Oh, you got a little light I've always had it because the closet you guys told me to get one member. Oh, I was very member. I was grainy.

Okay, now you don't remember that huh now you're spooky hold on. Oh, there.

Natural baby. It's literally it's in it's in a sock. I work in the business.

All right, you can scream whenever you want man. Read all about it. Jesus. Extra extra Alex Baldwin not in the news this week. We chose not to.

You get a correction right. That was the fastest to a correction ever. You called him Alex Baldwin. Did I? Yeah.

That let's do that every week. How many words till the first correction? Wow. That's a new record. Wow. That was good. What do we got? I'm I apologize. My voice will undoubtedly go. I'm congested. I guess this head cold. Some call it COVID is lingering. So I apologize to the listeners. I'll do my best. I got to get my COVID test today. I was exposed on Monday. I played in a golf tournament. Uh,

it was a charity fundraiser for the Emmys. They they're starting scholarship funds so that young people ready for this can get started in the business. So that people who dream of working in TV can do it.

Is there a barrier to just moving to a place that has TV and trying to get coffee for someone? Here's the barrier. And this is why it's a great program is.

If you people talk about like, why aren't there enough black directors and why aren't there enough trans sexual headwriters and all that. It's like, well,

what they're doing now is they're just finding people and they're giving them these jobs. And a lot of times they haven't had the training to do it.

I know. I know. You're a woman. And so against minorities coming into the business. We know that you've made it very clear.

So what you need is a pipeline. You need people because, you know, you're working for 500 bucks a week when you're getting coffee for somebody and you're living in a city where you got to pay $1,000 a month in rent.

So it doesn't work. And so these scholarship funds help people that are more diverse to get started. Yeah. I'm glad you said pipeline instead of railroad. Oh, hey now.

There you go. It's by the way. There's nothing racist about that. I'm just it is a whatever. Go ahead. I'm going to take the class.

Did you read the underground railroad or see the TV series? No, I know how it ends. Yeah.

And you can say it's a happy ending. It's not. It's it's hundreds of years later. And still not a happy ending. No. Yeah. No.

Oh boy. We got a big day tomorrow, Mike. Holy mother of God. Well, it's really today. Right. This is the Sunday papers. Today's Sunday, the 31st. Happy Halloween, everybody. That's right. Yeah.

Halloween was for many, many years. My favorite holiday of the year because it was just always the bet from ages. Oh, five until probably 25, maybe 23. When you were gay.

It was so fun to dress up as a woman every year. Did you ever dress as a woman for Halloween? Did you ever go down that route? No, and I can safely say none of the other days of the year, either, unlike you. I would know, but just so you know, I think I've told the story before, but just briefly with Caitlin Jenner.

I asked her, I go, you know, when did this, you know, when did you start acting, you know, on, on your feelings of not being a man. And she said, Halloween was my favorite holiday because it was my, it was a built in excuse to dress like a woman. And other than that, she would go out for drives in Malibu.

And especially like the canyons where she knew, like, you know, you basically can't get pulled over. There's no, like, you know, traffic or anything like that. And there's no red lights. So, yeah, she would dress as a woman on Halloween.

That's why I like Columbus Day because I get to be racist and really embrace it.
