This week, we call of a couple of our most popular podcasters to help us parse the week's events: Michael Graham, the Boston based host of or daily podcast Michael in the Morning sits in for Peter Robinson, while Michael Stopa from the Harvard Lunch Club podcast stops by to talk about how the President is doing so far (and yes, he and Rob Long get into another one of their epic rap battles). Then, the WSJ's Jason Riley joins to discuss kneeling in the NFL and his new book False Black Power?. Finally, a librarian in Massachusetts doesn't like Dr. Suess. Well, that's not really true, and a hearty "so long, Hef!" Music from this week's show: Puerto Rico by Vaya Con Dios

This week, Lileks is on vacation so we asked our good friend Larry Kudlow to sit in his chair as we welcome the Manhattan Institute's and Wall Street Journal columnist Jason Riley to the show to discuss the events of the last week. Yes, we also cover the presumptive nominee, and Larry makes a valiant effort to convince one of the hosts to support his candidate. Was Larry successful? Tune in to find out. Music from this week's podcast: What's Goin' On by Marvin Gaye The brand new opening sequence for the Ricochet Podcast was composed and produced by James Lileks. Yes, you should absolutely subscribe to this podcast. It helps! Gotta catch 'em all, EJHill.
