David Harsanyi, senior writer at The Washington Examiner and co-host of the You’re Wrong podcast with Mollie Hemingway, on some of the best books to read and the importance of reading in a society. David shares his personal experiences as a record collector and book enthusiast, highlighting the importance of revisiting classics like All the King's Men and The Great Gatsby. He also touches on the decline of reading and the rise of illiteracy, citing the book The New Dark Ages: The Death of Reading and the Dawn of a Post-Literate Society by James Marriott. The conversation takes a darker turn as they discuss the connection between illiteracy and the increasing barbaric violence in society. The discussion also explores the topic of anti-Semitism, with David sharing his thoughts on the current state of the Jewish community in the United States. He argues that the community has been unprepared for the rise of anti-Semitism and that it's not just a matter of being "woke" or "progressive," but rather a genuine concern for the safety and well-being of Jewish people. David also discusses the importance of forming alliances with non-Jewish allies who genuinely care about the Jewish community.
