And so it was great. It was great catching up with him.
I will be returning to the Soho Forum, which is an amazing debate series to do another Oxford style debate. We're still locking down the date. Um, the opponent has been selected, but I'm not at liberty to announce that yet. Uh, although my understanding is that he's agreed to it too. Um, so it's going to be a debate on immigration. Um, and I think it'll be one that, that people will really enjoy.
What exciting news does Dave have about the Soho Forum?
So I'm looking forward to that. We should be able to announce all the details of it. I'm hoping within the next week or two, we'll, we'll have all of those details, but the Soho forum.org is the website. You should... Regardless of me debating there, you should go check them out. They're a monthly debate series in New York City and they get like. just really they get like great people a lot of really uh like great thinkers and very relevant um smart people have uh have debated there before and they've all their debates are online if you can check out their entire catalog and it's really fun uh to go to them live it's always a great time so i used to for years ago when i was less busy than i am now and had less children than i have now and um
lived in new york city there were several factors involved but i used to um i i've debated at the soho forum before and i used to regularly do stand up uh like at the the debate series before the debates and um i love all of the the people involved with it um and so anyways i'm excited to to go back so it's probably long overdue but we did um i i did firmly agree to return to the soho forum so uh very much looking forward to that and i think I think you guys are going to enjoy it. Hopefully you enjoy it. Okay. So let's get into the topic of today's show. And I've got an idea of some stuff that I want to talk about, and then I will do my best to get to some questions in the live chat as well, if possible.

All right, so Donald Trump is president of the United States of America. I don't know if you guys heard. Won a second term. Pretty impressive victory. He's... In a very interesting situation.
How is Donald Trump different in his second term?
And I think as we've already kind of, everybody knows at this point that Donald Trump 2.0 is quite a bit different than the first Donald Trump who came in. And part of this might be the people he has around him. Part of this might be that he has learned some lessons and has a little bit of wisdom from having been in there for four years already. Part of it might be that he had a near-death experience and maybe it's changed him in some ways. I don't exactly know. Maybe a little bit of all of those. But Donald Trump, in his first four years, really made enemies in Washington, D.C. with a lot of his rhetoric. And I think the fact that he was so uncontrollable, there's something inherent about Donald Trump that is uncontrollable.
