Hey friends, it is Friday, and I have a great conversation with David Rothkoff, which I taped yesterday or was live with Rothkoff yesterday on Substack and YouTube, and you can jump to it right now.

0:15.8

If you want, it starts at 14 minutes, but I've half-assed my way through a shit show.

0:21.6

Got up late this morning for me because I was up late last night with you.

0:26.9

At The Hangout, I had three beers.

0:30.2

Woo, really did me in.

0:32.1

And I had a great time with everybody who joined me.

0:34.9

If you want to watch Last Night's hangout, you can go to the link

that is sent to all paid subscribers, and you can re-watch it or listen to it, and hopefully that

1:37.1

And I'm really excited for a couple of days of that.

1:40.3

So thank you for your support.

1:42.1

I couldn't do these things without you. I don't get a lot of time or take a lot of time. So I'm really looking forward to that. And hopefully next year I'll take more time. How about that? All right. Well, I just got a couple clips coming up for you from the late night comedians. And here are the headlines that I've gathered. Not a real full shit show.
