Welcome to the Advisory Opinions Podcast. This is David French without Sarah Isger. Sarah,

my brilliant co-host is on vacation. She's on vacation taking a well-deserved leave of absence.

Well, leave of absence for one whole week from the Advisory Opinions Podcast. But I know you guys

are already disappointed in this podcast. I know you're already frustrated and angry. But do not

press pause. Do not skip. I have a great guest. Greg Lukianoff, president of fire, my friend,

fire foundation for individual rights and education. And this guest spot is particularly salient

because his presence on this podcast is a demonstration at a tangible way of how both Greg and I

are responsive to donors and fans. So Greg, do you want to tell the people what happened?

So we got this really troublesome, oh, for personal thanks for having me on. Welcome to the

DC area. We got this email from a donor who said, I used to give $200 a month and I'm

David, we're hemorrhagic money. This is unsustainable. And it was kind of kidding a little bit,

but you know, so David immediately ran me on. So nobody can say we're not responsive to donors.

I expect that $200 to go back. Please, thank you very much.

Exactly. It was, I mean, the responsiveness was pretty frighteningly immediate actually.

So it was like we didn't have anything else to do. Maybe we didn't have anything else to do.

Well, what was perfect about it is Sarah was going on vacation and I was like, I need a guest.

And then your email popped in my inbox. It's like, oh, problem solved. Donor satisfied.

Fan happy. I mean, this is for you. Yes, free speech on campus solve. So this is for you,

donor slash fan, this podcast. All right. So let's sort of set up what the podcast is going to be.

So Greg, he runs fire. My longtime friend, we used to work together at fire.

Gosh, we worked together at fire before I was at fire because you were the legal director at fire.
