Push him. Malcolm Glavel here, I'm dropping into your feed today to bring you a preview of the new season of my podcast, Revision's History. This season, we're going boldly where no podcast has ever gone before, from the dark secret behind Thomas's English Muffins to the merits of Paw Patrol and not to mention, what's wrong with Joe Rogan.

Kennedy Junior, because I listened to Joe Rogan tell the story of how he met Kennedy, and I was riveted. That was the weirdest moment because we're both staring at each other.
