Change comes in excruciating increments to those who want it.

I have a 430am wakeup and an extremely comfy Marriott bed and yet I will watch every minute of this last Late Shoe ep.

I was such a huge fan of Dave’s Late Show, and the whole Dave/Jay late night “battle”. all those memories come rushing back. I wouldn’t miss this for the world

I just had the craziest experience at the airport.

We are about to board a flight to Atlanta when the pilot from the incoming plane walks out of the jetway. Guy is probably late 50s, salt and pepper hair, military look. The kind of pilot you instantly feel good about seeing on your flight.

Pilot walks over to the counter, gets on the PA system, and starts addressing everyone. “Folks, I’ve been doing this a long time. Flying one of these jets is easy. The hard part is looking at 130 people and telling them their flight is going to be delayed.”

Audible groans throughout the boarding gate. Most people here are flying to Atlanta as a layover before another flight. 130 people just had their day become a complete mess.

The pilot goes on. “I get it, trust me. But here’s the deal: During our landing, we had a small mechanical issue. I’m not your pilot for the next leg, but I don’t feel confident the jet’s safe to fly until we have a mechanical team look it over, and I don’t feel comfortable asking the next pilots to fly you guys until we get confirmation.”

He points at the agents next to him behind the counter: “Now, none of this is the agents’ fault. Please be kind to them. I’m the one who made this decision, not them, so any inconvenience you experience is my fault. Just please know that I don’t do this lightly, and I’m only doing it because I believe it’s in the best interests of everyone’s safety.”

Now this is where the story gets crazy. The pilot puts the microphone down, grabs his suitcase, and all the people in the gate…

Start clapping.

I’m not joking, everyone starts clapping for the guy. 130 people who just had their travel plans ruined give an ovation to the guy who made the decision and delivered the message.

All because he addressed them with decency and transparency, took ownership of the decision, made it clear that it was necessary, and explained why it was in everyone’s best interest.

It’s honestly one of the best examples of strong communication—of strong leadership, for that matter—that I’ve seen in a long time.

@Delta, whoever your Atlanta to Wichita pilot was this morning, he’s one of the good ones. Please tell him the delayed passengers of flight 1637 appreciate what he did.

Tonight’s SNL Weekend update can only be described as diabolical

Dying. “Goodnight and good luck, motherfuckers”

The end of the Late Show is a mistake.

Jason Benetti: “I was always fearful about two things. Not getting a job because of how I look…and getting a job because of how I look.”

Maybe it’s just me, but @jasonbenetti’s condition never occurs to me. Ever.

I’m too busy enjoying the best broadcaster I’ve ever heard.

The last time the Michigan Wolverines basketball team won a national championship was 1989…

Anything else happen that year, asking for a friend? 👀🤔

The Fab Five Altcast was a great call. What a throwback to my childhood…

Chainsmokers never put on a bad show but that was meh. Tough follow up act to SB halftime w Bad Bunny, which was all-time epic show

This could be the anchor of a week-long outdoor hockey "festival" in Kalamazoo. There are talks to involve many teams and leagues, including the K-Wings and the PWHL.

Now that Artemis II has launched we have 10 days to get everyone on Earth a Planet of the Apes costume so we can do something hilarious when the astronauts return 😁

Could’ve just played in Denver too. Home ice advantage for the 2 seed is fair I’m sure

BILL MURRAY IS A UCONN FAN? WHAT.

Had I known this, I wouldn’t have taken UCLA and I retract my previous tweet about having 7 B1G teams in the S16
