Instead of a celebrity. Investigative. You know, this is a problem you have had, you know, like you've had many celebrities get mad at you because you ask actual questions. So, yeah, I was sitting with Paris Hilton. I didn't know much about her, honestly, because I missed so much culture stuff. living overseas for months and months and months at a time.

There are whole swaths of American culture that I just never got because I was not in the country. And I remember asking my wife, who, aside from being a brilliant doctor, is also very read in on celebrity culture. I was like, what should I ask her? And she was like, well, ask her about the fact that the Kardashians seem to be kind of, you know, kicking her ass. And is she still relevant?

And I did. I asked her that. I asked her, you know, do you think your time has passed? And she got up and walked away in the middle of the interview. So yeah, like all that could happen. I could do that thing with Paris Hilton, but then also spend a lot of time covering faith and spirituality or covering war zones. And it was just a total mix.

Not when I don't have a teleprompter in front of me. Around the same time, the aforementioned Peter Jennings, gave me this very strange assignment, which was that he wanted me to start covering faith and spirituality for ABC News, which I did not want to do because I had no interest in this shit at all. And as I have sometimes joked, I did have a bar mitzvah, but only for money.

Okay, so here's the order of operations. In my late 30s, several years into therapy. I'm now sober. I'm still doing the job as a network news anchor and loving it and doing all the things that you referenced, a mixture of still covering war zones and also meeting all sorts of celebrities and having strange experiences with them and then also covering faith and spirituality.

And because I'm covering faith and spirituality, I end up reading a book by a self-help guru that one of my producers recommended to me because she thought this guy would be a good story. So the book was by this guy Eckhart Tolle, himself beloved by many celebrities like Paris Hilton, for example, who was seen carrying a copy of his book when she went into jail to do time for DUI.

His book sales have, I think, stayed strong. I coded him as very weird. I think now, given all of my experience in the meditation realm, I think I would view him differently.
