Forgive me for posting Tuesday what I should have posted Monday -- my wife was out of town, you see, and our beloved nanny is on vacation, and my three kids each needed to go to three different places across town. So in between work, etc., I was the family driver.
I'm not complaining -- we are blessed beyond measure! -- and it's totally worth doing, but I think we need to do more to acknowledge the hard work that dads and moms do every day just to keep their families functioning. It's tough, rewarding, and, at times, difficult.
I think if we celebrated the daily achievement of simply getting thru all of the things we have to do, we would see ordinary life as it truly is meant to be seen -- as a wonderfully heroic effort, even in the humblest lives. The everyday is everything, and I am grateful for it.
Today's episode is devoted to the second anniversary of the October 7 terror attacks. It was produced before the announcement of a ceasefire deal, yet remains current & relevant.
Please listen, and #bringthemhome.

This week's portion is a beautiful poem, containing the Covenant between God and the people of Israel. But given the breaking news that Hamas may actually have agreed to release all of the Israeli hostages, I will devote my remarks to that.
One hopes it is true; if so, it makes this week's additional reading, from II Samuel 22, even more relevant: David's song of praise to the Lord for delivering him from the hand of his enemies.
"18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy,
from my foes, who were too strong for me.
19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster,
but the Lord was my support."
So much to focus on this week -- and much breaking news. A peace deal in the Middle East, perhaps? Eric Adams dropping out of the mayor's race? And a looming shutdown as Democrats push their demands beyond absurdity.
Special guests:
- Bradley Jaye - Breitbart News congressional correspondent, on the shutdown
- John Carney - Breitbart News financial editor, on the upcoming jobs report
- Jerome Hudson - Breitbart News entertainment editor, on the Kimmel fallout
- Frances Martel - Breitbart News foreign editor, on the UN and Gaza talks
