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.
We got a convoy and are headed North this week! First we meet the man who plans to restore sanity to James’s home state, Kendall Qualls. He hopes to combat the juvenile delinquents trapped in grown-up bodies who’ve been running the Gopher State into the ground. Then we head beyond the border to chat with Ezra Levant of Rebel News, who gives us the 411 on the Canadian truckers who’ve got Justin Trudeau shaking in his bossy boots.
The hosts also talk science™ and wonder why she keeps changing her mind; Stacy Abrams revealing photo-op; and, of course, some Super Bowl picks!
Music from this week’s podcast: Truckin’ by Dwight Yoakam

Ezra Levant? Sign me the truck up!
This is my number one favorite YouTube video of all time. lol
And then she bangs the gavel and says “20 to life!”
Curse you @blueyeti you know this was the proper song to close on!
“He’s dead, by the way.”
My favorite part of Ezra’s video is his interlocutor resigned from her job shortly thereafter. And some Americans who’d never heard of him said he should run for US President.
I think Rob – as usual – misunderstands a lot of this. Antifa etc blocks OTHER PEOPLE from working. If the truckers themselves are refusing to move car parts or whatever between Canada and the US, how would Rob propose they be FORCED to do so, against their will? Because Supply Chain, or whatever.
If Rob really wants to sound off against Supply Chain problems, maybe he should chain himself to the entrance of the California legislature or the like, where they’ve decided that truckers who own their truck, and/or if a truck is just a little “too old” or something, are not allowed to help deal with all those ships waiting to unload. Truckers aren’t responsible for that problem, either.
Yes. Rob is missing the point.
Wonderful.
They also have a former military intelligence officer running logistics for them.
I actually thought Rob asked some interesting and pointed questions.
Nope, stick with the original.

It’s possible to ask some interesting questions while still misunderstanding some of the larger issues. He started out by comparing Antifa with the truckers.
I had the same experience as Peter. I flew to Dallas to look at property to buy and ripped the stinking mask off my face as soon as I got outside the airport. Travelled hundreds of miles looking at houses and land, went to stores and restaurants, and never once put on a mask until I got back inside the airport. In several restaurants some of the staff wore a mask, but most didn’t. None of the customers wore a mask. The realtor I worked with didn’t wear a mask, neither did the people working on the beautiful new construction I signed a contract on.
I can’t wait to move to Texas. Virginia is full of fools.
I recently flew to Seattle for a day. Makes Virginia look like Texas.
So glad I left Oregon ~30 years ago, and Arizona 18 months ago.
Agreed. I think he’s an underrated interviewer. He gives guests the challenge that they don’t usually get from non-combatants.
I think it’s an essential service. Regardless of whether he agrees or not, Rob helps them make their case. Both of the guests exceeded my expectations today, and they got a lot of help (in that regard) from the resident RINO.
I thought Rob got a little tedious with the Trump stuff a couple months ago but other than that I really like him.
I tried, I really did. But I really don’t like either versions of that “song.” But if I could have brought myself to do it, I would have gone with the CW McCall version.
But seriously, it’s terrible.
@blueyeti
According to my iPod and mac’s iTunes , this particular show is on the Superfeed but not on the flagship feed.
I am told that paxlovid is very hard to scale. I am very angry that the media has not found out why they didn’t go warp speed in the middle of July at least.
I just donated to Rebel News. Everybody donate.
Antifa came out last night in Minneapolis.
I celebrate the man’s entire catalog.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the whole video. This is truly a work of art. Very educational. Everybody’s kids should watch this when they are ready. This is very serious homeschooling material.
@ejhill – VDH should be dressed up as Max Von Sydow along with the Ricochet troika.
Favorite Ezra quote:
“I’m the most annoying person I know”
Right. Did not update on iTunes. Can someone tap the necessary button? Or will this simply be ignored?
