Thank you for your support
THANK YOU so much for the great response to last week's email! As I type this, more than 80 people have chipped in to support Matt Lewis and the News.
It's so heartening to see this support for quality, long-form podcasts about ideas and politics. We're also pretty close to my first goal, which is 100 patrons. Will you please help us get there by telling your friends about it? (Remember, for as little as $10/month, they'll get an autographed copy of my book, Too Dumb To Fail!)
Speaking of quality podcasts...
Last week on the podcast, I talked to Jonathan Rauch, author of The Happiness Curve and Matt Margolis about his book, The Scandalous Presidency of Barack Obama.
This week, stay tuned for podcasts from the Washington Examiner's Salena Zito on her book The Great Revolt: Inside the Populist Coalition Reshaping American Politics and Harvard Business School professor Francesca Gino about Rebel Talent: Why it Pays to Break the Rules at Work and Life (what she calls "constructive nonconformity").
If you like Matt Lewis and the News, don't forget to (a) rate and review it on iTunes so other listeners can discover it, (b) help support me on Patreon for as little as $1 a month, and (c) tell a friend to sign up for this email newsletter at mattklewis.com.
3 Minute Theology
I just discovered this pretty amazing YouTube channel called 3 Minute Theology. If you are remotely interested in Christianity, check out this 3 minute video that nicely explains a pretty complicated subject.
On the TV with Don Lemon
It's always flattering to be invited on TV to talk about politics. It's especially fun, however, when the segment is based on something you wrote. Don't miss my recent CNN discussion with Don Lemon, Republican strategist Scott Jennings, and former White House Press Secretary Joe Lockhart, about another column I wrote on how Donald Trump's presidency is transforming American politics.
