You're listening to the West Wing Weekly. I'm Rashique Sherway. And I'm Joshua Molina.

nominated for an Emmy. I have to say, the last time I was here and you asked, I think you asked

me about Alex. And how was it working with him? And I think the first thing I said was he's really

good with the camera. And then I felt bad afterwards because he's a, you know, clearly an excellent

director. And I don't think I gave him the props that he deserved. Yeah. But actually, I'm glad

that he brought that up again because while the camera work is very good in this episode as well,
