Lady stuff.

Billy and I will listen on our next drive.

But How to Survive in the Woods.

Thank you very much and love to have you on again sometime.

This is Interrupted by Matt Jones on NewsRadio 840 WHAS.

Now, here's Matt Jones.

Welcome to episode 27 of Interrupted by Matt Jones.

We, of course, if you've been following the news, there have been a ton of...

you know, national and international news stories.

And one of the things we try to do on here is bring people on who know a lot more about it than I do.

And so Phil Stewart is a national security reporter for Reuters.

He has covered 60 plus countries over the years and is covering

the situation in Venezuela now with the capture of Maduro by the United States military slash Justice Department.

And Phil, I appreciate you doing this.

Nice to meet you through this.

We've never talked before, but I followed your work on social media and I appreciate you taking the time.

All right, I'm gonna assume most people know what has happened, but let's take a step back, Phil, for people.

Maduro kind of comes on the radar probably for the average American during this, but let's go back to him seizing power, taking over from Hugo Chavez.

What are some of the reasons why America would have felt the need to go in?

And give us a little background on Maduro as the leader of Venezuela.
