I was honored to be [interviewed by James Poulos](http://www.pjtv.com/?cmd=mpg&mpid=349&load=4965&ref=mereorthodoxy.com), one of my favorite young conservative writers on his worthy show *The Bottom Line* for PJTV.

I struggle to understand 3/4 of what James says, but I struggle because I know every word is worth understanding. It’s easy for me toss about superlatives, but [James really is a guy to watch](http://twitter.com/jamespoulos?ref=mereorthodoxy.com).

At any rate, probably not my best performance answering some of the questions. But then, it was my first. And if you’re interested in a teaser for what’s to come, [register (for free!) at PJTV and let me know what you think](http://www.pjtv.com/?cmd=mpg&mpid=349&load=4965&ref=mereorthodoxy.com). It goes behind the paywall after Friday, so watch it soon.

(And check out the comments, too, for a taste of what *else* is to come.)
