OMG! Finally something really exciting is happening today! now I am dying to find out how this chat got organised, what organization arranged it, who had the initial idea. i am a bit nervous as to how Adam will hold up to Pete’s off the charts intelligence and erudition. What will they talk about? Politics? LGBTQ issues? Music? Btw, keep in mind Mr. Buttigieg has been named to Biden’s transition team! I'm not nervous about that at all. Mayor Pete would not have had the success he did, running either for Mayor or President, without being able to connect with, and converse with, people less intelligent and educated than he. And while Adam may be a college dropout, he's still an intelligent, articulate man. Whatever they discuss, I'm sure it won't be a deep dive into policy wonk territory. Adam will be fine. This is at a super bad time for me, so there's no way I'll be able to listen live. Also hoping it will be preserved for later listening/viewing.

I'm always surprised when some of Adam's fans are surprised at how many non fans consider Adam super smart and consider him an A list artist I agree Cleopatra about College dropouts ,they include some of the most brilliant ,wealthy folks,try Bill Gates for one.. The list is endless. Adam has made it in all ways including the most important way,loads of compassion /love for his fellow human beings and for the planet..I'm not surprised that he gets to speak to Pete.. I hope Pete can hold his own LOL

We, as fans, have been watching his interviews for 11 years and know how aware, how smart, he is, how caring about the human race, etc. I think we have a tendency to only see celebrities for their entertainment values, and sometimes forget that there's a real person behind the art...that's why it bugs the hell out of me when people say "just shut up and sing". There is so much more to an artist.

Be sure to read the Twitter thread. There are many funny photos. My favorite is the one where she is on land and Adam is in water swimming away.

I had this very thought after VP Biden started following Adam on IG.. Oh, I really hope he would be on someone's radar!

I hope Pete can hold his own LOL Love Mayor Pete. Agree. Adam is an intelligent and thoughtful man so no worries about him holding his own. I did not enjoy that conversation that Adam had with that guy from a GLAAD event. I think he was a comedian named Billy. But it was not because of Adam but that guy was just LOUD and treated Adam as some kind of victim and hardly let him talk. Didn't like his conversation with Mayor Pete either. The old not gay enough nonsense was brought up. Mayor Pete's husband addressed that issue in a recent interview about that very subject. He said being gay is NOT a performance, lol. Too many people seem to forget that. You are not any less gay because of the way you dress or carry yourself or how much makeup you wear of don't wear. I remember a drag queen upset about Mayor Pete running for president because he did not represent the LGBT community according to that person. Really? He was running to represent the entire country. But who exactly was the person running for president that better represented the LGBT community? Mayor Pete and Adam are two intelligent men and I'm sure they will find something meaningful or lighthearted to discuss. Adam will not be asked to make policy for the Biden administration. But I'm sure there are things Adam can bring to the table that even Mayor Pete is less versed on. They have lived different lives and have different experiences. But they are both impressive men in their own ways. Exciting!
