The Conservatarians (aka, Ricochet Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel and Heatstreet's Stephen Miller) talk with Robert A. George of the New York Daily News about Trump's VP choice, Black Lives Matter, and the joys of improv comedy. We also process breaking news about Nice, predict convention speakers, and wonder why Obama refuses to rise to the occasion.

Intro and outro music is “Public Image” by PiL. Jon’s music pick this week is "Ha" by HTRK. Stephen’s music pick is “Cobblestones” by Say Hi. To listen to all the music featured on The Conservatarians, subscribe to our Spotify playlist!
