The Ricochet Podcast
Summary: Ricochet offers the best, smartest, most interesting conversations on the web. Both for your eyes and your ears. But like everything else in life, it isn't free. The podcast you've selected is for members only. So why not join Ricochet, right now? You'll be able to hear the best in center/right conversation on all of our podcasts, make posts on our member feed, and of course, join the conversation on any post on the site. How much? Brace yourself: it's only $3.67 a month. Why $3.67? Well, when we started Ricochet, we pegged the price arbitrarily to the cost of a grande latte at the flagship Starbucks in Seattle. And that's a good way to think about the mission and the community here on Ricochet -- it's a place to have a cup of coffee with some of the brightest, smartest, most interesting people around -- our contributors and our members. Which we hope includes you.

Later, Arthur Brooks joins to discuss the fiscal cliff, what Boehner should have done, and then Governor Mitch Daniels joins us for his final interview as the chief executive of Indiana. We get the state of the state and a look ahead to his new job as President of Purdue University. Welcome back, everyone!
Christmas music ranges from the glorious to the banal to the utterly unlistenable, and since at least two of those adjectives apply to the Diner podcasts, it only seems right to return to the storied roadside cafe and see what’s on the jukebox. There’s no script - something that should seem obvious straight way - and a minimum of plot. Enjoy! (Diner art by Tom Dolan, who drew it for a story I had in the newspaper back in 1986. The Diner itself goes back to 1982 in fictional form, and was a radio show from 1997-1999, and a weekly podcast from 2006-2008. )
