George Will: On Politics, Baseball and the American Spirit

Today on Unbridled, Peter and George discuss just about everything: George's decision to get a doctorate in philosophy, why a doctor of philosophy would then become a newspaper columnist, the role of the columnist in American life, the meaning of politics, conservatism after Donald Trump, "Will's Amendment" to the Constitution, whether there can even be a such thing as artificial intelligence, and the designated hitter in National League baseball, among numerous other topics.
