Summary: Richard gets to create his decentralized internet, catching the attention of old friends and foes.


“
It felt like a breakup with HBO. The final phone call was them going like, "Well, I don't think this is the end of Erlich. I still want to see him on television," and I was like, "I know but I think this is for the best." HBO has never treated me as an employee, always as a collaborator. They were understanding and said, "Look, if you really think that this is the move and that you'll be able to produce an hour special for us sooner than you would have if you were on the show, and if you feel right now under the current administration that you need to do stand-up because you need to be talking to the American public, then we support that." So they were very, very cool about it, and that final conversation was super friendly and sad. It was heartbreaking on my end.
