00:00 Now Secretary, it has become quite a thing that your t-shirts seem to draw us
00:12 every estimates to your topic and I hope you didn't think because I hadn't
00:18 mentioned this in the first hour that I haven't been watching your t-shirt
00:23 efforts over time. Have you changed your mind since last estimates? Are you now a
00:30 fan of Taylor Swift? Senator I'm very glad you asked me that question. I know I
00:36 think I feel like I'm living rent-free in your head but at the supply and
00:40 logistics conference last week I was told when I got there in the afternoon
00:45 that you indeed had taken the time to. Yep exactly so I was wearing a Taylor
00:53 Swift t-shirt last week at a freight logistics conference thank you for
00:57 asking. And why did you choose Tay Tay? It was a gift from one of my staff and I
01:04 also thought that you might enjoy it because I knew you were speaking later on in the agenda and it might come up at Senate Estimates.
01:10 Well I did, I did so I thought that was very sweet of you to be thinking that.
01:16 It's the least I could do if you're living rent-free in my head. I really don't want to do that.
01:20 No no well I didn't um anyway. I would like to add it's not just Tay Tay that he
01:29 promotes by way of t-shirt. No no I I think recognize that but I do appreciate the effort.
01:37 All right low-carbon liquid fuels. That's a change of pace. Well I just I just
01:44 couldn't let it pass all that effort. No I know I didn't I haven't been I was
01:51 going to wear my Morrissey t-shirt. Yeah I know right we could actually agree on
01:56 something. Yeah we could.
