Thank you.

If you're ready to level up our relationship, because I am, it's time to hit that follow button on your podcast app.

You'll be rewarded with our latest episodes as soon as they're out, and of course, the warm comfort of knowing we will be there for each other when things start to sag.

Thank you, Bill.

Thank you.

Thank you, everybody.

You're very kind.

We do have a great show for you today.

Later on, we're going to be talking to Michael Threats.

He is the new host of the rebooted Reading Rainbow.

This will be a treat for those of you who spent your childhood in libraries instead of playing sports or getting invited to fun parties, which, let me check our latest audience data.

That is, it's all of you.

So you'll enjoy this.

But first we want to see if your reading has prepared you to answer some questions about the week's news.
