Burning Down the House

Subscribe to The Ricochet PodcastSubscribe

Isn't this a way to start out a New Year?

We're breaking all sorts of precedents, starting off with a long thoughtful discussion on the state of American football. We talk about the Damar Hamlin incident from the Monday Night game in Cincinnati and then give a hail and farewell to "The Pirate," Coach Mike Leach of Mississippi State and then local man has a nervous breakdown over the recent play of the Minnesota Vikings.

Then it's off to the fun and games of Washington, DC where the vote to elect the Speaker of the House in the 118th Congress has even the usually unflappable Byron York grasping for answers.
