    Today's guest is comedy writer Rob Long, who served as a writer for and producer of the great sitcom Cheers for years, writes the weekly Martini Shot commentary, and cohosts the GLoP Culture podcast with Jonah Goldberg and John Podhoretz. He is a columnist for Commentary and a cofounder of Ricochet, the online community and podcast platform. At a live event in New York City, Reason's Nick Gillespie spoke with Long about whether Hollywood is out of ideas, what it's like being a libertarian-leaning conservative in a very progressive industry, and the role that psychedelics have played in his creative process.

    Drugs fry your brain, God gives you peace that doesn’t rely on circumstance or substance. The two are not the same.

    That entire episode was all just multi-culti universality propaganda disguised as an interview.

    That drugs is seemingly the alternative to god says more about the common denominator between the two than anything

    For example, I don't know what 'The Book of Names' is. I can't explain 'machine learning'. Al Gore rhythms are stupid. They think you want to watch something you just learned about, Again. I don't think so. I want new stuff. He outclasses me regularly, and I think he works too hard, but I like him. I like Rob Long. Anyone that can take Gutfeld's shit and keep shining is a friend of mine.

    Really? We weren't polarized during the Revolutionary War, during the Civil War, brother killing brother? We're not "polarized." We just have a two-party political system. Why so dramatic, Bat Man?

    Reason TV is not reasonable. Too much bizarre idiocy parading as rational thought.
