I know you’re burning the candle at both ends, and probably have it set rotating on a spot to boot, but your talk about the podcast really excited me.

I love Todd’s writing and his cover work. It goes without saying for many others in the horror community and would lose my mind at the chance to hear you pick Keisling’s brain for an hour and a half. Your annex could be a great spot to add a kick ass studio, too. I’m seeing it in my head now.

Thanks for all you do

If you ever get to talk to Obama I am dying to know who recommended Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands to him and would love to hear him talk about that book. (I assume he must have really enjoyed it since it ended up on his list of favorite books for the year).

Off topic for today's newsletter but I've got a question: what's the deal with Tom Monteleone? I found myself subscribed to his Substack, which I didn't do. It was quite the read, though....

Yeah, I heard he spammed something like 5,000 people with a rehash of all that stuff from last year, but claims he doesn't know how it happened? Here's the thing about Substack: you have to upload your email address list yourself and choose to mail it out. When you do add subscribers, Substack requires you to manually type in where your emails came from and you check a box saying you have their permission. So either he did it, or (more likely) whoever he has helping him with Substack did it. Apparently, it wasn't well received.

That's an understatement!! People were PISSED. I'm going to stay subscribed for a bit, but he sounded like a typical tRUMPlican with some of his gripes. I'll bail if that turns out to be the case. Was just curious and I know you usually have the "tea"!! 😂
