There's an intangibility to it. There's a taste aspect, the human relationship aspect, the psychology. By the way, a lot of it is psychological analysis. Like, who are these people? How do they react under pressure? How do you keep them from falling apart? How do you, you know, how do you keep them going crazy? How do you keep from going crazy yourself?

And so I was part of that whole world and then found myself drifting away from it in the 1990s as the neocon world changed, became more populist. And since then, I've been, you know, I feel like I'm the last Mohican of the Moynihan tradition among my peers. I guess me and Leon Wieseltier. Well, maybe Bill's kind of returned back to you.

Prodigal son is back, right? With a big car and tail fins. Yeah, yeah. So, you know, I got my PhD. I'm now a professor at Columbia. I've been at Chicago, been at NYU.

And I write about what's going on in the right, mainly with a broken heart. My books, I have been, I've mainly been, I guess you might say, studying the dark side of the street. My interests have been in the counter-enlightenment, in the radical right, and I have a couple of Thank you. Thank you.
