@BaharOstadan @hereandnow Sounded like a perfect answer to me!

Went live on @hereandnow from Gracie Mansion and all I could think of when @odowdpeter asked about the city’s mood, was: my yellow cab driver was baffled and reporters are undercaffeineated wbur.org/hereandnow/202…

I'm coming out of Twitter retirement (X?) to say, thank you @crowmedicine & Ketch Secor for spending some time with us.

@tjgirschrpa @hereandnow It was so depressing. I’m sorry.

1/Today @hereandnow aired perhaps the most depressing segment in the history of radio; it's depressing because it's almost certainly true. The gist: All of our pets are miserable and everyone should stop owning them.

@SandyBauer123 Thanks. Here’s a story I did last year about lawns and landscaping. My takeaway is that it’s only a tiny fraction of the water use, though important to save what we can. wbur.org/hereandnow/202…

@odowdpeter interesting report. why aren't we talking about excessive landscape and golf course watering in this conversation?

We need news that makes us smile. Thanks for offering up some slow-mo joy.

@sarahtdubb So happy for you. Can't wait to start reading it.

@odowdpeter omg POD don't make me cry you KNOW that is the highest praise 😭🥺

SAY WHAT!!! It's been a journey, friends, and I'm so happy to share this news with you.

Cool to see it from that perspective. Always admired that church as I walked underneath the steeple.

@deepafern Thank you, Deepa!

This story made my month. We all need some Torty in our lives. Thank you @odowdpeter for bringing the loveliness we all need: wbur.org/hereandnow/202…

@LegallyLove Oh, that makes me laugh out loud. Glad you enjoyed it. Long live, Tortie.

OK, a few things: 1. Congrats! Tortie is a peach. 2. Ugh. How many times did I regret not asking if it was Tortie with an "i-e" or a "y"? 3. So many reasons to be in the news. 🤣

@azgfd @NPR Just put it on a loop!

@odowdpeter That is too funny! Yes, we should! We just heard an @NPR piece over the weekend (ironically, after videoing some tortoise adoptions) about the Norwegian slow tv movement - if you'll get us 7 more hours of Shelly, we can start the Slow Tort TV movement over here! 😆

Alaska has Fat Bear Week. Can Arizona and @azgfd please start Slow Tortoise Week? Here's one vote for 8 yr old Shelly! 🐢

@priskaneely I'm happy it landed well! :)

@odowdpeter the turtle sounds line made me chuckle 🙂🙂🐢🐢

When all the beauty around us is gone, at least we’ll still have these screens to sustain us. “For beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror.” nytimes.com/2023/03/25/opi…

@KBMM @hereandnow @deepafern I dunno, she's still working on her spelling. "Wotch Out!"

@odowdpeter @hereandnow @deepafern Looks like she’s editing your scripts! (Send her to Boston ASAP! We need someone with precisely her skill set!)

Today’s @hereandnow co-host is hard at work. @deepafern she’s got some good ideas for the politics roundtable. (Yes, my studio is basically in the bathroom.)

@kalyani_saxena @hereandnow Oh, not at all. Great view of the sink.

I'll never get enough of this video. Two powerful dudes remembering what it's like to be in middle school. (Also, why don't more people do this to members of Congress?) washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/…
