The New York Times app? Unlocked? Everyone knows you need to subscribe to the Times to access all of the reporting. But what if you could explore the Times for a month, for free, without putting in a credit card? Now you can.

0:13

When you download the New York Times app for the first time, your first month in the app is free. A month to go behind the paywall to see what Times subscribers get every single day. If you don't already subscribe to the New York Times, download the Times app today and get free access for 30 days. We live in a world where either you order shit or you deliver shit.

0:35

And you really don't want to deliver shit. I'm David Marchese, and today I'm interviewing Chris Rock. Sell not arenas. It's like sex, I always say. Unless you played that arena twice, it didn't happen.

That was the opening. The rest of the episode (62 min) is in the player: every word clickable, with translation, saved words and flashcards.
