Common Sense with Dan Carlin

Dan Carlin

Loud, fast-talking and deceptively funny, this politically-independent "forward-thinking pragmatist" looks at the events shaping our world through a uniquely American lens. It's smarter than you think, and faster than you expect.

What could be the cause of such a shirking of duty?

    This honestly puzzles me as he deliberately takes controversial positio... more
