Is it weird to just quote my own story once an hour all day? 🤣
I woke up incredibly early and spent a long time on it, so I just want everyone to read it. Is that so much to ask?

Bummed by how quickly the discourse becomes “The Democrats will squander this opportunity.”
Go with optimism. It feels better.
Obamacare largely sucks but it’s better than no Obamacare. Change is slow, then fast.
Patience. Hope. Optimism. These are good things.
And yes, Democrats should absolutely investigate the Trump administration’s criminality; accountability and meaningful consequences are essential to deterring future wrongdoing.

With the recent online discourse about Ed Zitron and his takes on tech, I’m reminded of an email exchange I had with in him 2013.
I’d sold him podcast ads. He got an invoice.
He replied: “I'm not sure I want to pay. I got literally zero responses emails or anything”
I took inspiration from Steven Spielberg (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088763/trivia/?item=tr0798396&ref_=ext_shr_lnk) for my follow-up:
"Ha! I'll admit, you had Benjamin convinced you were serious for a minute, before I explained that you your email was clearly intended as a joke.
'No PR guy would ever try to skip out on paying for an ad!’ I told him. Hahaha. Talk about bad publicity! ;)
Kidding aside, let's get this paid up today. I know Mule sent you a PayPal invoice, so we should be good to go.”
He paid, and admonished me for threatening him with bad publicity, and said I scammed him with the podcast ads.
Anyway, I’ve been CRO at two podcast media companies, each of which got acquired.
That’s my Ed story.
