You're listening to serious inquiries only. Oh, Hello and I'm your host

Thomas Smith. All right today as promised the part two on Syria where I want to

talk about the reaction to Trump's action and what I think about it, what some other people think about it, and as I alluded to last episode, the answer may surprise you.

Click Beatty kind of thing that probably is not really effective as click-Bade.

But anyway, that's what I'm going to talk about.

I've got lots of time because I'm doing this early, I'm not doing it on Thursday.

There's not going to be a voicemail segment, so plenty of time to sit down and say everything that I've intended to say about Syria.

Oh, quick note, I've gotten this question a couple times

where people and I just got it after Thursday's episode hey why do you always say you're

running out of time or not always but why have you said you're running out of time in an episode

You're doing a podcast. It's not radio. Yeah, understood

Apologies if that upset some people but here's the thing with this

podcast being twice a week and with sharing a huge percentage of

listeners with opening arguments that's twice a week and with the amount of media and

podcast everybody's consuming I'm very sensitive to the fact that if if I over

saturate with content people just don't listen to it like there's just not enough

time in the week so I'm not going to do four hours of

podcasts in a week or something like that. I'm not going to release a two and a half

hour one unless there's like a real emergency. I'm shooting. I'm always shooting for 45 to 60 minutes.

That's my target because that's the amount that I think people and the tracking data I have

shows that that's what people actually listen to.

I'm not interested in putting out a bunch of content that only 10% of you are going to finish or something like that.
