I suppose I shouldn't go around admitting I speak untruths on the radio.

When I say something untrue on the air, I mean for it to be transparently untrue. I assume people know when I'm just saying something for effect. Or to be funny.

Just when did I get to the point when staying at a hotel wasn't fun?

You will be fierce. You will fearless. And you will make work you know in your heart is not as good as you want it to be.

Great stories happen to those who can tell them.

I remember when I first got married, there was a certain amount of internet traffic on the subject of, "Who is this beard who is allegedly married to Ira Glass? Obviously, he's gay."

The truth is, I just don't have that much time to see movies. So if I get two hours where I can actually see a film, I don't want to go backwards, I want to go forwards.
