We Don’t Do Math Here | Ruminant

Dear listener, I must ask you to take a seat. I fear you are not prepared for what I’m going to tell you. Jonah Goldberg appears on the show today… with… written notes. Granted, they contain about five words. But they exist! On paper! Marvel of marvels! And so it is with this boy-scout level of preparedness that Jonah embarks on his weekend ruminations, covering Jon Ossoff, Natalie Harp, savvy political baiting, Jason Arday, Jews and liberalism, race, social justice, group performance, Jacobin tariff rhetoric, data centers, and the Dupont Circle farmers market.
