It's the first episode, and I don't know what I'm doing. I talk about why I'm starting this (and why this isn't a Substack), explain the title (shoutout to Anton Newcombe and The Brian Jonestown Massacre), being in the mid-Hudson Valley during the winter, someone needs to check on the staff at New York Mag, why isn't there bar-chat etiquette, AI and Google Maps have gotten shockingly bad, the Milano Cortina opening ceremony, Nike's #eagleskirt, my issues with Ralph Lauren for Team USA / Ben Sherman for Team GB, and ideas for an epic LA 2028.
