Please consider bringing Glenn Lourey into one of your future columns and or podcasts. The guy is a true academic that espouses such a common sense approach to all things he touches.
This is great news, and I've subscribed--to you, a liberal, and me a conservative. The world is indeed moving in strange ways. Best of luck with the podcast!
Bari, was first introduced to you on a Megyn Kelly podcast. Became an immediate fan. Subscribed to Common Sense and have loved both that I e received. Thanks for the great work you and your team are doing. We can differ in political POVs and still engage in respectful dialogue. Good way to learn new things 😊
Such exciting news Bari!! I saw you on Real Time a couple years ago and have followed your writing ever since. This is an aptly titled podcast. I know that you’ll be great, and an injection of honest conversation into a significant podcast following.
Common Sense with Bari Weiss (that's you) is a great new voice. One can't get a bagel and a coffee in NYC for the $5.00 monthly fee. Although it's probably $10.00 for that breakfast staple now. I don't live there anymore.
Please pass to Majdi, his daughter, and associates my deepest Apologies for the horribly un-American treatments they have had to endure. This is NOT the United States I was raised in and taught to fight for.
Where is the great “Melting Pot” and Land of Opportunity I was taught and so proud to see for so many years?
Perhaps the thousands of people receiving the abuses that Majdi have can stay strong as he and especially his daughter have will be able to endure this, but WE better fix this.
Leaders will emerge (as Bari is showing), but they better get a lot of support -fast. The fools who are ruining this (1776) experiment are acting at every level of control (city councils, school boards, government, and most of all: MEDIA). We have to counter them on all the same fronts.
For maybe 10 years now I’ve told my friends not to worry, our backup reservoir of leadership and standards would be available from military veterans who understand leadership and how blessed we are compared to so much of the world. I do see some of that but when every vote before our Congress is straight party-line, I feel I’ve been naive.
Bari, a thousand thank you’s for taking the risk to provide something trustworthy and top quality for the world. I am so grateful for your courage, your insights, and your cogency, and for your merry band of subscribers supporting your efforts, of which I am but one.
May your independent star continue to rise and bring much-needed light to us all. xo
In addition to covering the absurdity of the "Woke movement", you should also cover the intrusion of corporation security into people's everyday lives.
Back in the 80's and 90's when I was able to stay home and raise my children I watched as day care exploded. Women were parking their 6 week old infants in day care. The thought frequently crossed my mind that warehousing children was going to have a deep, negatively profound impact on the country. Children need to form close, secure and intimate relationships with their parents and particularly a primary caregiver, usually their mother. When they don't they never form lasting connections to their family, and their community. The parents also become disconnected from their children. There were articles about quality vs. quantity of time spent with your children. Many experts thought that brief moments of quality time was sufficient. I never thought so. In my opinion, this warehousing produced deep feelings of insecurity and disconnectedness which leads to anger and distress. I see the results of this in the Left and in the Antifa and BLM demonstrators. The Antifa types certainly come from middle class homes where these children were not raised in material privation but privation of the secure relationship of a loving primary parent raising them in a traditional home. I have been surprised that I have not seen any articles investigating this hypothesis.

Can you please have Glenn Greenwald debate Daniel Gordis?
