  • And you go, people don't know anything, right?

  • This is so damn stupid.

  • And then you turn the page and there's something about foreign affairs and you're like, wow, super interesting.

  • The thing you know about, you don't apply that same logic to the second thing.

  • And I have to say, I have so much trust in your podcast because the stuff that you do that I was a part of, and there are many things you've done that you don't know that I was a part of, that I was a part of.
