Hello, everyone, and welcome to another episode of Getting Hammered.

I'm your host, Mary Catherine Ham. I am here with my co-host, Mick Mattis of the Washington

Free Beacon. There's a lot going on. We got

some State of the Union updates. We have some Oscar news. We have some royal news that I want to get

into. But before we do all that, let me also say we are remote today and we'll be remote this

week because I am off to Israel. So I will keep you posted on that

trip. I don't have anything to tell yet because have I packed? Am I ready? No, none of those things.

But I will be by tomorrow morning. In the meantime, how's going, Vic? Hello, Mary Catherine.

It's going fine, although I'm sad that we are remote and not in person together

because I made another batch of Long Island iced teas for you at this lovely hour. I'm sure you'd

enjoy it right now, along with your Cheetah for breakfast. Who doesn't love a morning ice tea?

And it's always a Long Island ice tea. Yes. How did you, did you recover fine from that?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Because I get, you know, you're mixing what, four or five different spirits.

It's, it can be a little dicey.

If I had had another one, it would have gone badly.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, we were, I was out.

Kate and I were out with some friends on a Saturday night and we were at a Greek restaurant and got a little carried

away and I got conned into drinking Uzo.

Oh.
