Happy Friday, everyone, as we're working our way toward another summer weekend,

hope your week has gone well, and you're dealing okay with the heat and the humidity that we've had this week. It's been a classic summer week that's been relatively slow news week, short on big stories, which is obviously why comments made on this podcast made such a big splash and were such a critical concern to so many

people, even nationwide. It's just a good time for me this Friday morning to once again,

thank you for listening to the podcast. We appreciate you being here every single day. It's been a big week,

not by design, in any way, shape, or form, but new subscribers, new Twitter followers,

more listeners, downloads went up, all that stuff at a time of year where it's usually very slow.

And I guess that's a blessing.

This is not the kind of thing that I really wanted or seek in any way.

But for most of you that hit the play button every single day,

I just wanted to say thanks and thanks for being here. We really appreciate you. And I know that

you know what this podcast is about and the things we've done. And we're very proud of the work

that we do here. And I will repeat what I've said many times before. You've heard me say it if you've been a

long time listener. If you knew you haven't heard me say this, but this expansion of my

career or broadening of topics that I discuss in the talk format has been really fun for me.

What I've enjoyed most about it all and said it repeatedly is people come up to me now

and like me more than they used to because I'm on the same side of the political aisle as them.

And they feel comfortable to come up and say, oh, I'm a conservative too, man.

That's awesome.
