Before we begin, a bit of housekeeping: Our fearless leader Jonah Goldberg is taping the 500th episode of The Remnant next Tuesday, and there’s going to be a live taping at the American Enterprise Institute in D.C. If you’re in town and want to see a special Remnant-palooza with many fan favorites, you can sign up here. Seating will be very limited and on a first-come, first-serve sign-up basis.
