First hour: Author Joel Stein on his book, "In Defense of Elitism"
Second hour: How three local villages made the switch to solar energy
Joel Stein is a journalist, author, and political pundit. His new book, "In Defense of Elitism," is a look at why President Trump won the 2016 election. Using wry humor, Stein argues that economic anxiety and racism were not the cause of the 2016 results. He says Americans voted for Trump because he attacked elitism. Stein joins us to discuss his work.
