@beherenow365 Why don’t you guys have a podcast?

[Michael Weber @mwbr]

As I near 40, not being invited to a Super Bowl party makes me feel like I’ve done something right.

[Michael Weber @mwbr]

I find the exchange at the end of this clip from @JoshuaCitarella to be quite disturbing. Can anybody help me articulate why?

[Michael Weber @mwbr]

Fast forward two years:

“Jews for Mamdani” was a Jewish conspiracy to bankrupt the city!

Using some direct quotes here from @ComicDaveSmith. My favorite is that October 7th was an “indictment”

Here’s something soothing for all the Jews panicking out there:

The @joerogan episode with Woody Harrelson has a million more views right now than the Dave Smith/Douglas Murray Gaza debate.

More people care about Woody Harrelson than Israel.

[Michael Weber @mwbr]

As Jews, can we please talk about how good @ComicDaveSmith’s hair is? #gaza

Reacting to @ComicDaveSmith recent podcast appearances, remember folks, responding to bad ideas with insults only make you look weaker

[Michael Weber @mwbr]

@amiKozak actually let me do a bunch of talking this episode and didn’t edit out my good points afterwards! Check it out!

[Ami's House @AmisHousePod]

I think @ComicDaveSmith is wrong on Zionism and Israel, but so are his critics.

Here's the full convo about his latest @joerogan appearance. My take is not what you expect. @amiKozak @mwbr

This short film lived in my imagination for years before I got the once in a lifetime chance to shoot it.

It takes place on the eve of WWII, when an antiques dealer goes to Europe to purchase priceless family heirlooms from desperate refugees looking for cash, and finds something… unexpected.

“There is something scary about a child who cant be found. But there is something much more frightening…”

This scene lived in my imagination for years before I got the once in a lifetime opportunity to actually shoot it. @RadzynStories

Watch 30-seconds of this speech and tell me the Dems are going to come up with a better candidate than @JDVance in the next 4-years.

Trump’s plan to relocate Gazans is WRONG.

Unless, y’know, he could really do it. Could he really do it??

“MSG: A Survival Guide for the 200s”

If you’ve ever found yourself stuck behind the Chase Bridge at a @phish show at MSG, this story is for you:

As you know, our tickets tonight are in the 200s. Before we head to the venue, I’d like to just go over a couple of key things to ensure this is a pleasant concertgoing experience for everybody in our party.

A little bit of background. In the last several years, an effort has been undertaken to attract a respectable crowd at Phish and migrate the population of the traditional “phan” to a more contained, isolated, environment, away from the cameras and the taxpaying audience. This undertaking has largely been a success. That’s why today, you’ll find a lot of clean-shaven, collared-shirt-and-vest-wearing men around you when Phish takes the stage. Lots of guys standing still holding beers in coozies and correctly and consistently identifying the song that’s being played. You’ll find women wearing tastefully tie dyed shawls, having gotten bejeweled before the show by a professional. That’s good for Madison Square Garden. That’s good for business. That’s where you want to find yourself. 

The aforementioned phans– aka the people you used to see at Phish shows– have been gradually squeezed into the section above these more savory concertgoers: The 200-section. This is where you’ll find balding men with dreads. Lots of flip flops. People with small heads and very, very, large flat brim hats. Tattooed women who didn’t bring a jacket. If someone has one of those rings that’s basically a huge hole in their ear lobe? The 200s is where you’re going to find them and their friends. 

If for whatever reason you were unable to procure a ticket in the safe zone, you may very well find yourself in the 200s. This is by no means a death sentence, but it does mean you need to be aware of your surroundings if you want to make it home safely. So, just a few quick reminders before the show begins:

•A lot of the people in the 200s have nowhere to go after the show. 
•A lot of these people lost their right to vote when they were convicted of a federal crime, so they are not invested in your future. 
•Regardless of how you yourself ended up in the 200s, you are now no longer recognizable to the people who you used to call your friends.
•Embrace it. Nobody is coming to save you.
•Avoid the bathroom if you can. They are lawless environments. By the first set of the run’s second show, a local gang will have typically established dominance and will be providing security for you. You can trust them.
•Make sure you have cash on you for emergencies. Credit cards are not accepted in the 200s. The venue does not even trust these dirtbags with cupholders, let alone credit. 
•What do we say if someone asks to borrow your phone? “Sir, I’m aware that you might have forgotten your charger on the train from Philadelphia. No, you may not borrow my phone for just a minute.” Be firm, make strong eye contact, and walk away. 
•If you find yourself in a situation that requires help from a professional? Do not waste time finding an MSG employee. Garden personnel cannot help you in the 200s. Despite the authority they endeavor to project, they’re as vulnerable as you are. In the 200s, you’re going to want to go straight to the New York Fire Department. Skip the Police. They lack the hardware necessary for the kind of help you’ll need.

Now, let’s talk about 2001. 
•The parasites in the 200s feed on it. It nurtures them.
•Know your exits. 
•If you are seated above Row 16? In the part of the 200s where the The Chase Bridge blocks your sight and sound? I want you to grab onto something hard. Make a fist. Leave the venue. Do not wait for your friends. 
•If you can’t make it outside before the first crescendo? Close your eyes. It’s too late for you. You are one of them now. Soak in the blissful jams, because you’ll need them. It’ll be at least a year until the next show and the months ahead will be long and cold.

Houston/OKC was one of the GREATEST #NBACup games of all time.

Who can I speak to about getting the title of my episode changed? The reason I ask, primarily, is because I do not believe “How PORN Destroyed this MATHEMATICIAN’S entire LIFE” is an accurate description of our conversation
