Here's something to obsess about:

I commute 1 1/4 hrs each way daily and stream msnbc in my car, and obviously do not look at the phone but the audio plays over my speakers.

Ari Melber the other day was responding to a Dem candidate for President who didn’t make it obviously, and when he stated all the reasons why he was supporting Biden, Melber paused and said.... Huh. And paused again. It was, from a listening viewpoint, very dismissive and denigrating to the candidates. As if to say: so that’s it, huh? You are going to go with that, huh? Really, huh?

I am actually composing a spoof of Melber’s show complete with dialogue and plenty of obtuse (and acute)music references. I plan to post it sometime this weekend. I have to admit, I found it pretty funny as did my friend whom I showed it to.

He was dismissive of Biden throughout the process.
