Summary

In the words of Gene Wilder, “There’s no earthly way of knowing … in which direction we are going.” That’s the mood on the latest Remnant, which sees Jonah flying solo in a second - and more streamlined - attempt at an audio G-File. Some of this is an expansion on the topics in this week's G-File, but most of it consists of unique, free-flowing observations from Jonah’s mind. Huzzah for keeping sanity during quarantine! Let us know what you think of this format on the @JonahRemnant Twitter, through Jonah at @JonahDispatch, or by email at [email protected] - we want to know!

0:00.0	Greetings to your listeners.
0:26.4	This is Jonah Goldberg of the Remnant Podcast brought to you by the Dispatch and Dispatch
0:30.4	Media. I'm trying a little bit of an experiment today because I got another
0:37.9	bit time on my hands and I either do this or I start dressing up my dogs and cats
0:43.8	like various Star Trek characters and pretending we're on an away mission. Some of
0:49.7	you may recall I tried to do what we were calling an audio G-File a few like
0:55.5	last summer and it really didn't work. It didn't work for a bunch of different
0:58.8	reasons. One of them was just simply like the voice I use in the G-File doesn't

1:11.3	close to one or a couple takes and you know and also like there are a lot of
1:16.3	parenthetical things in there and there are links to things that don't make sense
1:20.7	if you're if you're reading it and if you unless you explain the link and if
1:24.8	you explain the link then it doesn't work anymore because when you explain a
1:28.8	joke you ruin a joke and so instead I thought I would try something different a
1:35.6	sort of like weekly round up kind of thing and I have no idea what form it's
1:41.3	gonna take and if it really doesn't work we won't do it. Curious of your feedback.
1:46.3	I guess if it really really doesn't work you'll never hear it because like a
1:49.6	tree falling in the woods an experimental podcast that has never sent out
1:55.4	never really existed sort of like episode 11 but the less about said, less
2:01.5	that about that the better. So anyway it's been quite a week and the I don't know
2:11.4	really where to begin. The president is gonna do another one of his pressers in
2:15.7	the second and I gotta say I just I mean as I said on the dispatch podcast our
