Join Dr. Kesler and Spencer as they delve into the Winter 2020 CRB and its major themes over a glass of riesling. Dr. Kesler elaborates on his predictions about the effect of President Trump’s impeachment on the 2020 election cycle, and the two discuss what ails America with the help of Christopher Caldwell's new book, The Age of Entitlement.

For 20 years, the Claremont Review of Books has been the gold standard for conservative criticism and political analysis. Now the CRB comes to the podcast world with a new interview show hosted by Dr. Spencer Klavan, the magazine's assistant editor. As each new issue comes out, Spencer phones up authors whose essays have prompted deeper reflection and discussion. Over a drink and a copy of the latest CRB, he'll chat with the leading minds on the Right about what's going on in politics and literary culture. New interviews appear once a month, and--as a bonus--Spencer will sit down once per issue with his boss and friend Dr. Charles Kesler, editor of the CRB, to discuss the major themes that have arisen in the news cycle and their deeper implications for the state of the nation.
