Another Movie Chat Where We Try to Take a Break From Politics

Hello Friends,It was nice to have Peter William Murphy join us again. I’m getting a kick out of his chaotic Monday podcast. He’s been pulling out all the stops and he’s the first Substack user I’ve seen to openly parody the idea of a livestream. I guess Ben is their next guest, so I’ll be sure to tune in to that.We can’t take ourselves too seriously… lord knows there are enough jerks out there who take themselves too seriously.This week, we went all over the place with our conversation and somehow managed to end up on Game of Thrones. Peter ran off to show us his direwolf costume… only to have it turn out to be a selection of books. The books were cool enough that I wasn’t all that disappointed.Ben keeps organizing guests for this and I appreciate that, he’s doing a wonderful job.Thanks, and I hope this talk gives you a break from all the nonsense we have to deal with.Thank you Brandon Ellrich, Abby Paradis, Flora M Brown, Sandra Wenner, John Pearce, and many others for tuning into my live video with Ben Ulansey and Peter William Murphy!You all make this newsletter happen!
