Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
On this week’s first podcast, Abe and Noah and John discuss the crisis of competence suggested by the failure to hand a movie star the right envelope. Might seem silly, but it’s never happened before, and it’s happened at a time when nobody seems to be able to do anything properly. Give a listen.

Brilliant article, mentioned in this brilliant podcast:

Its definitely worth the read, this article feeds my confirmation bias, in that I have said for a long time – even during the Bush years – that all economic statistics coming out of government are wrong.
The Economy is not growing. The unemployment rate isnt low. Inflation is much higher than reported.
A fun drinking game is to take a drink every time John says the word “dovetails.”
I read it and agree.
Nick Eberstadt will be the guest on this week’s Ricochet Podcast (and JPod is sitting in for Rob).
