Welcome listeners to a special extra episode of Know Your Enemy.

I'm your co-host Sam out there, Bell, and I'm here with my fantastic friend, Matthew Siddler.

Hey Sam, how are you?

Well, I was gonna say how you doing, Matt?

I'm doing great this morning, and I'm really excited to share this episode of The Dig with our listeners.

A real barn burner.

It is, it is.

Maybe a lot of the listeners have already listened to it on The Dig, in which case this is the same episode,

but I suspect some of our listeners are not already listeners to the great Jackamon magazine podcast, The Dig,

hosted by the brilliant, I think of him as like the communist Ira Glass, Dan Denver.

Yes, and when we record with Dan, it's always like a three hour affair.

By the end of it, your voice is horse and your eyes are clear Ian.

But that's the fun of it.

Yeah, you convinced yourself that it's really, really maybe all over.

But this is a great episode of his podcast, and he's basically just interviewing the two of us about everything that's going on on the right today.

We did another episode of The Dig with Dan about a year ago, where we talked more about the history of conservatism,

but this time it was all about sort of just surveying the landscape of the American right.

And I think it's actually, we covered a lot of ground that's not been covered on episodes of No Your Enemy,

and that's why we were so eager to share it with you here.

Because it's rare for us to be the ones interviewed.

Yeah, so I think we are a little more expansive than sometimes we even are able to be on the podcast, depending on the episode.

That's right, so we'll just get to it.
