James Simpson, Manufactured Crisis (Post Hill, 2024)

Ask your guests to assess whether moving Ramstein to Poland is a good idea, given the useless contribution of Germans.

I encourage Congressman McCotter to refrain from using his speakerphone. It’s impossible to hear what he’s saying. Thanks.

Mr. Batchelor first got his wonderful hooks into me through his incredibly well prepared and thoughtful interviews with authors. I have purchased and read quite a few books based on these interviews alone. What is quite apparent is that Mr. Batchelor has most likely read the books he is discussing with the author or is intimately familiar with the subject matter. The pleasure that is apparent in the authors upon realizing this only adds to the interview. You see that’s how it started. Now I eagerly await reports from Australia on magpie activity, updates from Lancaster County regarding the shopping habits of the Amish community at the local Costco, discussions from 90 AD Londinium prior to attending the theater, first hand reports from the jungles of Panama on the Darien Gap, et al. I could go on and on. And I might. Thank you Mr. Batchelor. For anyone who is interested, the John Batchelor Show is an outstanding listen.

Guest author Patrick K. O'Donnell doesn’t know the difference between cavalry and Calvary. Really? Furthermore Mr Bachelor really needs to cease and desist with lurid editorializing show headlines “ripped from the news “ BUT which have NOTHING to do with program content. If he wants to editorialize then he should do it rather than bastardizing show headlines. Bachelor’s sleep walking descent into authoritarian views, abandoning conservatism for knee jerk right extremism becomes obvious when he makes desperate moves and perverts his own show titles to make cheap political hits. As a conservative intellectual Jon Bachelor long ago lost his way.

I have been listening to the John Batchelor show through radio the podcasts for years. Top notch and educational from space travel through current world events.

Want to be well-informed? Listen to this show!

I have been a listener of John Batchelor since September 12, 2001 and missed him during the hiatus he had. It upsets me that WOR doesn’t carry the fourth hour of programming.

He used to have some decent guests but they must have limited him. Now we get all the anti Ukraine people saying give up
