    I laughed out loud when Kevin said, “Good to know,” after Mary explained the yellow-suit woman blowing a bubble. I’m pretty sure I’m headed to be exactly the same when I’m his age. Also, it was great to see that she wasn’t intimidated by him and was willing to joke with him later in the episode. I suspect some of the other younger Dispatchers are intimidated by Kevin.

    Dream line-up for a DLive: KDW, Esther Eaton, & Mary Trimble. So knowledgeable and ready to have fun with each other. KDW & Mary had chemistry.

    I’m trying to imagine Mike Pence justifying the use of the word “crackpot” to his wife.

    “I’m sorry mother, I know you don’t approve of potty language.”

    I’m sorry, but I couldn’t listen to the vocal fry of the young lady that was talking about Niger. She obviously knew her stuff, but 🙉. Perhaps some podcast training would be helpful before anyone goes on their first podcast.

    I try to watch "The Dispatch Live" every Tuesday and I enjoy it very much. The Dispatch has the brightest, most intelligent and articulate young people working to bring the subscribers the news that I have ever seen. I hope all of your young folks realize the value of what they are learning working with the great reporters and managers at The Dispatch. What a great group!

    Hunter and Archer are their names? Really? Feels like a who’s on first skit.

    Mr. Williamson, you had a lot of talent helping you tonight. Those Dispatch Media young whippersnappers are welcome on my lawn any time! I was much informed and much entertained, leaving me much impressed. Carry on, all y'all.
