Ditching the Seating Chart: After filing a more-spirited-than-average G-File, Jonah joins us for the weekend Ruminant. Today, he talks about how certain individuals associated with Trump seem determined to end their careers in ignominy, as well as discussing many other phenomena, such as America’s oversaturation of elites, the necessity of reading people with whom you disagree, the inadequacy of applying the left-right spectrum to American politics, what the possible consolidation of fringe-right news stations might look like, and how genuine post-Trump conservatism “is almost, in certain way, the same as [if it was] pre-Trump.” And, of course, the most exciting news in Jonah’s world right now? How a calmer political environment means that he can write about more interesting stuff.

The Best CNN Takedown Video I’ve Seen (Ep 1071): In this episode, I address what appears to be a coordinated media/liberal hit on the Trump team in an effort to scare them away from investigating massive Obama administration corruption. I also address the hysterical NBC face-plant on their climate change confessions. Finally, I address the socialism debate and a gun story that’s being mischaracterized by the media. My new book: Exonerated: The Failed Takedown of President Donald Trump by the Swamp, available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kindle and Audible. News Picks: Be very careful with the latest anti-Trump “scoop” about the foreign government “promise.” Another liberal-run city is being overrun by street crime.

Merci, Monsieur Douthat: New York Times columnist and resident French expert Ross Douthat returns once more to talk about his new book, The Decadent Society. He makes the case that decadence is more than just high-calorie desserts and rich Corinthian leather; the phenomenon is more about the space race, the birth dearth, our dumb Hollywood blockbusters, and our painful politics. Oh, and the coronavirus has turned him into a doomsday prepper. But Ross is a Bonhomme if you will, so we’re betting he survives his book tour unscathed. Show Notes: -Ross’ book, The Decadent Society -Daniel Kahneman on thinking fast and slow -The evils of the coronavirus distributors in public bathrooms -The process of recording an audiobook -Peter Thiel and his “almost lifelike” enunciation -Jacques Barzun’s From Dawn to Decadence -Suicide of the West, now out in paperback! -F.J.
