Podcasts about Culture war

Despite gutting staff and complaining about “woke programming and anti-American drag shows” at the Kennedy Center, the center's show roster is full of drag! Then, to combat June PRIDE, a group of Ohio GOP legislators have come up with Natural Family Month to celebrate male led households with a woman and children. No single parents, divorcees, or same-sex parents allowed. Finally, burger chain In-N-Out is changing some recipes to include organic ingredients and natural dues versus processed and synthetic petroleum-based additives. Not a bad idea in our opinion.

Peachy Keenan, author of Domestic Extremist: A Practical Guide to Winning the Culture War joins Stigall to discuss the secret life of women leading traditional lives as worshipers, mothers, and wives as their priority while the world of secular women turns increasingly hostile to it. What's going on? Then, while young men are trending more conservative - many able-bodied men ages 20-40 are sitting out of the work force, working part time - if at all and collecting welfare checks. What's happened to the dignity of work with men? Nicholas Eberstadt, author of "Men Without Work" explains what's happening. A the brilliant historian Anton Chaitkin walks us through some history of our nation in his new book "Who We Are: America's Fight for Universal Progress."

Domestic politics during the US war in Vietnam are often noted for the extreme divisions between Right and Left, between doves and hawks, and between whites and non-whites. But as Joseph Darda argues in his book, How White Men Won the Culture Wars: A History of Veteran America (University of California Press, 2021), the War in Vietnam helped heal divisions among white men. It created what he calls, “a white racial reunion” that allowed white men to see themselves through the image of the Vietnam War veteran: forgotten and not valued. Of course, not all veterans are white, and not all (or even most) white men are veterans, but as Darda shows the image of the Vietnam War veteran was made to stand in for a range of grievances held by white men. Using a diverse set of texts, from the DSM III to college writing programs to the music of Bruce Springsteen and the movies of Sylvester Stallone, Darda shows how the cultural products of the post-Vietnam War era worked to create an image of white men who were victims of the war, of an uncaring society, and a government that betrayed them. This book is important not just for scholars interested in the US war in Vietnam and its domestic aftermath but also helps us understand contemporary attitudes and political developments involving racial politics, affirmative action/DEI, and how we understand the current generation of veterans from so-called Wars on Terror. Joesph Darda is an Associate Professor of English at Michigan State University. He has previously been interviewed on New Books Network about his book The Strange Career of Racial Liberalism. https://newbooksnetwork.com/th... Learn more about your ad choices.

Chris speaks with researcher and author Ross Downing about his book Germanic and Slavic Paganism: Security Threats and Resiliency. Ross, who works with a network of scholars and specialists focused on minority religions and extremism, explores how modern pagan traditions, particularly those rooted in Germanic and Slavic identity, are increasingly weaponized by extremist movements on both sides of the Ukraine War. From the myth of the warrior ideal to the role of neo-paganism in Russian special forces and the Azov movement, Ross unpacks the ideological messiness, spiritual camouflage, and social vulnerabilities that make these belief systems ripe for radicalization. They also discuss the “folkish vs. inclusive” divide, the algorithm's role in spreading conspiratorial spirituality, and why mainstream institutions need to step up—not just to contain extremism, but to support resilient, non-violent expressions of cultural identity.

In this explosive segment, the hosts dissect two major stories shaking the political and cultural landscape. First, they cover the Supreme Court's critical 7-2 decision to uphold free speech after Maine legislator Laura Libby was censured and stripped of her voting rights for naming a transgender athlete—information already publicized by the media. The case raises alarming concerns over silencing dissent, especially when it involves defending women's rights in sports. Then, the discussion pivots to Washington's out-of-control spending, revealing $852 billion still allocated to the Green New Deal through 2035 despite Republican promises to cut it. As U.S. credit ratings hit historic downgrades and national debt balloons toward $47 trillion, the hosts argue that true conservatism is vanishing—replaced by bipartisan budget bloat and economic denial. A must-listen for anyone concerned about free speech, fiscal sanity, and the future of the republic.

In this wide-ranging and unfiltered Friday segment, Tara and Lee riff on everything from Kid Rock's viral critique of liberal protestors to navigating teen dating in a divided America. Tara shares a candid story about convincing her 13-year-old son to attend church camp—to "scope the honeys"—as a strategy for finding like-minded, conservative girls. The conversation veers into pop culture, with jabs at Bruce Springsteen's overseas comments on Trump, and frustration over what they see as leftist dominance in entertainment and values. With colorful listener texts and off-the-cuff banter, the episode dives into generational divides, political dating pools, and the importance of raising kids with intention in a changing cultural landscape.

We have a pope and he's American! Cardinal Robert Prevost from Chicago is now Pope Leo XIV, and his connection to The Holy Post is closer than anyone imagined. Phil, Skye, and Kaitlyn discuss reactions to the new Pope and the significance of his name. Katelyn Beaty is back to discuss the evolution of the Q Conference, led by Gabe and Rebekah Lyons. Why has an event that started almost 20 years ago with a positive vision of Christian cultural engagement for the common good now shifted to embrace the culture war? And what does it reveal about larger changes within American evangelicalism? Also this week—The Trump administration is accepting refugees into the U.S. again (as long as they are white), the Quakers are on the move, caterpillar flair, and baby girl Bible names.

This episode is pure cultural gasoline. Tower Gang dives headfirst into the viral chaos surrounding Toad's controversial cover and the explosive reactions from both fans and haters. We unpack the meltdown from internet mobs, discuss the power of memes in moving culture, and explore the thin line between performance and persecution. Then things go full-blown esoteric: we break down Timothy Albarino's wild alien abduction theories, Nephilim DNA, demonic technology, and why your grandma's Masonic lodge might've cursed your entire bloodline. Clint's descent into Book of Enoch madness begins here. Also: Trump's new “self-deportation” program, libertarian rage, immigrant drones, and why it might be time to rewrite the Bible (again).

On this episode of Chicks on the Right, we're hanging out with Newsmax's Carl Higbie—former Navy SEAL and all-around straight shooter. He shares how he knew he wanted to be a SEAL as a kid, what it was really like in the military, and how the red tape and politics eventually pushed him into media.We dig into the challenges facing military recruitment, the growing influence of woke politics in the ranks, and what inspired Carl to write not just one, but FIVE books. The conversation also covers how gender identity debates intersect with national defense, the role Pete Hegseth and recent Supreme Court rulings might play, the cultural pushback against traditional masculinity, and the buzz around a potential Trump military parade.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they take time to discuss all things related to the pope in light of the recent death of Pope Francis at the age of 88. He served as the head of the Catholic Church for 12 years, and his death certainly sparked a media storm. So this episode takes time to explore the history of the office of the pope, how future popes are elected through the process of the conclave, and more. Episode Links Dr. White mentioned the attention that the 2024 movie Conclave, has been getting, particularly since Pope Francis passed away. Holly Meyer wrote an article recently for Associated Press News titled, “So you saw ‘Conclave' the movie. Here's what it got right – and wrong – about real-life conclaves.” You can read that article HERE. And then, if this episode sparked an interest in learning more about the papacy, here are a number of articles we'd suggest you check out: “What are the Catholic Church's rites after the death of a pope and the election of a new one?” Los Angeles Times. Russell Moore, “A US Evangelical Considers Pope Francis,” Christianity Today. Olivia B. Waxman, “Pope Francis, the ‘World's Parish Priest' Who Led in an Era of Crisis, Dies at 88,” Time. Joel Hodge and Antonia Pizzey, “Pope Francis has died, aged 88. These were his greatest reforms – and controversies,” The Conversation. Thomas Reese, “Why the synod on synodality is confusing to American Catholics,” National Catholic Reporter. “Sede vacante: What happens now, and who is in charge?” The Pillar. Greta Cross, “Conclave smoke: What black and white smoke signal during election of a new pope,” USA Today. Colleen Barry, “Tens of thousands file into St. Peter's Basilica to pay final respects to Pope Francis,” AP News. Ross Douthat, “Can the Catholic Church Quit the Culture Wars?” The New York Times. Marc Ramirez, “Pope Francis was the first Jesuit pope of the Catholic Church. What is a Jesuit?” USA Today. Matthew Walther, “The Real Legacy of Pope Francis,” The Atlantic.

Why Marx was rightHaving fallen out of favour around the turn of the century, Marxism is now back in fashion, often playing the role of an alternative to the increasingly right-wing politics of the modern world.

Mike Hixenbaugh first knew things had changed when someone on a four-wheeler started ripping up his lawn after his wife placed a Black Lives Matter sign outside their home on the suburban outskirts of Houston.Hixenbaugh is an award-winning investigative reporter for NBC News. He's covered wrongdoing within the child welfare system, safety lapses inside hospitals, and deadly failures in the US Navy. But when his front yard was torn apart in the summer of 2020 in the wake of the George Floyd protests, he saw a story about race and politics collide at his own front door. So like any investigative journalist, he started investigating, and his reporting about the growing divides in his neighborhood soon led him to the public schools.As more than a dozen states sue the Trump administration over its policies aimed at ending public schools' diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, More To The Story host Al Letson talks with Hixenbaugh about how America's public schools have become “a microcosm” for the country's political and cultural fights—“a way of zooming in deep into one community to try to tell the story of America.”Producer: Josh Sanburn | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Digital producer: Nikki Frick | Interim executive producers: Brett Myers and Taki Telonidis | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al LetsonListen: The Culture War Goes to College (Reveal)Read: At the Heritage Foundation, the Anti-DEI Crusade Is Part of a Bigger War (Mother Jones)Read: They Came for the Schools: One Town's Fight Over Race and Identity, and the New War for America's Classrooms, by Mike HixenbaughNote: If you buy a book using our Bookshop link, a small share of the proceeds supports our journalism.Listen: Southlake/Grapevine podcasts (NBC News) Donate today at Revealnews.org/more Subscribe to our weekly newsletter at Revealnews.org/weekly Follow us on Instagram @revealnews Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

In this wide-ranging and fiery edition of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Burning Bright wade deep into the cultural, political, and narrative battles shaping our present reality. Kicking off with a dive into the mainstream media's desperate attempts to frame the UFC as a hotbed of “deplorable” masculinity, the hosts explore how the promotion's unapologetically anti-woke ethos has made it a narrative battleground, and why Trump's walk-ins at events hit harder than any punch in the octagon. From there, they shift into economic brinkmanship, trade war chess, and Trump's masterful narrative manipulation using tariffs as leverage. The hosts dissect a flurry of global developments, from Putin's strategic “capitulation” in Ukraine (which aligns eerily well with Trump's three-year-old peace plan) to Europe's economic collapse and the populist uprising it's igniting. They also unravel the deeper meaning of what it takes to wage narrative warfare, questioning whether we're watching a scripted resolution or an ongoing, real battle against rogue state actors. And yes, they roast the idea of Bill Maher and the establishment media taking a redemption lap, labeling it a tactical "hibernation" strategy to outlast Trump and sneak back into relevance. Packed with sharp commentary, personal anecdotes (including dead animals in walls and sword lore), and unapologetic truth bombs, this episode is both an information dump and a call to vigilance. Buckle up...the narrative is shifting, and DPH is here to help you decode it.
