Chris Stirewalt, the Arby’s of punditry and host of The Hill Sunday, was so eager to return to The Remnant that he joined in the midst of another episode. Awkwardness overcome, the two tackle the big questions: Why can’t we learn our lesson? Where are Nikki Haley voters going come November? How should we interpret primary turnout? When will the reckoning come? And why can’t democrats figure out crime? Chris “Unpledged Delegate” Stirewalt has the answers.

Show Notes:
—The Hill Sunday
—Jonah’s LA Times column on the GOP establishment
—Skiff AMA 3
—Dune Part Two Skiff

    Okay, I like you guys individually, a lot. However, the two of you together are a “must listen.” Seriously, you should have a monthly podcast because you make a great team. You’re both smart, well informed, articulate and FUNNY!

    My husband and I are excited every month, when we see a new GLoP podcast. This would make us ecstatic.!!

    I’m surprised you didn’t get more comments, but I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that it’s difficult to argue with anything you said. If you would give us the “like” button, it would be fun to see how many actually listened.

    Do you guys agree that I can't hear the Jonah/Chris sonic similarities even when I squint real hard? (and in the beginning I really could barely tell the difference

    The humans senses are miracles. They adapt to new sensations and reorganize it and it's just amazing.

    May your passions not forge your fetters. Yuval Levin citing Burke in his book "The Great Debate," makes a case, from my perspective, for the idea that a healthy society can't continue to prosecute it's way out of it's pervasive crime indefinitely, as it would eventually lead to a police state:

    "This interplay of liberty and restraint is key to Burke’s understanding of both government and the challenges of statesmanship. “Men are qualified for civil liberty in exact proportion to their disposition to put moral chains upon their own appetites,” he writes. “Society cannot exist, unless a controlling power upon will and appetite be placed somewhere; and the less of it there is within, the more there must be without. It is ordained in the eternal constitution of things, that men of intemperate minds cannot be free. Their passions forge their fetters."

    As John Adams put it: "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

    Just love when you two "bring it" while laughing and loving each others thoughts and company. A Bromance in the finest sense!

    It's not the southern hemisphere. 90% of humanity lives in the northern hemisphere: the southern basically has Brazil, the bottom part of Africa, Australia, and bits of Indonesia. The dividing line is probably around 25°N. I assume this is the reason for the phrase "The Global South", because the equator isn't actually a good dividing line.

    Is there a way to watch The Hill Sunday with Chris without a cable subscription? I would love to be able to see the full show (and the rest of News Nation) but don't currently have a cable subscription. I am guessing no but at one point I thought it was mentioned somewhere that Dispatch members might be able to at least catch The Hill Sunday at least (fingers crossed)?

      I think it’s part of News Nation, and you can get a subscription to that. BUT, it’s something like $65/month. I was so disappointed when I saw the price.

    I really hate it when you guys do a big set up for a guest, and then we wait and wait for him, and he never comes on. (Although in the case of Dewey Oxburger, I grant that it would be a bit tough to get him on the air at this point....)

    Great show as always, guys.
