January 26, 2026 Richard the Fourth - The West's Real Problem Isn't Political
The Current Thing is back, and we have a great guest.
I’m now only seeking out guests I really want to talk to about something specific, and this week I am talking to YouTuber Richard the Fourth about the tension between politics and spiritual development.
We discuss:
-Whether tackling political problems can compromise us morally and spiritually
-The version of Christianity he follows and why
-Whether Jesus was political
-His understanding of ‘Traditionalism’
-Why he found New Age thinkers like Eckhart Tolle lacking
-Masculinity, and whether men need a family
-Why the ‘Red Pill’ movement died out
-His predictions on Reform UK and the future of Britain
-C.S. Lewis
And lots more!
