Hello, everyone, and welcome to another episode of Getting Hammered.

I am your host, Mary Catherine Ham.

I'm here with my co-host, Vic Madison's a Free Beacon.

We are your morning show for any hour.

There's a lot going on in the news.

We have a lot of Israel updates, some congressional updates from the always peaceful House of Representatives.

And much, much more, including some student loan news.

But before we get to that, Vic, how are things going? Hello, Mary Catherine.

Doing fine and I got great news for you. I did not go blind staring at the sun. Congratulations.

Not the only one. Sorry, that's a U-2 song. How is your solar eclipse experience?

You know, it was okay. I feel a little guilty like I'm an ungrateful participant in God's wonder because I was not properly wowed.

There's a decent chunk of people feeling that way, but they feel weird about saying it because everybody else is like this is the most amazing thing.

Now, look, we were in the weird zone, right?

We are in the weird zone.

We were in the weird zone.

We have like 89% or something.

And the 80, oh, is it really?

And whatever it was doesn't feel that huge.

Right.

Huge.

However, I do enjoy the novelty of it.

It's interesting to me.
