It's Friday, May 3rd, 2024, and Fridays are Ask or Tell Me Anything next on the AM Update.

Thank you again for everyone's submissions this week, questions and stories.

You think everybody else needs to be aware of on the AM update.

It's been a fun week back so far. Again, thank you for your understanding as being kind of a little bit spotty, replaying some old episodes for a broader audience of No Suck Saturday with my wife, Bella, and I.

That's the program we do, and we'll get back to within the next

couple of weeks on Saturdays for our paid Apple podcast subscribers. For the rest of you, though,

again, thank you for listening to the AM update and sticking with me. Every time I take a little

bit of time off, I lose a fair amount of listeners for a podcast this size. So I would always appreciate it if you

could, if you have a little bit of extra time to give me a five-star review on whatever the podcast

platform of your choices, whether that's iTunes or Spotify. And of course, if you know,

anybody who's looking for kind of an early morning news roundup, like the one that you listen to Monday through Thursday and sometimes Friday like this, let them know, share this podcast with them if you think it's worth sharing.

Of course, don't share it if you think it's crap and you're just listening to it because you feel sorry for me.

Don't do it in that case.

But appreciate all of you for listening that actually do listen on a regular

basis. With that being said, it's time for ask or tell me anything. You can ask me any question

you want or tell me any news story you think that needs to be shared, as I just said. We're going to

begin with this, a couple of reactions to yesterday's air analysis on John MacArthur. This one is from

Melissa B. Glad you're back in case you weren't aware. The John MacArthur clip has important

context missing at the beginning. He's discussing a couple of books that talk about the myth of mental

illness. She attaches this clip from Protestia, which is a great follow. It's at Protestia, P-R-O-T-E-S-T-I-A.

It's just spelled exactly how it sounds.

You should follow them.
