leftistparisian ,

Thanks for the broader thinking

This is one of the most well-thought, interesting and entertaining show I've ever come across. The level of intellectual detail as well as the way it's communicated is fascinating never thought thinking about how conservative thought operates in the US would be this enlightening in my own struggle in France. Anyway thank you for the show hope there's a lot more to come.
