We’re a few days out from the first presidential debate, but for those already looking to relive Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump’s showdown—without all the lights and noise—NPR has a full transcript of the night.

Along with other news outlets, NPR posted a full transcript of everything Clinton, Trump, and moderator Lester Holt said during the 95-minute debate.

But NPR also included in-line snippets of fact-checking and background to provide context to the raw transcript (for background, Harvard’s own Nieman Journalism Lab has a nice write up of the massive, 50-person undertaking).

Click over to NPR.org to read what candidates said and how much of it withstood the rigors of fact-checking.
