Welcome to a second advisory opinions podcast of the week operating under the principle

of you got to give the people what they want.

The people want a second podcast in the week and so here we are and it's a particularly

timely podcast because for those of you who care about the law who care about the powers

of the presidency who care about campaigns what a week it's been.

But before we dive into our three main topics today which are going to be Roger Stone,

the dark arts of opposition research and the Netflix series cheer.

I bet you didn't see that one coming.

I'm going to remind you again that the paywall is coming.

So last week or earlier this week Sarah did not like my comparison of calling it like

an iron curtain descending across the internet.

How about like the black gate of Mordor slamming shut.

The paywall is coming.

I thought like you were going to go with winter is coming that I'm down with.

I actually went and I went and I reminded myself of what was the name of the black gate

of Mordor.

Do you do you remember what it is in Sundar and the Elven language?

You're joking right?

I would not joke about such things.

It is definitely not a thousand times don't it is more anon more anon.

It's the name of the black gate of Mordor.

So anyway that's a long way of saying the paywall is coming at the dispatch.
