It was a sign, Stu. Dad is with you. So are we. Glad you two found each other again. We'll see you soon, but you and your family always in our thoughts.

I'm sorry, but there a million other recovery stories to make into a movie instead of this discredited one. vanityfair.com/hollywood/2019… via @VanityFair

The seagulls along the boardwalk of Ocean City, N.J. have gotten particularly... bold. So what's a city to do?
Randy Levchuck, owner of Jilly's, a family-run business that manages storefronts on the boardwalk, joined us to talk about the plan.
Hint: it involves raptors! 🦅 pic.twitter.com/fEzMlfEIUH

One of the coolest perks while working as a production assistant for @NPRWeekend was dropping by the old @NPR music library to ask Robert Goldstein for his recommendation of music to score a segment. You could just name a mood, and Robert would know the exact CD you needed.

Ahead: @TomGoldmanNPR and sports! And BASSEY IKPI’S powerful new memoir, I’M TELLING THE TRUTH BUT I’M LYING (not sure why her name is turned into caps by spell-check here, but not displease by that, either).

So grateful for our convo w/ Professor Kaul. Some of my best times as a reporter (or person) have been in India, which he is right to say is famously, gloriously argumentative, as it makes a place for so many different voices and peoples. It’s magnificent. Don’t want to lose it.

Ahead: what India’s crackdown on Kashmir may say about Indian democracy; the return of a family who went to the US border; why the US didn’t built the kind of weapon Russia might be trying to build now; and a remembrance for Peter Fonda. Born to be wild!

For some reason, David, I knew that. But ‘Bama friends to to lure me into pronouncing Titusville, the way it is.

I’m so glad we re-ran that wonderful recollection of Woodstock by Robert Goldstein, our late and beloved music librarian. He was so wry and funny, the essence of cool—and kindness. I miss the way he’d drop by, just to make me laugh about something.

Ahead: how US and Israeli politics got intertwined this week; the pressures opening on the economy; and strangers show up in El Paso to help a stranger mourn.

I apologize to New Jerseyites for pronouncing their beloved state as Josiey. Don’t know where I ever heard that.

David, maybe she’s washed up under a pile of books in your studios! Get some take-out tekka maki and a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc and shake it around. That sometimes causes her to surface.

And thinking today of our friends @KLsecondcity Anne Libera, Nick, and Benchley. Victor Hugo said: grief leaves a crack in our hearts that lets in light.
