All right, everybody. Welcome to episode 149 of the all in podcast with me. Again, David

Sacks and Jamal Polyhapatia, David Freeberg couldn't make it this week. We're going to carry

on without him. And it's a difficult week. So just a quick opening statement from me about

this episode, like all of you, we're devastated by the terrorist attacks that occurred in

each other deeply, hopefully. And we'll try to understand the world in each other just a little bit more.

And that's worth it, at least to me and apparently many of you. So with those two quick

disclaimers, gentlemen, anything you want to say upfront before I recap where we are five days

into this senseless brutality. I think that was a pretty good intro, Jason. I mean, you're right.

We're taping on Thursday, late morning, Pacific time. By the time this drops, it'll be Friday.

And so a lot could have happened. Also, it's true that the Middle East in general in this topic in
