| I'll certainly take the cold of Fairbanks, Alaska over the heat of many places on Earth. | |
| Heat is not much you can do about heat. | |
| Obviously air conditioning is the primary answer, but that's it. | |
| You can bundle up for cold, but you can't unbundle for heat. | |
| As little as you wear, it's still hot. | |
| Anyway... | |
| Hi, everybody. | |
| Wonderful to be with you. | |
| Something seems to be happening at the Atlantic. | |
| I'm not all that optimistic that it will continue, but they're actually publishing some non-woke pieces, which is, and I don't know why, but here's an example. | |
| I was a heretic at the New York Times. | |
| It just came out. | |
| Let's see, yesterday. | |
| I was a heretic at the New York Times. | |
| I did what I was hired to do, and I paid for it. | |
| A man named Adam Rubenstein. | |
| On one of my first days at the New York Times, I went to an orientation with more than a dozen other new hires. | |
| We had to do an icebreaker, pick a star bust out of a jar, and then answer a question. | |
| My starburst was pink, I believe, and so... | |
| Starburst. | |
| Starburst, sorry. | |
| What did I say? | |
| Starburst. | |
| I've never had a starburst. | |
| You've never had a starburst? | |
| But you've had starbursts. | |
| It sounds delicious. | |
| Thank you. | |
| That was very sweet of you. | |
| I don't think I've had a starburst, or I wouldn't have made that mistake. | |
| There's no question. | |
| This is a new one for me. | |
| And so I had to answer the pink prompt. | |
| Which had me respond with my favorite sandwich. | |
| What is my favorite sandwich? | |
| Russ and Daughters Super Heapster came to mind, but I figured mentioning a $19 sandwich wasn't a great way to win new friends. | |
| So I blurted out the spicy chicken sandwich from Chick-fil-A and considered the ice broken. | |
| Again, this is on one of his first days at the New York Times. | |
| The HR representative... | |
| What is HR? Human Relations, right? | |
| Human Resources. | |
| It shows you how little I have contacts. | |
| Praise the Lord. | |
| Human Resources. | |
| Oh, God. | |
| Human Resources. | |
| It's painful. | |
| What I'm about to read to you... | |
| Gives you an idea of the way the New York Times is run. | |
| And again, this is printed in the Atlantic, which is quite surprising. | |
| The HR representative leading the orientation chided me. | |
| We don't do that here. | |
| They hate gay people. | |
| Wow. | |
| I'm going to talk to you about that. | |
| In a moment. |
