    Earlier this week I had the immense pleasure of interviewing one of my favorite bands ever, Fishbone, at The Grammy Museum in Los Angeles. It was a great evening. I interviewed them.

And there was all of that (likely) insider trading that happened right out in the open?! Secretary of Defense and Future Fox News host Pete Hegseth is addicted to texting government secrets to people who shouldn’t have government secrets. So for the sake of sanity, today you’re getting a silly video from me.
