Hey, everybody. I'm Jared J. Jaxston. I'm sick. How you doing, Nick?

I'm Nick Halsman, and I'm not sick, but I feel terrible that you have to go through this.

I'm okay. I'm going to bring it today because we have a lot of stuff to talk about, Nick.

We recorded, just to get people up to speed, we recorded the weekend or last thursday i think it was

thursday afternoon it comes out on friday then thursday night after we recorded literally all hell

broke loose i guess so i mean it's what is hell what is what is time what is you? What is hell when it's constant hells scale?

Yeah. It doesn't even seem like a blip anymore at this point. It's a lot. And so we're going

to catch up on some of that stuff. We have a breaking news story that we have to get to.

But a reminder for everybody, go over to patreon.com slash mark Craig podcast. Support the show, gain access not just to the weekend or on Fridays, but also exclusive post-event analysis. We have a VP debate coming up. And I, for one, am quite interested in seeing Tim Walt's debate, J.D. Vance, for a variety of reasons. Yeah. I mean, again, does any of this move the needle

anyway? Maybe a little bit in the margins. You never know. I'll, you know, take what you get.

But political sickos want to get together after these things, which is why you need to go over to

Patreon.com slash Montcray podcast. Yeah, for sure, because it's a great time, a great conversation,

great community. And I, for one, would have to imagine that if I had predicted that Kamala Harris would win the debate robustly over Trump, then I can't figure how strongly I have to now predict that Walls will just walk over Vance.

Personally, as someone who absolutely loathes J.D. Vance and somehow or another, Nick,

has come to loathe him even more since he was named as the VP candidate.

I, for one, am incredibly excited about getting on here with you and our community and our audience

and celebrating just an absolute shit kicking.

I think that's what's coming.

I think so.

But then again, I have this vision of like, you know, Vance in the most heinous way,

for setting cases in a way that will like, you know, make points that like, that he thinks he's

making points.
