The Dave Carter Show

Dave Carter, inspired by economist Walter Williams to live a full life before writing editorials and columns, served 20 years in the military as a Security Forces troop and Senior Military Historian. He deployed across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East, authoring over 40 Air Force Histories, and accompanying aircrews on combat missions in order to record combat events from a participant's perspective. A former radio host, private detective, and trucker with over a million miles logged, he joined Ricochet.com in 2009 after being invited by co-founders Peter Robinson and Rob Long. Author of hundreds of articles at Ricochet, The Federalist, and PJ Media, Dave began podcasting in 2018. He has interviewed celebrities such as Pat Sajak; pundits and presidential speechwriters from Victor Davis Hanson to President Reagan speechwriter Peter Robinson and "Cheers" Executive producer Rob Long; veterans such as a retired Marine Corps Drill Sergeant and a retired Special Forces commander; and authors such as Andrew Klavan, Professor Stanley Ridgley, and more. A life full of adventure and travel has brought interesting perspectives shaped by 20 years in uniform (including three tours of duty in the MidEast and one year in Korea), and living the life of a long-haul trucker on a 14-year American odyssey. Add in a sometimes cantankerous sense of humor and you have a podcast that features a continuing search for truth, laced mischievous laughter.
