From the historic campus of Hillsdale College in Hillsdale, Michigan, where the good,

the true, and the beautiful are taught, nurtured, and honored.

This is the Radio Free Hillsdale Hour, bringing the activity and education of the college to listeners

across the country.

Instead of a republic with great-souled statesmen, we now have a society of managers, which I think really took

hold at the beginning of the progressive era. This is your host, Scott Bertram. Welcome to the

Radio Free Hillsdale Hour, part of the Hillsdale College Podcast Network. That was John Birchka,

president and CEO of the Intercollegiate Studies Institute,

also the editor of the new book, Gateway to Statespanship, selections from Zedophon to Churchill.

We'll talk in depth with John a little later on in today's program about statesmanship and the new book.

First up on today's show, we're joined by John Jay Miller.

He is director of the Dow Journalism Program

at Hillsdale College, also author of multiple books, including reading around his most recent.

You'll see him in the Wall Street Journal and over at National Review as well. John,

thanks so much for joining us.
