Buckle up, there are tiny, crazy monkeys on tricycles riding around inside Jonah Goldberg’s brain, and the only way to let them out is an epic, mega Ruminant. You’re welcome, America.

Jonah begins with a defense of his free spirit and recent snarkiness before he launches into a critique of Curtis Yarvin’s recent antics in the New York Times. He covers FDR’s stint in Silicon Valley, neo-reactionary historical revisionism, and other lines of sophomoric nonsense. In the realm of politics: the hypocrisy of social conservatives, the dueling moral repugnancy of Joe Biden and Donald Trump’s pardons, and the problems with abandoning conservative principles to own the libs.

Show Notes:
