This is the podcast version of a blog called Althouse, an old-school blog about whatever happens to delight or intrigue the blogger. I have n’t put up an episode in over 5 years, though I’ve blogged every day for over 22 years. We’ll see what, if anything, happens here, but I miss talking!

  1. 12/15/2020

    Slightly salty deep bite

    Person of the Year, calling Jill “Dr.”, deep and shallow, who cares that Elvis died, writing to annoy, Earthlings.

  2. 12/08/2020

    Beginning to see the light

    Dolly Parton, Tony Hsieh, Shel Silverstein, children’s books, luck, Buffalo Bill Cody, mediocre white men, Netflix murdering movie theaters, the collective mind, the Spelling Bee puzzle, the word “headpiece,” Darkmonth.

  3. 12/03/2020

    Getting better all the time

    An old aphorism, comic strips, John Lennon, toxic positivity, Biden’s rhetoric, Biden’s dogs, Cher’s elephant, emotional support animals, COVID restrictions on religious schools and figures on New Yorker covers.

  4. 11/29/2020

    First, there is a monolith/Then there is no monolith

    A Zen mountain, the “vanishing” monolith, Trump’s wall likened to a Christo project, the fiction of “The Crown,” David Brooks’s notion of the “rotting” GOP mind, lax grooming in COVID times, learning from hermits in COVID times, and the memory of smells.

  5. 11/26/2020

    Pilgrims and pardons

    Pardons, pilgrims, vacuuming, canceling....

  6. 11/24/2020

    Mystery metal monolith

    Trump’s non-bombshell, Trump’s subversion, Rudy’s movie, kids and COVID, Madison’s #1, Hillbilly Elegy, Biden loyalists want taking care of, the monolith of the Canyonlands, Trump’s non-weird 90-second press conference.

  7. 11/23/2020

    The brain is not for thinking

    Biden is boring, Biden and the media, Washingtonians want to party again, Trump’s failing fight, the brain isn’t for thinking, Tom Cotton for President, and the “Floor Frame” sculpture in the Rose Garden.

  8. 11/22/2020

    A less mamlish memento

    A transgender writer dies, 2 Latin words, a little Shakespeare, a Bible story about Hell, a NYT spelling game, the bad word “nappy,” the mysterious word “mamlish,” what’s new in Pompeii, the desire for a crisply clear election result, and the love of a soft misty morning.
