Elon Musk recently claimed that he will be challenging politicians who supported the spending in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and might start his own party based on opposing reckless spending. The billionaire even ended up debating the philosopher Nick Land on the issue. Could Musk's third party succeed where the Libertarian Party has failed? The Prudentialist joins me to discuss.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/...

This year's Pride Month is at an end and it is clear that the activists have lost significant momentum. War in the Middle East and riots in Los Anglos helped to wound a cultural movement which was already struggling from overexposure and a string of conservative victories. Does this mean the end of the Pride movement, or will gay rights simply return to a raunchier and more honest advocacy for the lifestyle? Scott Yenor, professor ...

The socialist Muslim Zohran Mamdani has defeated former Governor Andrew Cuomo in the Democrat Party primary for mayor of New York City. The radical progressive is expected to handily beat both the Republican candidate and incumbent Mayor Eric Adams in the general election. J. Burden joins me to discuss NYC's doubling down on far-left policies. We also look at a new Supreme Court ruling that represents a huge win for the Trump admin...

President Donald Trump made clear from the start: A nuclear-armed Iran is unacceptable. Trump knows his voters support a strong defense — but they’re tired of wasting American blood and treasure to fight foreign wars while their country falls apart at home. Now that the U.S. has carried out a precision strike and set back Iran’s nuclear program, it’s time for Trump to return his full attention to rescuing America from Joe Biden’s o...

The recent conflict between Israel and Iran created a bizarre roller-coaster ride that can only be described as hyperreal. Both Israeli and American leaders seemed to be moving the objective goalposts on a regular basis. Ceasefires were declared and then immediately violated. A mixture of symbolic and truly lethal attacks were carried out, making it difficult to gauge the real extent of the conflict. The Prudentialist joins me to d...

While many modern Christians are unfamiliar with the story, it was previously considered common knowledge that the death and resurrection of Christ sealed away the powers of the ancient gods. Several historians, such as Plutarch, comment on the fact, while early church fathers claimed it as a victory. Pastor Anderw Isker and historian Alex Petkas join me to discuss the fascinating moment in history and what it means for the modern ...

Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) recently appeared on the Tucker Carlson Network for an extended interview regarding the possible involvement of the United States in the Israeli war on Iran. The interview proved to be explosive, with several direct confrontations between the two conservative leaders. We'll be analyzing some of the most important exchanges and breaking down the points made by both men.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts....

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine triggered demands from elites in Europe and America for NATO-aligned nations to involve themselves in the conflict. Many Republicans were initially on board, with Fox News and CNN marching in lockstep behind intervention. But the Republican base quickly soured on the war once it became clear that U.S. involvement didn’t serve American interests. In a strange inversion, the Right became anti-war while th...

With the current push toward a regime-change war in Iran, many are speculating whether or not the United States will be drawn into another attempt to rebuild a nation in the Middle East. Despite America's disastrous record in previous attempts, politicians and pundits are once again dreaming about how the region can be reshaped through regime change. Podcast host J. Burden joins me to discuss why previous regime-change efforts have...

Last week proved to be chaotic, as war broke out between Israel and Iran, protests continued to escalate into rioting, and a Minnesota politician was assassinated and another wounded. In addition, President Trump's inconsistent messaging placed the entire project of mass deportations in doubt. The Prudentialist joins me to discuss the wild week that was.

Nick Land is a philosopher famous for his idea of technocapital accelerationism and helping to found neoreactionary political theory. Land joins me to discuss the mainstreaming of neoreaction and whether Donald Trump and Elon Musk are successfully implementing portions of the theory. We also discuss the nature of time, the ethnic nature of technological development, and the intersection of managerial theory with technocapital accel...

What’s happening in Los Angeles this week isn't just one more BLM riot over policing. This isn’t domestic unrest. It’s an invasion. Illegal aliens have flooded the streets, waving foreign flags and openly declaring their intent to reclaim California in the name of Mexico. This isn’t just ideological subversion or economic pressure. It’s open confrontation, and it’s playing out on American soil. Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts....

The Community Relations Service was created by the Civil Rights Act to smooth out race relations during desegregation, but like every government agency, it quickly took on a life of its own. The shadowy organization has an incredible level of secrecy and pushes woke agendas, including the normalization of trans kids and the planting of mosques in all Christian towns. Worst of all, the CRS is known to compel grieving families who ar...

Last week, President Donald Trump and Elon Musk had a major public falling-out, with both men throwing public insults at each other. This public battle seemed poised to break apart the coalition that won the 2024 election. Then over the weekend, anti-ICE protests in California escalated into full-blown riots, with cars burning and police officers under siege. Musk may have valid concerns about government spending, but it has become...

After multiple large waves of immigration America faces the After multiple large waves of immigration, America faces the difficulty of forging one unified identity. Some portions of the population are very tribal, while others lack any solid form of identity. Pastor Doug Wilson joins me to discuss the concept of a wholly American ethnos and whether it is possible for the country to come together under that kind of banner. Follow ...

Every year for the last decade, June has begun with a flurry of progressive propaganda as corporations, nonprofits, and government organizations kicked off their Pride Month celebrations. Social media accounts draped their logos in the colors of the rainbow, employees sat through monotonous presentations on the importance of inclusion, and every public space was jam-packed with the iconography of the new state religion. But this ye...

Most conservatives like to point out that the United States is a republic, not a democracy, but they rarely ask what the difference truly is. Benjamin Franklin stated that the U.S. would remain a republic only if we fought to keep it that way, meaning the system could change over time if the population was not vigilant. We will be exploring the classical definition of a republic, determining whether the U.S. currently fits the desc...

Leaked video of journalist Glenn Greenwald engaging in demeaning sex acts recently surfaced online in advance of a major appearance on Tucker Carlson's show. Instead of expressing regret, Greenwald decided to double down and claim that any behavior between consenting adults is no one's business. Greenwald has built friendly relationships with conservatives over the years due to his willingness to criticize the Left, and many conser...

Christianity is universal in the sense that it is the one true religion, but does that mean that it has to destroy the particularity of nations? Does Christianity really erase all borders and boundaries, or is there room for a Christian version of nationalism?

Classical liberalism was a real political tradition — one that helped shape the American founding. It deserves serious treatment. Watching it get paraded around by people who reject its core values is exhausting. If Locke or Adams saw progressive atheists wearing classical liberalism like a skin suit, they’d spin in their graves. The secular liberalism of the 1990s and early 2000s is not classical liberalism. It isn’t even an ally ...
