Hey everyone it's Brandon. Today we're going to be doing something a little different with the show.

In addition to the devil within, I produce a show for my friend and colleague Yasmin Alia Khan. You may already be familiar with Miss Khan's work as a contributor to TYT where she dissects the leading political

that don't quite fit with the T YT audience, but are timely and necessary nonetheless.

I love producing the show for Yasmin and wanted to share

Modern Context with Gasmond Alya Khan is available wherever you get your podcasts.

Plus full episodes are available on YouTube.

We cooked dinner together, but again, that's pretty normal.

He didn't get me any chocolates because we already

have enough chocolate in the house and he didn't get me flowers because it's the
