A lot of jokes from King Charles tonight.
“You recently commented, Mr. President, that if it were not for the United States, European countries would be speaking German. Dare I say that if it wasn't for us, you'd be speaking French”
Martin Scorsese turned down many cameos including The Sopranos because he “couldn’t connect” with it.
He accepted Larry David’s offer because “Curb Your Enthusiasm” is one of his favorite TV show ever.
“I started watching, and I realised you could do something on television.”
In response to a personal attack by President Donald Trump the night before, Pope Leo told journalists on the papal plane to Algeria:
“I have no fear of the Trump administration or speaking out loudly of the message of the Gospel, which is what I believe I am here to do, what the Church is here to do. We are not politicians. We don’t deal with foreign policy with the same perspective he might understand it, but I do believe in the message of the Gospel, as a peacemaker.”

I finally got to watch the first episode of Vince Gilligan’s long-awaited new series “Pluribus!”
Oh my god—this is incredible. Absolutely incredible. It pulls you in right from the opening scene. Vince really is a genius!
It’s still too early to tell, but… could this be Vince Gilligan’s take on Invasion of the Body Snatchers?
Jack Finney’s Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1955) was a meta reflection of Cold War–era fears—of invasion and totalitarianism.
Could Pluribus be a satire of America today—of social media and division?
Can’t wait to see more.
