Day 1 was a barn burner. I personally think Day 2 was fine, but not to the same level. Weāll see where day 3 takes us!

Playing catch up, I was out running errands. I heard most of Jeffries, some of Clinton and Oprah and all of Walz.
What do you think were the highlights? I didnāt see Clinton, but he sounded rough!
Walz was the highlight I thought. He really is a great speaker. There wasnāt one wasted word in the speech, and the way his kids were so damn happy for him really highlighted the key difference between the two sides.
Jeffries was also pretty great.
Hard to imagine not tearing up watching Gus Walz. When he stood up crying and said, āThatās my dad!ā it hit me right in my dad brain.
Yes, Iām not even a dad, but it hit me too.
Iām not sure what made me feel older, how rough he sounded, or him dropping a self-deprecating McDonaldās joke. Talk about a throwback.
