Matthew Sitman and Sohrab Ahmari discuss friendship across political divides. Both men have made their careers in political media and have made significant changes in their politics over the course of their lives – in Sohrab’s case, very publicly. These changes have affected some friendships and have left others intact. Sohrab and Matt and Susannah discuss the phenomenon of friendship that transcends politics, how difficult that can be, how painful when it doesn’t work, but how good when it does. They also discuss the social peculiarities of Left and Right, and challenge Jonathan Haidt’s moral foundationalism. They reflect on what Christianity must say to enmity and friendship, and end with an excursus on Dimes Square.
