The news can be hard to keep up with, but sometimes I want to spend a bit more time with a story that's made headlines. That's why I produce CBC's Understood Podcast. We've covered the rise and fall of Sam Bankman Freed, the scandals surrounding Canada's very own Pornhub. The controversial leader of India. Each season of Understood is a short four episode immersive experience with a host who knows the story best. Follow so you never miss a season.

This is a CBC Podcast. Welcome to Ideas. I'm Nala Ayad. It was cold, overcast, and raining in New York City on Octur Twenty, Eightin Eighty Six. hardly ideal weather for a parade.

Mm-hmm. And yet. Thousands line Broadway to cheer marching bands and soldiers destined for the city's harbor. By the time the procession arrived.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is 1 credit.

We already have this episode, so unlocking it is cheap and permanent: the full transcript (55 minutes, 7,898 words), segment and word-level timestamps, and .txt, .srt, .vtt and word-level JSON downloads, as many times as you like, forever.

10 free credits is 10 episodes like this one a month. Episodes nobody has transcribed yet cost their length in hours, because we have to actually transcribe them.
