It’s the weekend, therefore it’s time for another Ruminant. This time, it’s a monologue in which Jonah truly realizes how Remnant-y he’s really become. In his own words, “the point of conservatism is not to get the Republican Party elected.” In short, this is a “down with majoritarianism, up with principles” kind of episode.

    Jonah I just want to add my voice to those who love the Ruminant. It sounds frankly a little therapeutic for you and its educational for us as there is a lot of interesting tidbits that comes from an hour of you talking to yourself. However, since you are doing these alone and there is no one to respond to your sign off about "seeing us next time", I propose either you answer yourself by stating "no you won't this is a podcast" which would be a little odd though not entirely inappropriate or you replay Jack responding to your sign off which would be fun for us long time listeners.....

    Anyone else seen that Princeton is going to remove Woodrow Wilson’s name from buildings and programs? As Jonah said on Tuesday with Chris Stirewalt, it is remarkable that “the mob” came for Teddy Roosevelt before Wilson, but here we are. I don’t know how to think about his name being removed. I’m not one for tearing down history, but Sarah made a good point on Advisory Opinions that pure history is different from monuments (naming a building after someone seems like a monument), and that you can recognize the past without celebrating it.

    I listen to your solo podcasts when I workout on Sunday mornings. Always learning something even when we don't come to the same conclusion. Love the ones with the guests as well.

    Paid subscription was money well spent.

    I enjoyed the Q&Q format, but I am not on Twitter, so perhaps I can use this forum to recommend you have John Tierney as a guest.

    Thanks also for the inspiration to stick to a routine. I listened to this while out for a leisurely stroll in the sunshine and was tempted to take the day off as it was getting late. Instead, Jonah motivated me to add to my streak of days with cardio and then head inside for weight training. (Probably not the effect he imagined his words would have....)

    I always like listening to you Jonah , I learn a lot that I didn't already know, and I hear about people and things I don't know...and I just like the way you talk and think...even if I don't always agree with your conclusions or even understand them...lol

    I have a word that I can spell but not say and can't hear how I'm saying it wrong. The word is rural. My husband and the kids always got a real kick when I said it and then would repeat it correctly and I'd try again. I could not hear the second r. Apparently I say it as rule.
    Just a little feed back for Jonah. I enjoy the Ruminant very much and hope you keep on keepin' on although I get it if your schedule is a bit stretched.
