Welcome to the global phenomenon, surviving the survivor, where we bring you the best guests in all of true crime.

Here's your host, Emmy Award winning journalist Joel Waldman.

What's up, SCS Nation? Welcome. Look at that. That's the first, a cat tail before we even get going.

We are a pet-friendly show. So, Chewy, where are you, man?

You should be sponsoring us, but the cat just took over before I could even get going.

It's going to be a weird Thursday, and I can tell.

But welcome to Survive and Survivor, the podcast.

That promises to bring you the very best guests in all of true crime.

And I hate to say it, but this is another amazing panel, one after the other.

If you can find better panels anywhere else, you name it, I will give you your money back because it ain't going to happen.

But there is a lot of Luigi Mangione news.

By the way, before we get cracking with that, pun intended, you look behind Tim Jansen,

those are nutcrackers.

And Tim's annual 26th year of his Christmas party this Monday night, I'm honored to say I have an invite,

but I don't think I can make it because different circumstances and Tim's eight hours away.

And it's freezing where he is right now up in Tallahassee, unlike Miami.

However, it is the hottest ticket in town.

Three hundred plus people.

Tim, how long do you guys prepare for this party before we get into Luigi? Maybe nine weeks. Wow. Seven days a week. And you've got, your wife's got

boxes of decorations from year to years. Tractor, trailer full of equipment. I should do, one day I'm going to send you a video of the highlight of it so you can see.

This is full production, and we were honored when the White House copied our theme this year of Christmas carousel.

There you go.
