The Jeremy Boreing Show

Politics is entertainment now. So is the news. The Right finally figured out how to use that — and so did the grifters who came in right behind them.

Saturday night's third assassination attempt on Donald Trump produced a thirty-second video of Erika Kirk weeping and asking to go home — and split the country in two. Half saw a young widow retraumatized seven months after Charlie Kirk's public assassination. The other half decided she was performing. Same pixels. Two opposite perceptions. Like 2015's viral "Dress”—except what's implicated isn't visual perception. It's moral perception.

Jeremy Boreing makes the case that the cruelty being directed at Erika Kirk is not "trolling." It is the natural, predictable output of a fifty-year cultural project that elevated, organized, monetized, and amplified toxic femininity — the negative feminine of gossip, exclusion, and reputational destruction — while systematically dismantling positive masculinity and every institution that previously held those instincts in check. The result is an emergent matriarchy that Candace Owens once called "hellish" — but Candace is now its main promulgator, running the most flagrant toxic-feminine pile-on in modern conservative media: a gnostic conspiracy ritual dressed up as a true crime docuseries called Bride of Charlie.

Jeremy walks the data: women's self-reported happiness in continuous decline since the 1970s; the lowest U.S. fertility rate in recorded history; 70% of divorces initiated by wives, almost none for cause of abuse; female-majority institutions — K–12 education, HR, higher education — becoming dramatically less tolerant of dissent; the FIRE study showing male students are more tolerant of their political enemies than female students are of their own allies. He works through the literary archetypes — Medea, Jezebel, Lady Macbeth, Dolores Umbridge — and the academic research on relational aggression that confirms what those stories already knew. He names the men who've built the manosphere economy on the rubble (Andrew Tate, Dan Bilzerian) and explains why neither feminism's emergent matriarchy nor the trad movement's larped patriarchy is the answer.

Not a call to disenfranchise women. Not a defense of toxic masculinity. An argument that the answer to a bad cultural project is the slow, voluntary recovery of complementary masculine and feminine virtues — and that wicked men can only ever be constrained by good men.

Jeremy sits down with Lauren Southern — the woman who went viral on feminism and immigration as an impressionable 19-year-old, got permanently pigeonholed as alt-right, lived the trad wife life she'd been preaching, watched her marriage fall apart on the internet, and is now trying to figure out what Christianity looks like when public Christianity is almost entirely performance. Jordan Peterson twice told Jeremy he should hire her, but that never happened before Jeremy departed the company. This is their first conversation.

They get into the “redemption arc industrial complex” and the cinematic Culture War universe. Whether anyone can actually be a Christian online. Why Jeremy thinks uploading your soul to the cloud is a category error, and what a night at a bar at 3 a.m. really tells you about a person (and what it does not). The two right-wing media spheres — Prager and Peterson as the example on one side, Shaffer and Tate and Milo on the other — and the symbiosis between them. Why Lauren found Destiny more honest than the “trad” friends cheating on their wives while posting Christ Is King. How conservatism became so graceless there's no path back for anyone who fails the trad life. Chinese spies, Russian honeypots, and the economy of paid tweets nobody sees. And why Boromir is the best character in Lord of the Rings.

Jeremy is joined by three men who've each built their work around a different answer to the same question: what does masculinity actually look like when it isn't being sold to you by manosphere grifters? John Lovell (Warrior Poets Society) brings a decade of teaching men to be fully warrior and fully poet. Gates Garcia (We The People) brings the view from college campuses and the millennial mirror. Pavel (Be a Man With Me) brings the voice of an immigrant who noticed something was missing from American masculinity— and occasionally carries a machete.

They get into the manosphere and why Pavel calls it “porn for masculinity.”; toxic masculinity, toxic femininity, and the generation of Gen Z men caught between them; why men need male friends (and why your wife can't be one of them); the 15-degree phenomenon; Pavel's machete at the gas station; the institutional collapse that makes Gen Z the hardest generation in American history to date in; and the practical advice none of these guys are monetizing: ask a woman on a date, show up early to work, get off social media, and find out what “Till We Have Faces” actually means.

A lot of people believe they independently "woke up" to the truth about Israel, the Jews, and who really runs the world over the last two years. Jeremy Boreing makes the case that they didn't — they were sold a worldview using the same rhetorical machinery that's fueled every social contagion from eugenics to the population bomb to Covid-era hysteria.

James Lindsay — author, mathematician, and the man who coined the term "woke right" — joins Jeremy Boreing for a wide-ranging conversation on what's really happening inside the conservative movement.

Is the cultural "immune system" of the right holding? Or has a subversive faction — what Lindsay calls the woke right — successfully dressed up leftist methodology in trad clothing and insinuated itself into MAGA? Jeremy and James dig into the methodology, the ontology, and the history: from Marx and Rousseau to Alfred Rosenberg's "Myth of the 20th Century," from Catholic integralism to Carl Schmitt's unbound executive, from the paradox of tolerance to the principle of reciprocal tolerance.

Jeremy presses Lindsay on the question dividing the right: is he rooting out subversives, or is he burning down coalitions the movement can't afford to lose? They spar over Matt Walsh, Chris Rufo, Tucker Carlson, and JD Vance — and where the line sits between exposing bad actors and alienating potential allies.

They also get into James's positive vision: a high-trust society, Federalist 51, divided powers, stewardship of power rather than the wielding of it, and why loving America — warts and all — is the only foundation a real coalition can be built on. And in a rare personal turn, James opens up about faith, agnosticism, the Book of James, and why he doesn't particularly want to be remembered.

A vital conversation for anyone trying to understand the realignment happening on the right in 2026.

JD Vance flies to Islamabad for the highest-level US-Iran talks in nearly fifty years. Trump blocks the Strait of Hormuz. And Joel Berry says the war is probably nowhere near over.

Jeremy, Joel, Jon Lewis, and Ryan Chase also debate whether freedom can actually be exported, why Christians who disengage from politics have bad theology, the time Jeremy told a room full of progressive Christian do-gooders he was using government money to kill the gays, and why Project Hail Mary is a rebuke of everything Christian filmmakers are doing wrong.

The number of new Catholic converts just hit a 20-year high, driven largely by young men searching for a faith with roots, authority, and tradition.

But alongside this Catholic revival, something else is growing — something that calls itself Catholic but may not be: Catholic Integralism. Its proponents argue that the state must submit to the Church, that only baptized Catholics deserve full citizenship, and that the American founding — the Declaration, the Constitution, the separation of church and state — is heresy.

James M Patterson is an associate professor of public affairs in the Institute of American Civics at the University of Tennessee's Baker School of Public Policy and Public Affairs. He's also a contributing editor at Law and Liberty. He's President of the Ciceronian Society, and he's an affiliated scholar for the Center for Religion, Culture and Democracy. He's written two books, Religion in the Public Square and the upcoming book Why Post Liberalism Failed.

And they're not just in the academy. They're in the White House.

Jeremy Boreing is joined by biologist Colin Wright, Jacob of The Moderate Case, and Josh Carr for a Wednesday Live conversation that starts with a deceptively simple question — why are we addicted to despair when there's never been more reason for optimism? From there they cover the toxic economics of online outrage, the double-edged sword of anonymity, Trump's refusal to be a moral leader and what that vacuum has cost the right, the collapse of conservative institutions, and why victimhood on both left and right is best understood as a social contagion. In the back half, Jeremy turns the table on his younger guests with a frank warning about the slow, incremental compromises that turn principled voices into something unrecognizable.
