In this weekend episode, VDH and Sami look at, among other things, Tucker Carlson’s remarks at the memorial for Charlie Kirk and how Tucker’s brand of conservatism echoes Pat Buchanan’s, humanitarian aid efforts in Gaza, the failures of California’s solar power projects, and more. In the middle segment VDH assesses the Battle for Crete during World War II, placing it in the context of the larger war.
For some reason I associate “Karen of a Thousand Faces” with the name “Harcorn Fenton Mudd”
Prof Hanson… I like your comment ” Karen of a Thousand Faces”…. it conjures up a thousand images.
Professor Hanson is right about everything, as usual. Except that the hippie culture of the California colleges in the 60’s and 70’s did not then and does not now represent baby boomer beliefs or lifestyles. This only happened on very few college campuses and by very few people on those campuses.
Got to love Sweet Sami, the perfect foil for Grumpy Victor & Irascible Jack! She knows how to handle the boys with humor & tact.
