This episode is a celebration of the life and impact of Christopher Hitchens. December 15th, 2021 is the ten year anniversary of his death, so Cole and I discuss all things Hitchens in memorial. Both Cole and I were introduced to Hitchens through the religion angle, but there was so much more to his life and career. We free associate on his charm, intelligence, humor, wit and how he became must see Youtube. We also wax a bit on Hitchens as Quality (in a Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance sense), and finally give our thoughts on why Hitchens matters. Enjoy the episode!
