nd him? I'm going to have to. No, you want more of him. I was listening to him on Tucker, and I was really taken by how well he explains complicated things. He really is a treasure. Now whether you agree with him is a separate question. I'm going to give you a little disagreement later. But his ability to explain a complicated thing is unparalleled. I mean, he's just the best. And his bravery of bucking the system, A+. And in his dedication to following the data as he sees it — again, you could disagree, but his dedication to following the data where it went, perfect. Perfect. You know, you could say people like him made some early mistakes. Maybe you think they still made some mistakes. That's fair. But you want more of him, not less. It's like free speech. We want more free speech even though people say crazy stuff. You need more Bret. More Bret. Even if he gets one wrong, you need more of it.

All right. Now I'm going to disagree with him. I primed you just right. So here's something that Bret said. He said he was initially in favor of the mask because it seemed like not much to ask. But he's deleting it. And now he says a riddle for you. Given the size of the holes in a window screen, why would anyone believe they could prevent transmission of malaria? Do you think your screen door would prevent transmission of malaria? To which I say, I don't know too much about malaria, but doesn't it travel on an insect? Can a mosquito get through a screen door? I thought the screen door was specifically sized to prevent the mosquito. You're saying they can get through a screen door, a mosquito? I guess it depends on the mosquito. I'm thinking of the big mosquitoes with the big beaks that take a pint of blood from you. I know they can't get through anyway.

Have I ever told you that the least scientific thing you could do is use an analogy? Well, but it's in the service of making a point, so that's the right way to do it. If you use an analogy in the service of explaining how a point works, that is a correct use. So he's using it correctly. I mock people for using analogies to win arguments. But if you're just doing it to explain the argument, you know, that the size of this is bigger than the size of that, that's actually the correct way to use an analogy. And that's rare. So again, Bret for the win because he did the rarest thing. He used an analogy correctly. How often do you see that? It's actually kind of rare to actually know how
