00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.720
Welcome to the deep dive. You know, it feels

00:00:02.720 --> 00:00:05.700
like there's just this constant flood of news,

00:00:05.960 --> 00:00:08.699
right? Especially coming out of Washington. Absolutely.

00:00:08.980 --> 00:00:11.820
Every day, it's something new. And it's incredibly

00:00:11.820 --> 00:00:15.199
easy to feel kind of overwhelmed by it all, trying

00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:16.960
to figure out what's actually important, what

00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:20.480
connects. It's tough. It really is. Getting that

00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:23.940
clear picture, seeing how issue A relates to

00:00:23.940 --> 00:00:26.699
issue B, that takes some digging. Exactly. And

00:00:26.699 --> 00:00:28.839
that's what we're aiming for today. So for this

00:00:28.839 --> 00:00:31.219
deep dive, we're going to zero in on some, well,

00:00:31.699 --> 00:00:34.240
really significant political and economic stuff

00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:37.579
unfolding in D .C. right now. We'll start by

00:00:37.579 --> 00:00:40.840
looking at the internal battles going on within

00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:43.259
a major political party. Then we'll shift gears

00:00:43.259 --> 00:00:45.920
to that big Republican legislative package. There's

00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:47.460
a lot of debate around that and the national

00:00:47.460 --> 00:00:50.140
debt. Right, the mega bill. Yeah. And finally,

00:00:50.179 --> 00:00:52.939
we'll tackle those frankly alarming new projections

00:00:52.939 --> 00:00:54.859
about Social Security and Medicare's financial

00:00:54.859 --> 00:00:57.429
health. So our goal here really is to cut through

00:00:57.429 --> 00:00:59.570
all that noise. We want to pull out the key insights,

00:00:59.909 --> 00:01:02.070
the important bits from recent reporting, and

00:01:02.070 --> 00:01:04.390
just help you connect the dots. Makes sense of

00:01:04.390 --> 00:01:06.909
it all. Yeah, exactly. So you get those aha moments.

00:01:07.269 --> 00:01:09.549
You see how these things that seem separate are

00:01:09.549 --> 00:01:12.629
actually linked. You walk away feeling genuinely

00:01:12.629 --> 00:01:15.790
informed but not, you know, buried in details.

00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:18.420
Precisely. And the insights we're working with

00:01:18.420 --> 00:01:20.459
today, they're coming from some really in -depth

00:01:20.459 --> 00:01:23.659
analysis published just this week by Politico.

00:01:23.700 --> 00:01:25.640
So it's a very current snapshot we're looking

00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:28.739
at. Good stuff. Ready to dive in. Let's do it.

00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:34.079
OK, first up, the Democrats, specifically the

00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:36.959
DNC. There's a new chair, Ken Martin, who took

00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:39.420
over back in February. That's right. Only since

00:01:39.420 --> 00:01:41.159
February. And it sounds like, wow, he's already

00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:43.980
walking into some pretty serious internal drama.

00:01:44.060 --> 00:01:46.450
Not much of a honeymoon period there. No, not

00:01:46.450 --> 00:01:48.450
really. If there ever was one, it evaporated

00:01:48.450 --> 00:01:50.750
fast. I mean, just four and a half months in,

00:01:50.769 --> 00:01:52.969
and you're already hearing critics inside the

00:01:52.969 --> 00:01:57.310
DNC calling his leadership weak and whiny, even

00:01:57.310 --> 00:02:01.090
invisible. Invisible. Ouch. That's quite a label

00:02:01.090 --> 00:02:03.670
for the head of the DNC. It is. And one DNC member

00:02:03.670 --> 00:02:06.409
just flat out said his early tenure was disappointing.

00:02:06.849 --> 00:02:08.930
And didn't Rahm Emanuel weigh in pretty sharply,

00:02:09.250 --> 00:02:11.620
too? Oh, yeah, the former Obama chief of staff.

00:02:11.819 --> 00:02:14.580
He had that really cutting line about the DNC

00:02:14.580 --> 00:02:16.740
spending six months on a firing squad in the

00:02:16.740 --> 00:02:19.379
circle and can't even fire a shot out. That's

00:02:19.379 --> 00:02:22.259
brutal. So what does all this infighting really

00:02:22.259 --> 00:02:24.259
signal about where the party's at right now?

00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:27.060
Well, it definitely highlights deep concerns,

00:02:27.060 --> 00:02:29.159
I think, about Martin's ability to unify the

00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:31.740
party, especially after some tough election losses.

00:02:31.939 --> 00:02:34.819
It suggests there are real fractures, real bitterness

00:02:34.819 --> 00:02:36.780
within the different factions. Can you give us

00:02:36.780 --> 00:02:39.439
some concrete examples? What really shows the,

00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:41.900
you know, the depth of this friction? Sure. I

00:02:41.900 --> 00:02:44.039
mean, look at the labor unions. You had Randy

00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:46.719
Weingarten from the teachers union, AFT, and

00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:50.400
Lee Saunders from AFSCME, two really big influential

00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:52.919
leaders. They actually quit their posts at the

00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:55.580
DNC. Oh, wow. Yeah. Citing disagreements over

00:02:55.580 --> 00:02:57.879
the party's direction. That's huge. These unions

00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:00.680
represent millions, and it signals a potential

00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:03.659
rift with a core democratic constituency. That's

00:03:03.659 --> 00:03:05.699
a major signal. And then there was that incident

00:03:05.699 --> 00:03:09.120
with David Hogg, the gun control activist. Right.

00:03:09.460 --> 00:03:11.580
He got pushed out of his vice chair role after

00:03:11.580 --> 00:03:15.259
he pledged to fund primary challenges against

00:03:15.259 --> 00:03:16.960
Democrats he thought weren't effective enough.

00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:19.539
That's a direct challenge to party unity right

00:03:19.539 --> 00:03:22.159
there. definitely stirs the pot. And Martin also

00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:24.259
apparently angered some people by removing quite

00:03:24.259 --> 00:03:27.419
a few party officials from a key panel. This

00:03:27.419 --> 00:03:30.319
is the Rules and Bylaws Committee, super important

00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:33.020
for setting up the 2028 presidential nomination

00:03:33.020 --> 00:03:37.319
process. And the reporting noted that 13 of the

00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:39.900
15 people he removed hadn't voted for him in

00:03:39.900 --> 00:03:42.379
the DNC chair election. OK, so you can see how

00:03:42.379 --> 00:03:44.960
that might look like consolidating power. not

00:03:44.960 --> 00:03:48.060
building bridges. But I gather Martin and his

00:03:48.060 --> 00:03:49.879
team see it differently. They absolutely do.

00:03:50.259 --> 00:03:52.479
His allies argue he's just focused on the main

00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.039
goal, winning elections. They point out he's

00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:57.280
been traveling constantly, visiting dozens of

00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:00.280
states, boosting funding for state parties. And

00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:02.280
they highlight that Democrats have actually been

00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:04.539
over -performing in special elections this year.

00:04:05.099 --> 00:04:07.580
They see that as proof his strategy is working.

00:04:08.340 --> 00:04:10.680
Some even say he's diluting his own power by

00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:13.159
letting DNC members elect people to committee

00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:16.790
slots now. So it's a transforming the DNC narrative

00:04:16.790 --> 00:04:20.129
from their side. But it sounds like maybe some

00:04:20.129 --> 00:04:22.290
democratic lawmakers on the Hill aren't quite

00:04:22.290 --> 00:04:25.100
buying it, or maybe just aren't plugged in. That

00:04:25.100 --> 00:04:26.839
seems to be part of the problem. Yeah. You had

00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:29.100
Senator Ron Wyden saying, you know, give people

00:04:29.100 --> 00:04:32.120
a bit more time, sort of hedging. But then Senator

00:04:32.120 --> 00:04:34.500
Mazie Hirono just admitted, to tell you the truth,

00:04:34.579 --> 00:04:36.759
I don't know him. I haven't met him yet. Wow.

00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:39.600
That really reinforces that invisible criticism,

00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:42.660
doesn't it? It could, yeah. And Martin himself

00:04:42.660 --> 00:04:45.379
apparently acknowledged this challenge in a private

00:04:45.379 --> 00:04:47.459
meeting, saying something like, no one knows

00:04:47.459 --> 00:04:49.079
who the hell I am, right? I'm trying to get my

00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:52.939
sea lakes. So the big picture here isn't just,

00:04:52.939 --> 00:04:55.680
you know, palace intrigue. It's about a party

00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:58.199
that seems to be struggling to get its key players

00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:00.819
on the same page. Which naturally raises questions

00:05:00.819 --> 00:05:03.079
about their ability to tackle the big stuff.

00:05:03.500 --> 00:05:05.579
Exactly. Which kind of leads us nicely into the

00:05:05.579 --> 00:05:07.560
next big challenge we wanted to look at. Right.

00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:10.420
Let's pivot to the economy and specifically this

00:05:10.420 --> 00:05:14.079
massive Republican legislative package. It's

00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:16.300
hitting turbulence over its potential impact

00:05:16.300 --> 00:05:18.800
on the national debt. Senate Republicans are

00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:22.279
pushing this huge bill border energy tax cuts.

00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:24.300
I think there was a lot of ground. But economists,

00:05:24.779 --> 00:05:26.660
particularly nonpartisan ones, are basically

00:05:26.660 --> 00:05:28.740
shouting warnings that it could add trillions

00:05:28.740 --> 00:05:31.120
to the deficit. And what's really striking is

00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:34.000
how those warnings seem to be, well, largely

00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:36.480
dismissed by Senate Republicans leading the charge.

00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:39.500
They're leaning very heavily on White House projections.

00:05:39.720 --> 00:05:41.759
Projections that assume much higher economic

00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:44.220
growth than most other models predict? Precisely.

00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:46.560
And they're openly questioning the credibility

00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:48.560
of the Congressional Budget Office, the CBO.

00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:52.459
the nonpartisan scorekeeper Congress relies on.

00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:55.199
So the CBO comes out and says the House version

00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:57.740
adds about $2 .8 trillion to the deficit over

00:05:57.740 --> 00:06:00.819
10 years. And the response is essentially, nope,

00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.800
CBO's wrong. Pretty much. Senator Kevin Cramer

00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:07.139
called the CBO report a model that's been famously

00:06:07.139 --> 00:06:11.279
wrong before. He argued they grossly underestimate

00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:14.610
the economic benefits. But the CBO... And others

00:06:14.610 --> 00:06:17.009
are saying that while tax cuts might spur some

00:06:17.009 --> 00:06:19.910
growth, it likely don't be nearly as much as

00:06:19.910 --> 00:06:22.889
claimed, maybe not even as much as the 2017 tax

00:06:22.889 --> 00:06:25.269
cuts. That's the counter argument. And it's a

00:06:25.269 --> 00:06:27.589
crucial point, especially when you consider the

00:06:27.589 --> 00:06:29.870
existing debt, what, nearly thirty seven trillion

00:06:29.870 --> 00:06:32.550
dollars now. Yeah. The cost of just paying the

00:06:32.550 --> 00:06:35.550
interest on that debt is soaring, and that cost

00:06:35.550 --> 00:06:38.050
could actually wipe out any extra revenue generated

00:06:38.050 --> 00:06:40.569
if the economic growth doesn't materialize as

00:06:40.569 --> 00:06:43.100
strongly as hoped. So the CBO actually projected

00:06:43.100 --> 00:06:45.399
higher interest payments because of this bill,

00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:48.939
like $440 billion more over a decade. Yes, while

00:06:48.939 --> 00:06:51.060
predicting average economic growth from the bill

00:06:51.060 --> 00:06:53.600
at only about 0 .5 percent a year, compare that

00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:55.699
to House GOP leaders who claim the bill would

00:06:55.699 --> 00:06:58.819
generate $2 .5 trillion, banking on growth averaging

00:06:58.819 --> 00:07:01.620
2 .6 percent. Those are vastly different worlds.

00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:03.279
And wasn't there something unusual about the

00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:05.779
CBO's dynamic scoring this time? Usually that

00:07:05.779 --> 00:07:08.079
makes tax cuts look better for the deficit, right?

00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:11.660
Exactly. Dynamic scoring tries to factor in the

00:07:11.660 --> 00:07:14.480
economic effects of the policy. Usually, for

00:07:14.480 --> 00:07:17.160
tax cuts, it shows less of a deficit increase.

00:07:17.620 --> 00:07:20.439
But this time, the CBO's dynamic score deficit

00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:23.939
projection, $2 .8 trillion, was higher than their

00:07:23.939 --> 00:07:27.740
earlier static score of $2 .4 trillion. That's...

00:07:27.550 --> 00:07:30.790
Counterintuitive, why? The CBO explicitly pointed

00:07:30.790 --> 00:07:33.230
to the bill's potential to increase interest

00:07:33.230 --> 00:07:36.029
rates. That dynamic actually caused at least

00:07:36.029 --> 00:07:38.930
one Republican, Senator Ron Johnson, to balk.

00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:41.439
He put out his own analysis showing the bill

00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:44.300
likely won't reduce the deficit, even under optimistic

00:07:44.300 --> 00:07:46.660
scenarios. He said he'll vote against it as is.

00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:49.180
Interesting. But Senate Majority Leader John

00:07:49.180 --> 00:07:51.740
Thune is still pushing it hard. He is. He's on

00:07:51.740 --> 00:07:53.579
the Senate floor citing a White House economic

00:07:53.579 --> 00:07:55.680
report claiming the bill would generate something

00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:58.420
like $4 .1 trillion through growth, projecting

00:07:58.420 --> 00:08:01.639
long -run GDP growth up to 3 .5%. Those White

00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:03.680
House numbers really seem like outliers compared

00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:06.279
to everyone else, then. They absolutely do. You

00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:08.319
look at the tax foundation, more conservative

00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:11.000
leaning, they see maybe 0 .8 % growth and still

00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:13.579
$1 .7 trillion added to the deficit. Penn Wharton

00:08:13.579 --> 00:08:17.519
budget model, 0 .4 % growth, $3 .2 trillion added.

00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:20.560
One economist from AEI just called the White

00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:23.379
House figures outrageous. So the takeaway here

00:08:23.379 --> 00:08:26.100
is this huge gap between traditional economic

00:08:26.100 --> 00:08:29.040
forecasts and a specific political narrative

00:08:29.040 --> 00:08:31.899
about growth, which has massive implications

00:08:31.899 --> 00:08:34.789
for the debt. And for how Washington even measures

00:08:34.789 --> 00:08:38.330
fiscal responsibility. Meanwhile, Democrats are

00:08:38.330 --> 00:08:40.169
waiting in the wings, ready to say, I told you

00:08:40.169 --> 00:08:42.750
so, if the economy doesn't boom, much like they

00:08:42.750 --> 00:08:45.950
did after the 2017 tax cuts. Which, again, brings

00:08:45.950 --> 00:08:48.549
us back to the nation's long term financial health.

00:08:48.690 --> 00:08:51.529
And that ties directly into our third area, Social

00:08:51.529 --> 00:08:54.190
Security and Medicare. Yeah, because piled on

00:08:54.190 --> 00:08:56.409
top of everything else, we just got new projections

00:08:56.409 --> 00:08:58.450
showing the financial picture for both Social

00:08:58.450 --> 00:09:00.350
Security and Medicare actually got worse last

00:09:00.350 --> 00:09:03.029
year. Worse? How so? Those annual reports from

00:09:03.029 --> 00:09:05.029
the Treasury Department, they show the funding

00:09:05.029 --> 00:09:07.629
cliffs. The points where the programs can't pay

00:09:07.629 --> 00:09:11.169
out full benefits are coming sooner. Social Security's

00:09:11.169 --> 00:09:13.509
combined funds are now projected to run short

00:09:13.509 --> 00:09:16.509
in 2034. That's a year earlier than they thought

00:09:16.509 --> 00:09:19.889
last year. 2034. Okay. And Medicare. Even sooner.

00:09:20.750 --> 00:09:23.450
Its main hospital trust fund, Part A, is now

00:09:23.450 --> 00:09:26.649
projected to be depleted in 2033. That's three

00:09:26.649 --> 00:09:29.440
years earlier than last year's projection. That's

00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:31.940
a significant shift. Wow, three years is a big

00:09:31.940 --> 00:09:34.240
jump for Medicare. What's driving these changes?

00:09:34.379 --> 00:09:36.740
Why the acceleration? Well, for Social Security,

00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:39.220
one factor was actually a bipartisan law President

00:09:39.220 --> 00:09:42.039
Biden signed back in January. It expanded benefits

00:09:42.039 --> 00:09:44.600
for some public sector workers, basically broadening

00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:48.019
eligibility. OK. Plus the actuaries revised economic

00:09:48.019 --> 00:09:50.980
forecasts downward. They expect slower long term

00:09:50.980 --> 00:09:53.200
wage growth now, and they think fertility rates

00:09:53.200 --> 00:09:55.519
will stay lower for longer. Fewer workers supporting

00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:58.259
more retirees, essentially. And Medicare. Why

00:09:58.259 --> 00:10:00.399
the three year jump there? mainly higher than

00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:03.480
expected spending recently, plus upward revisions

00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:06.080
in projected future costs for hospital and hospice

00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:09.080
care. Treasury Secretary Scott Besant made it

00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:11.440
clear lawmakers really need to step up and act

00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:13.559
to shore these programs up. You hear that call

00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:15.840
for action a lot, but the timelines keep getting

00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:18.460
shorter. What about the politics around it? Trump's

00:10:18.460 --> 00:10:20.440
talked about Social Security on the trail. He

00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:23.179
has. He vowed to eliminate taxes on Social Security

00:10:23.179 --> 00:10:25.299
benefits entirely. But the current Republican

00:10:25.299 --> 00:10:27.639
proposals in Congress, the ones tied to that

00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:29.649
mega bill we discussed, They don't go that far.

00:10:29.909 --> 00:10:32.129
Right. They propose deductions, not elimination.

00:10:32.269 --> 00:10:34.610
What was it, like $4 ,000 extra deduction in

00:10:34.610 --> 00:10:37.110
the House plan, $6 ,000 in the Senate? Something

00:10:37.110 --> 00:10:39.350
like that. Yeah. So still a tax break for seniors,

00:10:39.610 --> 00:10:41.990
but not the full elimination Trump mentioned.

00:10:42.269 --> 00:10:44.529
Of course, the administration is also focused

00:10:44.529 --> 00:10:46.929
on things like fraud reduction and trimming the

00:10:46.929 --> 00:10:48.990
Social Security administration workforce. OK,

00:10:49.009 --> 00:10:51.269
so let's game this out. What actually happens

00:10:51.269 --> 00:10:54.669
if Congress doesn't act by 2033 for Medicare

00:10:54.669 --> 00:10:58.850
Part A and 2034 for Social Security if they hit

00:10:58.850 --> 00:11:02.299
those cliffs? That's the critical question. Because

00:11:02.299 --> 00:11:04.539
both programs already pay out more each year

00:11:04.539 --> 00:11:06.620
than they take in through dedicated payroll taxes.

00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:09.799
They're using reserves, their trust funds to

00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:13.620
cover the gap. If those trust funds run dry and

00:11:13.620 --> 00:11:15.960
Congress hasn't changed the law, Social Security

00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:18.700
would only be able to pay about 81 % of the benefits

00:11:18.700 --> 00:11:21.519
people are scheduled to receive. Medicare Part

00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:24.720
A could only cover about 89 % of its bills. So

00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:27.820
an immediate significant cut for millions of

00:11:27.820 --> 00:11:30.620
seniors and beneficiaries, not a gradual phase

00:11:30.620 --> 00:11:33.509
out. An abrupt shortfall. Yeah. OK, so wrapping

00:11:33.509 --> 00:11:37.009
this up, we've really covered three huge interlocking

00:11:37.009 --> 00:11:39.549
challenges here in Washington today. You've got

00:11:39.549 --> 00:11:42.210
the internal strife within the DNC. Then the

00:11:42.210 --> 00:11:44.549
deep disagreements over economic strategy and

00:11:44.549 --> 00:11:47.029
the national debt highlighted by that Republican

00:11:47.029 --> 00:11:49.629
mega bill. And finally, these accelerating funding

00:11:49.629 --> 00:11:52.149
deadlines for Social Security and Medicare demanding

00:11:52.149 --> 00:11:54.649
actions sooner rather than later. And it's important

00:11:54.649 --> 00:11:57.049
to remember these aren't just abstract political

00:11:57.049 --> 00:12:00.269
games. They have real consequences for policy,

00:12:00.529 --> 00:12:03.090
for the economy's stability, and obviously for

00:12:03.090 --> 00:12:05.230
the future of programs millions of people rely

00:12:05.230 --> 00:12:07.649
on, maybe including you listening right now.

00:12:07.740 --> 00:12:10.340
Absolutely. Understanding how a party's internal

00:12:10.340 --> 00:12:13.419
health, its economic approach, and these massive

00:12:13.419 --> 00:12:16.519
social safety net challenges all interact. That's

00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:18.620
really key to making sense of the whole political

00:12:18.620 --> 00:12:21.019
landscape. It really is. You can't easily separate

00:12:21.019 --> 00:12:22.759
them. So here's a final thought to leave you

00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:25.480
with. We just heard Social Security's cliff is

00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:29.179
projected for 2034, Medicare's for 2033, action

00:12:29.179 --> 00:12:31.960
is needed. We also talked about deep divisions

00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:34.299
within one major party, potentially hindering

00:12:34.299 --> 00:12:36.860
its effectiveness. And we looked at the other

00:12:36.860 --> 00:12:40.179
major party pushing an economic plan with forecasts

00:12:40.179 --> 00:12:42.840
starkly different from nonpartisan analyses,

00:12:43.419 --> 00:12:45.750
raising huge questions about debt. Given all

00:12:45.750 --> 00:12:48.330
that the internal party issues, the clashing

00:12:48.330 --> 00:12:50.610
economic visions, and these looming entitlement

00:12:50.610 --> 00:12:53.429
deadlines, what does this combination of pressures

00:12:53.429 --> 00:12:55.789
really suggest about Washington's ability, its

00:12:55.789 --> 00:12:58.110
collective capacity, to actually find common

00:12:58.110 --> 00:13:00.330
ground and tackle the country's biggest long

00:13:00.330 --> 00:13:01.590
-term problems right now?
