0:25.4	Three-year listeners. This is Jonah Goldberg, host of the Remnant Podcast. I am back from Alaska.
0:32.8	I am whatever the Alaskan equivalent of 10 rested and ready is for this podcast. I want to
0:40.5	thank Chris Starwalt for taking over the microphone for a little bit. One of these days we should
0:45.3	just have him on and pretend and have him say he's me and see how many people notice.
0:50.1	Given how many people say we sound alike, very excited about today's guest. She is not a new
0:55.0	guest. She's a return guest from a million years ago. One of the earliest guests, one of my

2:13.5	a lot of stuff. She writes monthly for the for commentary. And welcome back to the Remden. And

2:25.9	show how I've been honing my interruption skills. So when I'm back on the commentary magazine
