Subscribe to The Ricochet PodcastSubscribe

We're down a homme this week (details about that in the show), but we're still full to the brim on compelling and clever conversation with our guest National Review editor Rich Lowry, who stops by to talk about his new book, The Case for Nationalism: How It Made Us Powerful, United, and Free. Is America an idea or a nation? Or both? It's a wide ranging and detailed conversation (as planned, which is why we only have one guest this week) and raises a lot of interesting points about the pluses and minuses of the movement at the forefront of the political debate not only in America, but in many other countries as well. Also, hats off to @drbastiat for winning this week's much coveted Lileks Post of The Week award for his The Paradoxical Popularity of Progressive Professionals post. Finally, because we have to, we check in on impeachment and wind up the show revealing our favorite Thanksgiving dishes. Mmmmm, sweet potato with marshmallows.

We're off next week. Happy Thanksgiving to all of our listeners, especially the ones who are members, and we'll see you in December!

    No show next week? You guys probably could have taped a show with a pair of book authors or something...

    Oh well. Happy Thanksgiving.

    I think that Rich Lowry's criticism of Trump's Baltimore tweets are unfair.

    “The Democrats always play the Race Card, when in fact they have done so little for our Nation’s great African American people. ... Elijah Cummings has failed badly!”

    As ugly as his tweets are, as unseemly as Mr. Trump is, he has a point doesn't he?

    Since we don't have a Long Poll, perhaps we could use this: What dishes do you have to have for Thanksgiving?

    There is a coffeecake from my Mom's side of the family that is great.
