woke version of this, the Murphy Brown approach is supposed to be that no, we want single women to be making babies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, but I mean some significant percentage of them have done, you know, significant amount of stuff in the streets or whatever. Gucci's like the rare person that killed somebody, got off on self-defense, everybody knows about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Chance the Rapper got like the worst album reviews of all time because he put out a really happy album about how much he loves being married.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, people can make the argument that that album isn't good just because of the music or whatever, but it does feel like there's a certain extent to which people just don't want to hear your overwhelming happiness, that they're just not going to be able to go for that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know. That's interesting. No, I saw, I just saw Fugitive tear down like a huge crowd in England though for a wireless fest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a gift. From an old connection. It's been off the grid for a couple of years now. Code name Birdie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't you think that our priority is on reacquiring the girl right now?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Make a choice. And we'll see what happens. And, uh, for the two of me, so, uh, what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I do believe that, uh, they're very tough. They're very well prepared. They read everything, uh, especially media.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What makes them so tough, uh, it's not just their culture, but the fact that they have been isolated. They've been sanctioned.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, hardly any of them, the citizens, leave North Korea. They have television that's programmed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the deity, it's the leaders, the grandfather, the father, now Kim Jong Un, that are not just political figures, they're God-like religious figures. And what they say determines how North Koreans act.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're both very much alike. They're autocratic. They're unpredictable. And, uh, it could come out a decent outcome, but we're unsure. And I've said to the Trump administration,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The gamble of talking to Kim Jong Un is a huge gamble. But I think it's the right gamble. Uh, but be prepared. They're relentless.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we're not prepared, we don't have our act together, we-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Put up unrealistic expectations. They're going to outsmart us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've seen that train. Nobody else can ride in that train. The good news is that he's starting to talk to other leaders.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're going to China to ask for something. And that's diplomacy. That's, you know, you get squeezed, you do something. And this is a rational actor, Kim Jong Un, taking these steps. I believe. I'm not sure. I'm not there, but this is what he's probably doing.

[Assistant] Diplomacy is not Twitter or Facebook or press releases or cable news diplomacy is

[Assistant] United Nations Commission of Inquiry said there's no other parallel in contemporary history except Nazi Germany, and this is North Korea. I don't think there's another country that's more isolated than North Korea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] North Koreans figured out how to work United States. So there's usually a provocation of some sort, whether it's a missile test or a new test. And then there's international condemnation that follows. And then they sort of...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Up the ante, like a poker game. Oh yeaah, here's more. And then sort of we have a collective, uh, oh no! And then they step back and say okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And here's what we can do. They have some sort of charm offensive, peace offensive, then we meet with them, we negotiate, we give them aid. Some rewards, some time passes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just can't possibly fathom that. So I think that was President Trump speaking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was the reason why the United States put North Korea in the state sponsor of terrorist. And it also shows you just the brutality and just the insanity, uh, because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They downed a civilian airliner, killing 115 people on board, just to disrupt the Olympics that was going to be held in South Korea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] North Koreans won on that whole image makeover contest. Kim Yo-jong was called Ivanka of the Kim administration. She was hugely popular in South Korea. She seemed human. She seemed normal. She was charming. She was smiling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then when the joint team walked in, it's not only North Korean Olympians. There were South Korean Olympians that were walking in. You can stand up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't stand up and cheer because it's your ally. Your South Korea is hosting the Olympics and you're seeing the South Korean athletes also coming in with North Korean athletes. So you should stand up and be welcoming. I don't think we score any kind of points on the image front.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think he was doing a couple of things. I think he was trying to get some sort of sanctions relief, some sort of see where China is in all of that, assure China that China's interests will be protected. But I think also took an opportunity to sort of showcase himself as a leader.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Drinking, laughing, talking. So it's just a great image makeover for Kim. And I think he was very smart, uh, to have done that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, it was really interesting to watch Kim Jong Un in terms of body language, his voice, how he was handling himself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's nothing like his father, who actually wasn't a very big introvert and was not social. He looked like Kim Il Sung to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His grandfather, he was warm, he was effusive, he was touchy-feely, almost affectionate, he laughed wholeheartedly. So he came across as actually a charming person, a social person who can engage with people laughing and joking. So all of that was very interesting to me as a Korean watcher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not all just U.S. maximum pressure strategy that led to this point. I think Kim Jong Un himself had a strategy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now he gets to sit down with the President of the United States for the first time. It shows that Kim Jong-un is a different kind of leader.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So when North Koreans hear John Bolton say we're pursuing a Libyan model, I think this is not helpful because North Koreans are always, they are afraid of becoming another Libya.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's multiple and overlapping interests and not all of them are aligned. This is, it's very complicated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A deal with the United States might look like and what does China think of it? Because you really need China's buy-in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Meanwhile, our ally Japan is very unhappy how things are unfolding, even though they can't really quite say it, because they are so worried that United States is going to make a deal with North Korea that protects U.S. interests.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kim Jong-un only had a very short amount of time to build his legitimacy within the regime. Kim Jong-il, by comparison, had 30 years to create his legitimacy. Kim Jong-un had none of this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The first thing that happened is they had the missile test, which was a failure. But what does North Korea do? They admit it was a failure, unprecedented. Why did they do that? Gave people pause to think that maybe this was something different. Kim Jong Un laid down the Rosetta Stone of where he wanted to take this regime. People would no longer have to tighten their belts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was an important statement by Kim Jong Un. There was no mention whatsoever of the nuclear program in that speech.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because that's not where Kim Jong-il wanted his legacy. That was Kim Jong-il's legacy, was the nuclear program.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His legacy was to create the strong and prosperous nation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This would be the launching of the Kim Jong-un era. He had to show legitimacy. And if he couldn't show legitimacy on the economic realm, he had to show legitimacy in the security realm. And so he began to move very quickly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The nuclear program is intimately tied into two primary objectives.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For Kim Jong Un and the North Korean regime. One is the survival of the regime, and two is the perpetuation of the Kim family rule. And the nuclear program is intimately tied into that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we do hard things and we challenge ourselves as humanity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, to take on big challenges. It brings us together and it pushes us to develop new technologies, new ideas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think North Korean officials have played a weak hand just brilliantly while I think the U.S. approach has to some degree backfired. Essentially the U.S. I think was trying to intimidate


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I think what we actually accomplished was that we terrified South Korea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Into engaging in diplomacy with North Korea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, repeatedly, you have very smart officials who, when they're out of power, they talk about military options and then


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We indeed have likewise not fulfilled some of our obligations, uh, to North Korea. Uh, but the last best hope of trying to resolve some of these issues is going to be to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rely on diplomacy. There's no other way. There's no alternative to try to resolve this crisis except to try to negotiate a better one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] President Trump appreciated the briefing and said he would meet Kim Jong Un by May.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To achieve permanent denuclearization.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I think right now it's time for a little redemption. A little red lobster redemption.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I also tracked the people down. And I got your pen back. Redemption.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Libya, we knew at the time, was a very pro-revolutionary country under Gaddafi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they were training Africans to be guerrilla fighters. We had all sorts of intelligence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Informing us about that. And, uh, so, Taylor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Other Liberians whom he could recruit went into training there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We go inside and Charles Taylor is sitting there on a kind of a throne. It looked like a throne. And the first thing that struck me is he had a, behind him was hanging a large picture of President John F. Kennedy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Mrs. Kennedy, who was up there. So he saw himself like that. He saw himself as a great leader.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He said to me, you know, if you want to stop this war, just send in a battalion of Marines. We'll all surrender, he said. We'll all surrender. US Marines, we all surrender.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I sent word back to Washington and word quickly came back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Secretary Cohen, you are under instructions not to take charge of this war, so please do not do that. So I just went, I said okay, and I went about my business.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't close down a plantation. You can't wrap up, you know, five million trees and take them away.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you want to preserve what you can, and so you have to make deals.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I ain't here yet, but, uh, Kodak been acting up on Instagram, you know, especially saying some dis- disrespectful shit about Lauren Longden. He tryna diss T.I. I'm out to check that shit out and see what's up with it. He been on one, but I f- You gon' drop your own diss track? Who am I gonna diss? Kodak. I can diss Kodak, bud.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't listen to Kodak. Kodak's a bitch. Fuck you, Kodak Black.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I greet you, Warden. And you, champion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In truth, proving my existence either way would require time we do not have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You do not remember what happened at the Temple of Sacred Ashes, Inquisitor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The memories you have lost were taken by the demon that serves Corypheus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is why I found you. When you entered the Fade at heaven, the demon took apart of you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you believe in the maker, then you believe he made this world and everything in it, including your accident. And if you do not, then nothing has changed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If that is the story you wish to tell, it is not a bad one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in my own postmortem of why didn't things turn out better in Afghanistan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the questions that lingers that hangs over this is why we did not actually try to incorporate the Taliban into the new


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you have a situation where our partners, to whom we're paying billions of dollars a year in various forms of security and economic assistance, basically are slow rolling us. The bottom line is that the Pakistanis were very duplicitous. We had a sense that they were confronting this and the reality was that they were not going to do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The problem in Afghanistan had been that we'd never even had the right big ideas, the right overarching strategy. You just can't drone strike and Delta Force your way out of the problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The overriding mission of counterinsurgency has to be to secure the people. We must be partners, they are good neighbors. To do that, you have to, in Iraq, live among the people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What we are doing is what we call full spectrum operations. The only way to do this is to apply all of these tools, not just conventional forces, which are...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The military operation of clearing bad guys from an area and then holding it. It also includes helping the host nation forces to reestablish basic services.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To get the economy going again, to rebuild the damage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, there's no question that we asked an enormous amount of our soldiers, sailors, airmen, marines, those on the ground in particular.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My own son was out there as a rifle platoon leader. I have a pretty good understanding of what we asked of our men and women in uniform.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Laverio's president, William Talbert, a descendant of American slaves and a good friend of the U.S., was assassinated today in a coup led by an army enlisted man who said that they're fed up with the government corruption. The new head of the government is the 28-year-old sergeant named Samuel Dole.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here I am sitting beneath the floor, level being right here, of a three-room elite residence up on the hilltop. And here, just beneath the floor, are a few capstones covering a dedicatory offering.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Confirming our suspicions that this is a human burial, this is a lower incisor right here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this demonstrates to us that this offering is part of the burial underneath dedicating this house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm finding a much greater diversity of plant food items that were consumed, ingredients in stews and soups, squash, beans, free foods, chili peppers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What an unexpected pleasure. I was not aware the Inquisition would be part of our festivities. We will certainly speak later, Inquisitor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Inquisitor Lavellan. We met briefly. I am Grand Duchess Floriane de Chaloux. Welcome to my party.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have the Dalish gained a certain passion for politics? What do you know about our civil war?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One would hope the Inquisitions leaders had a proper understanding of politics. It took great effort to arrange tonight's negotiations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know you arrived here as a guest of my brother Gaspar, and have been everywhere in the palace. You are a curiosity to many, Inquisitor, and a matter of concern to some.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The attack will come soon. We must stop Gaspar before he strikes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Inquisitor, what a pleasure. I wasn't certain you'd attend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, poor rabbit. It was cruel of your handlers to send you to be trampled underfoot. It was kind of you to walk into my trap so willingly. I was so tired of your meddling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, my dear Inquisitor, you are so naive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A pity you'll miss the rest of the ball, Inquisitor. They'll be talking of it for years. Kill him and bring me his marked hand. It will make a fine gift for the master.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You stole the moment of my triumph, just as you stole the demon army from Errimond.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And now you've chased a defenseless woman into the garden. Are you proud of yourself?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The night is still young. All I need to recover is to kill you, Inquisitor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In that time they wanted to destroy the local government of Afghanistan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In that time, that was their initial interest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tonight's program contains mature content which may not be suitable for all audiences. Viewer discretion is advised.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I took a bath dust yesterday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So normally we got the big fat fuckin' 8th California Melrose fuckin' doinks. This is uh, this is probably like a .8.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Perth pack right here, you know, we appreciate it, but this is about what you're gonna get.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nasty Nook has put one of his most devious henchmen in charge of the artisan world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Be careful, Spyro. This boss has many tricks up his sleeve.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, many of you insisted that these should go together, so I decided that, you know, last week we took a break from Miraculous,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, kinda over the holiday weekend as well in America, uh, I just wanted a little bit of a break cause we've done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The two parts, season finale, and then both of the specials back to back, so it just needed like a little bit of a week off from Miraculous, but now


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have said this, but I'll say it again. I am planning to take season four just a little bit slower.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, there will not be a miraculous week. I just want that on the record. Most episodes are probably gonna be singular. Uh, double episodes will be pretty rare, but that's kinda my plan, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just don't, I don't want to get fully caught up in Miraculous yet. I know season 5 is airing rather slow. I also kind of want to wait because I don't know if they're going to air out of order again. I know this is a thing that happens a lot in Miraculous's fandom. So I'd rather just kind of wait it out and, you know, watch them when I can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'm hyped, hope you guys are as well. Uh, please keep in mind to support the official release of Miraculous Ladybug over on Disney+. And if you like my reactions and want to see the next episode early, you can check out my Patreon page, link down in the description below to support the channel over there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now we have to deal with Luca, cause you forget everything when you're akumatized so he doesn't remember that this is dad. Will we tell him it's his dad? Is it better? I guess Julica knows, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For this, I didn't even- I didn't even get to enjoy myself for one episode. Before they just wrecked it. I had like-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love Luca. I will always stand by Luca. I will give him all my love and attention. But...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Really put that nail in the coffin for me. I will fangirl for Luka for days. But them being together is just dead for me. Obviously, she can't let go of Luka. Girl's got a real problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And only Adrienne can fix it. Oh my gosh, I can't, I just can't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Physically painful to watch. Like, I can't stress that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm willing to, to top it out, yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then just his little heart absolutely breaking. Ugh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not ashamed to admit it. I cried for the boy. He's so good. He's just so good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I get Marinette's got her own stuff going on, I get it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Obviously I don't think she should have a boyfriend at all because obviously she has way too much on her plate now and that she needs to get it figured out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before she can do that, and I think it's important to also remember Master Fu. Master Fu wasn't able to be with the woman he loved because he had this responsibility.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Truly, I think if she ever wants to move on with her life and actually like, date somebody,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then she either needs to date Adrian because number one, they both will run off at the same time and come back and not ask questions, okay? Because they literally both have to go do the same job unknowingly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So she actually wants to date someone it's best to date Adrienne cause it'll work out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or she needs to go find a new holder for the Ladybug Miraculous. We know she does not do that because we know that Ladybug...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's still the same ladybug in the future. We don't know about Cat Noir though. Cat Noir could be different. The suit was the same, but we don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Ladybug was still our Ladybug because it still was Marinette's voice. Or should I say, Christina V's older voice. So we know that much. But yea, I-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I understand the Luca thing's not gonna work out. I knew it from the start. You don't have to say anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it still hurts, okay? I can still feel pain over this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And him in the end just hugging her and just being like, when you're ready, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, he's just too good. Boy is way too good. I literally just... I can't handle his cuteness, like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or does Julica have a different dad?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm unsure. I'm kinda curious. Like, did my mom get around? Not shaming her, just curious if she- if they're both his. Cause aren't they like- are they just siblings or are they twins? I don't remember.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a good, bad episode to come back to, it really just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It really soured my mood for the entire season. Like, I did not expect to just bawl my eyes out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the first episode back, I was so pumped to see what happens, and now I'm just like, oh, nice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't even get a few episodes of Marinette and Luca, I just get immediately shot down. Awesome. I love it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Irregardless, still interested, Hawk Moth now has the, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hawk Moth and the Peacock Miraculous. Butterfly and the, uhm, Peacock.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I kinda will miss Natalie if she's not around, but is she still sickly?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or is she going to recover now that she's not using it anymore? I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like Kagami. I really like her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is actually the worst response to get back. Can I think about it? No I don't. But Getting, do you love me too? Excuse me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It worked out, but way too, way too reckless. It is pretty terrifying now that we have to deal consistently with a senti monster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And an akumatized person. That's a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so that was really cool to have. I think we've done this one other time, or at least it was in the same episode, the wax museum one. But I really like the way this one was structured, that we had truth and lies, just these parallels we have going on that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Luca wants the truth from Marinette and his mom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Meanwhile, Kagami also wants the truth, but for her it was more so punishing people for lying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So very interesting. And he's still, uhm, what I find unique about Luca in this situation was Luca was like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's trying his best to understand the situation. It just hurts though. You know, when you love and trust someone and give them so much and you don't get it in return, it sucks. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I absolutely get it. And for Kagami, she's lying?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To her mom, who she respects greatly. Maybe questions her mom, but does respect her mother and what her mother thinks of her. So her lying to her mom, you know, is hurting Kagami, cause she's like, I'm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lying so that we can spend time together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you can't even see and recognize and appreciate what I am doing so that we can hang out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Parallel situations going on for the two of them. And I definitely...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I definitely hope Kagami is not just gone forever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hope she comes back. I would assume Luca since they didn't say like, I'm gonna go. It seems like Luca will stick around, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know about Kagami. It really sounded like Kagami is like, we'll talk when I want to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So uhm, I'm a little bit nervous. I really like Kagami. I don't want her character just to disappear on us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm, I'm a little bit sad and a little disappointed because I really like her and I, I'm also just, I'm grieving for her a bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I know she has already kind of processed that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Adrian might have some unrequited unknowing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Feelings for Marinette that he is not outwardly conscious of?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That he's not even really understanding himself. Uh, I think back to the ice skating episode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where Kagami basically watched as Marinette kind of like stormed off and Adrian's like, uh, Marinette, or she fell or whatever? Yeah, she fell and he came racing over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I think Kugami's smart enough to understand that and I think she also knows pretty well that Marinette also has some feelings for Adrian. So I think her seeing the Lucky Charm


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That Adrian had it with him really hurt her badly. Just knowing and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Getting jealous because she's like, are you running off to go see Marinette?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I get why she's thinking that's happening. Obviously she doesn't know. But.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if he's holding onto this charm, maybe it's to go hang out one more time so that he can be around Marinette and he doesn't want to be around Kagami alone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which definitely hurt. So I feel bad for her. I think she's a lovely character. I think she's very interesting and I like that we have this character who


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can understand the box that Adrian's put in, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Still feels lonely around Adrian because he...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Has other responsibilities, which is kind of beyond his control. But yet, he does like Kagami, he does want to be around her, he just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Already have these responsibilities placed upon them being Ladybug and Cat Noir and they can't tell the other person that's what they're doing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the whole superhero dilemma of balancing superhero-ness with normal life stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So overall, very, very interesting. It's just like really, really sad though, cause


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Luka and Kagami are both very lovely characters. I very much enjoy them. Luka being this sweet, understanding individual. And Kagami being this very strong, fun, fun in her own way. But this character who's learning and growing and felt like she had some connection with someone else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just to be shot down by them and still feel like nobody wants to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Around her basically. It's very sad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we have the absolute heartbreakingness, which, yes, I cried in the first episode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought the worst thing someone could do is say no to you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, that's ten times more heartbreaking, cause number one, they weren't even listening to you confessing. Which is so much worse. And then, literally, for him to be like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They both should just be single. Single, don't bother with a relationship. If they need to be, I guess it works best with each other, because then they're not gonna ask questions. They both are gonna run off at the same time, so it just works out. But oh my god.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was heart-shattering to see Kagami have to go through that as well. Of course, I balled so much for Luka, but honestly, if the Kagami portion was the first episode and then Luka was the second episode,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would have cried for Kagami. It's just I had already cried so much for Luca that I just couldn't cry again. I definitely still would have cried for Kagami. I just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I already had tears, and I just couldn't muster- I shouldn't say muster up, that sounds bad. I- I just couldn't cry anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause I already was so sad from Luka that's like, oh good, more sadness. Like, it's just great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my gosh, but wow. Bro, I hate season 4.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So sad. Granted, I know in my heart they were like together for like maybe a couple days a week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cuz he was like, remember we talked about this, we were planning to go to this as a date, you know? At least they were together, I can know they were together for a few days.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I didn't get to see it, so it might as well have not happened at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like to feel pain, so I like, I like my two individuals who are not gonna be together together. I just like pain, okay? My masochist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is Marinette just going to keep fawning over Adrian throughout this season?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or she's still gonna go with the mentality of what she said, where she's like, I can't have a boyfriend at all if I'm ladybug.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, is that going to carry through? She's gonna still be like, I'm, I'm done fawning over him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or she's still going to. Obviously she's still gonna have those feelings, but she's going to try to push it away. Like she did in the New York special basically. Like is she still gonna do that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, but I'm very interested to continue watching and see where the season goes. Like I said, I know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People are very divided on this season, so I have heard some of you actually came back because of this season, but I have heard a lot of people


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Drop the show because of this season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Episodes and stuff and then he's just back to normal. I was like, nah, nah fam. Not in my house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm just here to feel pain again with Miraculous now too, so whatever. But no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I said, I, I know they weren't gonna be together. Obviously, it's Ladybug and Cat Noir, Adrienne and Marinette. I get it. But a girl can hope and dream. And maybe with enough magic and luck, it'll work out for me. But obviously not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yeaah. So, what a way to start off season 4. I'm definitely excited to see what else this season holds for us. Uh, especially now with Sha- Shadow Moth? Is that what he's called?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, it'll be interesting and I want to see more of Marinette being the guardian and her chooosing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, the miraculous holders and when they'll come into play and along with that, I'm also really curious to see, uh, who this Zoe girl is in the open?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Obviously she's important, so I wonder when she'll come into play. It'll be cool! And of course, Lila will show up too at some point, so I'm excited to see Lila as well! And I'm also interested to see how Chloe will.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come into play this season as well since she knows the identities of the miraculous holders


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's interesting. It's spicy. So very excited to continue watching more Miraculous. Hope you guys are enjoying this just as much as I am Please keep in mind you like this video to like share subscribe all that fun jazz and I will see you all later


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everest was first summited in 1953 by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzin Norgay. Before then, it had seemed an almost impossible feat. But as you may have seen on the news recently, since then, climbing Everest has become dangerously popular.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, there's actually a number of reasons that explain the persistence of the crowds at Everest, as this Sherpa explains.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in some years, like this one, bad weather shrinks that time down to just a few days, which was fine when climbing Everest was relatively rare. In fact, for the first 35 years after Hillary and Norgay, there were a total of just 260 ascent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You might think it's hard to stand out, but some have bent over backwards to make their climb unique, from the oldest to get to the top, to the youngest, to all this nonsense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's the job of some Sherpas known as Icefall Doctors to prepare the crossing for climbers each season. And for a sense of just how dangerous this job is,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Please take your anxiety medicine of choice and watch this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Severus Sherpa actually ranks among the most dangerous occupations on Earth. And yet, many are willing to do this work because there aren't many jobs that pay as well in that region. And the fact that they are risking their lives for the ambitions of well-off climbers is uncomfortable to square, no matter how hard some might try.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just watch one TV presenter ask a Sherpa to help him grapple with the morality of what he's asking him to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's true. If you're going with a commercial tour, you don't need much technical ability to climb Everest. Theoretically, I could do it if I just trained a little. And I know what you're thinking. With that body, Jon, is there any way you could be training harder? And you are right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Climbers on Everest can experience something called summit fever. They just want to get to the top, not considering whether they'll have enough energy to get back down. And it can be hard to make good decisions up there. The area above 26,000 feet has only 30% of the oxygen that there is at sea level. It is called the death zone. And what it can do to your body is brutal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Guiding companies could also turn down unqualified climbers, and to be fair, many good ones do. Unfortunately, many bad ones do not. Take the case of Sria Shah-Clawthine, a Canadian woman who decided to climb Everest despite having no serious climbing experience at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And slow, inexperienced climbers aren't just a danger to themselves. They can be a danger to everybody else. Remember, the top of Everest is just two ping-pong tables.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the route down is sometimes single file. And if people aren't moving, you can get stuck. Just listen to some experienced guides. Worry about a client who's already summited but who can't get down because of a bunch of people who probably shouldn't be there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But until Nepal does that, there will continue to be deaths that could have been prevented. And you cannot help but question the motives behind some of these climes. Even Sir Edmund Hillary was depressed at what he had seen Mount Everest become.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These guys have been giving me a lot of stank out over the things I've been saying about the Golden Path, so that makes sense. Okay, new plan then.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Preemptive cavalry, that's right, you need help, you call, we swoop in and help you, me or my, uh, uh, Golden Path? Golden Path buddies, that's right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You and me, man. New and improved tat bros. That's right, living the dream. Come on, punch it in!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Walk with me. You, you tried to kill me. And now I'm not. You know what? Fuck you. Stop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In these commercial expeditions, the, the guides work pretty hard getting their customers up. But all the customers really want to do is to try and get to the top of the mountain and then come down and boast about it to their friends at home. Very few of them, and I've talked to many of them, very few of them have a deep feeling of love for the mountains.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We find eight of these bands that suggests, in fact, that it wasn't just like one massive drought. It was probably a series of droughts that have durations of about three to twenty years. And, you know, every time things would get going again,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They would get pounded with a fairly long duration drought.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is the problem. ISIS claims to have infiltrated many hundreds of fighters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So on important strategic subjects that affect the whole of Europe, Europe's security, we have difficulty in finding a consensus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not by chance that the whole network was based in Belgium and not in France or Italy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] November 13th should never have happened. The Brussels attacks should never have happened. The flaws in the European system are multiple. They're institutional.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not just that we're getting more calls, it's that the folks who are calling us are in greater distress.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, we're getting all these folks who are telling us for the first time they can't pay their bills, they can't make ends meet. And often when they say that, they say, I'm a good person, I've always paid my bills before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, these are folks who had been making it before, and we're solidly middle class now, and today are struggling to make ends meet, struggling to keep their utilities on, struggling to stay in their apartment or their home, and are really in danger of falling out of the middle class. Like, it's a shrinking middle class problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's not just that we're getting more calls, it's that the folks who are calling us are in greater distress. Because now instead of calling us because they're just behind on their credit cards, they're calling us because they're behind on their credit cards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they're behind on their utilities and they're struggling with their housing payment. They are facing greater economic challenges, I think, and more diverse economic challenges than what they faced just a few years ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tonight, the economic alarms are blaring.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tonight, the economic alarms are blaring.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, that would provide the needed financial assistance that we needed for the revolution. How?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't deal direct with AT&T. We do work for the vendors, uh, the turf vendors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would make phone calls, open the door. Once I got them in, they pretty much took it from there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think everybody does that was involved with it. I think all of the, I think Turf Fender does, I think everybody does. Anytime somebody dies. Uhm, I was not...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Once you leave men alone, the men have to police themselves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] AT&T, may everybody have a stand down, discuss the deaths.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why it happened, what will happen to you if you get caught free climbing. They require that of every single turf fender.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nationwide. Didn't matter who you were, where you were at, you had a stand-down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For the carrier to do it. And it's good for the turf vendor because they're making a lot of profit off the project. But it's not good for the person down, when it gets to the field where the work's gotta be done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a lot of good companies that won't work for them because their money's not there. So rather than paying this amount to this guy, he's really qualified, he's been in the business, has a great reputation, they hire this person over here because he's available right now and he'll do it for what we want him to do it for.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wouldn't say that the turf vendor doesn't know. I think the turf vendor


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This turns a blind eye to it because his contract is with subcontractor B. It's his responsibility.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is what I call a prom date. Are we going the whole day? Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't even know you like that, like I have to have a good knowledge of you, so. We've spent, we've drank.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't even have the energy to lift my arm to that bell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The object does come from outside the solar system. Your computations were correct, Cape Crusader.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We cannot fix it from here. Green Lantern, I will require your assistance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Green Lantern of Sector 2814. I can hold the intruders until assistance arrives. The matter of the alien object cannot wait. Find out as much as you can and report back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is a relief to see you, Green Lantern of Sector 2A. How?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was not part of the plan, but we must defend ourselves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Greetings, Star Sapphire. I bring word from Hal Jordan. We need your help in reverting the damage done by Brainiac to the planet Earth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Saint Walker, this is Martian Manhunter. We have engaged the Reach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before you were naval intelligence, but you... You're something else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I supplied the tools to maintain that efficiency.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Our best bet to figure out who's boarding us is the observation deck. Four floors up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maloch can happen in four years. Either way, he's probably not alone. We should be careful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The good news is these Covenant aren't outfitted like standard military. It's possible we just came across a rogue salvage ship.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've got bigger problems. We've got a cruiser on an intercept course. Head for the elevator banks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, but since the ship was torn in half, we can't access the weapon stations. We'll have to fire them manually from the outer hull.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The auxiliary launch station should be to your left out of the airlines. You'll have to prime the launch for ignition!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What is that? Chief, see if that terminal is still active.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think so. The pattern's different. I'll try to triangulate its position.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wardhoves, and still in one piece. Nice to see your luck is holding out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, as far as I know, I'm the only AI ever generated from living tissue. A clone of Dr. Halsey, to be precise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It may be possible to recompile my neural net by replicating those same conditions, but that means getting back to Halsey soon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Chief, I'm hearing that strange signal again. Stronger this time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In service of Forerunner Shieldworld, designate Requiem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm detecting power fluctuations in several locations I'll put them up for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hopefully we can find some way to get this cartographer back online.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's alright. This energy is actually a ferroelectric data field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This type of processing system usually works in parallel. Will have to locate its twin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She was supposed to be massive, but the project was only in prototype when we left.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See, the covenant net's going crazy. They're ordering all units to converge on the tower.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Related to the sentinels, I'm guessing, but it's hard to say without a closer look. Come on, let's figure out where that transit system dumped us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Negative. This is as close as I could get us. Hope you don't mind hoofin' it a little.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Similar cortical footprint as the tower AIs. They're connected alright.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From that peek under the hood, I'd say these constructs must be mimetic in nature.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Similar phasing activity at the edge of our sensors. We're about to get busy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the big ones explode, that momentary flash we're seeing is actually a data purge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So far, I've pulled multiple strings referring to the big ones as Promethean Knights. Beyond that though, things get a bit dense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They'll get caught in the gravity well. I'll keep trying to warn them. You just get that beam down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Already done. Go! Once we're on the satellite, there's bound to be a central control point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Covenant are making a push for something on the far side of the satellite.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of them's an officer. Check his IFF tag.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the friend or foe tag, but where's whoever it belongs to?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A topographical scan of the area shows a break in the foliage north of here. Should be big enough to bring him a dropship.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're good to go, Chief. Let's show these Spartans how it's done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's possible that they're native to Requiem, or whatever counts as native for a forerunner AI.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Interesting. These symbols are a derivation of the Forerunner glyph system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Almost like those sentinels wanted us to get the particle cannons offline.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cortana to infinity. The guns should be offline. How's it look from up there? Infinity!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Chief, what happened? Your bio readings are all over the map.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before this is all over, promise me you'll figure out which one of us is the machine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we disrupt their communications, I can forge an override code and convince it to lower those defenses.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I found the carrier wave generator. It's on the opposite end of this chamber.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We can use this gondola to cross to the other side. Find the activation switch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Installation 3. It's where Infinity found the coordinates for Requiem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What are you waiting for? That station's not gonna save itself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Inventory lists seven excavation-grade havoc mines. Just one of those would turn this base into a piñata.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We thought, okay, here is a disease that we have dealt with for a number of decades before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know, in our own mind, we had the idea that Ebola was something which was severe, but typically occurred in a certain way and then could be handled.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We felt that if you simply go around and say things are out of control or they're this way or whatever in a categorical way, it really doesn't help.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And at this time, we knew that we had something which was not ordinary, but we are not dealing yet with a full blown, uhm, you know, global crisis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Encoded in the double helix are the experiences of our ancestors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After three decades of research, our engineers have forged the cutting edge of biotechnological interfaces. We have unlocked the lives of our forebears. We have opened a window into the past.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is Total Immersion Entertainment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the press of a button, you will experience the most pivotal moments in history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All from the comfort of home. Welcome to Helix.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where the past is your playground.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, je ne sais pas, quelle était leur vision de dire, de prendre seulement les cas parce que certainement le nombre de cas


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We would be changing a fish and wildlife system into a mining district.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This area is extraordinarily vulnerable to toxins and pollution because the groundwater penetrates so deeply and moves so freely from stream to stream.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But also, there's absolute certainty that stretches of productive salmon and trout river will be dewatered. That will simply pump the water out of them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because in order to have a deep pit, you gotta keep it dry, and the bottom of the pit is well below the level of the lake. So it'll be constantly pumping out and dewatering streams. I mean, that's an absolute certain effect on those populations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Copper is toxic at high levels. It simply kills fish. But the typical toxic effects are much more pernicious and much less visible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For example, the fish, they use a sense of smell to locate the stream in which they were spawned, in which they were going to themselves breed before they die.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would be a huge and very, very fundamental change in the way of life forever. If this particular mine is permitted, the whole land use in that region would go not progressively but relatively rapidly to a mining district.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the question is, who has the authority to make that decision? Because there's no specific permit for changing the Bristol Bay region into a mining district.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You'll be happy to learn I've persuaded Olivier to leave off calling the Marshalsy. Again. What is this? The sixth time? The seventh? Perhaps a new hobby might be better for your health.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, the son of Charles Dorion returns to us. Belek thought you wouldn't come, but changed your mind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These are the words spoken by our ancestors. The words that lay at the heart of our creed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shaking down imprisoned nobles seems a bit out of his oeuvre. What are the Templars up to? We hadn't spent the last year


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very well. Assassin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I charge you to go to Notre Dame de Paris, and to find there the Templar agent, Charles-Gabriel Sivere. You will learn his secrets, and when you have done so, you will bring him peace, in accordance with our tenets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Parishioners found a body in Notre Dame today. The wags are already calling him the Penitent. I take it justice has been done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You've proved yourself a true assassin today, and a true assassin must have a proper


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A modest little update from the traditional Assassin's Blade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Assassin, this council charges you to go to La Cour des Miracles. Find there the Templar agent Leroy de Tune. Learn his secrets and bring him peace.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Taken altogether, they have the political acumen of an especially stupid village council. I believe that excuses my appearance, young man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hope you have happier news. What of Lord Delassay's murderers? The King of Beggars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Templars do nothing simply, do they? Do you have anything solid on this mysterious chess player?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Seems your course is clear. Find the silversmith, learn what party plays.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hold hot air and no action! Here's a man with good news, I think. Oh no. What did you learn from the silversmith?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very well. I suppose the course is clear, Arno.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He did ask permission this time, Geo. Go then, see what you can learn. But, no more rash action.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For heaven's sake, take that blindfold off. Ridiculous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you cannot see the advantage in being owed a favor by Frostward Lassere's daughter, I despair for our future.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Continue, mademoiselle de la serre. Oh, here we go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Plainly, this discussion is better conducted in private. If you'll excuse us, mademoiselle Lasser.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah no, perhaps you should accompany her. I'm sure you two have much to talk about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the largest contained gold and contained copper concentration in all of North America.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you took the current metal prices in the London exchange and applied that to the current estimates of metal in the ground, then the value of the deposit for all the metal in the ground that we know of today is in excess of 200 billion dollars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, he's left a lovely trail.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, you're just in time for the commencement of my reign. Your reign.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As long as there's a cours des miracles, we must have a roi des thunes. And since there seemed to be a vacancy, I stepped in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I may have set things in motion a trifle early. Say, when you first arrived at La Cour des Mirages, you used me. Your target is dead. We used one another.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Add some bestiality and a lecherous priest and I say you have the beginnings of a beautiful novel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of my newly loyal subjects brought it to me as a token of esteem, as it were. It's a curious piece. I know of only one silversmith who works metal like this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He went from abolishing the death penalty to calling for the king's head in two short years. Where can we find him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's gonna be probably a, at least a seven or eight billion dollar investment to just to get us up and running.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a very complicated project. I mean, it's a mine, and a significant size mine, it's an 86 mile road, it's a brand new major port, and it's a power project.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any one of those four would require a full environmental impact statement. So making all those pieces fit, uh, both in terms of the environment and then economically and operationally, uh, is not easy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I came to Alaska in 1965 as a VISTA volunteer. Most of my work has been with Alaska Natives looking for economic opportunities for people that live in rural Alaska.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the end of this year, we'll have spent totally, since I've been here, a little over, a little over $400 million. I think probably around $450 million or so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Copper is sort of like the stealth mineral because people don't think about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And yet, uhm, if my friends in the environmental community that are opposed to the mine took


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My advice and took a no-copper pledge, their lives would be much different.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because if the choice has to be between fish and mining, you choose the fish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Our challenge is to prove that the two can coexist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think you design something to make sure it doesn't feed into Lake Iliamna. I mean, it's an engineering issue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not, not a physics issue. So we have to be able to engineer something that prevents that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, you know, we're gonna have to prove to people that our engineering works.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We did a sort of an electromagnetic flying of that fault and actually it turned out to go in a different direction than people thought it did. So we have mapped that. That fault has not been active for I think over 11,000 years. So we really don't think it's the threat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I basically believe that the technology is there to build the mine. I am convinced that the ability to keep things behind the tailings impoundment facility that need to be kept there, that technology is all there. We are going to have to prove that we can do that to people. If we can't prove it, I don't see how the mine gets permitted.

[Assistant] Permitting process will probably take four to five years. And then there's a question of which government agency might cause us the most trouble potentially in permitting. We have a number of challenges. Obviously the Environmental Protection Agency, both in terms of their water issues, our use of wetlands where they have

[Assistant] Uh, concurrent jurisdiction with the Corps of Engineers, air permitting, uh, endangered species around the border, all issues we're going to have to deal with.

[Assistant] Uhm, is that good or bad? I mean if it's done right, I mean it provides more economic opportunity for the area and if the fish can survive along with it, it seems to me that

[Assistant] It's outrageous that somebody would stop a project before a project proponent even had a chance to make the plans public. I don't think that's the kind of reputation our country wants to start to get if we want to start to have any kind of investment in large projects. So I think it would set a terrible precedent.

[Assistant] We all start looking forward to picking berries and gathering them for the winter. As soon as that's over.

[Assistant] It's so important that we honor this history, but also learn from it.

[Assistant] My name is Candacy Taylor. I'm a cultural documentarian working on a project based on The Green Book, which was a travel guide that was published for black people during the Jim Crow era.

[Assistant] By 1962, two million people were using the green book. It was the Bible of Black Travel, and that largely speaks to just how critical it was for safety. For instance, the sundown town was a place that was all white on purpose, and if you were black, you were not allowed after 6 p.m.

[Assistant] Pretend to be a chauffeur to help them get out of situations with law enforcement. And I asked my stepdad one day, I said, is this true? And he said, yeah. He said it happened to him when he was a child, riding in the backseat of his parents' car. Then they got pulled over by a sheriff. And his father turned and looked at him. He said, don't say a word.

[Assistant] But LA has either the largest or the second largest number that are still standing. We're sitting in the Dunbar, and it was built by a man who was a black dentist. He was sick of being thrown out of hotels, so he thought, well, I'll just build my own.

[Assistant] How are you? See, I'm good. Welcome to the Dunbar. Thank you. This is it. The Dunbar was called the walled off Astoria of black America. The best of the best.

[Assistant] So this is the raw data of my working map. Let's look at where we are now in Los Angeles and see what happens when we zoom in. The Dunbar, for example. When the interactive map is completed, you'll see images from the Dunbar, historical and current.

[Assistant] When I get to a green book site, first of all I want to see if it's still there. I'll try and find the owner and then I go and I do interviews.

[Assistant] And at that time, the strategy for the Montgomery Bus Boycott was happening. And so all those conversations with Thurgood Marshall and all of these people who were on the front lines of this history were sitting in that barbershop.

[Assistant] So it's a real honor, not just that the buildings are here, but to try and capture the stories behind them.

[Assistant] I'm working on an augmented reality platform and a mobile app to actually scan so you can see what was there, what it looked like when it was in the green book. Kind of collapsing the present and the past into a story because I think that's been important to me.
