@StephanieWei I had the same opportunity. Had to pass due to the price. Plus airfare, hotel, etc.

I’ve been graced with the exclusive honor of being allowed to buy $2,000 worth of Ryder Cup tickets!! Do I do it??

@JPosnanski @ParnassusBooks1 Wednesday the 18th? Or Thursday the 19th?

Comment 🍒 and I will send you the uncensored see-thru pic 🤭

Great race strategy by the UAE Emirates team today! #stage14 #letourdefrance

@MeghanMcCain Biden looks too frail.

I love politics and for some reason I’m just really uncomfortable watching this. #DebateNight

@mikefreemanNFL Thank God it wasn’t Tiger.

I will host a major in my backyard before Valhalla ever does again

@kristianiaclark @PeabodyAwards Well deserved! Hope you win!

WOAH we've been nominated for a Peabody!!! Our last season of The Uncertain Hour (RIP)- the podcast I made & hosted for 6 yrs - was just recognized by @PeabodyAwards!!! So grateful for our amazing team & all the folks who shared their stories to shed light on welfare-to-work.

Great job by NC State tonight, and through all the ACC Tournament! A truly fun game to watch, unless you’re a Tar Heel fan.

@StephanieWei Why no, I’ve been able to get a red cover U.S. passport before. Strange but true.

Overhead at the passport agency: “Is blue the only color book you have?” 😂

Congratulations are in order for @RobertDowneyJr for being one of just nine former SNL cast members to be nominated for an Academy Award, and for being the very first to take home an Oscar.

Again, you people that back into parking spaces. #YouPeople

@Heather_at_ACTS @pptsapper You mean like this Face of Battle?

@kristianiaclark This is my all-time favorite podcast! I listened faithfully since its beginning. I learned A TON! Very sad to hear of its demise. Best of luck with whatever you do next!

Gutted to announce that after 6 amazing seasons Marketplace/APM is ending production of The Uncertain Hour. So proud of what we made. 🙏🙏for the ❤ you gave us, the stories & expertise you shared. Looking for new opps. Would love to find TUH a new home. Dreaming big. Meantime...

@kylascan @public Ah, the weaponization of finance! It’s not just for corporate raiders and LBOs any longer.

ah, the housing crisis full video (co-produced with @public)

@jayparsons @Ritholtz We’re number one!

Here are the 15 U.S. markets that added apartment renters at the fastest rate in 2023. While the previous list look at net demand leaders (favoring large markets), this one adjusts for size. Huntsville = category of its own. Booming. Nice job mix, including high-paying aerospace engineering/tech. Sioux Falls SD, Lakeland FL, and Port St. Lucie FL are a distant 2nd, 3rd and 4th, all with very real but different demand drivers. Some big markets crack the list including Nashville, Salt Lake City, Charlotte, Raleigh/Durham, Austin and Jacksonville. Everyone talks about supply in these spots but don't forget what is luring all that supply: A lot of demand. Short-term supply issues, yes, but even moderating demand still equals a lot of demand. The "don't call us just Zoom towns" group of beach and mountain markets including Colorado Springs CO, Pensacola FL, Myrtle Beach SC, Wilmington NC, and Savannah GA. And if this list expanded to 17, we could add in Boise ID and Sarasota FL. Those are the types of tertiary markets separating themselves from more seasonal vacation markets. All were growing prior to COVID, accelerated in 2020-21, but will keep growing. Smaller markets always bring a bit higher risk of boom/bust, and all of these have a lot of supply in the short term, but longer term should remain people magnets.

@DefectorMedia @drewmagary A very experienced has-been starter in the NFL? He’d be invaluable as a backup, just look at Joe Flacco.

@cutenchaoticATK hi

do you want a sweet treat in your dm? comment “hi” if you do 😋🍩🍬

While I am thankful that YouTube TV now gives me the opportunity to watch four football games at once on a split screen, they ought to give me the option to select which four games to watch, rather than the canned options. #firstworldproblems

@kylascan Going down stairs on a mountain bike, your mantra simply is: “Speed is my friend”

So I went mountain biking for the first time today and I learned how to snowboard over the winter and the advice I got for both activities was to “stop thinking so much” and its funny how u cant brain ur way through some stuff its just pure instinct and overriding fear

@StevenWestby @virha__ I thought you were cross-posting from Bluebird to Twitter, or X, or whatever it’s called these days. If that were true, then you would have been on Bluebird, and perhaps could send along an invite.
