03/29/2024: MAN DOWN! HUMAN BRYAN SAYS SEE YOU ON MONDAY
Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Good morning, folks. Typhoid Mary, here — formerly known as Bryan Dean Wright, host of The Wright Report. Thanks for all of the kind messages of good health yesterday, plus the feedback on AI Bryan. What's clear is that he received a mixed review. He was a bit breathy, as it turns out. Which is curious, because the raw audio did not have that pronounced heavy breathing. But despite the best efforts of my sound folks, it was a problem for some listeners who wrote in — it was a notable distraction from the content. And I'm hearing you. And so, for now, AI Bryan will go back on the shelf. Instead, I'll simply have to ask for your patience and forgiveness as I am rather human — one that gets cold and flu bugs. And so we shall continue our good work together — human to human — on Monday, god willing. For folks who celebrate, I wish you a very Happy Easter.
