The following is a conversation with Ben Shapiro, a conservative political commentator, host

of the Ben Shapiro show, co-founder of the Daily Wire, and author of several books, including

the authoritarian moment, the right side of history, and facts don't care about your feelings.

Whatever your political leanings, I humbly ask that you try to put those aside and listen

with an open mind, trying to give the most charitable interpretation of the words we say.

This is true in general for this podcast, whether the guest is Ben Shapiro or Alexandria

Ocasio-Cortez, Donald Trump or Barack Obama.

I will talk to everyone from every side, from the far left to the far right, from presidents

of prisoners, from artists to scientists, from the powerful to the powerless, because we

are all human, all capable of good and evil, all with fascinating stories and ideas to

explore.

I seek only to understand, and in so doing, hopefully, add a bit of love to the world.

Now, a quick few second mention of each sponsor.

Check them out in the description.

It's the best way to support this podcast, we've got ExpressVPN for privacy, policy genius,

Choose wisely, my friends.

And now onto the full ad reads, as always no ads in the middle.

I enjoy their stuff, maybe you will too.
