Podcasts: "The Hard Country" Ep.5, a bonus, and El Clásico

Talking with Melissa Ford and Newt Gingrich on Mexico.

With the Mexican President issuing threats to interfere with American elections, we had to return to the topic of Mexico and its woes in the latest episode of The Hard Country. Have a watch.

The Hard Country can be found on YouTube, quite obviously, and also at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Pocket Casts, and no doubt elsewhere.

I also had the privilege this week of speaking on the same subject with Speaker Newt Gingrich, which was a real honor. Unsurprisingly, he is among the few in the policy class who understood the trajectory of this issue early. A (real) humanities education is worth its weight in gold when it comes to human events.

As a dedicated fan of SEC football, I can affirm: LigaMX in general is well worth your time.
