Summary

In the midst of carving a path to Yosemite, Jonah has graced us with a Ruminant that provides a weekly roundup of his writing – from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame to an example from his past that indicates why our radicals should Czech their privilege. He moves into a rumination on subconscious conservative messages embedded within Hollywood entertainment before discussing the unintended consequences of the Senate re-embrace of earmarks as well as the perks of sleeping in Walmart parking lots. It suffices to say that this Ruminant has a positively buckshot-like spread in terms of topics, so have fun with it. Show notes: - The Remnant with Professional Jonah Impersonator Chris Stirewalt - The member’s only Wednesday “news”letter from The Cleve - One of rock’s wildest singers has a permanent Vegas residency - Jonah’s Czech-cellent Adventure - Chekov’s Gun - “We made a person!” - The virtues of The Walking Dead - The weird Remnant with Nick and Guy - Jonah’s column on earmarks Learn more about your ad choices.

1:06.9	It didn't really hit me until my pre-recorded ads played.
1:12.0	And part of it was the lack of a better natural segue.
