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.
UPDATE: Some listeners have had issues with the sound on the original posted recording. We’ve adjusted the levels and re-uploaded. If you’ve already downloaded the show and are having difficulty hearing, all you need to do is delete it and re-download for the adjusted recording. (Or try here.) Enjoy!
With Peter up in the air, we needed a guest to lift our grounding in the Metaverse. Enter Walter Kirn: novelist, memoirist, Substacker and Tweeter extraordinaire and now a resident of Montana. Walter gives his take on never-ending mask madness, flying the coastal coop, and his upcoming book: There’s a Bear in the House! The man hold no punches at a time when a red-pill a day keeps the kooky bores away.
Rob and James marvel over the number 30 trillion; they weigh in on CNN’s latest severed head; plus Whoopi Goldberg and humorlessness generally.
And Rob really wants you join Ricochet–the best place for free speech on the net!
Music from this week’s podcast: Montana by Frank Zappa

One more reason I’m glad I never got into RSS stuff.
Well, it’s not like I have to hack the feed and manually move files around when it’s working correctly. Normally it’s all automatic, which is kinda the point.
Yes, but then when something goes wrong it’s something different. And as you say, many people wouldn’t even bother, because of that. Downloading it from the page, or even from iTunes directly which seems to get the updates, is a routine and even if I have to re-do one from time to time, the re-do process is exactly the same. :-)
Folks, we are looking into this. We did upload a new, louder version of the file, but as someone pointed out above, we also switched hosting services at about the same time, so it’s possible something got lost during the transition. We’ll get it addressed today.
Sorry for the inconvenience. We will have all of this sorted out before we put out this week’s show (which will be a good one — more about that later this week).
Alrighty! Got the updated version here.
