Announcement: Podcast Discussion between Michael Anton and Charles Haywood

Something different--not a complete Worthy House offering, but a direction to one related to The Worthy House. I am pleased to announce that The Claremont Institute, in the form of The American Mind, a publication of the Institute, has published a Special Edition of its regular podcast. This Special Edition features, and consists of nothing but, a discussion between Michael Anton, author of the crucial books "The Stakes" and "After the Flight 93 Election," and myself. We talk about Straussianism, Augustus, our past, and our future.  You can find the podcast here:   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Go8VDI2_s8&t=2067s   The American Mind: https://americanmind.org/audio/the-american-mind-podcast-special-edition-america-in-decay-hope-or-despair/ We strongly encourage, in these days of censorship and deplatforming, all readers to bookmark our main site (https://www.theworthyhouse.com).
