Hello and welcome back to another episode of Stand Up.

I hope you heard the last two episodes because the opening are evergreen this week, meaning it's always going to be relevant.

Susie Hathamond, the great Susie Huffman, emailed me yesterday and said when you listen to the show a couple days after it's posted,

the news headlines are kind of irrelevant.

And so I really like what you're experimenting with,

getting a lot of great feedback from folks.

So thank you very much for your email, Susie,

and everybody else's feedback.

We're being positive and inspiring.

We're talking about coping mechanisms and resources and thought experiments and philosophy and comedy.

That's right.

Always going to try to have as much humor in the conversation as possible.

So thank you very much for press and play.

I've got Barry Ridholtz joining me today.

And then I've got a conversation with radio and podcast YouTuber Brian Shapiro,

who invited me on his very popular show out of Las Vegas and huge now on YouTube as well.

And so I brought you that interview.

I was his guest, and so I rolled on it.

So you can hear that after my conversation with Rittholds, which starts at 16 minutes.

And my guest appearance on Brian Shapiro's show begins at one hour, two minutes.

But right now I'm going to give you some more that good stuff.

That's right.
