  Speaker 3: Listen, Mark. President Biden tried to lower gas prices at
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: one point in his administration by tapping into the Strategic
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: Oil Reserve.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: It was a gimmick.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: We all know it. Has that inventory been replaced, I
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: don't think so.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Not yet. It's replaced a little on a regular basis.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: But what President Trump does, now, maybe he did do
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: this when the prices get really low, he goes and
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: buys a ton of it and fills up the reserve.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: So he'll do that soon. Now It's not a big
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: problem for us because we produce our own oil. Now
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: we are totally energy independent. In fact, we export oil.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Now that's how much we have. But good question. Let's
• 1:18

  Speaker 2: no idea what WTI oil is. Nobody has any idea
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: why the price of oil has gone up, even though
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: we're totally oil independent in this country. But getting to
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: the thing about the singles. You know, I play in

  Speaker 2: a band and a lot of people here in Myrtle
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Beach is a tourist town. The amount of singles we

  Speaker 2: get as tips in a night. I can walk out
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: of the fifty to sixty singles and I bring them
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: down to the ice cream parl because they're always begging
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: for small building. But this wt oil thing is just
• 2:51
