Calling all history buffs! (And those on the right asking, “How did we get here?”) On today’s episode, Patrick sits down with Matthew Continetti as the two take a deep dive into the historical roots, twists, and turns taken by American conservatives in the last century. Matthew is a journalist and author of The Right: The Hundred-Year War for American Conservatism. Listen as he defines American populism, gives a TL;DR version of conservatism’s backstory, and explains who the “new right” is. Plus, hear him answer questions about the current state of the conservative movement: Why was Ronald Reagan’s influence so important? How did Donald Trump end up winning the presidency? And what is the future of the American right? Listen now!
