I’m on the Jay Kelly train after watching a gorgeous 35mm print at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social.
It ain’t playing in many theaters, but it is playing here in Chicago. It’s a wonderful picture made all the better by being seen in the theater.

National Review is doing so well that their writers are asking their readers for a few hundred bucks to see Kamala Harris.

Remember, JD’s political benefactor is Peter Thiel, a guy that meticulously plotted for years on how to take down Gawker.
A successful conspiracy detailed in Ryan Holiday’s book “Conspiracy.”
Maybe Stephen Miller should pick up a copy.

Stop falling for manufactured outrage ginned up the rightwing media. If something sounds stupid then assume that you're being played by people like Benny Johnson and other toxic-brained outrage rage grifters. They make their nut by clickbait and rage views.

I’m curious if Apple will bring back video to Apple Podcasts. Especially since people watch podcasts as much as they listen. Apple TV would be the perfect delivery system for them.

My view of the SOLD-OUT premiere of the film I directed, “I Agree With You,” at the gorgeous Davis Theater here in Chicago.
Thank you to everybody that came out for it.
*Taken during the Q&A, I didn’t like sitting up there for the whole screening.
