Tonight listened to show w Bronstein on cultural / political analogue between post Trump / post Nixon eras and was transported and inspired . Corroborated my enduring suspicion that art, specifically TV / film, moves the policy / humanity needle, maybe more than anything. As such, reinvigorated and refreshed creative goals. Gotta get back to that script. Thank you so much for your fine work. Critical Jess days wow.
Terrible as always
