Dan, how do you have time to listen to all those podcasts, read Substack, read umpteen books that you share with us, do your podcast, do AMA's, write the emails you send to us, meet your your team for planning, have time for family and friends, exercise and let's not forget meditate sometimes for one hour! It's all I can do to just listen to YOUR podcast and keep up with work!
The horns did their job and put a smile on my face! I used to be so engaged in political discourse, it was a passion. So was so curious and open. Over the last 12yrs I’ve participated in a slow death march to this point where I watch no news, read no newspapers, podcasts, no more social media. It all fucks with my mental health. Wish I knew how to protect my peace and stay engaged.
Thank you, thank you for offering a potentially stabilizing program during an energetically erratic week. Unlike yourself, I do not listen to, or read, political news any longer. When my husband is tempted to tell me something about the incoming administration I ask him, with this further my life in a positive direction. Is this something I need to have in my consciousness. He always answers no and refrains. I harbor no ill will towards the right, I'm just not interested. I would rather listen to a Dan Harris or Michael Singer podcas. In this vein, Thank you again.
On the video: Bill Bailey is a multitalented genius and in England many consider him to be a National Treasure. I recommend looking for more of his videos in order to get an inspiring boost to one's system.
Happy Friday, great fixation info. I will be listening to the taped gatherings, unfortunately I can’t do any of the lives. 😭 I am nervous about inauguration week. I notice my gut gets tight when I think about it. Been doing a lot of meditation. Gonna be a wild ride. 😬
Good morning! Thank you for this. I'm always looking for trusted people to follow. Your list helps. I feel like together we can get through whatever is coming.
He published a book about birds. Also, another book titled Bill Bailey's Remarkable Guide to Happiness, which I will be ordering. In England, he is often referred to as a National Treasure. Watching more Bill Bailey videos equals a happines boost. Genius musician and good person.
I also like to keep an ear/eye on what Podsave America is presenting. Whip smart and wicked funny (OK maybe a bit snarky but hey, I like that :) And definitely the amazing Heather Cox Richardson.

Ha! Fair question! I do a lot of skimming…
😂👍🏼
Dan have you read or listened to Heather cox richardson, the historian? So good.
Yes, that’s a glaring omission! She’s great.

Do what you’ve got to do. That’s my view. Sounds like you found something that works.

Thank you for the list, Dan. I'm new to Substack, so it's great to have a bit of a guided tour.

The horns completely on point. Thanks for sharing.

The Ink by Anand Giridharadas is a must read. I have high hopes for The Contrarian
Looking forward to the lives! Another great political newsletter is Tangle (not on this app) with intelligent analysis from all sides.
Yes, they do a really good job

Thank you for this. As I work on the noise in my head, I also need help with the noise that comes into my head from the outside.
Good morning! Loved these Friday fixations. Always something interesting in them❣️ Those horns will be in my head all day 😜
The amazingly talented Bill Bailey who has a lot more to offer than music, check him out.

Dan, we Lions fans are pretty sad at this moment...looking grim at this point in the game (45-28). My consolation: Your Alexander will be so happy!
