Greensteer listeners, this is another episode of the Remnant Podcast.

I'm Jonah Goldberg, your cruise director.

This week's episode, I technically don't know if this week's episode is brought to you by conversations with Bill Crystal.

There are advertisers this week, but we're doing two podcasts this week, and I did not bother to check with the salespeople to find out whether or not I should be reading the ad in both episodes.

But since I'm a fan of conversations with Crystal, I'm happy to say that this podcast too is brought to you by conversations with Crystal.

We'll hear more about that in a little while.

Today, I'm taking another Blereye break from Booktour stuff to basically do another rank-punditory episode and buy somewhat popular demand.

We have Tim Carney back with us. Hi, Tim.

Hi, Jonah.

You are the commentary editor of the Washington Examiner, my colleague here at the American Enterprise Institute.

You're the patriarch of an increasingly large separatist compound in suburban Maryland.

That's right.

And so I have a bone to pick with you.

But you've got to keep going. I'm assistant T-Bull Coach.

I am acting baseball commissioner at St. Andrew Apostle Parish, and I am assistant boys baseball coach at St. Andrew Apostle Parish.

Basically, you are a living cog of civil society.

As long as that involves a Catholic church in baseball, yes.

That's fun. That was count. It's a rich ecosystem.

So the reason why I was throwing a little shade at you about by somewhat popular demand is that the last time you were on, there was a lot of chatter about how it was a great podcast.

But at some point, someone asked you whether or not or someone brought up whether or not you were, you discussed Bigfoot, Arotica.

And you said, wait, what's that now?

And so it was very clear that you had not listened to at least some of our episodes because Bigfoot, Arotica is a recurring theme on this podcast.
