I'm enjoying all the loose talk about the Air Quality Index from the same people who were overnight epidemiologists a few years back:
Did you hear the hazardous air score on a scale I didn't know existed five minutes ago is between 300-500? I have no frame of reference or knowledge on the substance of the matter but since I am easily frightened I will be completely credulous of the govt-media-science complex's pronouncements and will not only immediately comply but demagogue those who do not.
The madness of crowds and the craven busybodies who seek to lord over them. The human condition.
Had the honor of filling in for the first time solo today on my favorite radio show, Chicago's @MorningAnswer with @DanProft. Was an absolute blast, especially getting to interact with @Juhstink and @qjmac behind the scenes, Frank the history teacher from Arlington Heights, a bunch of Dan's regular callers, and some great guests including @VoteGrogan from IL GOP, @GlennonMarkE from @Wirepoints, and @ChiefVitiello from @CPB.
You can slog through the entire 4 hours on Chicago's Morning Answer's YouTube channel under "live" videos, but if you're just looking for a little taste (and a super interesting endeavor called "The Hall of Giants" @HallofGiants) I think this particular segment with @JohnMTillman, a former semi-regular on MY old radio show, went pretty well:

Filling in again soon but you should listen to @AM560TheAnswer every morning regardless🎙️
Nobody wants to admit to this or be honest about it but the actual price everyone paid for the utter stupidity in the covid era was that the monetary supply doubled, which means everything inflated by 100% and that is actually why you feel like you can’t afford life anymore.
Stay home stay safe had a price. Now you’re paying it and you will continue to pay it for as long as you live. Food for thought next time someone tells you it’s a good idea to press pause on the economy.
Chevrolet has outdone themselves once again with their new profoundly emotional, pro-family Christmas commercial.
Chills from beginning to end.
This is what it’s all about. Be ready to cry.
Suddenly, you're 27.
You make your coffee, rush to work, come home around 7, and you're too tired to do anything except eat, scroll on your phone, and pass out.
Then you wake up, and do it all again.
And when Friday comes, maybe you go out, or maybe you're just too tired. Then, out of nowhere, it hits you.
How did everything pass by so quickly?
You don't even feel 27.
You still feel like that 17 year old kid who thought they had all the time in the world.
But somehow, 10 years just disappeared. And you start missing the past. The feeling of being young, excited, and clueless.
But then you realize, one day, you'll miss this, too.
Being 25, being confused, being tired, but still trying.
So maybe the trick is to slow down a bit and actually live this chapter before it also becomes just another memory.
The point is no matter what age you are, you’ll miss these days. Life gets busy sometimes and it’s always a good time to stop and smell the roses.

After 15 1/2 years at WIND AM560 radio, due to staffing reductions, today was my last day on the air.
I am still processing this but I am happy to announce I have launched https://t.co/ugneE3zaKo where I will be hosting a weekly podcast, posting behind-the-scenes blogs, livestreaming.
It's never too early to put a golf club in their hands or immerse them in the Proft University curriculum.
