Welcome, Discourse Surfers! In this episode, we peer behind the curtain that conceals Konstantin Kisin, and let me tell you, there’ll be no Kisin up to the fellow here.

Some say he has become passé in the political arena; I say the man is an evergreen source of - well - if not good ideas and clear thinking, then at the very least of amusement and salutary lessons in how not to reason. In this episode I examine a couple of his recent interviews: his appearance on Bil…
