In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran β€” and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made β€œRick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

Favorite show right now is North of North... I hope it gets picked up for season 2! Thanks for all you do, TIN, for getting the word out there and asking for help, as it is needed. I commit to sending $$ when I have some come thru. Peace.

I went to a duelling piano bar for my birthday one year and part way through the evening a very drunk Elisha Cuthbert and Dion Phaneuf took over the pianos and shut the place down (as in everyone was escorted out to preserve their dignity) 1/2

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil.

It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

Twenty Lessons, read by John Lithgow Key selections from On Tyranny, for viewing and sharing

Here is my best guidance for action, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons more than eight years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."
