Ensemble.","styleRuns":[{"startIndex":0,"length":422,"styleRunExtensions":{"styleRunColorMapExtension":{"colorMap":[{"key":"USER_INTERFACE_THEME_DARK","value":4294967295},{"key":"USER_INTERFACE_THEME_LIGHT","value":4279440147}]}},"fontFamilyName":"Roboto"}]},"headerRuns":[{"startIndex":0,"length":422,"headerMapping":"ATTRIBUTED_STRING_HEADER_MAPPING_UNSPECIFIED"}]}},{"itemSectionRenderer":{"contents":[{"continuationItemRenderer":{"trigger":"CONTINUATION_TRIGGER_ON_ITEM_SHOWN","continuationEndpoint":{"clickTrackingParams":"CMwBELsvGAIiEwjn97rkm_uJAxXAXHoFHfnKCK8=","commandMetadata":{"webCommandMetadata":{"sendPost":true,"apiUrl":"/youtubei/v1/next"}},"continuationCommand":{"token":"Eg0SC0F6OUJBTWF5c0lNGAYyJSIRIgtBejlCQU1heXNJTTAAeAJCEGNvbW1lbnRzLXNlY3Rpb24%3D","request":"CONTINUATION_REQUEST_TYPE_WATCH_NEXT"}}}}],"trackingParams":"CMwBELsvGAIiEwjn97rkm_uJAxXAXHoFHfnKCK8=","sectionIdentifier":"comment-item-section","targetId":"comments-section"}}],"trackingParams":"CMsBELovIhMI5_e65Jv7iQMVwFx6BR35ygiv"}},"secondaryResults":{"secondaryResults":{"results":[{"lockupViewModel":{"contentImage":{"thumbnailViewModel":{"image":{"sources":[{"url":"https://i.ytimg.com/vi/uFara9Apxec/hqdefault.jpg?sqp=-oaymwEbCKgBEF5IVfKriqkDDggBFQAAiEIYAXABwAEG
