Welcome to the Eric Metaxis show with your host, Eric Metaxus.

Hey, folks, welcome to the exciting Eric Mataxis show.

Not to be confused with the other Eric Mataxis show.

I have as my guest the exciting John Smirak. John, welcome to the program.

Hey, Eric. I'm glad I can raise your blood pressure if you're not. Thank you very much, my friend.

Now, listen, we could talk about anything, but I always end up talking to you

about what you've been writing about at stream.org. There are people listening to this program

right now who don't go to stream.org. And you know, and I know, that those people are dead to me.

Dead to me, I tell you.

And yet... Well, they're missing out.

We're going to let them listen to the program anyway. But stream.org, you write articles there all the time. And I think anybody... The reason... I mean, a lot of people would go to, like, to foxnews.com, you know? And I think, like, unless you want to see for the hundredth time this month

what Elizabeth Hurley looks like in a bikini at age 55, if you want actual news, you know,

you might want to go to stream.org. Just saying, just saying. Let me highlight that.

At stream.org, we were defending Nicholas Sandman within two hours of CNN's hit job on it.

We came out and said that Kyle Rittenhouse had been defending himself legitimately two days after the shooting.

How can that compete with a has-been actress rocking, quote-unquote, a bikini on vacation?

How can that possibly compete, Nicholas Sandman?

The only thing I can think of that's worse is watching Sean Hannity interview Lindsey Graham,

and Lindsey Graham promising one more time that we in this, we Republicans in

the Senate will hold the Democrats accountable someday.

Okay. In an alternate universe, I just blew my brains out on camera. Okay, John, let's move on,

please, to something more positive, which would be basically anything. What should we talk about?
