Tired of the toxicity of social media? Why not join Ricochet for just $5/month? Think of it as an online bar. Come in, have a drink, hang out, say whatever you want. But don’t badger, bully, or berate the other drinkers. That's our only rule.

This is the GLoP Culture Podcast description for episode #156, published on 11/30/20. We record Jonah Goldberg, Rob Long, and John Podhoretz on a software application that enables real time communication over the internet and discuss topics mostly drawn from pop culture: music, TV, movies, theater. Sometimes they stray into politics because they are first and foremost pundits. Occasionally, they make silly and sophomoric jokes. There may even be a couple in this very podcast. Thank you for listening.

    A simple explanation for Sydney Powell: she was taken advantage of by a highly plausible but totally fake tech whistleblower.

    If another lawyer had tried to scam her, he would probably have failed; but this was far outside her area of expertise.

    I think people are getting crazier because they lack religion.

    "When men choose not to believe in God, they do not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything." -- G.K. Chesterton.

    When taken in context, at least Sidney Powell didn't allege anything as wacky as the Biden Campaign colluding with the Russians to win the 2020 election ..... probably because no one would ever believe such a far fetched fantasy hoax in the first place.

    It sounds like they liked it when Dave Chappelle thinks out of the box, but they were never big fans of when Donald Trump thought out of the box. Sure, there might have been exceptions like the pro-Israel stuff.

    Even though most conservatives weren't big fans of Donald Trump in 2015, I think that President Trump even with constant attacks and investigations against him helped cut through a lot of the BS one-way Leftist thinking that surrounds Washington, DC.
