We know, we know -- we're 6 or 7 hours late with this. We had some technical difficulties during the recording of this show (we broke with tradition and training and left a bit of it in) which forced us to record this show in two sessions today, apologies for that. But that does not mean you, our faithful listeners are getting shortchanged. Far from it -- this is one of the longest shows we've ever done -- over 90 minutes of clever and civil conversation, featuring our guests, Andrew McCarthy, the WSJ's Kim Strassel, and Ricochet's own editor and senior citizen killer, Bethany Mandel, who joins to discuss her latest adventures on Twitter, which resulted in all of the right people getting mad at her.

We even crammed in a Lileks Post of The Week, and plenty of the banter that America's Most Beloved Podcast has become so famous for. So strap yourself in or take a long, long (as in Rob) walk with the dog, cut a large lawn, do a lot of dishes, or whatever your podcast listening activity of choice is and consume this one from start to finish.

Music from this week's show: Grandma's Hands by Bill Withers

    Once again, Peter, you reference lunch with Jay Bhattacharya and potential news... But we have to wait a week to get it!

    Well, if nothing else, I am enjoying the tone from you three. Perhaps you could have some conversations with your friends at NR.

    Maybe it would look something like this:

    Good talk. 3 great guests.

    The Russia Fraud has played out like I thought it might - I dont think its fair to call it a hoax - its a fraud, the conspirators, those former Obama officials who have knowingly made false statements in the media should be facing lawsuits and criminal investigations. Isnt this enough to demand Adam Schiff's resignation? How can he continue as chairman of the intelligence committee when so clearly used his office for partisan interests?

    Its time for Adam Schiff to resign in disgrace, and until he does the administration should refuse any request from his committee.

    I love how the people in the press use "the press" as a term for the other guys.

    I haven't listened to this yet, but I am disgusted by people that think if you are pro life, opening up is pro death. There are literally Republicans accusing Republicans of this. I'm also disgusted with the stupid attacks on Bethany. What idiots.
