Hey, this is the moment.

A bright compliment.

Thanks for listening.

I'm thrilled to have Dan Wilson on the podcast.

Dan's one of the best songwriters walking around.

He's written and recorded and sung a bunch of songs you know.

Most famously as an artist closing time.

He's also written someone like you with Adele produced.

You produce that record too, right?

Yep.

And he's won the Grammys and wrote with huge hits for Dixie Chicks and also won Grammys

for that.

And also has written with Taylor Swift though it's unclear if he's allowed to talk about

that experience other than with platitudes.

And he and I got to spend some time writing together over the last few weeks which was

an enormous thrill for me.

And Dan's also great at social media.

We first got in touch, Dan, because you wrote me and it was so cool.

You wrote me when I was doing a six-second screenwriting thing and you were like, hey, I want

to do something similar.

Are you cool with it?

And I was like, yeah, do it.
