This week, a little tech talk to kick off the podcast. Then, the weird strategy of the house leadership on raising the debt ceiling, Rob makes a u-turn on Cruz, Peter proposes a peace treaty, Then, the Instapundit himself, Glenn Reynolds, pulls over to the side of the road to discuss his new book on the future of education (The New School: How the Information Age Will Save American Education From Itself). Later, are we witnesses to the end of American Exceptionalism? Finally, a Ricochet Podcast tribute to Sid Caesar and Shirley Temple.
