Welcome to the Eric Mattaxas show.

It's a nutritious smoothie of creamy, fresh yogurt, vanilla, protein powder, and a mushy banana.

For your mind, drink it all down.

It's nummy.

I wub, vanilla. Here comes Eric Metaxis.

Folks, welcome to hour two, where I will stop talking about my European vacation and we'll

start talking to John Zmirak about what's going on in the world. John Zmirak, if I seem a little

fried to you, it's because I woke up at 2.30 this morning because I'm still on Athens time. So I am completely whacked out. And I think that's good because I'll let you do more talking. I think you just, you should just crawl into an Uzo bottle for the next 24 hours until your body recalibrates it's a little it's a little hard

to be back they let me keep the tan but uh i have to tell you i have to tell you it's it's it's a little

difficult to to be back and as i said in the previous hour i woke up at 2 30 this morning

and turn on turn a classic movie and i watched check cinema from the early 60s. You know, you're just like in another world.

Nobody's up. It's like, you know, the middle of the night. But anyway, I'm up at that hour,

by the way. So if you ever need to call someone, my sleeping hours at 3 a.m. to 11 a.m.

So. Wow. Yeah. What 11 a.m. Wow.

Yeah.

What a life.

Well, you know, one of the things about this vacation was that I assiduously avoided the news.

I just thought I need to unplug and let somebody else talk about that stuff.
