Good.
Well, I'm glad you weren't gonna talk about your mental health or anything like that, which 'cause that's also yesterday, 'cause we're gonna talk about the new culture war.
If the old culture war was all about anxiety and my mental health and LGBT rights and what toilet should I use, and am I trans and am I not all that's over,
Talk today about the new culture war, right?
The new culture war is less about parades and expressing yourself and talking about your anxieties and
gendering yourself or misgendering yourself.
Have you ever been misgendered, John?
So all that stuff, John.
Shin A Kriknaha, that is all over.
We are into a new culture war and we are gonna discuss it.
And the culture war, not the first, but the most significant volleys were fired last week by none other than the Economist magazine.
Economist magazine set up

B B A J H O T, I think was his name.
Uh maybe some of our British listeners will call him maybe he was Bajot with a silent T, but he was a very, very brilliant journalist.
And he set up the Economist, or he actually made the Economist the paper of record.
So the economists about a a week ago
had an extraordinary hit job.
Now this is again within the Academy, John, within the economics fraternity.
Now what I can tell you about economists, particularly academic economists, is they have very, very long memories.
