We're starting off season two with a BANG! Mark Hemingway (formerly of the murdered Weekly Standard) graced us with his presence. Not physically of course, but Spiritually. We discuss being married to women who make more money than us, free markets, social values, and get some amazing musical recommendations. The Hemingways are notorious music snobs, which means when they recommend stuff its good.
The Music recommendations were:
S. Carey
Big Red Machine
Robbie Robertson, specifically his self titled album from 1987
The Blue Nile
And the Portlandia article can be found here: https://www.weeklystandard.com/mark-hemingway/insufferable-portland
Also Mark sent me the quotation he couldn't remember, and its pretty epic:
"One is reminded of an observation of the philosopher Rémi Brague. “Faith produces its effects only so long as it remains faith and not calculation,” Brague wrote in the 1990s. “We owe European civilization to people who believed in Christ, not to people who believed in Christianity.”" - Reflections on the Revolution in Europe by Christopher Caldwell
Alan and I finally bring our long drunken conservative conversation to a close. Season 1 of AK47 is mercifully over.
Last New Worlders episode on Ak47! And with that we are finished with the first Season! New intro theme coming soon!
Okay so this is the third time that this same episode has been deleted and re uploaded due to "technical difficulties"
The only new thing is that we included the intro for the New Worlders podcast at the very end of the episode. So if you've already listened to this episode just fast forward and listen to that. Sorry for the drama. The third and fourth parts should be up soon. Then Season 2 of AK47 can begin. We may design a new theme for the new season...not sure yet. We're very lazy!
Part 3 of 4 of our launch of the New Worlders Podcast.
Direct continuation of our last episode. AC Gleason and Alan Wells discussing stuff
The launch of The New Worlders Podcast, hosted by AC Gleason and Alan Wells. Part 1 of 4.
The New Worlders will be a tangential discussion show about Conservatism. Real conservatism. Not Libertarianism, not right wing, not traditionalism, not reactionism. No, Gleason and Wells will be obsessing discussing genuine conservatism. A new episode should be up every time The Salisbury Review drops over in England. That's the quarterly magazine founded by Roger Scruton, the Godfather of conservatism in our era.
It will also feature a different libation each episode and hopefully a paired cigar or pipe tobacco.
Look for the New Worlders to launch on its own channel eventually.
Aaron and a good friend of his are starting another podcast dedicated to Conservatism and all sorts of other chicanery. This is where that podcast will be launching! Eventually it will have its own site, etc. They have decided to call it The New Worlders and are dedicating it to Roger Scruton and The Salisbury Review. Happy New Year! We might make it to 47 episodes tonight!!!!!!
Aaron and Kyle end the year with another BS episode. This time, we talk about anime. We talk about what even constitutes an anime, what distinguishes anime from non-anime, what even is an "anime style," what shows got anime rolling here in America, a little bit about English dubs, and some good anime series or movies to start out with if you haven't watched anime before.
