Ideas, Politics, Culture, History
This brilliant podcast feels like the experience of reading a great journal of politics and ideas from cover to cover. The hosts cover a wide range of ideas, movements, and figures from the conservative movement — both past and present — and tackle them with thoughtfulness, nuance, rigorous detail, and a kind of overarching thesis or political philosophy about America and American intellectual life. They take conservatism seriously, and are never condescending or pedantic (as can often be the case with leftist discourse). They deftly and succinctly summarize the content they are discussing before moving on to analysis, in case you haven’t done the reading. And perhaps most importantly, they do the work of connecting the ideas of the right with the everyday politics of the right, and glean useful lessons about how the left can learn from these strategies. A brilliant podcast for anyone interested in American history and politics.

I am a 55 year Australian - I can’t remember who said it but our enemies have a better handle on our weaknesses than we do. I’m glad you take them seriously - your interaction is also very entertaining
