About this episode

Since so many of our fellow conservative podcasts are taking the holidays off, we decided to do another special mid-week edition to observe the new year, and gear up for some changes.

Last year’s end of year show featured some low-probability but plausible predictions for 2024 (inspired by the late Wall Street guru Byron Weins’ annual practice, which was often right), and unlike other shows that never track prediction accuracy (like the McLaughlin Group, which had a terrible record once someone checked), we decided to do a scorecard. Steve was 0 for 6; John was 5 for 8 (depending on how you score partial credit); Lucretia didn’t make any new year’s predictions, but pointed out that ALL of her mid-year predictions came true, especially J.D. Vance for running mate.
