Show Notes

In 2008, I voted in my very first election. I didn’t quite realize how much of an impact the Pro-Life voting bloc played into Republican politics at the time. For a political party that was so opposed to abortion, why didn’t George Bush do anything about it in his 8 years in office? Or his father? Or Ronald Reagan?

I interviewed Randall Balmer for In His Name in February of 2021, who helps answer some of those questions. Balmer is a professor at Dartmouth College, a prolific author, and maybe one of the nicest guys I've ever chatted with.

There's a lot of name dropping and tangents in this conversation. If you need more context or a guide to get into your own rabbit holes on this subject, be sure to follow along with the Substack.

Our theme song is "Apophenia" courtesy of Ross Christopher.
