Hey, hey, hey folks, welcome to Man of Steel, the podcast of podcasts on Michael Steel.

Very honored to be with you.

This is the launch.

This is the first time out of the box with this new enterprise.

So glad you could be a part of it.

Certainly pass the word among your friends.

You can catch us on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Tune In, or wherever you get your podcast.

You know how that rolls.

And you can find me on Twitter at Michael Steel.

Now as we launch this show, I wanted to get someone in the room who I've had a conversation

with before.

The idea here folks is you get the chance to sneak peek into a conversation between, in

this case a couple of brothers who know each other and talk a lot.

And it's a real pleasure to welcome to the program Dr. Jason Johnson, a professor of

journalism and communication at Morgan State, the Morgan State University in Baltimore,

Maryland.

He's a political analyst and colleague of mine over at MSNBC.

He's the author of the book Political Consultants and Campaigns One Data Cell.

And politics editor at theroot.com.

Jason, what's up and welcome to the podcast, man.

I am very excited to be here.

If you are the man of field, then I will play the black campus.
