For those of you in the Badger State: I’ll be your Independence Day guest on Wisconsin Public Radio’s morning program from 7 to 8 Central.
Appropriately enough, I’m talking about the ideas in American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America, and their implications for our history, politics, and shared stability.
For those further afield, I’ll post a link to the podcast here when it’s available. [Update, 7/6/18: Here’s the audio link.]
I’ve appeared on WPR a couple of times in the past, including to talk about my POLITICO Magazine story on Milwaukee’s 21st century reindustraliztion drive, and another on the sequel to American Nations, American Character: A History of the Epic Struggle Between Individual Liberty and the Common Good.
