Hello, welcome to Why is this happening with me, your host, Chris Hayes.

Today is a very special day, every day is special and with Favita is a very special day because

for a number of reasons.

It is the twice annual with Pod Mailbag episode and we have a new special friend guest today.

So if you're a listener of the podcast, you know that once or twice a year we do a Mailbag

episode, we solicit input and emails, tweets, questions and feedback, compliments, which

we love from you guys about how great we are, how great the podcast is and then we just read

them back to you.

It's good content.

And so we do that twice a year.

I've been pushing for like every other week, but Tiffany sort of vetoed that, but we have

a new person introduced today who you may know of who is Donnie Holloway.

Donnie joined us last calendar year in 2021 as a full-time, wise, this happening producer.

Works on the podcast along with Tiffany who still works on the podcast as well and who

is our line producer on the nightly show.

So and Tiffany and Donnie are both here, but Donnie, welcome to your first on air appearance

on why is this happening.

It's great to have you.

Thank you so much, Chris.

I've been looking so forward to my with Pod debut and I'm really glad to be a part of

the team.

And Tiffany, how you doing?
