Working on a talk and rewatching "The Blues Brothers" ending—in which hundreds of solidiers, policemen, and firefighters (not to mention the neo-Nazis and Good Ole Boys from a previous sequence) swarm Chicago just to arrest two people. Hits a bit different this week... #NowWatching

TBH, I was hoping for more commentary on “Chiraq,” but this quote is good: “I always had love for Chicago. Great city, great people, a lot of history, herstory here.” ✌🏼

I regularly have people dressed up on my tour. These two may be the best yet. Her wig, the fringe, and Sloane’s earrings and watch! 💙

The East Wing was built in 1902 & rebuilt in 1942, long after asbestos was used as a fire retardant. So, I’m sure the White House took steps to prevent a known carcinogen from entering the air during the current willy-nilly demolition.

Kidding! These irresponsible assholes don’t care who they kill.
