This Is Nashville

Re-Air: David French: political commentator and writer

Listen Later

Today, we sit with David as he reflects on the rigidity of political thought and the ways he believes political discourse in America must evolve. Plus, we talk about his journey and what led him to write for high profile publications like the New York Times. As we enter another new era of Conservatism v. Liberalism, what does he envision for the future of our country?

This episode was produced by Tasha AF Lemley.
