And we're live. Welcome back to the loopcast. It's Tom Erica and Josh. It's another Wednesday, another loopcast. We got PACT Show as always. Today will be a classic edition of Erica actually read all of the new encyclical so you don't have to. I read it. The people, what cracked me up was immediately on Twitter, we get these experts out of the woodwork that have somehow read 40,000 words in the span of an hour and a half and are tweeting out the greatest takeaways, which the grand irony, they definitely probably used AI.

Like they used an AI summary.

It was like, I've seen some good memes.

Or some people got a little early.

Okay, Josh, you've got to be nice to them. But listen, Erica did go through the entire thing and it's going to give us a broad picture of view. What was the tone? What were the main topics? What stuck out to her as an encyclical enjoyer? Some takeaways for Catholics that maybe have little kids or don't have the time for 40,000 words. So we're going to get the important takeaways there.

We had a route is the only maybe have little kids or don't have the time for 40,000 words. So we're going to get the important takeaways there.

We had a route is the only way to put it.

Ken Paxson defeats John Cornyn in Texas.

That's good news for Josh.

We're looking at some takeaways there.

On to James Tala Rico, which will be a very interesting race.

And then we have some redistricting fights kind of popping up once again,

the lack of will or courts throwing them out, a little bit technical, but that's Josh's. That really

gets Josh going in the morning. That's his little espresso in the morning, some nice redistricting.

But we got good news. We got Twilight Zone. What else do we have today?

We've got some Iran updates for what they're worth.

And we have SSPX update as well, kind of a tragedy going on. So we're going to talk about what's going on with SSPX. Yep. Toward the end. Let's talk about, but welcome everyone in the chat.
