First hour features THOMAS777 discussing his assertion that there can be no real “right wing” in American politics since 1945. I then ask him about the American right of the past, specifically the John Birch Society, George Lincoln Rockwell, and Francis Parker Yockey. This segues into an assessment the right of today as it exists now. After Thomas departs, Peter R. Quiñones and Stormy drop cutting insight and knowledge about the great awakening of America, the significance of the second Trump administration, Elon Musk, the “Kosher right” and much, much more.
Here are Pete and Thomas on Yockey
Here are Pete and Stormy on “the robber barons”
Dr. Monzo, who operates the substack account After The Hour Of Decision, joins me to discuss whether or not Spengler’s model of civilizations and their lifecycles can tell us anything about our current political situation. The discussion is framed by my essay “Spengler, The Election, and the Fate of the West,” which you should read before you listen (after is ok too). We discuss The Hour Of Decision in great detail, and we also try and draw parallels between Rome’s First Triumvirate and Donald Trump and his billionaire backers. The episode ends with further elaboration on some of Spengler’s main ideas.
This is an audio reading, with some commentary, of my historical essay on Vlad The Impaler. This audio is only an excerpt of the essay, which includes many pictures, maps, and a note on the historical sources. If you’re interested in what you hear, read the essay, it goes on to explain some of the political intrigue behind the scenes of these events.
Dudley is on fire right now, first as my guest on Digital Identity and now with his new article on millennial speak, which he has dubbed “Millennial Snot.” You’ve all seen it online, heard it on the news, and perhaps even been subjected to it when Trump comes up at dinner parties, church, little kids birthday parties, or anywhere else these people congregate. But what are its implications, what are they trying to communicate through their tone and body language? And why are they so f*****g annoying? Dudley and I dig deep and are here to tell you: you’re not alone. Everyone f*****g hates it.

For Halloween, my guest and I discuss one of the most iconic Gen X movies ever, The Crow. We both love the movie, but we wonder if it holds up for later generations because it was so "of the time." Despite its weaknesses, we feel the strength of the source material, the character, and the aesthetic is enough to earn it a place in film history and deserves a resurgence in the current wave of 90's nostalgia. We are of course, extremely biased.We expected to talk music a lot more, and Nine Inch Nails comes up, but stay tuned for the last 30 minutes, where we veer off to discuss comic books from the late 80's and early 90's. James O'barr wrote one of the best comics of all time, that we feel greatly influenced comics forever after. If you listen to this episode and haven't read the comic, we hope it inspires you to go and do so, its well worth it.Follow me on substack for bonus episodes, written content, and paid content as well at Astralflight.substack.comFollow my guest JZ Delorean at Enjoyer.com, he writes articles about the underside of Detroit metro life, and he was the perfect guest for this show because, as you'll hear, he was reading The Crow comic as it was being published by the Detroit comic shop that O'barr hung out at in the 80's, and talks about in many interviews.
My guest Stormy Waters and I detail the breathtaking corruption of the Ukrainian oligarch who employed Hunter Biden and received preferential treatment from Joe and the American state department ,and who subsequently backed and installed Zelensky, who of course has the full support of our government in his war against Russia. I should mention I mix up names a bit in this episode, there’s a disclaimer at the beginning, but at one point I say Poroshenko’s name repeatedly, but in fact I am discussing the period denoting the end of Yanukovych’s presidency and the beginning of Poroshenko’s, particularly when discussing the Euromaidan. I say Poroshenko a few times when I should’ve said Yanukovych (I did not look at my copious notes even one time during this entire episode, and I am not a historian of the Ukraine, my main focus was Kolomoisky - forgive me).
We then go on to have a lengthy discussion of Jeffery Sachs and the pilfering of the Soviet Union, among many many other things. There is two more hours to this episode behind a paywall, you can become a paid subscriber and listen here.
The dreadlocked girl from a bygone era went viral for a week on twitter, sending Gen Xers into a nostalgia spiral, and caused quite a number of Zoomers and Millenials to ask “what’s the big deal?”
My guest Dudley NewRight and I discuss this interview as a window into a world that no longer exists. What changed, how, and was the change for the better or worse?
Here’s the video in full (I’m so old I remember when this aired)

Lee, one of the people I admire most, joins me to discuss Apocalypse Now. He has written about it extensively on his substack, through the lens of Nietzsche’s Birth of Tragedy, though we discuss the film from many other angles as well. A supplement essay for my perspective can be found on my substack, “War Is The Father Of Us All.”
