Should we be surprised that there seems to be a renewed bipartisan consensus in response to aggression from Russia?

Are we back in a Cold War posture both in policy terms and in our politics? And speaking of today's

politics, what can the past few decades of Republican politics and

conservative ideas tell us about 2022 and 2024.

According to Matthew Continetti, quite a lot.

These are two of some of the big questions

we explore with Matt Continetti.

Matt's a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute.

He's founding editor of the Washington Free Beacon,

and he's a columnist for Commentary magazine.

He's also the author of several books and he's a new book just out called

The Right, The Hundred Year War for American Conservatism. This is call me back.

And I'm pleased to welcome back to the podcast, my friend Matt Continetti from the American Enterprise Institute and the author of the just published, just released a book, fabulous book called The Right, The Hundred Year War for American conservatism which I have been devouring I am if

if you have been shaped at all by conservative ideas and conservative politics this book is like it's a mixture of

a conservative politics. This book is like, it's a mixture of education, illumination,

therapy, it serves as a good therapist and and so and it's like also like kind of like

candy because there's just a great color and great anecdotes in it that many of which

I had like forgotten about or had never heard of.

So it's also actually for a book like this, it's actually kind of like a fun read too.

So I don't know if you've been hearing that from others to Matt but I want to jump into the book but thanks

for joining the conversation again.

Thanks for having me back Dan. It's a pleasure to be here to talk about my book.
