It’s Russia Hour

It's a big scary world out there–or so we're told. But how do we sort what to worry about and what not to? We say: bring on some guys who know their stuff! That's why Dr. Jay Bhattacharya is back. He wants to keep us calm, despite the return of variant hysteria; he and the hosts talk Omicron and a world limping its way back to normal. Then, Seth Cropsey, senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, joins the gang to take us through the vanishing power vacuum left by the US, Putin's goals in Ukraine, and the future of American naval power. Abandon all hope? Or can we bounce back? Listen to find out! Plus we've got James' thoughts on the Golden State; Rob talks EU, sugar cubes and the creeping pace of bad policy and the disasters they create; Peter's wife is none too pleased to see the Pelosi's latest purchase; and the gang is happy to see that Democrats are losing ground with the non-crazies.
