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.
It’s the last GLoP of the year — oh wait, it’s the last GLoP of the decade. Better make this one memorable. What can we do? I know, let’s help Jonah write a column. YES.
So that’s what we do: Rob and John suggest column topics and along the way, cover the which droids they’d like to be, the trouble with Clint Eastwood’s new movie Richard Jewell, why the Democratic party is eating itself, a bit of Rank Punditry®, Rob’s newest obsession: ASMR videos (no, we’ve never heard of it either), and various other rabbit holes and detours.
Thanks to everyone for listening this year and for the always bracing conversation on Ricochet that follows each show. We appreciate it.

If you listen carefully to this podcast you can get a sense of it. I don’t want to be insensitive, but JPod and Jonah do not consider themselves white, they consider themselves Jewish in regards to this issue. The second revelation is when Jonah points out when talking about race issues he feels its important to always make some concession to the left that there may be white supremacy or racism and the Left has some legitimate good faith concern on their part. This sounds crazy to an average American because that is simply not part of current reality outside a super rare and public few nutters. Of course the Left has been trying to weaponize white guilt for years. So, they have no conception of what these problems are like for average whites who send their kids to public schools and have them come home hating themselves and convinced whites destroyed the world, and also know in every application they will be discriminated against in favor of others.
He may not have been “black-listed” (how interesting that expression continues to exist these days) just for it, but John Derbyshire’s “The Talk For Non-Blacks” was no doubt high on his list of “thought crimes.” It’s very interesting.
