My friend Tym wants to send him a note, but doesn’t have his address:

Dear Mr. Scaramucci,

My name is Artyom Matusov, and I attended the SplinterNews viewing of your documentary Monday night in Manhattan, where you appeared afterward for a discussion with Hamilton Nolan (I was sitting near the front, wearing a black […]

Becoming has already sold more than a million copies — and I’m guessing almost all those readers will shortly be recommending it to others, as I am to you.  If you listen at normal speed, you’ll have 19 intimate hours with this wonderful, amazing woman — just you and she.

Where she finds the […]

That one — here interviewing the Beach boys in 1964 — had no E at the end of his name and no national security credentials.

This one — Clarke, not Clark — is an American hero whose podcast, FUTURE STATE, may qualify for your queue.  Two recent ones I commend:

The Constitution at Risk

Hey, Trump fans!  Take a minute to hear Ronald Reagan out.  As Fareed Zakaria laid out in under four minutes Sunday, we are ceding the field to China.  Trump is exactly what Reagan was warning against.  The tragic fact is that America — until 2017, the world’s acknowledged leader — is being rapidly diminished […]

I’ve long favored Instant Runoff Voting — also called Ranked-Choice Voting.

It’s the very simple idea that if you’re ordering a lychee frozen margarita and the waiter says he’s not sure they have lychee today, you say, “well, if they don’t have lychee, I’ll take pineapple.”

Just substitute Ralph Nader for lychee and Al […]

Like so many of life’s basic rules (a watched pot sometimes does boil), “never date an actor” turns out to have its exceptions.

Want to spend more money on ice cream than you ever thought possible? 

I scream, you scream and now the Milk […]

This turns out to be a week — at least loosely — about reconciliation.

Monday, I posted “The Conversation.”

Yesterday, I responded to Carl.

Today, Carl responds to me.

But first, in case you missed it, here is Pete Davidson apologizing to former Navy SEAL and Republican Congressman-elect Lt. Dan Crenshaw on Saturday Night […]

But first:  This is so cool.  See what the partnership of the New York Times and Google Cloud can do to illuminate photos and history.

Have fun.

And second:  see “The New One” on Broadway — as raved here (and in whose limited-run success I have a minuscule stake).

Even more fun!

Less fun:

Carl […]

A few days before the election, Dash Katz’s Catholic grandmother was — as you’ll see — willing to talk about anything but politics.  Herewith a 4-minute abridgment of their exceptionally human 37-minute conversation: “What It Took To Flip My 90-Year-Old Grandma Blue.”  Where did this young man find the patience?  Hats off to him — […]

But before I get to that, a few other things . . .

First (in case you own it):

GLDD: Momentum Builds. Well — finally.  I’ve written about this every so often for ever.  Like here in 2006, when GLDD was ALBA warrants with a different symbol.  (We actually made good money on those warrants.)  And […]
