It's not everyday that you get to sit onstage and interview a woman who could bodyslam you into next week! WWE's Becky Lynch in D.C. March 28, talking with me about her new book & maybe hitting me with a folding chair. Get tix here: sixthandi.org/event/becky-ly…

Not sure why Jeff Bezos can't cough up some extra cash for WaPo reporters. Because we all know 'Democracy dies in darkness.'

We need to differentiate between podcasting and storytelling. Podcasting and journalism. Podcasting and audio-only work. Invest in either, but it’s time to stop thinking Joe Rogan and I have the same job and valuing our output the same way.

Hopping on here for my quarterly tweet. I am obsessed w/the podcast Murder on Sex Island. Jo Firestone is brilliant and clever and everything she does is magic. Bari Finkel is a genius for making Jo's book into a podcast. Every podcast should be like this. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mur…

Happy birthday to Liz Phair’s “Exile in Guyville,” one of the best rock albums ever made—but an album that’s taken on a whole new life in the past few years. I've been obsessed with these songs forever and can't even imagine my life without them.

Whoever created the idea of 'always on' podcasts clearly never made one. B/c unless you have $$$ like NYT or are a zero-production celeb chat circle jerk, it's almost impossible to do. Plus so many good audio stories are being left on the table in wake of the always-on hegemony.

Do you love queers? Do you also love a solid bop? Then you should 100% support Jenn Champion's Kickstarter for her new album. The record biz is trash rn, so supporting an indie artist is a great way to stick it to the man. And during ! DO IT! kickstarter.com/projects/jennc…

You should ask your Senator why they’re meddling in the affairs of the District of Columbia instead of tending to the business of running the country. congress.gov/bill/118th-con…

There's only one good kind of true crime podcast and that's the kind hosted by Keith Morrison. Prove me wrong.
