Author and satirist Andrew Doyle joins The Winston Marshall Show to unpack the death throes of the woke movement—and why the culture war is entering a dangerous new phase.

Doyle makes the case that wokeness, as we’ve known it over the past 15 years, is collapsing—from the fall of DEI in major corporations to legal blows against gender ideology and the quiet retreat of activists once loud and proud. But he warns that authoritarianism never truly dies—it mutates.

The two dive into the roots of wokeness in postmodern theory and Marxist identity politics, the alliance between Islamists and progressives, and why institutions like the NHS, civil service, and comedy world became infected with ideology pushed by just 8% of the population.

Andrew also defends free speech by arguing that provocative art like Kneecap's performances and Kanye West's controversial song should be protected as essential expressions of artistic freedom.

All this—non-crime hate incidents, Islamophobia laws, comedy censorship, deep state subversion, and the long war between liberty and control…

Theologian and First Things editor R.R. Reno joins The Winston Marshall Show for a sweeping intellectual conversation on nationalism, identity, and the postwar consensus that still haunts the West.

Reno argues that the true crisis isn’t a conspiracy—but a consensus forged after WWII: a fear of nationalism, religion, and moral conviction, shaped by the horrors of Auschwitz and Hiroshima. He calls this the age of “weak gods”—a culture hollowed out by relativism, therapeutic liberalism, and meaning without truth.

From Karl Popper and the Open Society to the cult of DEI and the rise of populist rebellion, Reno makes the case that Western civilization is suffering from a kind of civilizational PTSD—and that only the return of “strong gods” like loyalty, love, and faith can offer redemption.

All this—postwar ideology, the collapse of civic trust, mass migration, shared mythos, and the spiritual malaise of modern life…

Veteran journalist Eli Lake joins The Winston Marshall Show for a sweeping, provocative conversation on Israel, foreign lobbying, and the ideological corruption of American academia.

Lake dismantles the conspiracy theories swirling around AIPAC and explains why blaming the Israel lobby for U.S. foreign policy is both analytically lazy and politically dangerous. He warns that the real threat comes from foreign influence through backdoor channels—Qatari billions funding American universities, PR firms, and think tanks that shape the national conversation.

They dive into the Foreign Agents Registration Act, China's influence via TikTok, and the rise of academic anti-Zionism, tracing it back to Edward Said and the postcolonial dogma now dominant in elite institutions like Columbia.

All this—foreign influence, the weaponization of academia, Middle East power games, and the narrative wars shaping the West…

Renowned comic and political commentator Jimmy Dore joins The Winston Marshall Show for a fiery takedown of America's broken political system—left, right, and center.

Dore rips into globalism, Bernie Sanders, open borders, and the billionaire-backed culture wars designed to keep working people divided. He argues that the real enemy isn't your neighbor—it’s the oligarchs running Washington, BlackRock, and Big Tech.

From Trump’s appeal to the populist left, to the weaponization of identity politics by corporate elites, to the deep state’s grip on foreign wars and media censorship—nothing is off-limits.

Jimmy and Winston discuss the Israel-Hamas conflict from different perspectives - October 7th, Netenyahu and the end of the recent ceasefire.

All this and much more…

Historian and author Raymond Ibrahim joins The Winston Marshall Show for a powerful, eye-opening conversation on the hidden history of Islam’s conquest of the Christian world—and why so few dare to speak about it today.

Raymond traces the rapid Islamic expansion following Muhammad’s death, showing how, within just one century, Muslim armies had violently overrun three-quarters of the original Christian world—from Syria and Egypt to Spain and deep into Europe.

He dismantles the myth of Andalusian "tolerance," reveals the brutal realities behind the so-called Islamic Golden Age, and explains how the Islamic conquests shattered the Mediterranean world, plunging Europe into the Dark Ages.

Raymond explores the modern censorship around Christian persecution, the resurgence of historical jihadist rhetoric in groups like ISIS, and the urgent lessons today's leaders refuse to learn.

All this—the real story of the Crusades, the lost Christian heartlands, the enduring legacy of conquest, and the history the mainstream media won’t touch…

Trump’s Director for Counterterrorism, Dr. Sebastian Gorka joins The Winston Marshall Show from inside the White House to lay out Trump’s war on terror 2.0—foreign and domestic.

Islamist cells, Venezuelan cartels, Antifa radicals, fentanyl from China, jihadi recruitment through gaming platforms—Gorka warns the threats are real, escalating, and now finally being met with force.

He details Trump’s executive kill order on an ISIS leader in Somalia, the crackdown on Hamas sympathisers on U.S. campuses, and the revival of a serious counterterrorism strategy that Biden dismantled.

All this—SignalGate, open borders, the war on the Houthis, fentanyl deaths, and the terror networks hiding in plain sight…

Trump’s former chief strategist Steve Bannon invites Winston Marshall into the heart of the War Room to lay out the geopolitical, economic, and cultural revolution of Trump’s second term.

In the White House, the deportation of 10 million illegal immigrants is underway, with the Alien Enemies Act invoked and the administrative state under assault. Meanwhile, Secretary Marco Rubio warns that an Ukraine ceasefire must be achieved—or U.S. support ends.

Bannon calls for total economic war on Iran—naval blockades, asset seizures, and sanctions—and rails against Qatari money, the CCP’s long game, and the “network effect” eroding Western sovereignty.

All this—China decoupling, World War III, Goldman globalists, and Trump’s 100 days in office

Journalist and author David Zweig joins The Winston Marshall Show to expose one of the greatest scandals of our time—the catastrophic shutdown of America’s schools during COVID.

Zweig reveals how faulty public health planning, political tribalism, and media malpractice led to the closure of schools for over 50 million children—causing untold harm while doing nothing to stop the virus.

He dismantles the myths: no, school closures didn’t protect communities; yes, lockdowns hurt the poorest children the most. From teachers’ unions to the CDC, from Trump’s missteps to Fauci’s failures, Zweig names the names and follows the evidence.

All this—Silent Lunch, the corruption of expert authority, media complicity, and the long-term damage we’re only beginning to understand...

Former Fox News host and political strategist Steve Hilton joins The Winston Marshall Show to expose the catastrophic failure of California’s ruling class—and why he’s now running for governor.

Hilton sounds the alarm on the state's sky-high poverty, homelessness, housing costs, and mass exodus. He blames decades of far-left policies, Soros-style “compassionism,” and a corrupt "homeless industrial complex" for gutting California’s promise.

We dive deep into the collapse of public education, the climate extremism destroying the economy, the war on affordable housing, and the madness of shutting down nuclear plants while importing dirty oil on carbon-belching supertankers.

All this...elitism, green Jim Crow, Newsom’s failures, and a battle to rescue the American Dream before it’s too late… #california #democrats #gavinnewsom
