Description

Few are more qualified than one Chris Stirewalt to kick off another year of punditry, eggheadery, rabbit holes, and rumination. For the first Remnant episode of 2025, Jonah and Chris discuss the ethical implications of dong something “country style,” who made the biggest political mistake this year, and debate the strategic value of “popularism.” Plus: the real solutions to inflation and the distinction between the swamp and the deep state.

Titles in the series (100)

In “The Remnant," Jonah Goldberg, the founder and editor-in-chief of The Dispatch, syndicated columnist, best-selling author, and AEI/NRI Fellow enlists a “Cannonball Run”-style cast of stars, has-beens, and never-weres to address the most pressing issues of the day and of all-time. Is Western Civilization doomed? Is nationalism the wave of the future? Is the Pope Catholic? Will they ever find a new place to put cheese on a pizza? Is Die Hard a Christmas movie? Who is hotter: Ginger or Mary-Ann? Was Plato really endorsing the Republic as the ideal state? Mixing history, pop culture, rank-punditry, political philosophy, and, at times, shameless book-plugging, Goldberg and guests will have the kinds of conversations we wish they had on cable-TV shout shows. And the nudity will (almost) always be tasteful.
