I had planned to release the first Glenn and John episode of 2024 on New Year’s Day. Unfortunately, life had other plans, and John and I could not record as scheduled. So instead, my staff put together this collection of some of our favorite clips from 2023. John and I covered a lot of ground last year. Here you’ll see us addressing African American performance on standardized tests, the Supreme Court’s affirmative action decision, the riots of 2020, the Gaza War, and other big topics on the show.
Last year was a big one. Our community has grown, more people than ever are watching and listening to The Glenn Show, and we’ve put out material that I’m immensely proud of. None of that would be possible without your support. So I thank you for a wonderful 2023, and I’m excited to see what we achieve together in 2024. Happy New Year!
