Added: 2026-05-28

[00:00:00]So, a colleague Alex Burns and I wrote this book that was an account of what we thought was really a seminal moment in modern American history, which was the 20 the the the year of 2020 and the and the aftermath. Which was you know, we thought then this story can't get any any crazier and obviously it keeps getting crazier. But the the title holds up, which is this will not pass. And I think it sort of captures the tumultuous nature of politics today and a lot of what we we've mentioned earlier and just how politics has been transformed into this sort of this this this this almost tribal warfare that is consuming American communities and frankly American families. And we try to sort of get at what happened in that fateful 2020 and 2021 period. So, I think folks will learn a lot and our joke is no matter what your politics, if you don't like one chapter, just wait for the next one. Yeah, exactly.

[00:00:49]>> Because if you don't if you don't like team red, wait till the next one, you know. Yeah, exactly.
