    27:08 That's an oddly positive way of covering the Cambodian story. As someone from the region who was following this news, I understood it as an animal abuse case so government stepped in and impounded the defanged lion, but its Chinese well-to-do owner and the Cambodian dictator were friends somehow so he could still keep the lion. Obviously a corruption case. Owning lions as pets is against Cambodian law, but Hun Sen is ruling by decree so 🤷‍♂️

      I mean for one thing, it’s keeping wildlife inside your house, which is illegal unless you’re some sort of wildlife preserver as far as I know. But yeah, although it was immoral to keep a wild animal inside your house, much more a lion, it seemed to be docile. But that doesn’t keep it from the fact there’s a guy keeping a lion smack dab in the middle of Phnom Penh

IIRC the historical record hit 18 a couple of years ago. Also, there are much more newsworthy things that have happened this year over here, including a bidding war between 8 multinational corporations seeking to exploit the world's largest lithium reserve.

He was bullied for being "fat" in school until one day he threw his bully across the room and made himself realize he was stronger than he thought. After that the bully never bothered him again. He immigrated to Canada and tried lots of different sports that weren't suited to him like basketball, sprinting, etc. It wasn't until college he tried weightlifting and found naturally he could lift the heaviest weights.

    Surprised for Honduras that you didn’t talk about their recent election, which basically returned to power the people who were ousted in the 2009 coup, and may have implications for the now former president’s families drug smuggling case in New York

    The news about Syria although true it tricks people to think this is the case for refugee camps; while this is the ONLY ISIS camp in Syria, while there are 7 millions Syrian civilian refugees in drowning camps out of 17 millions displaced by barrel bombs, Russian airstrikes and chemical weapons. Be fair and avoid being misleading with partial coverage because we do have huge respect and hold you to high expectations.
