Hey guys, it's Tim Miller from the Bullwork here with managing editor Sam Stein, and we live in the stupidest fucking timeline imaginable.

And so some news has happened since we taped the podcast.

There's been a billionaire sumo wrestling match in the White House and a couple of other items, news items got like kind of page six gossip items in normal times, but unfortunately,
