Hi, everyone. It's Lulu. Before we start the show, I have a little news about the interview.

You've probably heard ads during our show talking about how quality journalism is worth paying for.

We hope you agree. And maybe you've even heard hosts of other New York Times podcasts asking you to

subscribe to their show. Well, now it's my turn. Starting this week, we're asking you

our wonderful listeners to subscribe to the New York Times. If you do, you'll get full access to

every episode of our show and all the other New York Times shows on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Sometimes there'll even be special content for subscribers. If you're already an eligible

time subscriber, you'll just need to log into your subscription to get access to all of that content.

If you don't subscribe, you'll still be able to hear the latest episodes of the interview,

but the full archive will only be available to time subscribers. We at the interview genuinely hope you will become a

subscriber, not just because you want to listen to all of your favorite episodes, whenever you want,

but also because you believe that what we're doing is worth supporting and because you want to

keep listening to the conversations we host as much as we want to keep making them for you.

So that's our big news. You can go to NYTimes.com slash podcasts to learn more.

Enjoy the show and thanks as always for listening.
