Summary

On a very special episode of The Charlie Kirk Show, Charlie is joined by Jason Riley—a member of the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board, Manhattan Institute Senior Fellow, and author of the new book 'Maverick: A Biography of Thomas Sowell.' The two discuss the innumerable legacy of one of Charlie's favorite economists and all-around thinkers, sharing wisdom from "Tom," as Jason calls him along the way. From his upbringing to his education to his ascension to the top of academia, Jason vividly tells the tale of a man who truly seized the American Dream and helped guide the way for millions to follow.
