Hey Adam! As another SF Bay Area resident, just wanted to say I love seeing you guys roam all over the bay! Is there any SF Bay Area location you'd like to visit for the show that you haven't yet?

What the hell is your work/life balance like? You seem so incredibly busy all the time I'm wondering when and how you escape it all.

I'm not sure if you've ever come across the book American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America, but I think reading that book is what helped me internalize the point you just made... The Constitution was a hedge against popular democracy uprisings.

Also helped me realize the debate about which values are historically American and which aren't isn't terribly useful. America was formed from ten very different types of cultures with lots of conflicting values. But they're all American, and have been since the beginning.
