Young Americans The Ricochet Audio Network

Finally leaving. As Someone twice as old as it's stated limit of trusting people I probably should have left earlier. It's been an interesting run but more and more the guests and hosts don't seem to be taking on topics of really much import. It's kind of the Seinfled of Podcasts. Ephemerally fun but ultimately you could have better your time. And ultimately i realized that other that the connection to Jonah Goldberg. there really isn't much there (though Jack does a wonderful job there). Finally I'm not sure where the Anti-Calvinist/Reformed attitude came from or why it was needed. Is the audience really so large that you can alienate such listeners? Maybe it's something you need to be over 30 to understand. I wish this podcast luck, success and growth.

Hey buddy, love the podcast. Please the audio that I’ve noticed on this podcast and the Remnant where mics are completely maxed out. It’s nasty to listen to.

First, I’ll be 70 before the end of the year. That’s why I haven’t given it the praise it deserves sooner (writing at episode 25). I feel a bit like an interloper. Second, I live in Berkeley, which, with number 1, probably puts me out of the usual audience demographic. It also gives me, a long-time conservative, reason to listen. And (here’s the review) reason for more optimism than I’m usually given to.

I know quite a few young Americans, but most of them are politically uninformed or misinformed (having been schooled by my generation). All of them are on the political left. (Don’t get me wrong, even in Berkeley, many of them are truly lovely people, some of whom I do love dearly. But leftists nonetheless.) It’s great to hear from young people who seem to have been well schooled and also seem possessed of wisdom unusual for their ages. I worry about my country, but The Young Americans gives me reason to hope.
