Dear Reader,

Does it feel a little like Thanksgiving? Note the date – April 15^th. It’s Tax Day. Actually it’s not, because the federal government gave us a stay until May 15^th this year. Death and taxes may be certain but the dates those debts come due are not. Reprieves on either score are a reason for thanks. So that’s the kind of mood I’m.

On the occasion of the 100^th episode of Stay Tuned, back in 2019, I used this space to take stock of how far Cafe had come and to give thanks:

"I love my weekly conversations, both with Anne Milgram and also with the multitude of guests. I have been alternately moved, educated, and inspired over the scores of interviews I’ve had the privilege to conduct. Often in these discussions, I am learning along with you, discovering new information at the same time you are. I am simultaneously learning about the guest, the topic, and sometimes also about myself.
