Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Munk Craig podcast. I'm Jerry 8, and I'm here with Nick Houseman. How are we doing, pal? You know, it's weird times. And the smallest things that can make me happy, I just make sure I focus on those. By the way, have you seen this? There's a chef who watches other people who are making stuff, and then it really wry commenting on these things wry have you seen this guy

check my twitter feed uh it is the only source of glee i get i think the only source of glee

you have right now is a professional chef putting people down as they make food snark snark

up the wazoo it's cannot. I'm like crying.

You know, we find pleasure in strange places.

You do. We have a whole host of things. We're going to, we're going to preview the

vice presidential debate in a little bit. A reminder, you're going to be listening to

this podcast on Tuesday, October 1st. A reminder, Patreon members, patreon.com slash Mike Craig podcast.

Immediately after the debate, it is going to start at 9 p.m. Eastern. It will be on CBS News. It's

scheduled to be 90 minutes immediately after that debate. Nick and I are going to go live.

Go to patreon.com slash McCrigg podcast in order to watch that live show or to access it later, however you feel like doing it.

A reminder, we are going to bring independent actual analysis.

People keep telling us when they watch the post debate analysis that we give.

They get a lot more out of it than they do with corporate media.

And we hope that you will join us again, patreon.com slash muckering podcast. Absolutely. You know, it's kind of embarrassing when you end up watching what they see on TV. It's bad.

So you're going to want to come and hang out with us as well by becoming a patron. You'll gain access to the weekend or episode that comes out on Friday. You're already listening to Preview. Come hang out with this. Grow the McCrack podcast. We appreciate all of the support. Nick, before we get to the vice presidential debate, we have to talk about some breaking news.

Over the weekend, a lot of things were happening on the border between Israel and Lebanon.

We saw strategic strikes that took out the leadership of Hezbollah in these bombings,

that also, of course, they weren't so strategic.

They killed a bunch of innocent people while they were at it.

A bunch of Israeli forces started gathering on the border. It looked like invasion was imminent.

Well, here we are. Israel has invaded Lebanon. It seems as if special forces have laid the groundwork or gathering intelligence.

They are invading Lebanon. And God knows where this thing's going to go.
