Today is the two year anniversary of the first episode of @inlieuoffunshow, an event that makes me absurdly proud of this little project that @Klonick and I undertook at the outset of the pandemic. It makes very happy that the show has helped keep a lot of people happy and sane
during a difficult time. Through it, I have made new friends—particularly @scottjshapiro and @GenevieveDFR, who became cohosts, but also lovely people from around the world who just showed up to be part of the self-named #GreekChorus.
The anniversary also makes me think about @lawfareblog, a prior experiment done impulsively with friends and colleagues, @BobbyChesney and @jacklgoldsmith—an experiment that kind of bit me in the ass and took over my life. The other day, I noticed that there were literally 20
people in Lawfare's Monday editorial meeting. I could not be prouder of the team we have built or the people whom I have had the privilege to work with on this project over the years. It's an honor and a pleasure.
Most of the best things that happen to us professionally are accidents. To everyone who is trying to build a career out there, let accidents happen. Let experiments go the way they want to go.
Good things happen.
Good things happen.
And please do join us for Second Anniversary Cheese Night this evening on @inlieuoffunshow. We will be posting the link later today and I'll append it to this thread when we do.
