And Then There Were Three, Part 1

November 28, 2024 • Jim Driscoll • Season 4 • Episode 10

In this episode, Jim and Chris are joined by Luke Doherty, a fellow student with Jim in Birmingham. After talking for a little bit about what Luke was doing before he came to Birmingham, and what brought him back to studying, they consider the reasons for and possible lessons of the Trump victory. We had intended to discuss many more topics, but thought that since we had been going for an hour and a quarter, it might be sensible to postpone those to next week.
There is much agreement between Jim, Chris, and Luke, but also hints of disagreements as well, which we will be sure to explore in Part 2 next week, so be sure to subscribe to hear the rest of the conversation as soon as we upload it next week.

We'd love to hear from you -
