I was listening to this in the car with my 8-year-old. When we got out, she was begging for my phone so she could finish it. Now she's in the kitchen insisting that Catrin Einhorn listen to it, and saying, "So cool right? Right?" Lulu Miller. So cool. Always.

This morning, I opened my email, and my 11-year-old had sent me a QR code. I scanned it. He’d rickrolled me. It was the best.

Compromise… Happy Thanksgiving.

I have been lucky in so many ways. One of which is to have friends who can write and make things that I know will be illuminating, inspiring and meaningful without reading or hearing a word. This is the latest. And I really can’t wait. Congrats Andrew.

I watched a gentleman — in his late 70s or maybe early 80s — wheel an enormous Costco cart to the register today. Nothing in it but shrimp cocktail, mashed potatoes, chicken salad and garbage bags. That’s incredible willpower and focus.

Public radio is a haven for thoughtful people who want to make the world better. My thoughts are with them, the system they hold up, and what they build. I root for you every day. And I am just so very sorry.

The biggest change I’ve noticed on Twitter is that I get a lot less from people I follow — like Stephen King. Instead, I get more viral garbage and videos designed for gawking. I dislike it more and more. And it’s much less useful as a path to the ideas and thoughts of others.

Wordle gets all the attention. But I’m a quiet fan of letter boxed. If you can do it in two words it’s a good day. This one goes out to ⁦Catrin Einhorn⁩.

This is utterly heartbreaking. I am thinking of so many great journalists, projects, shows and full hearts that made that station a home to the values and craft that draw us all to this work.

12 year old listening to a story about AI on NPR. "Haven't we made enough movies about robots killing all the people?... Play stupid games, win stupid prizes."

This is the best summary anyone’s made about Donald Trump’s plans for his second term. It’s lucid, powerful and undeniable. Must-listen! Seriously. pca.st/podcast/4eb5b2…

The story of the astronauts who have been stuck in space for months— and have fallen off the radar screen of the public consciousness after an initial omg… it’s so compelling… this cookie decorating party… the stuff of short stories. Also, happy holidays to all of them.

When I was a young radio reporter, Craig Dellimore told me, “You have to be able to get sound out of a meatloaf.” From then on, I carried an arsenal of connectors, pads and turnarounds. His kind advice saved me so many times. Came across these today. Thank you, Craig.
