This is the take away that I wish more people would understand.

Linus is (as far as we can tell from the outside) a terrible boss, should not be in charge, and has said/done egregious things.

Some of his staff on the other hand (appear) to be fantastic talent and good people. I don't want ill to come to them.

Carpool critics (I'll never call it by the new name) will always be one of my favorite things ever.

I hope they either exorcize LMG of its demons and rebrand or move on to greener pastures. Either way I wish them well.
