Book your ticket to happiness with Sun Express Airlines. I'm going to do. Hello and welcome to the Bullard Podcast it's a good morning here.

President Biden was showing some vigor last night.

We have more good economic news with an expectations beating 275,000 new jobs

and a big win from the Denver Nuggets last night.

So I'm pleased to be here to discuss it with White House Communications Director Ben

LeBolt.

We're going to hash out the speech and then after a break we'll get Will Salitan to talk maybe

about Katie Britt and her interesting performance last night and maybe some other stuff.

LeBold, thanks for doing this brother.

Glad to be here.

Good to talk to you.

Yeah, I do have to do a disclaimer at the top.

Me and Ben are friends, and not like everyone in DC says that they're friends, if they've met a party one time before, but Ben and I are friends.

But I will say our friendship was forged through disagreement and arguing back when I was a Republican flag.

So we're happy to disagree and we can survive that.

So I don't know if you have any hits on me from 2012 that you want to get out of the way

before we start, Ben, but you can take one free shot if you want.

Well I was hoping we could still argue a little bit today or find something to argue about but yeah I mean

we're kind of in a weird era now right where all of my Republican friends from back in the day who used to be

competitors and we we would get into arguments sort of recognize the stakes of the

moment now and agree on a lot more than we disagree on, which is both

reassuring and concerning at the same time.
