Summary

On today’s Remnant, Jonah’s brain is uniquely scrambled. He’s still disoriented after slipping into a near comatose state last week, and his nose hasn’t quite readjusted to the feeling of fresh air. Rather than forcing a guest to deal with his mental malaise, he brings Guy, his immigrant manservant, back onto the program to field another round of carefully cultivated listener questions. The resulting conversation—which touches on the 2024 election, the purpose of American conservatism, the shame of closeted Kiss fans, and Jonah’s deranged fondness for a blowtorch—is as peculiarly nerdish as you’d expect Show Notes: - The Remnant, hosted by Chris Stirewalt, with David Drucker - Jonah: “Does the GOP Deserve Tim Scott?” - Albert Jay Nock’s Memoirs of a Superfluous Man - David Pietrusza’s 1920: The Year of the Six Presidents - Jonah: “Goldberg’s Conservative Canon” - Keeping the Tablets: Modern American Conservative Thought - Death of a Beatle Learn more about your ad choices.

I'm meeting your listeners. This is Jonah Goldberg, host of the Remnant Podcast, brought

1:31.9

to you by the dispatch and dispatch media. I am back. I am not firing on all cylinders

1:40.9

or at 100%, but I am vastly improved. For those who didn't know, I had a deviated septum

1:50.1

surgery to use a clinical term, beat the crap out of me. Just left me a hot mess. I

2:02.2

basically spent about six days. I felt like there was a medium-sized monkey fist, clenched

2:11.8

right between my two eyes, behind my nose, my sinuses. And every now and then, the monkey

2:18.9

felt like counting to five with his fingers. It was excruciatingly uncomfortable and unpleasant.

2:27.2

And yesterday I got the splints out of my nose so I could breathe again. And for a little

2:34.6

while, it felt so good to be able to actually breathe and to have the pressure relieved
