Well, I don't see the point in waiting longer, so let's see the point in waiting longer,

so let's bring her out.

The Star Attraction, the one you came to see.

Ladies and gentlemen, the one, the only, Ms. Judy Gold.

Let me just start today.

Everyone knows that this podcast is a labor of love because God only knows I make zero,

I actually lose money on this podcast, but I love it because there are some people, like I get to talk to some of the most fascinating people in the entire world and I get to introduce them to my

three fans that listen to the button now I you know we have and then you have me am I the charity

case shut the fuck up robin I haven't even gotten there yet I'm doing the intro

like the reason I love doing this podcast

is because I feel like my whole mantra

is that everyone has a story.

Everyone has a story and you know everyone's story each person's story is unique in its own way

but it helps other people to tell their story and it also links us altogether.

Anyway, I know I'm getting all profoundy,

but you know, I do a lot of research on my guests.

And the, you know, the more,

and I know our guests today, I know our guests personally, because we have a very, both of us have a very close friend who is, oldest closest, I mean like really the person who made me do stand up, the person who dared me to do it and who's really good friends with Robin.

And we had lunch one day, and I was like,

oh my God, this woman is like so important

in the world in America America and when it comes to the creative arts and you know

the the intersection of politics and art and so profoundly affects us but a lot of people don't know her name and yet we're having lunch and I felt like I was sitting with like a camp friend.
