But I actually think there's a lot of value speaking to them, not because you're trying to win the host over or the reporter over, but because you are sharing your message and your beliefs with an entirely new audience that may not have heard the arguments that you are making. It's not about the big public figures that you're talking to. You're not going to win them over. That's clear.

But you are sharing a message with half the country that might not have otherwise heard that message. So it's look, do you want to persuade people or not? And if you're not interested in persuading people, that's fine. But I would venture to say that if you are in the public making political arguments, the reason why you're doing it is to persuade people.

What's the point of just preaching to the choir and just talking to people in your echo chamber? It's more effective to talk to people you disagree with.

Well, you know, it's it's interesting because I do think both sides of the political aisle do this to some extent. You know, it's it's an effort to kind of make the candidate appear more popular than they really are. And it has a bandwagon effect, right, where some voters who might might not be as politically engaged will see this mess.

manufactured popularity, but they won't know it's manufactured. And they'll think, well, a lot of people like this guy or this gal. So I'm going to cast my ballot for that individual. But I think things have changed in our political environment where people are a lot more engaged because there's a lot of the line. You know, they have a stake in the game, whether it's the economy or something else.

Well, I agree with you about forgotten Americans who have either been held hostage by authoritarian governments abroad. It's terrible. So when I see that photo of Mark Fogel kissing the ground, kissing America, essentially, it's an emotional moment.
