The Inconquerable, number 440, January 2019.

Welcome back everybody to The Incomparable.

I'm your host, Jason Snell, and as we have reached a new year, it is time to look back briefly.

Well, not, not briefly, for a very long episode where we look back at 2018 in terms of our favorite things and in terms of our favorite things from The Incomparable and there will be clips later and all of that.

But first, I have gathered four wonderful panelists with me.

Well, three wonderful panelists, also David Lorre.

You beat me to it.

Ouch.

Ouch. Ouch. To talk about some of our,. You beat me to it. Ouch.

Ouch.

To talk about some of our, just we're going to talk about things that made us happy this year in terms of culture stuff.

Maybe you'll get some ideas of things that you can watch or read or whatever.

And so I will introduce them now.

First off, of course, the most amazing, versatile of all panelists ever in the history of the incomparable ever who I insulted. David J. Lorr. Hello. Hello, Jason. Hello, David. I'm taking it easier. Also hear people who I didn't insult, but I'll probably get there. Let's face it.

Yeah, give it time. It's early. Anthony Johnston is here. Hello.

Hello, Jason. And hello, everyone. I just want to say, it is quite frankly good to be here at the end of 2018. I think that's something we can all agree on.

Yeah, put it in the ground. Move on. Time for another year. This one is all used up.

Aline Sims is here. Happy New Year.

Hello. I'm so glad to not be in 2018 anymore.
