Senator, congratulations. The book is out. It's in the top of the list all over Amazon and for the audience right now.

This is the book. It's what you've got to go get. It's phenomenal. You can grab it on Amazon or wherever you get your books.

You're on book tour, as we call it, which is actually really fun. And you got to go out to California

into the lion's den, which actually turned out to be like a petting zoo. It was pretty shocking,

but really fun to watch you and Bill Moore have conversations about this country in America.

There was something that you said that I loved. You said, there's two different echo chambers.

Rachel Maddow, MSNBC,

there's Sean Hannity at Fox News, and we need to talk to each other more, have a grand debate,

a grand conversation, and Democrats and Republicans aren't doing that anywhere. And that's exactly

what you and Bill Maher did, which was really fun to watch. Yeah, look, it was a blast to do. I think we need to

talk to each other a lot more. On the book tour, I'm going across the country. So Thursday night

last week, I flew out to L.A., got in late that evening. And actually Thursday night, you and I

recorded Verdict Friday's episode with Rick Grinnell yeah who had

been Donald Trump's director of national intelligence he's a good friend of you and

me and we had I think a very interesting discussion analyzing the intelligence

failures both for the United States and for Israel that tragically led to

October 7th and and Rick is someone who's been on the

inside. I think he provided a really helpful perspective that you don't get many other places.

Not only did you get to talk with him, but then you go into this and how do you prep for

Bill Maher? I mean, I know this answer, but for people that don't, you do things like the

view, you do things like Bill Maher.

You've got to be ready for this to go two different ways.
