Oh, The Prestige.

Yeah.

See, I think I would say Prestige, but like that's probably an Americanism that has lingered in my linguistics.

I don't think I've ever seen it.

What's it about?

OK, well, let's get into the news, because as usual, there's loads going on and we will start in the Middle East where things continue.

Like when you think about this time last week, we talked and then immediately after we recorded, Donald Trump sent out that mad message about.

everything's fine.

We're not going to do any more bombings in Iran.

Everything's grand.

And then, and then Iran were like, no, that's this, these chats that you say have happened, haven't happened.

So exactly as you predicted, you were like, who knows this could all be nonsense.

And it turns out it kind of was.

Yeah, I'm interested in how it's all going down in America in terms of public opinion, because it seems to be quite mixed from what I'm seeing.

And there are lots of Trump voters who aren't happy about this, who, you know, I've seen lots of people expressing regret that they voted for Donald Trump because they say that this isn't what he said he would do.

And plenty of people seeming to join the dots in terms of the potential loss of life should Donald Trump push forward with this.

But then there are still people who, you know, are like, yeah, get the oil, go America, USA, USA.

And it's like, you know, who don't seem to realize that you are talking about potentially thousands of young men and women dead.

And, you know, often it's young men and women from challenging backgrounds or people who, you know, rely on being in the armed services to pay for college or, you know, who are economically challenged.

And it's just awful.
