Episode 148 -- JD Vance's Communion with Jamelle Bouie
About this episode
Moira and Adrian discuss JD Vance's new memoir with guest Jamelle Bouie, exploring its themes and Vance's controversial rise in American politics.
Weird troll and sitting Vice President JD Vance's last memoir, 2016's Hillbilly Elegy , made him a household name and a darling with some surprising corners of American letters and politics. His new memoir-slash-retread, Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith reheats the Elegy -pie to massively diminishing returns, and is likely to endear him to just about no one. In this episode, Moira and Adrian talk to New York Times columnist Jamelle Bouie about the book and the strange and deeply resistible rise of JD Vance.
