A Little Bit O’ Sowell

Subscribe to The Ricochet PodcastSubscribe

This week, we're lucky to be joined by the great Dr. Thomas Sowell, (buy his newly revised classic book Wealth, Poverty and Politics: An International Perspective). The good doctor schools us on economics, school choice, and a particularly vivid metaphor for the current election cycle. Spoiler alert: those who fear flying may want to have their thumb on the 30 second skip button for that part of the interview. Also, Hillary's coughing, Trump ♥ Putin, and it's a certain TV show's 50th anniversary that a certain podcast host has some opinions on.

Public service announcement: if you’re not a member of Ricochet and enjoy this podcast, be one of the 1,500 and join today.

Music from this week’s podcast:

A Little Bit O' Soul by The Music Explosion

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

    But Peter, Trump doesn't have the great opportunity to speak out about 9/11 because he's joined the blame America crowd insinuating Bush lied to get us in the Iraq War and even Bush was at fault for 9/11.
