Get out there today. Anywhere you can. Add your body to the millions who truly care about a country rule by laws, not the whims of a con man. It's our best weapon, and it makes you feel good to be with people who care about democracy like you do.

I started a substack about my podcast "Don't Be Alone with Jay Kogen" which is about social media ruining life and pimping it here on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, & Bluesky. I'm starting to think I could be part of the problem. Join me won't you?

Hey kids! Welcome to Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday!! What experience do you want to have? Lots of people want things but I think experience is better than things. Do you want to travel? Master a skill? Win a fight? Have someone stare into your eyes & say they love you?

Haven't been to the Cannes Film Festival in many years, but, these days, it sounds like it's just one long standing ovation.

Hey kids! It's time forJay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday!  Today: I read that you can find inner peace by wishing other people peace. You think of a friend and say "I wish him/her safety & peace." Then think of an acquaintance and do the same. Then a stranger. Then an enemy.

You wanna be the new Pope? They say a Hail Mary. You make'em transubstantiate with Eucharist. They light a candle. You make'em do the Stations of the Cross. THAT'S the Chicago way.
