Hello everybody and happy Tuesday. This is the Derek Hunter podcast and as your keen ears have told you, I am back. It is Dean Carrianus from the New York Sun.

I am host of the History Author show on I.

Radio and produce some of those up on YouTube and I was a member of

Russell and Baw's highly overrated staff for 25 plus years which sounds like a

long time since I am still just a kid at heart. Derek is out for the rest of the week, but I will be here.

He was very kind to ask me to come back. Go to Patreon.com slash Derek Hunter podcast and to Derek Hunter. Locals. dot

Derek Hunter podcast and to Derek Hunter dot locals.com.

Support the show, get a look at some of that behind the scenes content.

Be participating in a two-way bond that you don't often get to do anymore. I'm sorry to say in

talk radio. Plus you get the weekend F and review the news the way it deserves to

be talked about and these days I would say probably I'm going to have to teach

Derek some Greek curse words because the standard ones don't seem to be enough to talk about

the mess that we find our nation and our

world in on many fronts, but let's be of good cheer. Let's hit it. That's something

that is so important to me relates to that idea of making that friendship, that connection with people listening at home.

Russia always said that radio when done right was the most intimate of mediums.

And boy, I feel like that's so so lost I feel like everybody that's on

radio really wants to be on TV everybody that's on radio wants to vomit

everything all over Twitter and Instagram and whatever Gab is, Gab's a thing, right?

And they want to sell, sell, sell.

And I know when I read that line there about Patreon.com slash Darkhunter podcast, I feel a little twinge of I'm selling to people I don't like to sell them. You guys remember that scene if you saw the movie and they're asking John Kousak's character,

what do you want to do?
