In this installment of Best Of The Gist, in honor of the 80th anniversary of the D-Day invasion this past week, we rewind nearly10 years back to August 2014 and Mike's interview with Ron Rosenbaum, author of <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/dp/0306823187/?tag=slatmaga-20">Explaining Hitler: The Search for the Origins of His Evil</a>. We also listen back to Mike's Wednesday Spiel about the true meaning of … "intifada." Did you think we were going to say, "Christmas"?

We Just Haven't Been Flapping Them Hard Enough

For thirty minutes each day, Pesca challenges himself and his audience, in a responsibly provocative style, and gets beyond the rigidity and dogma. The Gist is surprising, reasonable, and willing to critique the left, the right, either party, or any idea.
