Hey, everybody, welcome to the show. It's your old friend Seth Voicenote Myers on the eve of Christmas Eve,

sitting in a bathroom by myself to record this special message to all of you. We just recorded our

second Criterion episode where I was joined by Lynn Manuel Miranda and Amir Questlove Thompson,

and we ran through the second set of 30 plus digital shorts to decide whether or not they

rose to the standard of a criterion episode or whether they were simply Kim's video or

whether they just fully didn't deserve any sort of label whatsoever.

It was a fantastic episode. I can't thank both of them enough for joining us.

But I also can't thank our friends Mike Scher and Jake Tapper, who earlier joined us to run through the first set of digital shorts and gave us this very idea to do a roundup with a couple of special

guests. And to prepare you for part two, we thought we would do a holiday re-airing of part one,

while we all rest through the holiday seasons to say, yes, a gong. As we recently learned that a gong was sort of a British elf. So,

you know, this is a good time of year to see a gong. Anyway, do enjoy and happy holidays to all

the quads who celebrate. It's a lonely island and Seth Myers cried.

Also, I'm adding a second quick voice note to say that I'm in the bathroom for acoustics.

I'm not going to the bathroom.

And I feel like most of you who are listening know that, but I didn't want to a week from now

get a text from Sandberg saying, Oh, were you? Number one and number two. You didn't want to a week from now get a text from Sandberg saying,

Oh, were you number one or number two?

Yeah, it's safe.

It was number one or number two.

All right, enjoy quades.
