Even if it doesn't normally win popularity contests, we like to keep things candid (but fun!) on the Ricochet podcast. And even if it cost US attorney general Bill Barr some popularity points, we still want to hang out with him! He's just published his memoir One Damn Thing After Another, and the gang do what they can to get at all the damn things. Barr proves still-adept at handling himself when things are coming in from all directions.
Rob also talks Ukraine and reassess the way history repeats itself; Peter applauds Elon Musk's latest undertaking; and James wonders about the "groomer" conversation. Plus, shoutouts to Saint Augustine and Jenna Stocker–just cuz they're awesome Ricochet members!

Have not listened to the podcast yet, but am halfway through the book. Good read so far, he is pretty fair from my POV.

Peter's comment needed more detail: Are the college students biking and skateboarding, with or without masks?

So, Rob says he never thought of the left losing at least some influence on SCOTUS because new "Justice" Brown doesn't have the intellectual capability to convince someone of her position.
As I recall, Richard Epstein mentioned that in one of his recent posts on Ricochet, and I seem to remember finding that in at least one other post too, by a "normal" member.
Rob doesn't spend enough time on his co-founded site.

Bill Barr’s apparent excuse for not going after Antifa/BLM rioting etc was that they weren’t collecting information because they would have been accused of racism.
That’s something he should have worked to correct, or just ignored; not something to hide behind.
And since most of the BLM rioters were white anyway, where's the racism in that?
