Good morning, Brew Daily Show. I'm Neil Freiman. And I'm Kyle Hagee. Today, Mark Zuckerberg takes a page from Elon Musk's book and rips up Meta's fact-checking system.
And Greenland is back in the news after Trump reaffirms his intention to purchase the island. The only issue? Greenland says it's not for sale. It's Wednesday, January 8th. Let's ride.
Like many people you know right now, Toby is out sick and hopefully crushing tea at home. Feel better, Toby, and everyone else who's laid up this winter. But we are delighted to have 2024's sixth man of the year, Kyle Hagee, back on board. Kyle, thank you for joining me.
Yeah, happy to be here. Happy New Year, Neil. What? Happy New Year. You can't say that.
You said it yourself.
It's January 8th. You cannot say Happy New Year. I think you can say Happy New Year all of January and at any time whenever it's the first time you're seeing someone, even if it's like October. Well, they'll look at you very funny. I think you keep the good year, the new cheer going. Okay.
But we know that the authority on such matters, Larry David, has said that the Statue of Limitations for wishing somebody a Happy New Year runs out three days after January 1st.
Yeah, I mean, I'm a big Seinfeld fan. I'm a big Curb fan, but Larry David has this one wrong. I'm going to have to talk to him after the show.
I think you're in the minority here. People are going to look at you weird. You can't say happy birthday on January 8th if it's not somebody's birthday. In a similar fashion, you can't say happy new year on January 8th. I want people to sound off in the YouTube comments and see who's right, me or you, and it's obviously me.
