National Review’s Radio Free California Podcast
National Review’s Radio Free California podcast is a show about the perilous state of the Golden State — and what that means for you, wherever you live.
The Retreat of the California Resistance
From Governor Gavin Newsom to L.A. Mayor Karen Bass, state officials ask Californians to ignore the evidence of their eyes and blame Trump for weekend rioting.
From Governor Gavin Newsom to Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, state officials ask Californians to ignore the evidence of their eyes and blame Trump for weekend rioting. The state agency that allowed male athletes to compete against females backtracks fast in the face of Trump’s declaration that he’ll enforce federal law. San Francisco Unified abandons “equitable grading.” California Democrats convene just outside Disneyland and engage in magical (and mad) thinking. Democrats in the capitol seem sincerely baffled by rising gasoline prices. Bonuses! Attorney Julie Hamill details the sports showdown between the Trump administration and California, and “Great Books” podcaster John Miller discusses the life and times of Western writer and Californian Louis L’Amour. Music by Metalachi.
