About this listen

Scott talks with Bret Stephens, New York Times opinion columnist and founder and editor-in-chief of SAPIR, a quarterly that covers issues of Jewish concern.

Starting in 2014, Brett co-authored, with fellow New York Times columnist Gail Collins, The Conversation, an edited transcript of a witty and substantive dialogue between two civilized colleagues from opposite ends of the political spectrum: Brett was the conservative, Gail, the liberal. Earlier this year, book projects for each paused The Conversation but, in September, the popular feature returned with Bret and a rotating panel of contributors including Times Opinion writer Frank Bruni.

Earlier in his career Brett had two stints at the Wall Street Journal: first in 1998 as an op-ed editor, then in 2004 to write the Journal's "Global View" column. While with the Journal, he received the Pulitzer Prize for Commentary in 2013 and the next year he released his book AMERICA IN RETREAT: THE NEW ISOLATIONISM AND THE COMING GLOBAL DISORDER.
