My hunch is that people would hate journalists a lot less if they started speaking truth to power and stopped protecting power from the truth.

Good morning to everyone except people still pretending LeBron James is the GOAT.

I grew up in a liberal society where people said 'hey, it's a free country!'

Now I live in a 'Progressive' society where no one says that anymore...even as a joke.

ZUBY: Someone is falling in love for the first time.

Someone has just given birth to a beautiful new soul.

Someone is working on something that will change all our lives for the better.

There is plenty of good happening, we just don't see most of it.

UPDATE:

Still isn't.

I'm convinced lifting weights was the best decision I ever made:

- It's an amazing anti-depressant
- It instills strong discipline
- I don't look my age

If you don't have a weight training regimen, get one.

You'll be shocked by how your life will change.

We're all disturbed by the barbarity unfolding right now.

Visit a museum.
Listen to great music.
Read great literature.
Take in a classic film.

The more we see humanity's ugliness, the more we must heal by reminding ourselves of the stunning beauty of which it is also capable.

In 2020 I took what I thought was my last bow on a NYC stage.

In 14 days, I'll be back.

Not only that:

I'm playing one of Shakespeare's sickest villains, and working with one of America's greatest actors.

...but only for 2 nights.

Get tickets while you can 😎

The more I follow my intuition, the more I reject modern culture.

The more I reject modern culture, the freer I feel.

The freer I feel, the happier I am.

The happier I am, the more I'm rejected by modern culture.

A few fiction books I wish everyone read:

The Great Gatsby (Fitzgerald)
Foundation (Asimov)
Gates of Fire (Pressfield)
The Count of Monte Cristo (Dumas)
The Nightingale (Hannah)
East of Eden (Steinbeck)
The Name of the Wind (Rothfuss)
Dune (Herbert)
Pachinko (Lee)

The number of historical events we're living through is actually insane.

Can't wait to listen Clifton Duncan and John McWhorter!!

Get well soon Glenn Loury.

Rocked by lay-offs, cuts, & closures, some fear show business is 'over.'

With vast entertainment options & new tech, insiders say we're in a 'post-industry' world, & the pendulum won't swing back.

Industry expert Chris Gore, however, has other ideas.

New podcast out now.

Chris Gore was great on Clifton Duncan podcast

I hope Chris Gore gets better soon so he can share more of his thoughts.

I hope Chris understands how much people care for him.

Get well soon.

I really wish I could convey to young people just how awesome it was to be a kid in the 80s and 90s, before cellphones and internet and social media exploded.

After a decade of 'Progress,' everything's the worst it's been in 10 years.

I used to think intellectuals were smart because they studied books, but the best education I got came from people who studied life.

Not ONE of these campus revolutionaries said a word when their government stole critical years of their young lives for the sake of a cold.

They'll stand up for Gazans, for Ukranians, for non-citizens—ANYone, except for themselves and other Americans.

I'm not impressed.

True education begins with unlearning.

People claim that identifying with fictional characters is about sharing the same race, gender or sexuality...but that's nonsense.

Culture critic Chris Gore explains why.

New podcast drops tomorrow.

Stay tuned.
