The Derek Hunter Podcast

Never, ever forget.

I can't defend either, so I won't try.

These people are morons.

And they aren't going to stop, ever.

In this Labor Day edition of the Derek Hunter Podcast, Dean Karayanis — columnist for the New York Sun and longtime Rush Limbaugh staffer — reflects on effective persuasion, advocating for lighthearted mockery over anger when addressing detractors like Canada, enemies like Iran, and the useful idiots who buy their warmed versions of reality. The episode tackles topics including Iranian regime posturing, trade tensions and rhetoric from Canadian leadership, German commentary on American society, and historical reflections on the controversial, divisive Gloria Steinem and Margaret Sanger, the racist eugenicist who founded Planned Parenthood.

The show concludes with a reflection on the upcoming 25th anniversary of 9/11, highlighting Dean’s History Author Show interviews with an author, Jessica DuLong, who wrote about the spontaneous Dunkirk-style boat lift that saved half a million people from the Battery in Manhattan. Her book is, “Saved at the Seawall: Stories from the September 11 Boat Lift.” Plus, Dean plays a clip from the former New York governor, George Pataki, on his book, “Beyond the Great Divide: How A Nation Became A Neighborhood.” Both conversations are available at HistoryAuthor.com or at YouTube.com/@historyauthorshowPreserving American history and civic memory are of crucial importance, and it rests on all of us as citizens to ensure that the true story of that dark day isn’t erased.

The world is ill-served by what we have now.

Dale Carnegie would not approve.

Truly bad people.

They are worse than you think.

Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist and former Rush Limbaugh staffer, steps in for Derek Hunter to deliver a hard-hitting analysis of current political shifts and cultural double standards. He reacts to Representative James Clyburn’s condemnation of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, using them to highlight the hard left's demand for ideological conformity compared to conservative individualism. The episode also dives into media coverage surrounding the passing of icon Dolly Parton, criticizing partisans for attempting to politicize her legacy. Finally, Dean — whose wife is a “recovering Canadian” —- breaks down escalating trade tensions between the U.S., Canada, and Europe, challenging globalist policies, Canadian trade responses, and foreign reliance on American military protection and markets.
