The Jeremy Boreing Show

Is Gen Z cooked? Jeremy Boreing doesn't think so, and his three Gen Z guests are a big reason why. On the third anniversary of October 7th, Jeremy sits down with Nevaeh Souza, Jacob Falach, and Josh Carr for a candid conversation about why so many young Americans feel the American dream has slipped out of reach, and what it will take to get it back.

The panel starts with the hard question: why is Gen Z so unhappy? Josh argues the root problem is a lack of duty, and shares how a two-year mission, marriage at BYU, and becoming a father reshaped his life. Jacob says Gen Z doesn't lack authority; it has misplaced it, trading fathers, pastors, and bosses for whoever wins the algorithm. Nevaeh describes the content young women see online: motherhood framed as enslavement, marriage as a trap, and a gender divide fueled on both sides by social media.

Jeremy makes the case that the despair many young people feel is real but not fated. He talks about "destination vices" (pornography, gambling, and easy debt that once took effort to reach and now live in every pocket) and why the generational divide may run even deeper than the divide between the sexes. Drawing on the commandment to honor your father and mother and the principle of subsidiarity, he explains why the breakdown of the family leaves a free people without the tools to govern themselves.

Along the way they get into why almost every adult over 30 would trade places with a 20-year-old, unplugging for the Sabbath, Charlie Kirk's example of telling young people what to do, the black pill, what Jeremy would tell a 21-year-old who blames his circumstances on someone else, the $20 burrito, a purple Geo Metro with spray-painted racing stripes, and how marriage and fatherhood drive success.

In the final stretch, the panel turns to October 7th and how Gen Z's views of Israel have shifted over three years. The guests discuss rising hostility online, the "America First" vs. "Israel First" fight on the right, what Jeremy sees as an effort to fracture the evangelical coalition, and why he believes the West's greatest vulnerability is a loss of confidence in itself. "A country can't survive if it doesn't believe that it should," he says.

Jeremy closes by asking his guests a simple question: am I overreacting? Their answers don't all agree.

Whether you're in Gen Z, raising them, or trying to understand them, this is an honest and hopeful conversation about duty, faith, family, and the future of the American dream.

Nevaeh Souza — YouTuber, podcast host, author, and co-author of the pro-life children's book Tiny Human

Dallas Jenkins, creator and director of The Chosen, sits down with Jeremy Boreing one week after stepping off the set for the final time — 528 days of production over eight years. The two friends first met in Los Angeles more than a decade ago, before The Chosen or The Daily Wire existed. Now they talk about failure, surrender, ambition, and what it really costs to make art for an audience of millions.

Before The Chosen became a global phenomenon, Dallas was a director who didn't want to be called a "Christian filmmaker." He tells the story of The Resurrection of Gavin Stone — a film backed by Blumhouse and WWE Studios that tested well and then bombed on opening weekend — and the night that changed everything: a 15-page memo written until 4 a.m. and a Facebook message from a near-stranger in Romania: "Your job is not to feed the 5,000. It's only to provide the loaves and fish." That line became the name of his company, 5&2 Studios.

From there, Dallas walks through the unlikely origin of The Chosen: a short film shot behind a barn in Illinois, a crowdfunding campaign he expected to fail, and the COVID-era decision to give the show away for free. The two get into why neither man believes he "works for" the audience, how a council of biblical scholars, a Messianic Jewish rabbi, and a Catholic priest shape the show, and why success can be a spiritual danger. They also cover Christian ambition and narcissism, Dallas's 15-year pursuit of The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, and why online criticism no longer drives his decisions. And then the hardest question: after a decade of building Christian and conservative media, has any of it made a positive dent in the culture?

Dallas also previews what's next: The Chosen Season 6 arriving in late 2026, Season 7 and a resurrection feature film planned for 2028, the Joseph of Egypt series with Prime Video, a three-season Moses series in development, and another greenlit project he can't announce yet. Along the way, Jeremy shares lessons from his own journey and the two remember the late Andrew Breitbart, who believed in both of them before anyone else did.

Whether you've watched every episode of The Chosen or you're a creator wrestling with ambition, failure, and faith, this is a candid look at what it means to bring your loaves and fish — and leave the multiplication to God.

The most advanced, most comfortable civilization in human history is choosing not to have children. The U.S. fertility rate is near 1.6, well under the 2.1 needed to replace a population. South Korea hit 0.72, the lowest ever recorded. Why is this happening, and can it be reversed?

Jeremy Boreing sits down with neuroscientist Dr. Debra Soh, sociologist Dr. Brad Wilcox, and economist Dr. Catherine Pakaluk to dig into the biology, the ideology, and the policy behind the birth dearth, and what it would take to turn it around.

They cover why people stopped pairing up, marrying, and having kids, the "fertility gap" between the families women want and the families they actually have, what the sexual revolution did to family formation, Hungary's pro-natalist experiment and what worked and what didn't, why religious families are the one group still having children, the tragedy of abortion, and whether there's any government or cultural path back to replacement-level fertility.

Featuring:

Dr. Debra Soh — Neuroscientist and author of Sextinction: The Decline of Sex and the Future of Intimacy

Dr. Brad Wilcox — Director, National Marriage Project at UVA; author of Get Married

Dr. Catherine Pakaluk — Economist at The Catholic University of America; author of Hannah's Children

Where do the Jews belong?

This summer, Jordan Peterson posted a simple reminder about the term "Judeo-Christian": the Ten Commandments are Jewish, the great stories of the Old Testament are Jewish, and Christ Himself was a Jew. Parts of the online right pushed back immediately — Dale Partridge insisted the Old Testament isn't Jewish, Jack Posobiec said this isn't what Christians believe. It looked like a debate about theological vocabulary. It pointed to something much older and much darker.

In this monologue, Jeremy traces the return of the so-called Jewish Question, the "JQ" — from Britain's 1753 Jewish Naturalization Act, through 19th-century racialized antisemitism and Hitler's "Final Solution," to the algorithm-driven online spaces where a generation of young Americans came of age during COVID lockdowns.

At the center is what Jeremy calls the Nowhere Doctrine: five doors — the Old Testament, the New Testament, America, Europe, and Israel — that antisemites on the left, the right, and in Hamas are trying to close on the Jewish people. Jeremy responds directly to claims from Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Nick Fuentes, and Dale Partridge, and closes with a word to young Christians from Romans 11: "It is not you who support the root, but the root that supports you."

This episode discusses antisemitism, the Holocaust, and terrorism for the purpose of education and rebuttal. Quoted claims are presented in order to refute them.

Tonight Jeremy responds to Candace Owens's claim that he's "obsessed" with her — before sitting down with three business leaders who've decided that calling out evil isn't enough. You have to build the alternative.

After Jeremy's conversation with Blake Neff, longtime producer of The Charlie Kirk Show, the internet exploded. Blake was twenty feet from his friend when Charlie was murdered at UVU. On that episode, he spoke with clarity and conviction about the conspiracy theorists profiting off Charlie's assassination, and about the price of free speech. Tonight, Jeremy opens the show standing with Blake and explaining why it's essential for the good guys to fight evil relentlessly.

From there, the conversation turns to three entrepreneurs who aren't just complaining about the culture — they're building companies that change it:

Paul Brown, Marine Corps veteran and founder of Wasson Watch Co. in Richardson, Texas, runs a company that's Christian, American, patriotic, and conservative — and says so without apology. Wasson Watch Co.: https://wassonwatch.com/

He wrote for Tucker Carlson. He was Charlie Kirk's producer. He was standing 20 feet from Charlie Kirk at UVU when he was assassinated.

Now, he's breaking his silence.

Blake Neff sits down to talk about what actually happened in Charlie's final days, why he believes Candace Owens knows exactly who killed his friend, and how Tucker Carlson went from mentor to someone Blake says is enabling the worst conspiracy theories in modern conservative media.

Neff walks through the private phone call with a rabbi that conspiracy theorists have twisted into "proof" of a cover-up, the text messages Candace Owens misread as a death threat, the overwhelming evidence against Tyler Robinson, and the "Daddy's Home" Shabbat tradition Candace mocked even after being shown it was real. He also opens up about his own 2020 cancellation from Fox News and why he thinks conservative leaders have a moral obligation to call out lies inside their own coalition — even when it costs them relationships.

25 years after 9/11, a quarter of Americans believe their own government was behind the attack — and the "forever war" critique has spread from the far left to the mainstream right.

Jeremy Boreing takes on both lies: first dismantling the conspiracy theories from Alex Jones, Candace Owens, and Owen Shroyer with the actual documentary record (the 9/11 Commission Report, bin Laden's own confession, the money trail, the flight schools) — then turning to Tucker Carlson's claim that America's response to 9/11 was itself the real crime, tracing the war between the West and radical Islam back 1,400 years to the Battle of Yarmouk in 636 AD, through Tours, the Crusades, the fall of Constantinople, the Barbary pirates who enslaved American sailors before the Constitution was even ratified, and the decades of attacks — Beirut, Lockerbie, the first WTC bombing, Khobar Towers, the embassy bombings, the USS Cole — that preceded September 11th.

What emerges is a very different account of what "forever war" actually means — and why the loudest voices declaring it over might be the last people who should be trusted with that verdict.

Is AI going to kill us all by the end of the decade? A former Anthropic researcher thinks so, and his viral thread has 172 million views. Elon Musk thinks it's a setup. Anthropic's own CEO is calling for government regulation. And President Trump says the whole thing is a hoax cooked up by China to slow us down.

Jeremy is joined by retired Army Colonel and trial lawyer Kurt Schlichter, rapper and Oxford-trained computer scientist Zuby, and theologian Nathan Finochio to sort through the AI panic — and to figure out whether regulatory capture, not extinction risk, is the real story here. From there the conversation opens up into everything from the death of rock and roll under Obama, to why the West has stopped believing it has a mission the way Israel, Russia, and China do, to the making of The Pendragon Cycle and why beauty, color, and aspiration still matter in art. Plus: the growing political gender gap between young men and women, why shame culture might be worth bringing back, and what it actually means to be a good man in a culture that keeps telling you not to try.

Frank Turek was Charlie's friend and mentor. They shared one mission: to bring the gospel to college students. One year ago today, Frank was standing next to Charlie Kirk on the campus of Utah Valley University when he was murdered. He rode with Charlie's body to the hospital. He has spent the year since defending Erika Kirk, TPUSA, and his own name against a flood of conspiracy theories — chiefly from Candace Owens.

China's central bank just bought more gold in a single month than it has in nearly three years — its 22nd consecutive month of buying, at record prices. They're not doing it because gold is cheap. They're doing it because they've made a decision about what the next hundred years looks like.

Do we act like a civilization that plans to be here in twenty years? Or are we living through our own version of Rome's slow fade?

Jeremy Boreing sits down with three guests who take that question seriously: historian Jeremy Ryan Slate (host of The Roman Pattern), Oxford classicist Spencer Klavan (host of Young Heretics, author of "How to Save the West"), and Daily Wire columnist Stephen Kent (co-founder of Geeky Stoics, author of the upcoming "Great Escape").

Was Rome saved by Christianity, or by Constantine's gold standard? Is Stoicism a ladder toward meaning or a ceiling under it? And is Western decline a cycle we're doomed to ride out, or a choice we can still make differently?
