Show Notes

A Neighbor's Choice writer Surit Dasgupta joins David Gornoski to talk about how Elvis embodies the American vision and how we can imitate him in a time of defeatism and nihilism. Did Elvis set a precedent for our current degeneracy? What can we learn from Elvis' powerful rendition of "An American Trilogy?" How do we move from a culture of reacting to that of innovation? What did Berdyaev mean when he spoke about a "new sainthood?" Why is there always a sense of ecstasy after every State of the Union speech by the US President?
