Hi folks, this is Rick Wilson and welcome to the Daily Beasts, the new abnormal.

Hi, I'm Molly John Fass, novelist, activist, and editor at large at the Daily Beast,

and the person who tells Rick not to treat the things he wants to treat.

I'm an editor at large at the Daily Beast, a former Republican political strategist, best

selling author and full-time troublemaker.

The new abnormal is about one nation under a pandemic and how it's changing all of us.

Well look at what's happening in the country and the culture and look at good and bad

people, leadership, and ideas.

Molly and I come from very different political worlds.

But what brings us together is that we both love America and we realize that putting country

over party and ideas over ideology might be the only thing that gets us through this.

We'll be joined by smart guests from politics, media, culture, medicine, and science.

I'll also try to keep Rick to the minimum number of curse words and I'll try to keep our pets

and other wildlife sounds from invading our respective bunkers.

We're both very excited to bring you the new abnormal.

So please hit subscribe in your favorite podcast app and tune in every Tuesday and Friday

to join us for the conversations we all need right now.
