Here's what we don't discuss on this week's show: not a word about Sharpie markers, maps, or the tracking of certain weather events. Nope, not a word. Here's what we do talk about: The WSJ's Kim Strassel stops by to talk about Comey, Mueller, and an investigation that went far off the rails (P.S. feel free to pre-order her new book, which she will discuss in more detail on the show next month). Then, we debut a couple of new features: first, The Long Poll (we're still working on the name...). Look for it on the top right of the page, vote, and help Rob fulfill his dream of mainstream media mentions from his elite media buddies. Then, say hello to Lileks' Post of The Week, in which James himself selects a member written post for Ricochet Podcast fame and glory. Who wins this week's coveted mention? You'll have to tune in to find out!

Music from this week's episode: Hurricane by Lin Manuel-Miranda from Hamilton

    I voted for Cory Booker in the poll. But the reality is that all the Democrat candidates are Cory Booker.

    Elizabeth Warren is both the most likely Democratic POTUS candidate and the easiest for Trump to defeat.

    I voted for Biden because I think a Democrat is going to win and he is the best of a very, very bad bunch. It is so depressing.

    I did the graphic last night prior to recording (I do that a lot during football season.) I just didn't get the hat trick here, I'm wearing the Golden Sombrero.

    There is an argument that in environments with harsh winters, people became nicer and more cooperative with their neighbors because they will die without their help. Arguably, this is why Canadians are nicer and Scandinavian countries have incredibly low rates of corruption.
