Huge congratulations to my friends Tommy and Sophie Farrell.

After more than a year of delays, cancelations, venue changes and stress, they finally tied the knot. It was honestly one of the best weddings that my wife Jodi and I have been to in years.

We loved Producer Kristen's and Jessica's wedding before the lockdowns, both outstanding events for sure.

Last night was a throwback to "pre-lockdown," "pre-covid fear" living. Hundreds of people dancing, drinking, eating; just celebrating life and a marriage of two young people who clearly belong together.

It was so nice to have a chance to talk at length with Sophie's mom and dad, Tommy's parents and aunts and of course, Tommy's Nonna.

Normal, fun, exciting and a necessary reminder of what America needs to bring back immediately.

Although I didn't record a podcast, I did tweet some pics. And of course, like everything I do, it brought out the haters. But even the trolls or the weather could dampen the excitement of one of the best weddings we've every attended.
