Donald Trump has taken office after a flurry of blanket pardons issued by Joe Biden. The 47th president gave a searing rebuke of the Biden administration and made a series of important promises in his inauguration speech, including sending troops to the southern border. Blogger Dave the Distributist joins me to discuss the incoming administration and whether we are seeing a true circulation of elites in the United States

Jean Baudrillard is a French sociologist and philosopher famous for his exploration of symbols, meaning, and communication. Despite being characterized as a postmodern thinker, his focus on media, culture, and technology contains many insights that can help to frame issues that the Right is struggling with today. Podcaster Mikeofpol joins me to discuss Baudrillard's work.

People of every generation love to give the kids who come after them a hard time. While Generation Z, or the “Zoomers,” have an attitude that can feel alien to their predecessors, they also face a unique set of challenges that their elders have a hard time conceiving of, much less addressing. Identity, spirituality, family, and economics have shifted under the feet of the Zoomers, and it is time for the Right to lead its younger generations rather than disparage them.

Every civilization is shaped by its ruling elite, but what happens when those planning your society cannot understand the average person? Authors Charles Murray and Christopher Lasch have both discussed the dangers of cognitive stratification and how it could destroy social fabric. We will be discussing how that problem recently manifested itself in the debate over immigration and employment.

California wildfires are doing terrible damage in and around Los Angeles. While leftists have been blaming climate change, a long list of government failures have exacerbated the disaster. Fire hydrants have run dry, water reservoirs were left empty, and DEI policies have created a firefighter shortage. Author Peachy Keenan joins me to discuss her personal experience living in L.A. County and how the fires have impacted the situation on the ground.

Conservatives and libertarians regularly name reducing the size of the state as their top priority but rarely consider the factors that drive the growth of government. For most champions of small government, institutional neutrality and the minimal exercise of state power are seen as metrics of success, but they rarely realize that those factors can actually make expansion of the state inevitable. While it is counterintuitive to modern proponents of small government, vigorous state action in favor of defending a unified culture is far more likely to protect liberty than policies like open borders and neutral institutions.

Elon Musk has been raising awareness about the horrific grooming gang scandal in the United Kingdom. Islamic immigrants spent over a decade preying on young British girls, and the U.K. government turned a blind eye to the crimes in the name of multiculturalism. Carl Benjamin of the "Lotus Eaters" podcast joins me to discuss Musk's ongoing clash with Prime Minister Keir Starmer and how the public is reacting to this scandal.

Every January, I collect the best or most important books I read the previous year and discuss their strengths and weaknesses. They do not need to be books written in 2024 — in fact, many are hundreds or even thousands of years old — just books that I read or reread last year. From philosophy to political science to sociology, these are the nine books that I would recommend going into the new year.

The New Year brought unexpected tragedy in a pair of strange terror attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas. While the attackers appeared very different in their motivations and tactics, both men served in the U.S. Army and were stationed at the same military base: Fort Bragg. Lafayette Lee, contributing editor at IM-1776, joins me to discuss.
