That's me.

I'm speaking to you right now from Vox Media headquarters, but this is a special episode

which we recorded somewhere else in New York City at Joe's Pub.

It was a live show we did with Sam B.

Kevin Riley from Turner Networks. It's awesome. You'll enjoy it. Thanks to Erickson, which sponsored this whole thing. And thanks to you guys for showing up. We will send you there right now. Hi, I'm Peter Kafka. I'm part of the Vox Media Podcast Network, and I'm talking to you today from Joe's Pub, which is super cool

because we talked about

doing a live podcast

I was thinking

we were going to do

like a tiny little theater and maybe some beer in the back. We were talking about maybe going to a bar after the show. But here we are. I saw there was lobster stuff being passed around. Very cool. Thanks for coming. Thanks for coming to see our awesome interviewees. Normally I don't really ramble on very long because why would I want to do that when I have awesome guests like Sam B and Kevin Raleigh from Turner. Let's bring him up and we'll talk to him.

Great. Hi. Hello. Oh, you're so nice.

Oh, really. Thank so much.

Thank you very much. I love this. Hello. I had no idea they love me so much. I know. I love your Beyonce mics. I'm very comfortable like this. They are here to talk to you. Clearly. Let's get down to it. I have my nap will now. Should we dispense with some stuff? Should we talk about your birthday? Oh, it's tomorrow. Happy almost birthday. Thank you so much. Thank you. Yay. I am 48. That was the tough question. That was easy from here. You haven't shown tomorrow. It's your first show in a couple weeks yes yeah we we well stupid sportball

preempted us last week so um so um who's sports keeps tv alive and tv advertising

pays some of our salaries so we did not have a show last week but we have one tomorrow
