Holy Moses

Another in a seemingly endless series of very busy weeks but we've got you covered. First up: The Oracle himself, Governor Haley Barbour. He's got a perspective of 50 years in politics, so we thought we have him on to see what he thinks of the last few months. Prepared to get schooled. Then, as freedom of speech on digital platforms --like the one you're reading right now-- is now one of the most important issues facing society, we thought we have on someone who is on the front lines of the debate. Meet Venture Capitalist and fierce 1st Amendment advocate David Sacks (and be sure to watch the extended cut David's segment in our new members only feature, Rob Long's Six Dumb Questions which can be found here). Also, impeachment, Pelosi, and yes, Rob Long predicts the coming re-unification of the Republican Party. You heard it here first. Music from this week's show: Man Out of Time by Elvis Costello

Hosted by James Lileks, Peter Robinson, and Rob Long

Before the Deluge

First, let it be known that we recorded this podcast before The Memo® was released. We'll dissect that (assuming there's anything left to dissect) on next week's show. Instead, we've got the great Bari Weiss from the New York Times to discuss the shaming of Nikki Haley, Aziz Ansari, and other cultural touchstones. Then, our old friend and consummate insider Haley Barbour talks immigration, memo speculation, and what exactly happened at the airport early this week. Music from this week's podcast: Ballad of Paladin, Have Gun Will Travel by Johnny Western
