Podcasts about civic education

Today on Uncommon Sense, we're discussing the tragic state of the modern world.From the protests in Ireland to growing frustration across Western nations, many people feel as though their voices are no longer being heard by the institutions that claim to represent them. I'll share why I support the right of people to protest and why I believe the demonstrations in Ireland have resonated with so many people around the world.We'll also discuss what I see as a deeper spiritual crisis affecting modern society. Many of the political, cultural, and social problems we face today are symptoms of a broader moral and spiritual decline, one that cannot be solved through politics alone.In this episode:My thoughts on the protests in IrelandWhy so many citizens now feel disconnected from their governmentsThe growing divide between ordinary people and powerful institutionsThe role of faith, morality, and personal responsibility in rebuilding societyWhy I believe many of today's crises point to a deeper spiritual battleWhether you agree or disagree, this episode is an invitation to think critically about the direction of our culture, our governments, and our future.--https://www.youversion.com/bible-app

The Alliance for Civics in the Academy hosts "Can Civic Education be Liberal?" with Melinda Zook, Joseph Knippenberg, Benjamin Storey, and Dan Edelstein on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, from 9:00–10:00 a.m. PT. Civic education and liberal education are often treated as complementary, but their aims can diverge in important ways. This webinar explores how efforts to prepare students for democratic citizenship intersect with, and at times strain against, the broader aims of liberal education, including open inquiry, intellectual autonomy, and critical skepticism. Panelists will consider how institutions can navigate these tensions while advancing a coherent vision of civic learning in higher education.

On this episode of The Anchored Podcast, Noah Tyler, Chief Strategy Officer at CLT, is joined by Lawrence Reed, President Emeritus, Humphreys Family Senior Fellow, and Ron Manners Global Ambassador for Liberty at the Foundation for Economic Education (FEE).They discuss the parental involvement as the strongest predictor of student success, the significance of civics education in understanding constitutional principles, and the current state of economics education in the United States. They also reflect on historical parallels that can inform our understanding of current political trends.Dr. Reed's Forthcoming Book: Born of Ideas: How Principles, Faith, and Courage Forged America

Welcome to My Limited View with Sergio Novoa. How many times have you heard someone say,
“That's a violation of my First Amendment rights!” Usually right after getting banned from a Facebook group. Or muted at Thanksgiving. Or fired for tweeting something wild at 2 a.m. In this episode, we're breaking down what free speech actually means, what it doesn't mean, and whether you really support it…Or just support it when it agrees with you. Before you shout “That's unconstitutional!” again…You might want to listen.

Featuring Walter Russell Mead, this conversation dives into one of the most dangerous questions in the world right now: what happens if Iran gets the bomb—and is it already too late to stop it?  From the real stakes behind the Strait of Hormuz to the risk of a global oil shock, nuclear proliferation across the Middle East, and the limits of deterrence, Mead breaks down why the situation is far more complex—and more urgent—than most people realize.  The discussion explores whether war with Iran is avoidable, how U.S. politics and leadership shape these decisions, and why history suggests the cost of inaction could be far higher than we think. Mead addresses several important questions:   What happens the day Iran gets a nuclear bomb? Are we already too late to stop Iran? Would a nuclear Iran trigger World War III? Could one chokepoint crash the entire global economy overnight? Is doing nothing the most dangerous option of all? Walter Russell Mead is the Ravenel B. Curry III Distinguished Fellow in Strategy and Statesmanship at Hudson Institute, the Global View Columnist at The Wall Street Journal and the Alexander Hamilton Professor of Strategy and Statecraft with the Hamilton School for Classical and Civic Education at the University of Florida. He has authored numerous books, including the widely-recognized Special Providence: American Foreign Policy and How It Changed the World.

The Alliance for Civics in the Academy hosted "How Can Universities Strengthen Civic Education in K–12 Schools?" with Jennifer McNabb, Joshua Dunn, and Jenna Storey on March 4, 2026, from 9:00-10:00 a.m. PT. Universities are increasingly reexamining their role as incubators of effective citizenship. An essential yet often overlooked part of this work is strengthening K–12 civic education. This webinar explores how efforts within higher education can support civic learning in K–12 schools, with particular emphasis on the academy's role in training the next generation of educators. ABOUT THE SPEAKERS Meira Levinson is a political theorist/philosopher of education who is working to start a global field of educational ethics that is philosophically rigorous, disciplinarily and experientially inclusive, and both relevant to and informed by educational policy and practice. In doing so, she draws upon scholarship from multiple disciplines as well as her eight years of experience teaching middle school humanities, civics, history, and English in the Atlanta and Boston Public Schools.  Meira has written or co-edited nine books, including Civic Contestation in Global Education and Educational Equity in a Global Context (both 2024, with Ellis Reid, Tatiana Geron, and Sara O'Brien), Instructional Moves for Powerful Teaching in Higher Education (2023, co-authored with Jeremy Murphy), Democratic Discord in Schools (2019, with Jacob Fay), winner of the 2020 AERA Moral Development and Education SIG Outstanding Book Award, and Dilemmas of Educational Ethics (2016, with Jacob Fay). Her book No Citizen Left Behind (2012) won awards in political science, philosophy, social studies, and education and has been translated into Chinese and Japanese. Meira shares educational ethics resources on JusticeinSchools.org, materials to support K-12 educators working in politically charged environments at Educational Values in Action, and resources for youth activists and teacher allies at YouthinFront.org. Each of these projects reflects Levinson's commitment to achieving productive cross-fertilization — without loss of rigor — among scholarship, policy, and practice. Meira earned a B.A. in philosophy from Yale and a D.Phil. in politics from Nuffield College, Oxford University. Her work has been supported by fellowships from Guggenheim, the Edmond & Lily Safra Center for Ethics at Harvard, Harvard Radcliffe Institute, and the National Academy of Education. Prior to joining the Stanford faculty, Meira taught at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Jennifer McNabb is Professor and Head of the Department of History at the University of Northern Iowa, where she teaches courses on early modern European history and the history of England. She was Co-Chair of UNI's Civic Education Task Force, which created UNI's Center for Civic Education, and she was Co-PI for a National Endowment for the Humanities Connections Grant that developed UNI's first civic education curriculum: "Civic Literacy, Engagement and the Humanities." McNabb is also a Co-PI of a national grant that will establish the Iowa Civic Educators Institute, providing professional development opportunities for in-service and pre-service social studies and history teachers throughout the state. McNabb has received several awards for her teaching and has completed four courses for The Teaching Company's The Great Courses on the Renaissance, witchcraft, sex, and marriage. She currently serves as a Councilor in the Professional Division of the American Historical Association and as president of the Midwest Conference on British Studies. Joshua Dunn (PhD, University of Virginia) serves as Executive Director of the Institute of American Civics at the Howard H. Baker School of Public Policy and Public Affairs at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. His research and teaching focus on constitutional law and history, education policy, federalism, and freedom of speech and religion. His books include Complex Justice: The Case of Missouri v. Jenkins (University of North Carolina Press), From Schoolhouse to Courthouse: The Judiciary's Role in American Education (Brookings Institution Press) and Passing on the Right: Conservative Professors in the Progressive University (Oxford University Press).  Moderator Jenna Silber Storey is the Ravenel Curry Chair in Civic Thought in the Social, Cultural, and Constitutional Studies Division of the American Enterprise Institute, and Co-Director of AEI's Center for the Future of the American University.  She is also an SNF Agora Fellow at Johns Hopkins University and a Research Fellow at the Civitas Institute at the University of Texas at Austin.  She previously taught political philosophy at Furman University, where she was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Politics and International Affairs, and Executive Director of Furman's Tocqueville Program.  Her writing has appeared in outlets such as The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The Boston Globe, The Chronicle of Higher Education, Inside Higher Ed, First Things, and The National Endowment for the Humanities flagship journal, Humanities.  Dr. Storey is the co-author, with her husband Ben, of Why We Are Restless:  On the Modern Quest for Contentment (Princeton University Press, 2021).  They are currently working on a book titled The Art of Choosing: How Liberal Education Should Prepare You for Life.

In this episode of Purple Political Breakdown, host Radell Lewis sits down with Dr. Bernd Reiter, political scientist and Professor of LusoLatin American Studies at Texas Tech University, for a wide-ranging conversation about the crisis of representative democracy, extreme wealth inequality, and what it would actually take to fix America's political system. Dr. Reiter brings a unique international lens to American politics. Born and raised in Germany, he's lived and researched across Colombia, Brazil, and the United States, and has held positions at the University of South Florida, Harvard University's Afro-Latin American Research Institute, and the Barcelona Institute for International Studies. A Fulbright Distinguished Chair and the author of nearly 100 publications including The African Origins of Democracy (Routledge, 2025) and the forthcoming Status: Honor and White Privilege in Brazil and Beyond (Routledge, 2026) Dr. Reiter's work centers on democracy, race, and decolonization, drawing lessons from the Global South to challenge how we think about political systems. Together, Radell and Dr. Reiter tackle pressing questions: Why are people so disconnected from local politics? Should we rethink career politicians and embrace term limits? Can civic education fix political polarization? What would "legal duty" a jury-duty-style system for lawmaking actually look like? And in a country on the verge of seeing its first trillionaire, is it time to talk about upper limits to wealth? From the Swiss model of direct democracy to the Roman Republic's accountability structures, from deliberative polling at Stanford to the town hall meetings of Vermont this conversation explores real alternatives to the political dysfunction Americans are living through. Whether you lean left, right, or purple, this episode challenges you to think beyond partisan blame and toward practical, systemic solutions.

Assuming we already understand the parameters of “good citizenship” (obey the law; do no harm to others), how to decide what constitutes a “well-informed” citizen? Tom Schnaubelt, executive director of Hoover's Revitalizing American Institutions (RAI) initiative, and Checker Finn, a Hoover senior fellow and chair of Hoover's Working Group on Civics and American Citizenship, introduce Hoover's pioneering “Civic Profile” which launches in early March – a three-part test that assesses civics-related values, knowledge, and engagement. Also discussed: how to keep the civics “push” going past the coming American semi-quincentennial in early July (is a decades-long “civics renaissance” feasible?), plus other RAI endeavors currently underway at Hoover (national civics fellows, a networking Alliance for Civics in the Academy, “People, Politics and Places” fellowships that bring rural undergrad and grad students to the Stanford University campus, plus Hoover's USA @ 250 lecture series on ideas, institutions, and civic traditions that have sustained America freedom dating back to the republic's founding).   Recorded on February 25, 2026.  ABOUT THE SPEAKERS Chester E. Finn Jr. is the Volker Senior Fellow (adjunct) at the Hoover Institution and President Emeritus of the Thomas B. Fordham Institute. At Hoover, he chairs the Working Group on Civics and American Citizenship within the Center for Revitalizing American Institutions.

Roger welcomes Samuel Goldman, associate professor of humanities at the University of Florida's Hamilton School for Classical and Civic Education and TFAS faculty member, for a conversation about American political thought, civic education and the ideas that sustain a free society. Goldman reflects on his academic journey, his work teaching TFAS students in Washington and his commitment to helping young people engage seriously with the founding principles of the United States. They discuss Goldman's approach to teaching the Declaration of Independence by reading it closely and treating it as a carefully constructed argument about the purposes of government. Goldman explains how studying Jefferson's writings, “The Federalist Papers” and “The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin” helps students understand both the ideals and the imperfections of the American founding. They also explore the growth of civic centers such as the Hamilton School, the decline of civic literacy in K-12 education, the role of religion in public life, the influence of Adam Smith and how the founders might assess the condition of the republic 250 years later.The Liberty + Leadership Podcast is hosted by TFAS president Roger Ream and produced by Podville Media.

Marco Rubio's Munich Speech asks a question most leaders avoid: is the globalist era over? Professor Nick Giordano explains why this address signals the birth of a New Western Doctrine. The Rubio Doctrine on America First, sovereignty, and Western civilization marks a historic pivot from the "end of history" delusion to a new era of Civilizational Realism. Rubio's speech reframes America First as a revitalized alliance of sovereign nations, not isolationism, and rejects the post–Cold War "end of history" delusion in favor of civilizational realism. With America nearing its 250th anniversary, this episode connects Rubio's doctrine to Founding principles, industrial sovereignty, border control, and the cultural confidence required to defend a way of life. What You'll Learn The Rubio Doctrine: Why Marco Rubio's Munich Speech signals a doctrinal shift in U.S. foreign policy America First Redefined: How America First is redefined and civic cohesion ties directly to constitutional self-government  Western Civilization vs. Managed Decline: Why defending our heritage, without apology, is the prerequisite for national defense. Industrial Sovereignty: Why deindustrialization and supply chain dependency threaten national security The Presidential 1776 Award: Everything parents and students need to know about the national civics scholarship, including the February 21 deadline This episode delivers a clear, structured analysis of one of the most consequential foreign policy speeches in decades and explains what it means for America, Europe, and the future of the West.

This is the second episode in our series exploring William Tyndale's life, Bible translation, and legacy.

In today's show, The Right Side, we go beyond headlines and into the hidden architecture of power that shapes nations, markets, and everyday life.This episode breaks down why markets move on confidence, not just data, how the Federal Reserve and U.S. Treasury operate as two separate keys to the same financial system, and why **legitimacy — not force — is what ultimately holds a Republic together.We explore how money, law, and meaning interact to create stability or chaos, why unelected institutions shape daily life more than most people realize, and how global actors read America's internal signals as cues for pressure, testing, and leverage.This is a civic deep-dive for listeners who want more than talking points — a master-class in understanding how power really works inside a constitutional Republic.

In today's episode of The Right Side with Doug Billings, Doug cuts through the noise surrounding government shutdowns, criminal referrals, and viral political claims to focus on something deeper: standards.What does a partial government shutdown actually mean — and why did the Founders design the system to slow power instead of accelerate it? What is a criminal referral, what it isn't, and why a Republic never confuses a request for review with a verdict.Doug introduces a practical, citizen-level framework for separating allegations from evidence, explains how investigative “files” really work, and walks listeners through the Evidence Ladder — from rumor to conviction.This is a calm, civic conversation about proof, due process, and why a free society survives not on volume, pressure, or outrage — but on standards that protect both the innocent and the truly wronged.If you believe truth should come before trends and justice should come before the crowd, this episode is for you.Support the show

In this special 23-minute episode of The Right Side with Doug Billings, we slow down the noise and restore a standard that built the American Republic: evidence over emotion, due process over mob logic, and truth over narrative.With the latest release of so-called “Epstein files” dominating headlines and social media, Doug walks listeners through what those documents actually are — and what they are not. From understanding the difference between allegations, investigative notes, and corroborated evidence, to explaining how real investigations work, this episode equips citizens with a clear framework for evaluating claims without becoming captive to viral narratives.This is not a show about protecting the powerful. It's a show about protecting the people — and the standards that keep a free nation free.If you care about justice, constitutional principles, and the survival of the Republic in an age of screenshots and outrage, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.Support the show

In this episode of The Right Side with Doug Billings, we go beyond the headlines to explore what actually holds a free nation together when protest becomes pressure, law becomes optional, and politics starts replacing moral limits.We examine the difference between grassroots movements and engineered activism, the role of institutions in shaping legitimacy, and why ethics must come before ideology in a constitutional republic.This is a long-form, America-first civic conversation about faith, freedom, persuasion, and the quiet strength of self-governance — designed to inform, challenge, and equip listeners who care about the future of the United States, not just the next news cycle.

In this episode of The Right Side with Doug Billings, Doug explores a question sitting beneath today's biggest headlines: who really gets the final say when things go wrong?From America's decision to step away from the World Health Organization, to a Supreme Court case that could reshape the relationship between the President and the Federal Reserve, to the digital systems shaping how the next generation thinks and focuses, this is a wide-angle conversation about sovereignty in the modern age.This episode examines how authority flows through institutions, how accountability and independence create tension in a constitutional republic, and why attention, cognition, and culture may be as important to America's future as law, economics, and national security.Support the show

Law schools have a duty to create good citizens who uphold the rule of law, particularly at a time of significant sociocultural and political change (and unrest). Such duties cannot be ignored, one dean says, as universities balance all other aspects of students' legal education. In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Professor Catherine Renshaw, dean of the law school at Western Sydney University, about her legal career, how her background in private practice serves her now in academia, the need for law schools to prepare the next generation to be good civic servants, and the decline of democratic principles across the globe. Renshaw also delves into the nexus between a law graduate's ability to serve to the best of their abilities and having trust and faith in the system as a citizen, how motivated Australian deans are to help graduates do their civic duty, how best they can create the right culture, how students can be "practice ready", ensuring students are upskilled on AI, and her optimism for Western Sydney University.

Is America really on the brink — or is something deeper happening beneath the headlines?In this episode of The Right Side with Doug Billings, Doug breaks down the difference between panic and pressure, and why rising anxiety is often a sign of shifting legitimacy, not societal collapse. Drawing from American history and constitutional design, this episode explores how authority, power, and consent interact when institutions escalate and narratives intensify.You'll hear a strategic analysis of why “inevitability” language appears during periods of political and global realignment, how media urgency shapes public perception, and why citizen engagement and elections function as the constitutional pressure valves of a republic.This is a calm, educational look at accountability, sovereignty, and civic responsibility — and what history suggests comes next when a nation reassesses who truly holds power.Support the show

250 years ago tomorrow, a relatively unknown colonist swept up in revolutionary fever, Thomas Paine, wrote and published a pamphlet called Common Sense, criticizing King George III of England. The document would be one of the most sold and circulated written works published in America, before or after independence, and helped tip the scales for Independence from Great Britain, which was realized just 6 months later. For the anniversary, Julie Silverbrook, vice president of Civic Education at the National Constitution Center, reflects on the legacy and present implications of "Common Sense."

As America approaches its 250th anniversary, Rich Bennett and cohost Greg Derwart take a deeper look at what America's Founding Fathers got right and wrong. This episode explores the real stories, leadership decisions, and human flaws behind Ben Franklin, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson.From Franklin's entrepreneurial mindset and inventions, to Washington's quiet leadership and willingness to step down from power, to Jefferson's role as philosopher, writer, and dealmaker, this conversation goes far beyond what most of us learned in school. Rich and Greg connect history to modern leadership, business, and civic responsibility, showing why these lessons still matter today.Sponsored by Eco-Cool HVAC, a veteran-owned Harford County business committed to comfort and community.Send us a textVote for us hereEco-Cool HVACYOUR FRIEND IN THE SUMMERS & WINTERS!

In this episode of the ThoughtStretchers podcast, host Drew Perkins talks with Dr. Barbara Oakley, distinguished professor of engineering and co-instructor of the celebrated Learning How to Learn course, to discuss her critical opinion piece: Censorship Hurts Our Brains: Why Neuroscience Confirms the Importance of Free Speech. They dive deep into the neural mechanisms behind free expression, the challenges facing K-12 education, and the dangers of sacrificing liberty for perceived order. Links & Resources Mentioned In This Episode + Video Podcast Show Notes & Main Discussion Points: Neuroscience and Free Speech: Dr. Oakley explains that exposure to differing viewpoints is essential for cognitive flexibility and how emotional upset literally impedes rational thought when we engage with challenging ideas. The 'Cult of Safety': We examine how the modern pursuit of "safe spaces" can ironically lead to a heightened acceptance of hostility toward people with different political views. K-12 Education & Free Speech: We explore the difficulty of promoting civic thought in K-12, noting the tension between academic freedom and the need for interventions to overcome ineffective educational practices. Critique of Constructivism: Dr. Oakley argues that pure constructivism in education is "completely opposed... to neuroscience," and suggests a balanced "knowledge-rich inquiry" model, guided by Socratic questioning, as a more effective path to true learning. Order vs. Liberty: Finally, we discuss how a perceived loss of public safety and order can make a population more willing to compromise essential liberties, including free speech. Time-Stamped Highlights: The Neuroscience of Free Speech (00:07:01): Dr. Oakley explains how engaging with opposing viewpoints—especially through her free Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on the neurocognitive perspective of free speech—is vital for building cognitive flexibility. The Cult of Safety (00:20:17): Barbara Oakley discusses the "cult of safety" and how the swift transition from the pursuit of safe spaces to the acceptance of hostility toward people with differing political beliefs is a worrying trend. Emotional Upset vs. Rational Thought (00:23:15): A key takeaway from the neuroscience perspective is that emotional upset makes rational, conscientious engagement with an upsetting topic extremely difficult. The best approach is to manage emotions and seek to understand why people hold their beliefs. The Dilemma of K-12 Civic Education (00:10:59): Drew Perkins highlights the struggle to promote civic thought and enlightenment tradition principles in schools, noting that the lack of connection to test scores often pushes these initiatives aside. Government Intervention & 'Paradigm Cartels' (00:13:37): They discuss the tension between academic freedom and the occasional necessity of legislative intervention to overcome entrenched, ineffective beliefs in education, citing the "reading wars" and the mandate of phonics instruction as an example. The Dangers of Anti-Liberal Movements (00:30:52): Drew Perkins explores the growing "post-liberal and/or anti-liberal" movements on both the political right and left, expressing concern that these forces are dangerously pushing against the fundamental issue of free speech. Constructivism vs. Neuroscience (00:39:41): Dr. Oakley argues that the pervasive influence of pure constructivism in K-12 is "completely opposed... to neuroscience," citing negative learning outcomes in places like New Zealand, where a student-centered approach has been extensively applied. The Power of Knowledge-Rich Inquiry (00:45:29): They align on a knowledge-rich inquiry model, where a teacher uses Socratic questioning to narrow the "potential solution space," leading the student to the final 'aha' moment and strengthening the neural connection, which is a key part of effective teaching. Loss of Order and Compromising Liberty (00:38:40): The conversation concludes by linking the loss of public order and stability to a population's increased willingness to sacrifice liberties, like free speech, in exchange for a feeling of safety and for the metaphorical "trains to run on time."

A merely instinctual conservatism, exemplified by Hume, that lacks robust metaphysical and spiritual foundations, proves in the long run incapable of sustaining the institutions that built the West." In this episode, Dr. Orlandi sits with Dr. Zubia, Assistant Professor of Humanities at the Hamilton School for Classic and Civic Education at the University of Florida, to discuss what may be the true origin of the right's current political mess. While many want to "go back" to a better past, with healthier institutions and wholesome lives, most of us have also "done away" with the morality that sustained it all. The mission is thus bound to fail. By tuning in, you will learn more about Hume, about marriage as a case study, and about the importance of the liberal arts in the era of artificial intelligence.

In today's conversation, Dr. Melissa Moschella of the University of Notre Dame discusses the profound and practical implications of the parent-child relationship.

Twenty-four years after 9/11, America seems more divided than ever. Where did the "United We Stand" spirit go? In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano uncovers the forces driving America's cultural divide, a trend rooted in oikophobia where politicians and educators to media elites exhibit a disdain for their nation and our culture. He reveals the real-world consequences of this destructive trend and explains why embracing a new form of patriotism is the key to preserving our liberty. You'll hear about specific examples of this cultural self-destruction, from college campuses to Congress, and discover why reclaiming our identity is essential for America's survival. Episode Highlights How America's post-9/11 unity turned into today's deep political and cultural divisions. The real-world examples of how leaders and institutions are undermining American values. Why reclaiming patriotism and nationalism is the antidote to cultural self-destruction
