Is War Forever Changed? | Victor Davis Hanson

Victor Davis Hanson is a distinguished classicist, military historian, and prolific commentator on contemporary geopolitics. Hanson’s latest work, "The End of Everything: How Wars Descend into Annihilation," delves into the unsettling parallels between the conflicts of antiquity and our modern symptoms of decline. In today’s episode, we discuss the reverberations of the war in the Middle East, the merits of federalism, and the consequences of a possible Trump victory. As we navigate an era marked by rapid change and global uncertainty, Victor Davis Hanson's insights prove the enduring relevance of classical wisdom in today’s world. This is a conversation you don’t want to miss!

At Stanford, VDH often had lunch with Thomas Sowell and Shelby Steele. What I would have given to be allowed to listen quietly to those wonderful minds. Professor Hanson is a teacher we can all admire and respect.

The brilliance of Victor David Hanson is that he can analyze very complex issues and present them in simple terms .
Isn't it a shame that this interview couldn't replace the debates between politicians. .

[deemcguirk]

Thank you, Ben, for having VDH as your guest. This calm hour brought clarity to these very complex situations. He’s brilliant. You’re brilliant. Period.

VDH is a brilliant man. I’ve been following for past 15 years. I wish I found him earlier.

Now after watching the whole discussion between Ben and Victor I can say that this is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. Thank you very much for making this Ben. God bless you and Victor - 2 people who actually talk about facts and truths in a calm manner.

I'm Jewish, I'm 23. I've been listening to Ben's podcasts for over a year now. It feels like my eyes have been opened. Now I just don't believe that I supported leftists and progressives

[phalcata]

Victor Davis Hanson, the legend. Extremely insightful and profoundly practical. As far as the future goes, we need more wise-minded individuals like him at the helm.

[Tony-hssc]

Victor is the best. I actually search and look constantly to read or listen to anything he has to say

[JoyJJ]

VDH is one of the only people whose words I truly believe. Great interview Ben.

[jbudd]

Thanks for professor Hanson. When VDH talks people should listen and think. His profound knowledge of history and brilliant analytical skills differ him from many pseudo scholars and speakers.

[Rdkhk]

Elevated discussions such as these are like finding water in the desert. Thank you!

[brachakishinevsky]

Thank you Ben thank you VDH! Every word is to the point! Unfortunately VDH is one of those very few honest people left!

[AdamSappenfield]

If all my conversations had the same structure that Ben uses in an interview I would be 1000 x (times) more productive. I would also spend less of my day rethinking that thing I said.
Great interview. Ben. You are really great.

[MassagePerfect-hhsm]

VDH is someone we should all listen to

[lukerenner]

Maybe the 2 smartest people in the public political discourse.
