| 0:00.0 | Hello, I'm Adrian Dobb, and this is in Bed with the Right. So this is the second half of our three-hour |
| 0:07.6 | episode about the lifetimes and copious copious opinions of Andrew Sullivan. This is an episode that we |
| 0:14.7 | released on our Patreon back in the summer. If there are references to heat, that's what that's about. |
| 0:20.6 | We are not, in fact, |
| 0:21.5 | traveling in tropical locales. But we are traveling, which is why this week we decided to |
| 0:27.0 | instead release something from the vault rather than record something new as we're preparing |
| 0:31.4 | to close out the year with two absolute barn burners of episodes, namely the final installment |
| 0:37.2 | of Project 1933 and a deep dive |
| 0:40.8 | into the media hubbub surrounding Olivia Nutsi's American canto featuring frequent friend |
| 0:46.5 | of the pod Michael Hobbs. So we hope you enjoy this re-release from our vaults. And if you do enjoy it, I do want to point out |

| 1:01.2 | either of those two things are on your 2025 bingo card, you still have a couple of days to |
| 1:06.8 | either gift yourself or gift one of your relatives or your mortal enemies or, I don't know, |
| 1:12.3 | Andrew Sullivan, a wonderful gift subscription to our Patreon. |
| 1:18.9 | Thank you so much for being on this journey with us. |
| 1:20.9 | Please enjoy this special holiday episode, re-release. |
| 1:24.1 | Can't wait to see you next week. |
| 1:25.3 | Can't wait to see you in the new year. |
| 1:27.0 | Thank you, |
| 1:28.5 | as always, for listening. |
| 1:45.9 | Hello, I'm Adrienne Dob. And I'm Weirondon. Whether we like it or not, we're in bed with the right. |
| 2:08.5 | So, Adrian, today we are returning to Friend of the Pod, the icon, the Enigma, the One and Only, Andrew Sullivan, a paragon of reactionary centrists, of gay conservatism, of anti-trans and misogynist impulses among gay men, a little crucible of the things that we look at here on the podcast, |
