We're into the meat of the primary season now, so the time for talk is over -- it's time for action! Unless you produce a podcast -- then we need more talk. And this week, we bring you two of the best talkers in the biz: the great John O'Sullivan and Fox News analyst and columnist and editor for The Washington Times Monica Crowley.
We talk Ted, Trump, Bernie, Hillary, and yes, even some folk music. Break out your harmonicas and listen in. And we'll see you in New Hampshire this weekend.
Music from this week’s episode:
If I Had A Hammer by Trini Lopez.
The opening sequence for the Ricochet Podcast was composed and produced by James Lileks.

Monica Crowley is basically speaking in tongues with this Trump business. Trump won't put any blue states in play - if you look at his disapproval numbers he is by far the least liked figure on either side of the aisle. That's tough to do, because Hillary is despised.
Worse: this fantastical notion that Hillary somehow won't be the Democrat nominee... that's internet conspiracy mongering of the first order.
Anger and a sense of betrayal are hot this year - witness Bernie and Trump - but they aren't something on which you can build a national political movement. "I'm going to smash everybody who is a roadblock to my infantile rage!" Fantastic.
