Tired of the toxicity of social media? Why not join Ricochet for just $5/month? Think of it as an online bar. Come in, have a drink, hang out, say whatever you want. But don’t badger, bully, or berate the other drinkers. That's our only rule.

The Greatest Wars

Subscribe to The Ricochet PodcastSubscribe

It's relatively rare to put out a Ricochet Podcast with only one guest, but when that guest is Victor Davis Hanson, well that's all you need. First, we do a deep dive on Victor's new must-read book The Second World Wars: How the First Global Conflict Was Fought and Won, a definitive history of WWII. Then, a bit of talk about current events, including North Korea. Go get your thinking cap out of storage -- you'll need it for this show.

Music from this week's episode: It's Been A Long Long Time - Bing Crosby with Les Paul
