Hi everyone, Harry here.

Two quick notes before we start.

First, as for the extraordinary chain of events involving Attorney General Barr and the Southern District of New York,

where investigations concerning President Trump are continuing, that's the down the middle kind of developments that call for a talking feds now.

And we put that out Saturday, the same day as the events, and that's still up there.

You can go to talking feds and here, bar McQuade, Andrew Weissman, Matt Miller, and I all give our quick but thorough takes on that important breaking news.

Second, so I've been checking out more podcasts lately, and one that leaves me green with envy.

I mean one that I always enjoy listening to is the Al Franken Podcast, which already is hugely popular, and you probably don't need me to tell you.

Al was, of course, on the show last week, and it was a great one.

The thing is that being Al Franken, he's able to secure any guests he likes, and he opts for super smart and knowledgeable people who are tops in their fields.

And interesting fields, not necessarily politics. Like George Packer or Paul Krugman or Austin Goolsbee.

So it's like listening to really smart friends talk over interesting and important topics. Plus, being Al Franken, it's often funny.

So you should check it out, and then come back to talking feds.
