A Danger to Ourselves (with Tom Nichols)

Preet answers listener questions about why Steve Bannon wasn’t immediately arrested after being indicted, whether the judge in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial acted inappropriately, and the likelihood of a civil war in the United States.

Then, Preet interviews Tom Nichols, a professor of international affairs at the U.S. Naval War College and the author of a new book, Our Own Worst Enemy, which raises a new theory about the rise of anti-democratic movements: that our own narcissism is at fault.
