the commentary magazine daily podcast today is Monday, January 9, 2023. I'm John Pudhord.

It's the editor of commentary magazine with me as always executive editor, a Greenwald

Hyde.

Hi John.

Media commentary columnist, an American Enterprise Institute fellow Christine Rosenhykristine.

Hi John.

And associate editor and author of the rise of the New Puritans, Noah Rothman. Hi, Noah.

Hi John.

We have a speaker of the house, happened late Friday early Saturday morning, after 15

ballots, Kevin McCarthy becomes speaker of the house and just throw this out to you guys.

Six months from now, will we remember that there was this fight or does news travel move so

fast that we will dimly remember that there was some issue at the beginning of Kevin McCarthy's

speakership and it will be supplanted by other issues with Kevin McCarthy's speakership.

Or will the other issues with Kevin McCarthy's speakership just keep being a permanent reminder

of what happened to him as he tried to establish himself a speaker?

Well, actually news moves so fast that this because this lasted several days, this actually

lasted longer than most news cycles.

So in that sense, I think it will, it will leave more of an indelible mark.

I'm with the third scenario where it's going to come, there's going to be the call back

reminder, like in a good sitcom where they do the call backs to the fight because they

have to figure out how to govern.
