Drive-Time Ruminant
from The Remnant with Jonah Goldberg · host The Dispatch
In the words of a great album, “How are we feeling out there? How’s your drive-time commute? I need a saga - what’s the saga?” This weekend’s Remnant is less Ruminant-y than usual, as the Greek chorus that has silently watched Jonah during these recordings for the last few episodes finally speaks up. That group includes Ryan, the newest addition to The Dispatch; Guy, noted Mark Steyn impersonator; and Nick, Jonah’s long-suffering research assistant. In this imitation of a kinda-crude FM radio show, the four talk about the latest Gaetzian nonsense, Biden’s joint congressional address, and Chez Goldberg’s interesting history with Newt Gingrich—in addition to Jonah telling some jokes which will get his three companions canceled before they even exit their 20s. Show Notes: The Daily Beast reports on Gaetz’ grossness The Remnant with Asawin Suebsaeng and Lachlan Markay #JonahforConan Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene on tour Congressional Caligula Jonah: “Watergaetz” David on yelling in a crowded theatre John Mulaney vs. the Third Amendment Sven Johnson mocks the Third Amendment too Ramesh Ponnuru debates Anand Giridharadas Learn more about your ad choices.
