I’m joined by Finnish Twitter poster Bleppsama for a discussion on the Ukraine war. To begin, I ask Blepps if the war is subject to the same level of political polarization as it is in America. He explains why Europeans – liberal or conservative – tend to support Ukraine on average. Next up, we discuss demoralization, with Blepps offering some constructive advice for online right-wingers who have given in to it. We discuss the need to have a positive vision for the future, even if it’s a bit idealistic. Later, I ask Blepps what’s best for Europe: defeating Russia or prolonging the war in the hope that Ukraine reclaims its lost territory?

In the second half, available to subscribers, we consider whether Trump urging Europe to cover its own defense could benefit the continent. I then ask Blepps if this might result in more Chinese influence in Europe. Switching gears, we discuss Russia’s territorial ambitions. Before the episode concludes, I ask Blepps if Putin’s regime is domestically secure.

Lafayette Lee is the managing editor at IM—1776. He joins me for a sprawling discussion on the history of American identity. To begin, Lafayette shares his ideological journey. We then move on to our main topic: identity. What is it? I ask Lafayette about how his conception of American identity differs from Vivek Ramaswamy’s. This leads to a discussion on the problems with a purely ideological national identity. We then explore the racial and ethnic dimensions of historical American identity and consider their relevance to our country today.

In the second half, we discuss the role religion – specifically, Protestantism – has played in shaping America. Next up, the American creed. How has it changed over the years? We then consider how American identity has eroded over time. That being the case, what are we to do? Tune in to find out.

Pericles Abasi is an attorney, alpha male, and prolific Twitter poster. He is engaged to a woman. He joins me for a broad discussion on his posting career, Trump, the Harry Sisson scandal, and the future of the Democratic Party.

To begin, I ask Perry how he came to be such a fixture of right-wing Twitter. This leads to some reminiscing on the 2024 election—in particular, the Republican primary. We then learn a little more about Perry. How did he lose hundreds of pounds? Where did he meet his fiancé? (Hint: on Twitter). Next, we shift gears to discuss what one might call the alpha male mindset. Perry explains that there’s more to the label than humor and irony.

In the second half of the show (available to subscribers, link in reply), I ask Perry an important question: Is Harry Sisson an alpha male? His answer might surprise you. We talk about the Sisson leaks and consider whether he will be canceled. Was it an op to dispel the gay accusations? This leads to a broad discussion on the role (if any) masculinity plays in the Democratic Party. Later, I ask Perry whether the Democrats will moderate ahead of midterms and the 2028 presidential election. And if they attempt to do so, will it even work? Tune in to find out.

Isaac Simpson is a professional marketer, writer, and podcaster. He joins me for a broad discussion on art, public relations, and politics. First, Isaac recounts his intellectual journey. This leads to a discussion on marketing. Isaac offers a conservative perspective on the industry shaped by firsthand experience. We then talk about the vibe shift underway in America. Has this led to more artists and creative types defecting from the left? Next, we argue that Anora was not a good movie. Toward the end of the first half, we explore the relationship between art and politics.

In the second half of the show, available to subscribers, we shift gears to discuss Edward Bernays. Who was he? What were his main ideas? This leads to a broad discussion of public relations and mass media. What role does patronage play in marketing? Before the show concludes, we discuss how these ideas relate to right-wing politics.

Dr. Nathan Cofnas is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow in the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Cambridge. He joins me for a broad discussion of his ideas.

To begin, Nathan tells us about Cambridge’s attempts to cancel him. We then discuss why, in his view, conservatives have failed to effectively oppose wokeness. Nathan argues that hereditarianism is the only way forward. I then ask if leftists could accept hbd without altering their ideological framework. And what of normal people? Would the masses ever go along with hereditarianism? Switching gears, we discuss whether civil rights law is in fact the origin of wokeness. Nathan argues that it is not. Toward the end of the first half, we begin our consideration of what Nathan has termed “the right’s stupidity problem.”

In the second half, available to subscribers (link in reply), we continue our discussion of the right's stupidity problem. We then switch topics to the so-called "Jewish question." What is it? This leads to a discussion of Nathan's debate with Kevin MacDonald, and why both liberal speech restrictions and right-wing Jew obsession render a sober discussion of the issue difficult. Nathan argues that any political movement, right or left, that isn't explicitly anti-Semitic will attract Jewish people. We then consider the unique post-war historical circumstances that led American Jews to lean left on political and cultural issues. The show concludes with Nathan offering a few thoughts on the hereditarian revolution, which, he argues, "hasn't been tried."

Dr. Jason Richwine is a political commentator and author. He holds a PhD in Public Policy from Harvard University and is a resident scholar at the Center for Immigration Studies. Jason joins me for a broad discussion on immigration and American politics.

We begin by discussing Jason’s background and cancellation. What happened? I ask him if the right has moved beyond cancel culture. We then consider Trump 47’s progress on immigration so far. Are mass deportations happening? If not, how much of that can be blamed on ICE’s budgetary limitations? I then ask Jason about the border wall. Is that still happening?

In the show’s second half (available to subscribers), we continue our discussion of illegal immigration. Jason argues that immigration, legal or illegal, has many of the same consequences. We then discuss and refute several arguments made in favor of cheap foreign labor. How does mass immigration relate to the growing phenomenon of men opting out of the labor force? Shifting gears, we consider legal immigration. What will the Trump administration do on this front? Toward the end of the show, I ask Jason whether demographics are still destiny, in light of Trump's considerable gains among certain minority groups in 2024.

Twitter poster and Exit Group founder Kevin Dolan (Bennett’s Phylactery) joins me for a broad discussion on the birthrate question. To begin, Kevin tells us about his upcoming Natal Conference. (Sign up using the promo code CASEY to get 10% off.) He then outlines the problem: plummeting birthrates in nearly every country. Why is this happening? Kevin argues that most explanations for this phenomenon are inadequate and offers his own theory. This leads to a consideration of several commonly cited culprits, including technology and money.

In the second half, available to subscribers, we continue our discussion of the economic factor. Does offering financial incentives work? Sort of. But as Kevin explains, there is a ceiling for these interventions. We then discuss the role social status plays in the decision to have children. Can we easily reshape American society so that having lots of children is once again high status? Toward the end of the show, we discuss Israel, the only first world country with an above-replacement fertility rate. What’s going on there? Is it sustainable? Tune in to find out.

I'm joined by writer, editor, and seasoned poster Matt Forney for a broad discussion on American politics. To begin, we discuss Forney’s intellectual journey. We then talk about Trump 47 so far. Why has it proven so much better than Trump 45? What’s different this time around? We then make the case against accelerationism, explain why you can’t choose your elites, and ponder what will come after Trump.

In the second half, available to subscribers, we confront the "dissident right" term. Does it still have any value? Should it be discarded? We then talk about how the online/dissident right has evolved over the years. What are some lessons learned? Shifting gears, we consider the role culture plays in politics. Will the arts ever become a predominantly conservative thing? Be sure to SUBSCRIBE to find out.

Martin Sellner is a conservative activist from Austria. He joins me for a broad discussion on the European right, Trump 47, and metapolitical strategy. In the first half, we begin by catching up. What has Martin been up to lately? We then discuss the asylum showdown in Germany and the relationship between AfD and the FPO. This leads to a consideration of European identitarianism, including how it differs from left-wing identity politics. Shifting gears, we begin our discussion of Trump’s second term. What are Martin’s thoughts on it so far?

In the second half (available to subscribers), we talk about the effect Elon’s Twitter purchase has had on political discourse. We then consider why antifa has seemingly disappeared. What happened there? Toward the end of the show, Martin explains his concept of a radical flank. How can those of us to the right of MAGA steer things in the right direction? Tune in to find out.

I’m joined by Spergler Acolyte for a wide-ranging discussion on President Trump, America, and Oswald Spengler. In the first half, we begin by hearing Spergler’s origin story. How did he come to be right-wing? Then we discuss Trump’s first week and outline our expectations for the rest of his second term. This leads to a consideration of Trump’s historical significance and a brief review of the history of American citizenship. Shifting gears, Spengler explains why Counterstrike has gone woke.

In the second half (available to subscribers), we delve further into Oswald Spengler's work. Was it purely scientific or more of a poetic metaphor? We later discuss Spengler's culture-civilization dichotomy. I ask if decline can be reversed – and if not, what people who find themselves in the late civilization phase should do. Spergler, drawing from Spengler, offers some advice.
