Hey everybody, welcome back to Larry Wilmore Black. I'm the air. I am Larry Wilmore.

Of course I'm black on the air. What a year it's been man. This year has gone by so fast.

It's hard to believe that it's mid-December and I'm having so much fun doing this podcast.

And once again I just want to thank everybody for listening in. Be sure to share with your friends,

tell everybody, listen to Larry Wilmore Black on the air. And remember we were mentioned time
