Look, these are the facts: you guys are the perfect fit. On MSNBC, Joyce has to follow the network’s format and strict time limits; unscripted segments feel fragmented without spontaneity except disconnected casual chatter. On Breakdown, Joyce and Allison, prepared and articulate, don’t use a rigid script:just an outline for focus, that encourages spontaneity, sort of like Hillary Clinton, who can talk about anything, anytime, delivering dense info without Bull Sh!t. Breakdown with you two guys have the non-Aristotle contemporary feel interweaving like a Mozart duet fusion with the law and swearing, sort of like this version of For What It’s Worth

Allison, the queen of silently shaming mainstream media by example, shows that Substack and independent media will render mainstream media defunct, if they don’t stop sanitizing the news and parroting lies for the extreme right. They haven’t changed, they’re still hypnotized and comatose. Too Bad. Their loss! Gavin Newsom has shown he can bypass their control of the narrative, and with Allison and other independent media, we can and will reclaim and protect our democracy.

That was a great conversation!! Thanks to both Allison and Joyce for your clarity, generosity, strength, and knowledge. One of the ways I keep myself sane these days is to think about who I would invite to an imaginary dinner party, and you both are on the guest list for sure! Oh the conversations around that table!! Big love from the Canadalands!

Wow - fantastic discussion. Now, more than ever, we need reassurance that we're not doomed. Trump has not broken the system. Thank you for stating that. I'm backing away from the edge of the abyss a little. Maybe I'll go get a footlong sub.
