A thread-in-progress about @DrOz. I was once a guest on his show & heard from more people about that appearance (& reruns) than anything else I’ve done on TV. Tells you how big his reach is.

Was clear to me he was egotistical, self-centered & hazy on facts.

Perfect for GOP! 1/ First clue Oz was not a regular physician or host was in the first para of what should have been a standard guest release form.

Imagine a doctor-show form that has this: "...I am solely responsible for any harm to my health..."

🧵 about @LarryElder and the Newsom recall.

Unlike most non-Californians weighing in on the California recall election, I’ve actually listened to and followed Elder for decades. 1/ 🤫 First, a confession. Something I never planned to write about.

📻 Most of my closest friends won’t know this, but I listen to a lot of conservative talk radio, including when he was alive, Rush Limbaugh. 2/

Starting a long-term thread about losing your job, unemployment and what to do next. Each week, I’ll try to post tips, resources, ideas. Would love to hear your thoughts if you’ve dealt w/ this, as well as your strategies on coping. Thanks for helping me help others.🙏🏾#sreetips They say adversity builds character. Having lost two high-profile jobs in 12 months, my character is now awesome.😊

Because I’ve been open about the body blow that’s unexpected job loss (and have allegedly bounced back), lots of folks regularly reach out to me.
