Very much would like to have Thomas, Adams & Reibe

With all the depressing news in the world, it’s great to have our own version of Walter Cronkite for the Huskies world! Thanks, MZ for another excellent episode. And yes, the lack of screaming and yelling is such a big part of the appeal of this show.
