On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, WREC's Ben Ferguson fills in for Mark. Sen Chuck Schumer has labeled the SAVE Act—a bill requiring ID and proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in federal elections—as "Jim Crow 2.0," claiming it suppresses voters. This is racist – Schumer is implying that Black and Hispanic Americans cannot reasonably be expected to have or obtain an ID in 2026. Democrats support requiring ID for universal background checks when purchasing firearms but oppose it for voting. The only reason anyone would opposes voter ID is to exploit the system and cheat. The majority of Americans support voter ID. Later, President Trump realized that prescription drug prices have gotten too high. So, he launched Trump RX to lower these prices. This will save Americans billions of dollars. Also, Americans should closely follow the proposed merger between Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery, as it extends far beyond a corporate deal to impact American jobs, media control, and national security.  Culture, storytelling, and media serve as key weapons in the global battle of ideas, where foreign adversaries—particularly China—exploit weakened U.S. companies to spread authoritarian influence and propaganda. The merger would strengthen an American entity, preserve hundreds of thousands of middle-class jobs across multiple states, enable major U.S. investments like Netflix's new studio project, and help domestic streaming compete against Big Tech and state-backed foreign players.  Approval of the merger can bolster U.S. cultural leadership and protect against foreign dominance in the information war, aligning with Ronald Reagan's belief in safeguarding freedom through strong American influence.

"It's nice to have a reset. I'm looking at these people and I have something to work up to now, versus being at the top of the NCAA and hoping you get it right on the day.

In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan sounds the alarm on a clandestine Chinese biolab discovered in Las Vegas, tied to the same Chinese national behind the infamous California lab raid involving dangerous viruses, dead animals, and fraudulent COVID test schemes. He then covers explosive new inconsistencies in the Jeffrey Epstein jail death investigation, including missing evidence, conflicting officer statements, and questions the DOJ still refuses to answer. Back in Washington, Bryan breaks down the looming DHS shutdown as Democrats push demands that would effectively cripple ICE, while some Republicans float compromise plans that Bryan warns could be disastrous. The episode closes with encouraging economic and medical news, including rising wages for American truckers as illegal drivers are removed, factory growth beating expectations, falling remittances to Mexico, promising breakthroughs in cholesterol treatment, inspiring longevity research from Spain, and simple evidence that family dinners may be one of the most powerful tools to protect children.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: February 6 2026 Wright Report, Chinese biolab Las Vegas garage, Reedley California lab Jiabei Zhu David He, FBI CIA biohazard investigation, Epstein jail death inconsistencies CBS DOJ IG, missing noose surveillance video questions, DHS shutdown ICE funding fight Democrats Top Ten demands, Thom Tillis ICE defunding proposal, American trucker wages rise deportations, factory growth ISM surprise, Mexico remittances drop Trump immigration, LDL cholesterol pill Texas study, longevity ultra marathon Spain Juan Lopez Garcia, family dinner mental health Tufts University

Gia Santos joins Stew to dismantle the myth of Trump's mass deportations. Over a year into his second term, less than 350,000 illegals deported in 2025—far from the promised 50 million. Instead, DHS, ICE, and Border Patrol, backed by Palantir, are building a facial recognition dystopia to track Americans. Jake GTV exposes Trump's sellout betrayal, buried Epstein child rape tapes, and the AI surveillance grid Talmudic perverts are forcing on Americans to destroy us while pushing Netanyahu's Iran war.

Matthew Spalding is a professor of constitutional government at Hillsdale College and author of “The Making of the American Mind: The Story of The Declaration of Independence.”A century ago, progressive historian Carl Becker argued that whether or not we have natural, inalienable rights as described in the Declaration had become a meaningless question. He believed that the idea of natural rights was not a veritable truth but merely a creed or faith of the men of his time and a product of historical circumstances.Spalding disagrees. He argues that the existence of natural rights and natural law lies at the very heart of the Declaration of Independence. “It's a claim of truth,” Spalding says.Spalding regards the Declaration as America's “epic poetry”: “It's the heart of America ... really the heart of Western civilization.”The founders saw themselves as part of, and as a continuation of, a deep and long tradition, in particular the Greek, Roman, and Judeo-Christian beliefs in natural law and free will.However, after the American Civil War, early American progressives no longer viewed it that way, he says.Their goal was to transform the United States into what they considered a modern state, and they turned away from natural law and God-given rights, and they viewed the U.S. Constitution as a “living document.”Now more than ever, it is vital to rediscover the true meaning and importance of the Declaration, Spalding argues.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

This interview breaks down how self-employed first-time homebuyers can use intentional tax strategy to improve mortgage qualification and avoid higher-cost loan options. In this interview, CPA and licensed loan professional Dan Mullen explains why many self-employed first-time homebuyers are incorrectly told they cannot qualify for a mortgage. He breaks down the critical difference between taxable income and mortgage-qualifying income, showing how common write-offs can unintentionally reduce buying power if planned poorly. The discussion walks through legal tax strategies—such as depreciation, mileage, and asset treatment—that can preserve lender-approved income while remaining compliant with tax law. The episode also explains why bank statement loans are more expensive and why early coordination between a CPA and lender can dramatically change a buyer's outcome. “Buying a home is the financial foundation of virtually every American out there.”– Dan Mullen, CPA Highlights How can self-employed buyers legally qualify for a conventional mortgage without paying more in taxes?Why does writing off everything on your tax return often hurt mortgage approval?When does a bank statement loan make sense—and why is it usually the most expensive option?How early should freelancers and business owners involve a CPA if they want to buy a home?Check out our updated 2026 First Time Homebuyer's Episode Guide - Over 100 of our BEST Episodes of Detailed Homebuying Knowledge, Interviews, and MORE!

In 1848, engineer Charles Ellet Jr. puzzled over how to begin the process of constructing the first bridge over the Niagara Falls gorge. How would they get a cable across the river? Prompted by a dream, Charles decided to host a kite-flying contest: whomever could land a kite on the other side would receive five dollars. It was won by American teenager Homan Walsh when his kite landed on the Canadian side of the river. Homan’s kite string was secured to a tree and used to pull a light cord back across the river. Progressively heavier cords were pulled back and forth until heavy wire cable was in place. This was the small beginning of the construction of the Niagara Falls Suspension Bridge. The bridge’s challenges and inauspicious beginnings mirror those faced by those working to rebuild God’s temple after returning from captivity in Babylon. An angel awakened the prophet Zechariah with a message that nothing would thwart God’s work—it would all be accomplished “by [His] Spirit” (Zechariah 4:6). Some of those who’d seen the temple in its previous glory were fearful that the rebuilt version would pale in comparison (Ezra 3:12). The angel encouraged Zechariah that they shouldn’t “despise the day of small things” because God would “rejoice” in seeing the work begun (v. 10). Even though the tasks God has appointed to us may seem insignificant, we can be encouraged knowing He uses small things—like kite strings—to accomplish His great works.

Legendary Take That songwriter Gary Barlow joins us to share the most honest account of failure, shame, and rebuilding we've ever recorded on High Performance.The recent Netflix documentary charted Take That's journey - the split, Robbie's solo success, the comeback. But what it couldn't capture was Gary's seven-year internal collapse. The songwriter and leader everyone expected would conquer solo stardom was drowning while Robbie soared.After a catastrophic American launch performance, Gary walked alone through the rain with nobody from his label. What followed was seven years where he couldn't sing, couldn't play piano, couldn't even listen to music. Seven years of sitting in his studio pretending to work while doing nothing. Seven years of deliberate weight gain as armor and public shaming.Key moments include:* Trust Your Gut Over External Authority: How ignoring his instincts for industry pressure led to catastrophic consequences he never recovered from* The Fragility of Creative Confidence: Why someone who doubts themselves cannot create wholeheartedly - and how one moment can dismantle years of evidence* Understanding Shame vs Accepting It: Why he deliberately gained weight as armor and what it teaches us about controlling the uncontrollable* Small Steps Over Grand Gestures: His first run while overweight and smoking - giggling at how far he had to go but knowing he was finally "on the road"* Creating Psychological Safety: How Take That's reunion principle of "let's lose all the dickheads" transformed their worst years into their bestThis is a conversation about the fragility of creative confidence, how one moment of not trusting your gut can derail everything, and how the way back isn't through therapy or grand gestures - it's putting trainers on, lifting the piano lid, and just turning up.Our partners on this episode:Simba

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Proof of Life in an AI Age Clay Travis and Buck Sexton begin by highlighting President Donald Trump’s remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast, where he addressed faith in public life, new Department of Education guidance reaffirming the right to prayer in public schools, and ongoing federal responses to unrest and crime in major U.S. cities, including Minneapolis. They preview Trump’s wide‑ranging interview with NBC News’ Tom Llamas, which becomes a central theme throughout the hour. A major portion of Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show is devoted to the alarming and emotional kidnapping case involving the mother of NBC News anchor Savannah Guthrie. The hosts play audio from Guthrie’s public plea and analyze the unusual nature of a modern‑day ransom kidnapping in the United States. Clay and Buck discuss why the crime appears targeted rather than random, speculate on possible inside knowledge of the victim’s home and routines, and explore why this type of crime is now rare in America compared to other parts of the world. They also examine how advances in surveillance, DNA evidence, and digital tracking make successful ransom kidnappings increasingly difficult. Throughout the segment, they note that President Trump and FBI Director Kash Patel have committed significant federal resources to the case, underscoring its national visibility and seriousness. Kamala Woofs? A lively and humorous debate about the future of the Democratic Party, centered on Vice President Kamala Harris and the 2028 presidential race. Clay Travis sharply mocks what he characterizes as Kamala Harris’s inauthentic political style, using her recent “Kamala HQ” announcement as an example, and compares it to a famously absurd storyline from The Office. This sparks a prolonged back‑and‑forth between Clay and Buck over whether Harris will run for president again—and whether she could realistically become the Democratic nominee. Clay argues that Harris is likely to run and could benefit from changes to the Democratic primary calendar that elevate Southern states with large Black Democratic electorates, while Buck strongly disagrees, insisting that her past electoral failures and poor performance in swing states make her nomination politically disastrous. The conversation broadens into a larger analysis of Democratic strategy, race, primary politics, and voter turnout. Clay suggests Democrats may once again make a risky strategic decision based on identity politics and narrow electoral margins, while Buck counters that party elites will ultimately coalesce around a different candidate, particularly California Governor Gavin Newsom. Throughout the hour, the hosts reference betting odds, past primary performances, and voter behavior to argue their competing cases, turning their disagreement into an ongoing bet that becomes a recurring and entertaining thread. Clay's Needle and Poop Walk Clay delivers an extended firsthand account of his morning walk through downtown San Francisco ahead of Super Bowl weekend. Broadcasting from the iHeartRadio studios in the city, he describes being advised not to walk for safety reasons and then encountering widespread homelessness, drug use, abandoned needles, and human feces along a short route in the city’s core. Clay uses the experience to argue that urban decay, public drug use, and lack of sanitation are policy failures, contending that visible filth and disorder directly correlate with higher crime rates and declining quality of life in major American cities like San Francisco and Washington, D.C. A central segment of Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show features a detailed live update from Daily Wire reporter Lynden Blake, who monitored the full Arizona press conference on the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping. Blake confirms that a single ransom note was sent to multiple outlets, demanding millions of dollars in Bitcoin, with an initial deadline the same day and a secondary deadline the following Monday accompanied by explicit threats. She explains why authorities believe the notes are credible, citing accurate descriptions of the crime scene, and discusses lingering questions about security cameras, possible inside knowledge of the home, and inconsistencies regarding forced entry. The hosts also explore the family’s request for proof of life and the challenges posed by AI‑generated imagery, underscoring how modern technology complicates hostage negotiations. Sen. Dave McCormick A substantive interview with Senator Dave McCormick, who addresses major national and state policy concerns. McCormick discusses the growing national debt, massive federal deficits, and what he views as Washington’s unwillingness to enact even modest spending reforms. He criticizes resistance to work requirements for able‑bodied Medicaid recipients and warns that without structural changes, entitlement programs will collapse under their own weight. McCormick also speaks at length about bipartisan cooperation in Pennsylvania, highlighting his working relationship with Democratic Senator John Fetterman, their shared stance on issues like fentanyl, energy production, Israel, and government shutdowns, and his willingness to publicly defend Fetterman when he was attacked by his own party. Election integrity and voting laws are another focal point, as McCormick strongly advocates for the SAVE Act and nationwide voter ID requirements. He argues that requiring proof of citizenship is a basic safeguard supported by overwhelming majorities of both Republicans and Democrats and says lawmakers must publicly justify opposition to voter ID to restore trust in U.S. elections. The conversation then shifts to the economy, where McCormick credits President Donald Trump’s tax cuts, deregulation, and energy policies with fueling major investment in Pennsylvania, including tens of billions of dollars committed to energy infrastructure and data centers. He frames U.S. energy dominance and AI development as critical components of global competition, particularly with China.

NBC host Savannah Guthrie's mother has gone missing from her Tucson home. The show analyzes the case and the frightening possibility that Latin America-style ransom abductions could be a new part of American life.

Michael T. Lester, a U.S. Naval Academy graduate and former Marine Corps combat pilot who served in Asia and the Middle East, initially believed deeply in American ideals. Over time, he experienced growing disillusionment as U.S. actions abroad often contradicted official narratives and failed to align with stated goals of promoting democracy and freedom. His book provides a non-partisan analysis, arguing that repeated harmful outcomes across administrations are systemic features driven by incentives, not mere mistakes. It outlines an imperial playbook involving regime change, sanctions, proxy wars, and economic control, while linking foreign policy to domestic narrative management that manufactures consent. Lester applies this framework to current events like Ukraine, Gaza, and Venezuela, noting increasing global skepticism toward U.S. explanations. The provocative title refers to outcomes; from a global viewpoint, the U.S. often appears as the antagonist, emphasizing that denial hinders self-correction. Motivated by the view that silence enables complicity, Lester wrote this book to encourage honest reckoning in a multipolar world.

Glenn starts by discussing the SAVE Act and the popularity of voter ID laws nationwide, even within the Democratic Party. So why are congressional democrats like Sen. Chuck Schumer (NY) fighting so hard against it? Glenn reads through the lyrics of the song he wrote that will be performed live at Ellis Island during a Torch event honoring American immigration. President Trump has shown his empathetic side in recent months. Glenn takes calls from various callers, including one who was among the first in Europe to subscribe to Torch. Glenn discusses the importance of the original filibuster and why the Democrats' attempt to change how it works completely undermines what it was intended to be. Glenn reveals what's actually broken in America: the contrast between power and the people. Glenn also offers a potential solution: having members of Congress wear body cameras, just as police officers are required to do. Glenn reacts to Kamala Harris's latest announcement regarding Kamala HQ. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Two days of talks between Ukraine, Russia and the United States aimed at ending Moscow's war on its neighbour have ended with the exchange of more prisoners - but there's been no word on a peace agreement. The US envoy, Steve Witkoff, said the negotiations had been productive, but that "significant work" remained. Also: the UN human rights chief has appealed for hundreds of millions of dollars in funding, with the agency warning that it's currently operating in survival mode. China's leader, Xi Jinping, holds calls with his American and Russian counterparts in the space of a few hours, as he exerts his influence on the world stage. Savannah Guthrie, one of the best-known television news anchors in the US, makes a tearful appeal on behalf of her mother, whose disappearance is being treated by police as a kidnap. And the town in Japan that's cancelled a cherry blossom festival to try to stop thousands of tourists disturbing the peace.

"Sometimes you've just gotta be a little bit fearless." The last time Roisin Willis was on the Ali on the Run Show, the "fastest high schooler in American history" at the time was fresh off earning a gold medal in the 800m at the USA Track and Field U20 Outdoor Championships, and was headed to Stanford University. (Listen to that episode here.) Now, the middle-distance runner is wrapping up her time at Stanford — and she's gone pro! The two-time NCAA 800m champion opted to forgo her remaining NCAA eligibility in favor of signing a professional contract with New Balance, and she just made her pro racing debut with a stellar indoor season. In this conversation, Roisin talks about racing at New Balance Indoor Grand Prix (she ran and won the 800m), at Boston University (she ran 1:57.97, becoming the first American woman to break 1:58 indoors, and breaking the American record in the event), and at the Millrose Games (she won the 600m). She also talks about her struggles with mental health during her time at Stanford, and about the tools that helped her through the hardest days. Plus, a peek at what's next. (First: midterms!)

Welcome to another FULL SHOW episode of The Rizzuto Show, your favorite daily comedy podcast where common sense taps out and chaos takes the wheel. On today's episode, the crew tackles winter survival mistakes, social etiquette nightmares, and the very thin line between being helpful and becoming a Dateline episode.We kick things off with cold-weather car chaos, including why pouring boiling water on your windshield is a fast track to buying a new one. From broken ice scrapers to keys snapping off in car doors, the show relives some truly traumatic winter vehicle memories—proving once again that our parents somehow survived the ‘90s without hand sanitizer or logic.Things escalate when Lern admits to waking up a stranger who was asleep in her running car at a gas pump. Was it the right thing to do? Was it wildly unsafe? Should you ever approach a sleeping stranger? The room splits immediately, instant feedback pours in, and suddenly paramedics, gut instincts, and Ted Bundy references enter the chat. Just another calm morning on a daily comedy show.From there, the crew debates the art of car napping, the safest places to snooze between jobs, and why sleeping near playgrounds is always a hard no. Add in rest stop horror stories, debit-card-out-the-window driving hacks, and aggressive opinions about heater naps, and you've got a masterclass in American exhaustion.The episode also tackles one of life's biggest modern dilemmas: is it rude not to talk to your Uber driver? From quiet ride preferences to unhinged conspiracy chats, the gang breaks down the polite ways to avoid conversation without becoming a monster. Bonus content includes massage therapists who chew ice mid-session and why that should absolutely be illegal.Then it's time for Facebook Marketplace Price Is Right, featuring a homemade Predator helmet with real dreadlocks, questionable pricing strategies, and immediate rule disputes—because nothing says democracy like arguing over cosplay gear from Eureka, Missouri.The chaos continues with National Fart Day, showering-with-a-friend discourse, disaster preparedness reminders, and a shocking realization that some people don't know where their smoke detectors are. The show wraps with some hometown pride as St. Louis racks up major nominations as one of the best beer cities in America—because if there's one thing STL knows, it's brewing and arguing.If you like sarcastic humor, awkward social situations, weird news, and conversations that spiral wildly out of control, this daily comedy podcast is exactly what you deserve.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Winter driving hacks you should (and shouldn't) tryMale Cook Died In Olive Garden HorrorEastbourne: Former public toilet to become Mexican restaurant and shop as plans approvedThe Best Super Bowl Snack Of All Time, According To Delish FansHoney product recalled over undeclared erectile dysfunction ingredientSt. Louis Galleria restaurant recently closed with little notice after more than 30 yearsNew study finds the “100 Most Romantic Restaurants” across the countryThe Most Romantic Drive-Thru in the U.S. Is Opening Just in Time for Valentine's DaySt. Louis nominated top beer city in USA TODAY 10Best awardsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Prior to last month's killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, many white American citizens felt obligated to use their privilege to actively disrupt unjust ICE activities in their cities.

American culture tends to market aging as a slow fade into the background. After all, women are told that getting older comes with a loss of relevance, memory, and attractiveness. But what if the season of midlife isn't a crisis? We aren't just getting older; in fact, we're getting louder, bolder, and more authentic. On today's show podcast host Stacey Hutson dismantles the myth that our best years are behind us by breaking down the the science behind those hormonal shifts while also celebrating the fierce second act that follows.

In November 2025, Rod Dreher published an essay in the Free Press, based on an earlier Substack post he'd written, about anti-Semitism on the American right. Dreher had just returned from Washington, where he'd spent several days speaking with young conservatives working in think tanks and in government. What he discovered was that a significant portion of young men on the right, perhaps as many as 30 or 40 percent, expressed sympathy for Nick Fuentes, the white-supremacist podcaster who denies the Holocaust and openly attacks Jewish institutions and Jewish people. The trigger for Dreher's reporting was an interview of Fuentes in late October by another media personality, Tucker Carlson. Having watched that interview, Dreher witnessed what he called a Rubicon-crossing moment: the most influential conservative media figure in America giving a remarkably soft platform to someone who has praised Hitler and has made all manner of psychotic claims about the Jewish people. Dreher had considered Carlson a friend. That friendship ended when he called him out over the Fuentes interview. Dreher's voice is particularly important because he speaks from deep within the world of American Christian conservatism. He is the author of The Benedict Option, a defining text for thinking about Christian cultural withdrawal, published in 2017. He has also written extensively about his own conversion to Orthodoxy, and has spent much of his career reporting on the institutional health of American Christianity. So when he sounds an alarm, as he does in this conversation with Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver, about anti-Semitism spreading among young Christian conservatives, Jews should listen. This conversation was recorded in December, with Dreher in Budapest, where he now lives.

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – At its best, music brings people together. Jelly Roll's speech was a reminder of that truth. In a room filled with tension, he brought peace. In a night heavy with politics, he offered perspective. In a culture addicted to outrage, he modeled gratitude. It was a moment that felt unmistakably American—unifying a nation by highlighting our Savior...

Today on Stinchfield, undeniable proof that President Donald Trump has assembled the greatest cabinet in American history. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent delivered a masterclass before Congress, calmly dismantling Democrat hysteria while laying out a rock solid defense of President Trump’s America First economic agenda. Clear, confident, and in full command of the facts, Bessent showed exactly why Trump’s cabinet stands head and shoulders above anything Washington has seen before. Bessent’s testimony exposed the left’s economic illiteracy and reaffirmed why President Trump’s policies are working. Lower inflation pressure, stronger markets, and a government finally focused on growth instead of globalist fantasies. When Democrats tried to grandstand, Bessent answered with precision and authority, leaving no doubt that the Treasury is in the hands of a serious leader. We also break down President Trump’s powerful remarks at today’s National Prayer Breakfast, where he delivered an unapologetic defense of religious freedom in America. At a time when faith is under constant attack from the radical left, Trump stood firm for believers, churches, and the foundational role faith plays in this nation. We will play highlights from his speech and explain why it matters now more than ever. https://TheMaverickSystem.comhttps://GrantLovesGold.comhttps://www.EnergizedHealth.com/Granthttps://www.PatriotMobile.com/Granthttps://Twc.Health/Grant with code “Grant” for 10% offhttps://VRAInsider.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If a sports betting app has the data to know exactly when a user is struggling financially, should it have a legal duty to cut that person off?On this episode of Capitalisn't, we dive into the murky waters of the American sports betting explosion. We are often told that legalization simply moves an existing black market into the light, but guest Jonathan Cohen argues that the issue isn't that we legalized the industry—it's that we did it "recklessly."Cohen, the Policy Lead at the American Institute for Boys and Men and author of Losing Big: America's Reckless Bet on Sports Gambling, joins Bethany and Luigi to outline the serious costs of this rapid liberalization. His data shows that legalized online sports betting is associated with a 25% to 30% increase in personal bankruptcies, a notable rise in auto loan defaults and credit card delinquencies, and increased cases of childhood neglect.Is there a way to fix this market so that it is fair for consumers without imposing such a high degree of societal cost? Host Luigi Zingales suggests a broader solution: a "fiduciary duty" for data collectors. When you give sensitive information to a doctor, accountant, or lawyer, they are bound to use that data only in your interest. If a betting app sees a user's credit card deposits being declined or identifies a pattern of "loss chasing," should they be legally required to act in your interest instead of targeting you with VIP offers?

It's always an honor to chat with Ronnie Pontiac when he arrives at the Virtual Alexandria. He'll discuss his new book, The Rosicrucian Counterculture: The Origins and Influence of the Invisible Society. We'll uncover the secretive origins and widespread legacy of an invisible society that first surfaced within the occult-heavy court of Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II. We examine the significant impact of figures such as John Dee and Robert Fludd, assessing how their visions of universal reformation influenced the English Revolution and the eventual establishment of the American colonies. Finally, we examine how this “phoenix of counterculture” persists today, informing everything from the foundations of early science to the current psychedelic movement.
