Good news and bad news, everyone: Our New York City event sold out over the weekend! That's good news for us and for everyone who bought their tickets early, and bad news for everyone else who wanted to go. But we talked to the venue and were able to release some more tickets to make sure we got as many members of the Tangle community in the door as possible. So, more good news: There are a couple dozen more seats available. They're going to go fast, soget your tickets now!
While we're on the topic, I'm thrilled to announce two of our guests for the event. We'll be joined on stage by Katrinavanden Heuvel, the longtime editorial director at the progressive magazine TheNation, and JoshHammer, the biting conservative columnist who is now a senior editor-at-large at Newsweek.
