“He’s doing okay… he and I hang out pretty frequently. He’s got some mobility issues and unfortunately some aphasia.”
“…But I’m over at his place every week doing readings about the Seven Years War and having fairly high level conversations with him about like the spread of global capitalism in the 18th century. Just not really in a way that is mic ready right now. We’ll see… I mean we’re working on it. We’re making a little progress every week. I see a path, I just have no idea what the timetable for any of this could be, and I don’t think he does either, so hopefully updates when we have it…”
He also said they’re putting out a book based on the Spanish Civil War episode scripts edited into a nice looking book. Limited run, with proceeds going to support Matt, his recovery, and his family. Preorder available sometime next month.

I’m happy to hear he’s in presidential shape.
But I’m over at his place every week doing readings about the Seven Years War and having fairly high level conversations with him about like the spread of global capitalism in the 18th century.
It’s super cute that these two just hang out and dork out about history stuff.
He’s got some mobility issues and unfortunately some aphasia.
That’s what always scares me about a stroke, losing the ability to move and talk. Damn. But I’m glad he’s doing better!
may His neurons prune the bad pathways and find new ones
may His dendrites stretch ever further in pursuit of the true paths
i feel like the doc probably told him no more acid
All power to our large adult son, may he one day emerge larger than ever
How could I forget
I hope he’s doing better with all the therapies he’s going through. I’ve seen too many good people go through that process. I’m always thankful to him for bringing together my great love of history and politics. In a world of narrow- minded specialists, he’s one of the few people with the reach to tell the story of human history as a grand narrative. He showed us that the only way we can ever start thinking about the future again is by starting with a narrative of the past.
Hope our large son gets well.
Seems from what I heard from matt’s partner amber and now chris, this whole ordeal seems really nightmarish.
Anyway all that matters is recovery and relief. Hope large son matt gets all that.

really miss Matt takes rn so im just doing a re-listen of cushvlog
I get knocked down, but I get up again
The demiurge is never gonna keep me down
He’s unfit to serve the pod. He really needs to step down. I suggest VP Virgil to replace him.
when you remember you left the plunger in the toilet
I love him and I wish him and his family the best.
On the one hand, I’m glad to hear he is recovering. Other hand, mobility issues and aphasia makes me sad.
Hopefully we will one day be blessed by him, but I totally understand waiting (esp w/ aphasia).
We will always have hell on earth.
And Hell of Presidents!
I was just wondering about him the other day. I really miss him during the election season (RIP Beltway Garage) but I’m glad he’s continuing to recover and is still himself despite all the challenges.
