It is Monday, June 28th.

0:05.0

I'm Sam Cedar.

0:08.0

Folks, regular listeners of the AM Quickey, we have some bad news for you today.

0:14.0

Not horrible news, but not great news.

0:17.0

We are taking a hiatus with the AM Quickey, hopefully just for the summer. Maybe to return

0:23.4

in September, we shall see a whole host of reasons why that's the case. But the good news is

0:29.9

we're going to develop an email product. And so much of what you have heard over the past now almost two years from the A.M. Quickey,

0:40.4

hopefully we will be delivering to you in another form.

0:44.6

The show has been written by Jack Crosby and Corey Pine.

0:50.2

And the show has been cut and produced by Dorsey Shaw.

0:55.0

And of course, my co-host on this show, Lucy Steiner, has been co-hosting the show and voicing it every other day or I don't know how we did it.

1:04.9

Two days a week and then three days a week on and off.

1:07.5

pretty simple. Reading the news for some reason makes me extremely unhappy. And reading it out

1:33.4

loud for some reason is particularly miserable. I've been a fan of the majority report for a very

1:38.5

long time. I've been a fan of Sam for a very long time. It was really cool to get to do this for

1:43.6

a while. And it's sort of surreal to be leaving it voluntarily. But, you know, I don't know. I don't know if the quickie is the best it could be with me, to be honest with you. I mean, I think that there could be a great voice on here that's comfortable, editorializing a little bit more seriously on the news. that could maybe do a better job. And that's really why I'm leaving. I mean, it's not even that I don't need work.

1:44.4

Like, I, editorializing a little bit more seriously on the news. That could maybe do a better job.

2:01.8

And that's really why I'm leaving. I mean, it's not even that I don't need work. Like, I kind of do. I'm a great bartender. I mean, if you need a bartender in the New York City area, totally hire me. And I'm going to be working on some projects that you'll hopefully be able to check out in the near future. But, you know, in the meantime,
