Victor Davis Hanson on The RJ Moeller Show
And the hits just keep on coming...
Thanks in large part to Rob Long and Adam Carolla's appearances on my podcast, I've been able to book some pretty amazing guests for August and September. Upcoming conversations include: Arthur Brooks, Walter E. Williams, and Andrew Breitbart. I'm laughing to myself as I even type those names.
But to the point: Professor Victor Davis Hanson was kind enough to share some of his profound knowledge, insight, and wisdom with me earlier this week and I wanted to, in turn, share it with you.
A professor of the classics for more than two decades in the California State University system, Dr. Hanson is a columnist at National Review, a senior fellow of military history at Stanford's Hoover Institution, the author of more than a dozen books,and, of course, a Ricochet contributor!
VDH, as he's affectionately known in conservative circles, graciously lent us a 1/2 hour of his time and we covered everything from his monthly lunches with Dr. Thomas Sowell to his Swedish ancestry to the current state of American higher education.
You're going to enjoy this interview. Trust me. You can stream our conversation live at my site, or download it on your iTunes.
Look forward to hearing your thoughts, Ricochet! Any feedback, positive or otherwise, is welcomed.

Re: Victor Davis Hanson on The RJ Moeller Show
Ha! Thanks. Most of my friends have no idea who any of these people are so the excitement dwindles quickly in the face of blank stares from them.

The episode with Rob is still saved on my desktop, but I haven't finished listening to it yet. Be assured I'll get to these eventually!
Congrats on your guest lineup. Keep 'em coming.

I can't get enough of VDH. He has spurred me to read Greek history and also info about the Pacific theater in WWII. Thank you!

Re: Victor Davis Hanson on The RJ Moeller Show
Victor is kind of like a modern day Cincinnatus. Except rather than being a general who fights wars and returns to his plowing, he is a teacher who after teaching returns home to prune his vines.

Re: Victor Davis Hanson on The RJ Moeller Show
Important question is...who will play VDH in the movie?

Re: Victor Davis Hanson on The RJ Moeller Show
I read everything by VDH that I can. Had I had him as a professor in my school days, I might have become educated.

VDH is pure, unadulterated WIN.
