Podcast appearances and mentions of helen andrews

Attentive listeners will notice that this episode is about a book but isn't an author interview. That's because it's the first in a new occasional series of episodes that will be dedicated to books by conservative writers that we think are important — whether because a book articulates the right's approach to an issue or problem in an especially revealing way, influenced or galvanized the conservative movement when it was published, or, with the benefit of hindsight, has proven to be prescient about where the right, and perhaps the country, were heading. Many of these books will be from decades past, but our first selection is more recent: Christopher Caldwell's 2020 broadside against the 1964 Civil Rights Act and what it wrought, The Age of Entitlement: America Since the Sixties. Caldwell argues that the apparatus created by civil rights legislation and the federal courts in the 1960s amounted to a new, second constitution that displaced the one Americans had lived under since the founding, one that jettisoned traditional liberties like freedom of association and replaced democratic self-government with rule by bureaucrats, lawyers, and judges. Who has access to these new levers of power? Not the working class whites who are neither a favored racial or ethnic minority — a person of color — nor a member of the progressive elites who preside over the new regime. Much of The Age of Entitlement is dedicated to tracing the effects of civil rights legislation when it comes to the causes that arose in its wake: feminism, immigrant rights, gay marriage, and more. But the book is equally a brutal examination of the legacy of the Baby Boom generation (and, by extension, Ronald Reagan, whose presidency they powered), that most "entitled" of generations, whom Caldwell deplores for wanting to have their cake and eat it, too. Boomers, in Caldwell's telling, refused to straightforwardly reject the second constitution and its distributional demands, while also insisting petulantly, again and again, on having their taxes cut. We explore these topics and more, and end with a discussion of where Caldwell leaves the reader — and where we're at now, in light of the challenge he poses to both conservatives and the left.Sources:Christopher Caldwell, The Age of Entitlement: America Since the Sixties (2020)— Reflections on the Revolution In Europe: Immigration, Islam and the West (2009)Helen Andrews, "The Law That Ate the Constitution," Claremont Review of Books, Winter 2020Timothy Crimmins, "America Since the Sixties: A History without Heroes," American Affairs, Summer 2020Perry Anderson, "Portents of Eurabia," The National, Aug 27, 2009. ...and don't forget to subscribe to Know Your Enemy on Patreon for access to all of our bonus episodes!

Pose, Paws, Pounce, Bounce - School dogs and wellbeing I am joined by Maxine Howells (former headteacher) and Helen Andrews (teaching assistant) talking all about school dogs.

In this week's episode of the Center for Immigration Studies' Parsing Immigration Policy podcast, the senior editor at The American Conservative, Helen Andrews, delves into the topic of high-skilled immigration and its political, economic, and cultural implications. Andrews, alongside podcast host and the Center's executive director Mark Krikorian, describes how the H-1B foreign worker program, originally designed to attract highly-skilled workers, has been transformed into a means for outsourcing American jobs and undercutting the wages of American workers.The H-1B visa program is a temporary, non-immigrant program for people in “specialty occupations” tied to a specific employer. Annually, 85,000 new H-1B visa holders enter the U.S., with an estimated 500,000 residing in the country at any given time.In her recent article, Farewell, H-1Bs, Andrews responds to the tech lobbyists' argument that H-1B workers are leaving for Canada due to long green card waiting times in the US. Even without job offers, Canada is offering permanent residency. Andrews writes “H-1B visa holders are not the world's best and brightest, so Canada is welcome to them.”Andrews also sheds light on Australia's successful approach to tackling illegal immigration. Drawing from her decade-long experience living in Australia, she recounts how the country effectively curbed illegal immigration through stringent policies. Under the leadership of former Prime Minister Tony Abbott, the country demonstrated that political will and strict enforcement can secure borders.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestHelen Andrews is the Senior Editor at The American Conservative.RelatedFarewell, H-1Bs - The American ConservativeCanada Offers Easy Entry to 10,000 H-1B Visa HoldersH-1B Visa Program: Myths and Needed ReformsFollowFollow Parsing Immigration Policy on Ricochet, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts.Intro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

HEADLINE: Why South Africa's Collapse Finally Came Down to Eskom by Helen Andrews  Question #1 - Why is ONE utility company in charge of power for 40,000 people? Because the government in Africa says that is how it is going to be. Load Shedding = rolling blackouts  De Ruyter was Eskom's last, best hope. The board is not likely to find another CEO with the competence to handle this impossible job and the willingness to undertake it at the risk of death. The criminal forces that harried De Ruyter throughout his tenure will most likely now carry on their predations free of any remaining obstacles, enriching themselves until there is nothing left to loot. The dominos that would fall in the case of a total grid collapse start with phone lines, internet, and traffic lights, and end with looting, crime, and civil unrest. Why Eskom? Because it sits at the intersection of the three themes of South Africa's long decline: politics, incompetence, and crime. Go read Ilana Mercer's Into the Cannibals Pot  Their pie in the sky solar panels etc just isn't working for South Africa.

If you need to have your perspective recalibrated from time to time, there's nothing quite like taking the time to appreciate all the little things that make life great. Art Carden has a marvelous piece on the the symphonies of cooperation that take place daily to keep us fed, clothed and sheltered. The worst part of the various restrictions on our lives and freedoms is that the people calling for them insist that this is all being done "for our own good." TE Creus wonders why big government and big buiness are pretending that they are our strict but caring parents and we're just a bunch of unruly children in need of their guidance. For folks who are paying attention, there's a growing shortage of plastic products. Peter C. Earle warns that Hurricane Ida may have just set the global plastic market back even further. The principle that underlies the hesitation so many feel toward taking the Covid vaccine is a principle of personal autonomy called informed consent. As William Sullivan explains, informed consent is being transformed into coercion of the uninformed. You can't stand for your rights if you don't know them. Given the number of people who've been vaccinated who still become infected, vaccine passports seem like a pretty useless idea. Nevertheless, according to Helen Andrews, the U.S. government is plowing ahead full steam to implement them. This is one of the places where we can draw a line and say "no." If anyone has the right to say, "I told you so" it would be Michael Snyder. He has been warning of our nation's alarming change in direction toward dictatorship for many years. In his most recent column he makes another point worth considering--this thing isn't going to correct itself. We have to quit playing along. Each week Eric Peters from EP Autos drops by to give his take on the passing scene. This week we touch on how the government "saves" us money, who killed the electric car that worked and why you should trust your instincts to never do what government is insisting you do. www.thebryanhydeshow.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/loving-liberty/support

Donald Trump was the fourth member of the baby boomer generation to be elected president, after Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. The Senate majority leader, Chuck Schumer, is a boomer. Chief Justice John Roberts is a boomer. The Federal Reserve chair, Jerome Powell, is a boomer. President Joe Biden and Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Senate minority leader, Mitch McConnell, were born a few years too early to officially qualify as boomers, but they’re close. We’re living in the world the boomers and nearly boomers built, and are still building.This is not, to younger Americans, a comfort. One 2018 poll found that just over half of millennials said that boomers made things worse for their generation; only 13 percent said they made things better. Then there was the rise of the “OK Boomer” meme in 2019, an all-purpose dismissal of boomer politics and rhetoric. But the boomers are a vast group, as are all generations. So is this a useful category for political argument? And even if it is, what, precisely, is it that the boomers did wrong?Jill Filipovic is a journalist, former lawyer and the author of “OK Boomer, Let’s Talk: How My Generation Got Left Behind,” a primarily economic critique of the boomer generation from the left. Helen Andrews is a senior editor at The American Conservative and author of “Boomers: The Men and Women Who Promised Freedom and Delivered Disaster,” a searing cultural critique of the boomers from the right.Filipovic and Andrews, both of whom are millennials (as am I), agree that the boomers left our generation worse off; but they disagree on just about everything else, which makes this conversation all the more interesting. We discuss the value of generational analysis, the legacy of the sexual revolution, the impact of boomer economic policies, the decline of the nuclear family, the so-called millennial sex recession, the millennial affordability crisis, the impact of pornography, how much the critique of the boomers is really a critique of technological change and much more.References: American Compass survey on family preferences "The share of Americans not having sex has reached a record high"  by Christopher Ingraham "The Rise of Childless America"  by Lyman Stone Jill’s recommendations: The Culture of Narcissism by Christopher LaschCan't Even by Anne Helen PetersenGoodnight Moon by Margaret Wise BrownHelen’s recommendations: A Tale of Two Utopias by Paul Berman Coming of Age on Zoloft by Katherine SharpeA Book of Americans by Stepehen Vincent Benét Thoughts?

Helen Andrews’ fabulously acidic book Boomers has earned a rousing enough recommendation from me that I decided to feature her as the first guest in the newly revived M. Tracey podcast series, now hosted on Substack. Previously I’d been averse to demarcating political conflict by generational lines, but this book has spicily dispelled any lingering apprehension I had in that regard. There’s plenty of cancellable material in here if you’re inclined to be scandalized — an apologia for the virtues of old-style European empire, a counter-intuitive ode to the savvy of Al Sharpton, numerous bitter pills to swallow on the failures of American imperial hegemony and modern feminism, etc. Mysteriously though, Helen reports not yet having been canceled — which raises the question of whether she’s immunized by dint of already being a hardened conservative, and therefore not susceptible to demands for her to grovelingly repudiate herself. Or maybe it’s just because the potentially-scandalized lack the attention span to get through the book, which would be in keeping with her general thesis of boomer violence upon our collective cognitive faculties. Hope you enjoy the conversation. Get full access to Michael Tracey at mtracey.substack.com/subscribe

Jeremy sits down with Helen Andrews this week on Givers, Doers, & Thinkers. Helen Andrews is a senior editor at The American Conservative. She has worked at the Washington Examiner and National Review, and as a think tank researcher at the Centre for Independent Studies in Sydney, Australia. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies from Yale University. Her work has appeared in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, First Things, Claremont Review of Books, Hedgehog Review, and elsewhere.Jeremy dives right into Helen's new book, BOOMERS: The Men and Women Who Promised Freedom and Delivered Disaster.

Democrats are much closer to passing the nearly $2 trillion relief package President Joe Biden has proposed. A Republican pitch for a much smaller package doesn’t look to be going anywhere. The White House says doing too little is way riskier than doing too much, but economist Larry Summers is worried the package is too big and will endanger efforts to spend later on infrastructure. Who is right? Josh Barro talks with Megan McArdle and David Dayen about that, Senator Romney’s proposal for a child benefits package, and special guest Helen Andrews makes the conservative anti-Boomer case.

A lively evisceration of the worst generation in American history. To know the past is to grasp how to change the future. (The written version of this review can be found here.)

Helen Andrews provides some historical perspective on the choice Americans must make this November—between two styles of dictator, the personalist (Trump) and the clientelist (Clinton). She looks back on the last president who combined these two styles, as an illustration of how momentous a dictatorial presidency can be. Then, Matthew Walther previews a new edition of T. H. White’s “The Once and Future King,” a novel that contains more metaphysics, and less fantasy, than you think. Finally, Walther takes aim at E. B. White (no relation), explaining why “Elements of Style” is overrated and the passive voice is underrated.

Andrew, Alastair, and Derek discuss Helen Andrews's essay on the shape of our society's new aristocracy, their responsibilities, and how we should respond in light of them.
