The Remnant with Jonah Goldberg

Sometimes, even intellectual heavyweights like Jonah Goldberg can’t make out what’s going on on the other side of the aisle. Finding himself in need of an interpreter, Jonah turns to Atlantic columnist Tyler Austin Harper for a liberal-inflected look at Hasan Piker, the uses of Marxism, name-checking, human nature, the increasing appeal of the Butlerian Jihad, evolution, taboos, the failures of centrism, limits, and much, much more.

To the great dismay of fans of Jimmy Carter and Herbert Hoover, John Quincy Adams has been officially awarded The Remnant’s not-so-endowed chair of American public service. Joining Jonah Goldberg on the show today to make the case for Adams is Bob Crawford, historian and former bass player for The Avett Brothers. Bob and Jonah discuss Adams' brilliant career, his relationship with Andew Jackson, and his powerful rhetoric, along with the populist/elitist dynamic, the oddity of majority parties, abolitionism, the Amistad case, and Congress’s infamous gag rule.
