My first read of this was not that it was a live show, but rather a desperate, targeted billboard from someone who wants Josh to move out to LA

I know @joshgondelman.bsky.social mostly from NPR's Wait Wait and @thebugle.bsky.social, both of which are news-heavy, so it's cool to see him knock out a very positive yet relentless funny hour that doesn't get into the minutia of the day's headlines. Worth a watch!

Maybe his misspoke, and meant "We have all the cads".

Swamp water in BC, Yukon, Newfoundland (at least in the 80's / 90's). Also, this thread is a great reminder that I need to go watch Josh's new special!

AWS Verified Permissions finally got a sensible pricing scheme, at $5 per million requests (down from $150/million!). This makes it a much more viable solution for permissions management.. Will need to explore this!
