Excellent podcast

VDH's podcast should be required for everyone to hear. One minute from him is worth 5 hours of talk radio in factual and relevant knowledge of the decline of our world and how it is happening!

I could listen all day

Common sense and no nonsense is what I hear when I listen to VDH. He really helps put things in perspective. Also, if more people could maintain such a calm delivery when voicing their own political opinions, I believe there would be a lot more meaningful discussion/voting/policy making in our great country. I can listen to him whether I’m trying to nod off for a break or driving like a maniac thru traffic on the interstate.

An Intelligent Voice among the Pundits!

Victor David Hanson ALWAYS makes issues real as he discusses both sides and gives you the information to make your own decisions. If I were President, Hansen would be my advisor! My wife and I had the great opportunity to sit with him on the couch and ask him about issues facing our democracy. Since that amazing evening, we have seen him interviewed countless times on television and listened to his great podcasts. He is the professor you WISH you had in college! Victor Davis Hanson is truly a great American!

Great information, as always.

Thank goodness for this man. He can describe any situation we are facing with perfect clarity and total understanding that I find to be invaluable in figuring out the craziness of our current times.

Can't get enough...

Victor has one foot in the world of the blue collar man and his other foot in the highest levels of intellectual intelligencia. He has a historical wealth of knowledge that adds a level of understanding that helps to explain todays current events. Through his every word you hear (his) sincere reverence for the American experiment.

The College Professor I wished I had.

Dr. Hanson and Thomas Sowell are responsible for helping me and guiding me to think after college. I was a Dance/Fine arts major, (no connection to that weird Berkley gender studies professor that has no grace what's so ever). I believe she studied dance as well amongst other things. I knew that there was something missing in my learning a big, ''GAP''. My academics was mediocre and not as disciplined as my dance studies. I realized it was due to the ideas I harvested earlier on. That was a tough pill to swallow, but it was necessary moving forward.

I desired guidance from professors like you and Sowell, and would have save myself a lot of time and money. My academic education was developed and fine tuned on my own. Now I love American history and have a hunger to read all of your required reading. Now at 43, I am happily married with two daughters and my home base is in Davie, FL. I feel very blessed to have a Governor like Ron Disantis because he has Floridians, "back", especially when it comes to our children. Both my husband and I are making sure our daughters are not the next victim of the woke/progressive left.

I educate my 16yr old of what's happening now and I tell her, "you see what happened in the Gulag, Moas, Cuba, etc. due to socialism". It can happen here to, and it is happening now were seeing tiny little glimpse". That's why most Americans who's voices aren't heard doesn't want it here. She tells me everything she's learning in school that she questions, and we do our research and make the corrections as needed. Don't worry Dr. Hanson there are new Conservatives that's brewing in the shadows, and were not going to sit back and take the bate.

Thank you, Thank you Thank you sir for everything your doing for us. God Bless you.

I'm addicted to this guy

I cant believe how cohesive and neutral his info is. Could u imagine an ABC or CBS anchorman being this straight forward? That'd be real news.

Excellent Academic Perspective on Current Affairs

Sedition is an American tradition. If this is seditious then I'm happily joining the rebellion.
