Mickey’s love is bigger than a Subaru. Mickey still thinks you need unions for a wage-price spiral. Larry Summers on the big omission from the Inflation Reduction Act. Mickey’s pick for the Democratic nomination (hint: she’s young). DeSantis is mean, but is he really more dangerous than Trump? Nobody expects the ferret inquisition. Ben Smith’s brilliant, witty book, which hasn’t been written yet. Mickey: Blogging went all to hell before Ben Smith even showed up. Mickey’s semi-discreet take on Rob Reiner. Does Xi Jinping know your passwords? The Hollywood ending to the Supreme Court leaker story. Has Norm Ornstein gone berserk? The narcissistic version of cognitive empathy. Another dubious Thiel takedown. The Norway Walruscide. The Placido rumor. Republicans go to war against ESG. Bob pretends he knows what Flow is. Mickey imagines a Flow that meets his needs. Soros’s prosecutor wins one. Bob triggered by Washington Post Maidan description. Zelinsky has some explaining to do. Immigrants polling badly. The price of dinner with Raphael Warnock. Who will tell Jill that Joe is too old? Bob gets back to Get Back. Mickey: No more Pauls! Ron DeSantis has nothing on Bob Dylan. Mickey—sorry, the parrot—totally botches Total Eclipse of the Heart.
This dialogue is (in part, at least) a continuation of a publicly available dialogue taped earlier in the day.
