About this episode
On this episode, Ben sits down with the assistant editor of The Claremont Review of Books and The American Mind at the Claremont Institute, Spencer Klavan. Spencer tells Ben how he was able to get his bosses to allow him to publish a piece based on the multiverse. In the piece, Spencer writes about why the current Marvel series occupies an important place in the American psyche, and why multiverses have played a popular role in ancient philosophy and literature. Spencer explains how current movies can explain a lot about where American culture is in the present moment.
Later, Ben weighs in on the abortion debate.
