Dream Star listeners.

This is Jonah Goldberg, host of the Remnant Podcast.

Brought to you by Dispatch Media and the Dispatch.com.

Today's episode is sponsored by our friends at Zip Recruiter, more about them in a little bit.

Excitingly, we are recording this in the new lavish, dare I say, extravagant studios of the Dispatch,

not at the American Enterprise Institute, which I still love dearly.

But we're testing driving this thing, so it's very exciting.

Because there's a high chance of electrocution, we didn't want to bring in some big name guest or something.

Instead, we figured we would try this with Declan Garvey.

I always have this panic when I'm saying someone's last name or first name on the podcast.

You know, it's, you've seen it in writing.

No, I've talked about you with other people, mostly disparagingly.

But it's, I always have this momentary moment of panic, even though I know names.

I just like when I had Sarah Flores on here, it's not Sarah Flores.

It's Sarah, is there a girl?

This is what I'm talking about. It's panic.

Declan is one of our staff writers.

He's one of the main forces behind the morning Dispatch.

And welcome to your first episode of The Remnant.

Thank you. Great to be here.

So this is the first one recorded in the studio here.

This is the first one recorded with actual podcast equipment, rather than the little portable recorder.
