Hey everyone, Matt Leib here doing another pre-roll announcement.

But this time, I'm not plugging anything.

No, this time I'm letting you guys all know something funny happen.

So we recorded this episode with Omar Bidar.

Great episode.

You're going to love it.

Here's the thing, about 45 minutes into it.

We thought Chomsky died. So we then did another about 25 minutes of us eulogizing Nome Chomsky.

Turns out, Nome Chomsky did not die uh he's still alive

he's still with us uh and you know good super

happy that he's still alive um

kind of inconvenient that he's still alive i feel like this is almost like a plot to get me to want Chomsky to be dead.

And I'm not going to...

I'm not falling for that trap.

No, I'm glad he's still alive, despite the fact that it makes about 25 minutes of this podcast

in which we eulogize him

feel kind of weird. So there's just a little warning up top. We're going to eulogize Chomsky

for like 25 minutes on this podcast towards the end. And here's the thing. That's good in a way

because if you think about it, if you think about it, it's like people are always saying, you know, when someone dies, man, I wish, you know, I wish I could have told them all this stuff, you know, about why I loved them and respected them while they were still alive. Well, we accidentally did that. So, you know, it's how often can you say

that, you know, you did a eulogy to someone who can be alive to see it? So anyways, it's a great

episode despite that part where we eulogize in a live guy.

And I think our points still stand about why he's so great.
