This "bootleg" version includes the interview with former Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) - and the panel with journalist/author Nina Burleigh and The Lincoln Project co-founder Rick Wilson - it won't last, but this is all that's available, so far:

1. Enjoyed the mail segment. I can easily comply, but the incoming is by far the biggest problem.

Years ago I managed the mail function for a hospital. It was a constant battle trying to get people who were leaving to unsubscribe from periodicals before they left. As far as the 2020 election is concerned, marking anything "return to sender" will just make the problem worse.

The majority of my mail is "junk" and not my bills, cards and letters.
