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!

Excellent podcast

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.

I could listen all day

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!

An Intelligent Voice among the Pundits!

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.

Great information, as always.

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

Excellent Academic Perspective on Current Affairs

I like listening to JDH but the amount and length of the adds are beyond the norm. I’m glad that the show is a money maker for those involved but my drive me away from the Podcast.

Too many adds.

This podcast should be more popular than it is. This episode alone taught me more than the first year at my university

Every Word Was Insightful
