Distant Worlds

Subscribe to The Ricochet PodcastSubscribe
finding_pluto

This week, a discussion of the many wonders of the universe, from Donald Trump's candidacy, to AEI president Arthur Brook's vision for the conservative heart (buy his book, The Conservative Heart: How to Build a Fairer, Happier, and More Prosperous America), and of course, Pluto. On that topic, let's just say that Rob and James have a more romantic outlook than Peter.

Music from this week’s episode:

Space Cowboy by Steve Miller Band

The opening sequence for the Ricochet Podcast was composed and produced by James Lileks.

    I'm with Peter on this one. The celebration for the Pluto pictures seems plastic. I guess for those who have a shockingly inappropriate affection for science, this is enrapturing and glorious. As good as it gets, as it were.

    Me? Meh.
