ATW Livestream, DNC Finale: Walz, Clinton Recap, Harris Finale 9 pm ET/8 pm CT
Walter Kirn and I test the limits of masochism as we recap the Democratic National Convention, live-hurling through the "President of Joy's" final sendoff
We just couldn’t do last night, it hurt too much. But Walter Kirn and I will be on tonight for a final DNC sendoff, beginning a recap and livestream a little later than other podcasts. We kick off at 9 pm ET/8 pm CT, going back over the sublime, intellectually diverse speeches of the last few days, from Amy “Midwestern Common Sense” Klobuchar to Bill “Kamala Harris, the President of Joy” Clinton to Westworld repair room escapee Oprah “Common Sense Over Nonsense” Winfrey. We’ll try to hang in through the final speech by the presumptive candidate, Kamala Harris, but we make no promises about our heads not exploding Scanners-style as we tune in during the runup.

You deserve some kind of a medal. I cannot even bear to watch the snippets you share without my head exploding. How much do you have to drink to get ready?
The whole DNC is just a giant high school prom that only the kids who think they are “cool” get to attend. Kamala and Walz are elected prom queen and king, and everyone is full of joy and good vibes.
There was a time when, as my presumptive civic duty, I would watch the key speeches from both conventions, even when I already knew for whom I'd vote. Just can't even think of doing that anymore. Can't watch snippets. Can't read quotes. That's how bad they've gotten. We might as well have AI do it - at least it might be interesting.
