Speaker A: All right, uh, this episode of How Long Gone is brought to you by Stateside with Kai and Carter, a new podcast from The Guardian. And they are using this podcast to slow down the news and wrestle with the questions that we all have about what's happening in the world. And they do it 3 times a week. Jason, does that sound familiar to you? Speaker B: We don't really talk about, you know, a lot of international global news items and climates and cultures and sports and things like that. We do talk about fashion and wellness, but for everything else, Kai and Carter are a great place.

Speaker A: All right, so who couldn't use more news? Listen wherever you get your podcasts or watch on YouTube. Speaker C: Hello, how long gone? Speaker A: It's a beautiful noisy day here in Manhattan. We've got some protesters outside, Jason. They're vocal. They don't have jobs. They're out here in the middle of the day, you know, doing God's work. I'm not exactly sure what it's for, but there's a lot of action happening right now. Speaker B: Okay, this is— is this by the courthouse? Speaker A: Yes, by the courthouse. People are protesting, they're walking.

I think it's about the Venezuela homie. Speaker B: Yes, the arraignment of Nicolás Maduro, not to be confused with, uh, a GLP-1. Speaker A: Yes, but the guy, the guy from Venezuela. Yeah, so anyway, it's loud, it's fucking annoying. And this is the price you pay for living in New York unless you want to live in Cobble Hill and, you know, cosplay like it's Boston. Unfortunately, you got to pay your dues. Speaker A: Yes, but the guy, the guy from Venezuela. Yeah, so anyway, it's loud, it's fucking annoying. And this is the price you pay for living in New York unless you want to live in Cobble Hill and, you know, cosplay like it's Boston.
