We ran long with Don, so combined with the slow news cycle for the holidays we just skipped the news this time.
Don’t forget–we love feedback. In particular we’d like to know if you like the guests, or do you like more of the one vs. one approach? It’s a lot of fun to have guests on the show and to do the special interviews and segments. Please let us know if this is getting to be too much or any other thoughts you may have. If you have ideas on guests you’d like to hear, let us know.
