Lately, I've been noticing how much I have been in conversation. I've always been someone who likes to talk, especially to dear friends. But conversations lately have really reminded me of the value of just hearing somebody think out loud as opposed to something that's deeply practiced and quofed and planned. There's this really cool energy between two people when they're both discovering something at the same time

And of course, without the human voice, I wouldn't be able to hear Nancy Wilson sing Me to Sleep, and I wouldn't be able to hear Danny Hathaway Yikes and the richness of tone in his voice. Stevie Wonder. I'm just listing some of my favorite voices. Deborah Pardes. But thanks for your homage to the human voice. It's really got me thinking about some of my favorite voices. Thanks

Deborah, here's one more impersonation of my little grandma telling my little brother Kevin to put the boxing gloves on because they're going to settle this argument once and for all. This is my my 70 year old grandmother talking to my little brother Kevin. Kevin, put the boxing gloves on. Put the gloves on

Thank you so much for putting this swell out there. It's a lot deeper than what it is on the surface, and I can't agree with you more, and I have a story to share. But so before that, I do want to say that I think we have. What I've seen is we've gotten used to quick comebacks gifts, these misspelled tweets that people really try to figure out and don't know that there's such thing as sarcasm
In terms of your voice. Firstly, I can say that it is velvet to my ears. It is always calming, soothing, and it is quite beautiful. And someone needs to say that I'll right. And then in terms of swell and this idea of spoken word as someone who's approaching the tech Boomer, dysfunction or whatever else you want to call it, this is such a relief to able to communicate in ways that we've all been able to communicate since time and Memorial

And occasionally mine will still come out, though I definitely learned to hide it and mask it because of what it meant growing up and the ramifications and the assumptions people make about you. If you have a strong Pittsburgh accent, but I love it. I love Pittsburghy. I miss hearing my dad say, oh, wait, Yan's kids doing and things like we got to worship and, oh, we got to read up the house. It's a beautiful language and accent
You know, I'm a huge Bob Dylan fan, and, you know, say what you will about his voice, love him, hate him, whatever doesn't matter to me. But I don't know why I started with that, but what I wanted to to talk about was when language was new and it was being come up with it was symbols, a word. When you look at a tree and say, there's a tree, it's not actually a tree
