Those of you still reveling in the 3 hour majesty that was Northern Alliance Radio yesterday have a chance to get yet another dose of insightful, brilliant articulation of history and current events, with a moderately conservative perspective.
Today on C-SPAN 2, Victor Davis Hanson is the guest on In Depth. A 3 hour live interview with the National Review columnist and author of such classics as Who Killed Homer?, Carnage and Culture, and Mexifornia. For observations on Iraq and the broader war on terrorism, there is no better commentator in the country. He’s a professor of the classics at UC-Fresno, and the historical precedents he draws to current evens are always illuminating and help clarify the truth often lost in the murky rhetoric of a Presidential campaign season.
Hanson is also an expert on the topics of the decline of academic standards, immigration, and, believe it or not, growing avocados and grapes. It should all be fascinating stuff. C-SPAN President Brian Lamb doesn’t conduct many of these interviews anymore. Which is too bad, since he’s a masterful interviewer and a terrific journalist. But he still does make appearances for the more prestigious guests. And if we get 3 hours of Lamb and VDH today, this could be landmark television.
