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.
