barry. you wrote the book on roger williams and the title also included a reference to the fellowship of america and i was wondering how the issues in that book would resonate today and with the discussions we're talking about? >> tank uses an. a friend of mine, wanted to get me into the conversation. that book actually began with a book on the homefront, world war i. and i had planned to, and identified certain characters that were going to and culminated since 1919, a very difficult any young american history, one of the characters i was going to follow his billy sunday and just doing due diligence, on billy sunday i started going back to the beginning of the argument over church and state and the role of politics and so forth and so on. i discovered if you change the grammar of the argument between john winthrop and roger williams, winthrop is of course the guy that said sitting on a hill, that that was exactly the same argument that we are having today. so things don't change, people don

john meacham and john barry. so we have a very modest subject america. and we have some people that know a lot about it. so i why don't we just start on my far right with the co-chair or the chair or the new orleans book festival. your co-chair always be co-chair never chair. so walter in your observation of all the people you have written about. and all the other people you've you've read about over the years who would you say is the greatest american we've ever had. benjam, look i mean besides david present company excluded. it changes depending on the moments of history, but at this moment benjamin franklin as a person we need most the person who knew most how to unify different viewpoints who could see across different disciplines to see the patterns who understood the basic underlying values of what it meant to be an american who helped bring the colonies together, but also understood how to do a realistic balance of power diplomacy, which we're doing very badly. i think with the ukraine situation where we're trying we're not trying to create a geop

demographer of the book of exodus john barry is i was able by spending time with him. i was then able to imagine if we go back. to the oval office to various moments and have a better sense of what it was actually like in that room because i knew what he was like, did he tell you in advance? he wanted you to give the eulogy at his funeral did you know that in advance? i didn't that we're not in that before the book, but some years. okay after the book before he died walter if you could interview or ask a question of any of the people you wrote about who were not alive leonardo einstein benjamin franklin. who would you want to most meet with and have dinner with and what question would you want to ask them? you know franklin's guy. you must want to hang around with he loved and vending thing. you'd want to show him off the new devices. what's the girls? yeah. well farmer's daughters jokes us type of things we shouldn't do now but to me leonardo's the great mystery just like the mona lisa where there's no sharp lines everything slightly schmado. it's called blurred. with

that's one thing i learned about our musical hero, john, barry manilow, is that he does not rest on his laurels. whether it was this musical or his show, which is record-breaking in las vegas, he's there every single day, working on the lighting, working on the choreography, working on the arrangements still of the music that in this case, in the case of the musical, he began to write 25 years ago. the pop songs, of course, he wrote five decades ago. >> so interesting, what i take from some of the clips i've seen of your show also it hasn't been easy to be barry manilow. i used to carry, this is true, i used to carry a quote from barry manilow in my wallet, no one was more surprised than me to find out i wasn't hip. basically it was barry manilow admitting when people told him that there were those who didn't think he was legitimately talented and a star that somehow he was corny, he was surprised that people felt that way at one point. and to me it was sort of a life lesson, live your life, don't care what people say. >> i didn't know that about you. that's fascinating that you had tha

i knew john barry was gonna bring a flood. so so the question becomes baldwin is like baldwin always committed to the idea of a new jerusalem, but he and i want to insist and i don't want to have to echo his voice that in order for that to happen. we have to grow up. and confront ourselves honestly about who we are as a nation that is so my argument back is that i'm not asking anybody to wait to we broadly put get our house in order. i think this is a description of human nature. perennial struggle between light and dark and good and bad that unfolds in our individual lives and then in a democracy. in the fullness of the nation itself because of democracy. largely, not entirely but largely the fullest manifestation of our individual dispositions of heart and mind and those dispositions of heart and mind give it just enough force. in just enough focus to the rule of law. and so that's one slide amendment i would i would propose. one of my favorite lines of baldwins comes from when he's writing about snick and florida. i want to

barry: so, this is a concept that our bloomberg calling john authers started in 2008 when he was at the financial times, talks about how successful we all are when we know what already happens. unfortunately, investing is a forward-looking prop -- process, not a backward looking process. my favorite thing going on right now, you have volatility, the market down 10%, hotter sectors like tech down 20%. right now, everybody becomes an expert on what you should have done six months ago. that is not how investing works. tom: i look, barry, at how investing works, but we have to recalibrate out of this, of amazon and apple, their struggles with supply chain and all the rest. do you ignore that noise or is that a part of the analysis at ritholtz's hindsight capital? barry: "ignore" is the wrong word. you have to put it into context and understand the long-term. there are two moments that challenge long-term, long-only investors. that is when they buy stocks and when they hold stocks. when you are buying something, whether an index or specific company, you are full of hope, wishing for the best

john mccaffrey, first to you. how are these new actions, including the javelins, going to make an impact and perhaps is there any way that they would shorten the war, which general milley said yesterday to congress is going to last years? >> i think, you know, that intervening with secretary blinken, indicative. best news we have in the united states. secretary blinken and secretary auston, secretary burns, extremely experienced people who have made an incredible impact on the war in a very short period of time, unifying nato, organizing cross-border movement, military supplies, humanitarian aid. look, andrea, the way ukraine loses is for this to turn into a war of months and years where the russians with immunity can pound ukrainian cities withstand fire. artillery, rockets, cruise missiles, that's where this is going. the challenge it seems to me is how do we infuse a quantitative edge in military technology so the ukrainians can carry the fight to the russians, the war is now in a period where the russians have

that period, the movement contended with the rise of the john birch society. matthew: anti-communist. patriotic. secretive. its founder was a conspiracy theorist. its founder believed that eisenhower himself was a communist. they went on from there. the conservative leaders like buckley and goldwater, they would not be able to make inroads with the everyday american public if they were associated with these crazy beliefs. the process of this entangling american conservatism from the john birch society began taking shape in the early 1960's. one of the reasons goldwater lost so badly is that project was not entirely successful by the time goldwater ran for president in 1964. he was associated with the birch society and conspiracy minded fringes. it wasn't until 1965 after the election when the john birch society came out against american involvement in vietnam that the conservatives truly repudiated birchers, and severed the connection with the movement for many decades. susan: does it still exist? matthew: it does. susan: this is william f buckley talking abou

let's cross to john holeman who's in occupied east jerusalem. john, you're damascus gate. i believe read, tell us what's happening the situation such to be changed since we last spoke, nick. last time we spoke there were barrys there just behind us. stopping people from getting in there was actually quite a crowd gathering on the other side of the barrier. you can see that it is rainy security forces have now taken that away and people are heading through damascus gate towards the alex and most are free late. there was also a barrier towards the top of this sorts of empathy. it's like a well of steps where people like to sit. so those have been taken away. that's important because when i access to alex of mosque is restricted, especially for the sentients, where a lot of people arrive from the occupied west bank to go and pray that it does cause additional tension. am problems so, so far this ramadan, israeli security forces have been trying to keep their presence more low key to, nor have those restrictions that have caused such problems in the past. and that for a moment

it's only been two months since the founder, john foley, handed over the reins. he gets 40% of the decision, right? foley's onboard, so is it foley's problem or mccarthy's problem? and blackwell only owns 5% in peloton. i think you need a bigger stake than that to make a change. the stock is down, what, 80% over the past year. stuart: i just can't see buying into a company where the activists are tearing it to pieces from the inside. susan: right. well -- stuart: what am i i missing here? susan: i would agree with you. is it worth the sale? is and who's going to buy it? apple's not, we know that for a fact, because that's not how they operate. maybe nike? maybe lulu lululemon? stuart: good luck. great product -- susan: you would know? you op own one of the bikes? susan: i do not. you know that. stuart: we've got to go. the s&p -- sorry, the dow winners headed by boeing, s&p 500 biggest winner there is american airline ares, okay? look at the airlines -- susan: travel. stuart: again on the nasdaq, bookings, top of the list there, and a couple of others too. back t

even as manager john foley is a brilliant guy. doesn't matter the crash and burn of the stationary bike stock, peloton needed to bring in someone new unbelievably they snared barry mccafe the subscription mastermind who worked his magic at netflix and spotify, with mccarthy at the helm, i am bullish on peloton. i think it's worth owning as a long term bargain, and today's run makes sense to me. how about the other pandemic poster child, zoom video paging the doctor, zoom flew way too close to the sun right? our mr. sun, coming from $588 to $94 in less than 18 months that is a move that's totally reminisceabnt of the dotcom era there's one difference, the dotcom obliterations weren't viable zoom was viable. it's still fairly expensive. trades at 35 times earning zoom simply must do something other than being a well managed video conferencing company too many competitors there will be nothing special about a video phone suite if they don't do anything, if they remain as they are where say count me out i feel the same way about docus

that's the john wayne movies. that's the presidential speeches. i learn about america from tupac songs, you know from listening to jerry rice talk about his dad lay in bricks and delta, mississippi, you know, and and the allen iverson posters and you know georgetown basketball jerseys and what i realized without knowing it at the time was that i was learning a truer version of american history than she was and that in terms of like well, how do we sort of break that cycle? i think we've started to see it in recent years. like i think a lot of the sort of themes in like the 1619 project this idea of actually black people have been at the forefront of every push to progress because it's always right the people at the bottom of the ladder that are going to want to upend it and you're going to want to like change the systems. so i think for like non-black people coming to america, there's like the rights that black people are winning for black people are rights that all non-white non black people will also sort of benefit from and so i think that's so
