From the heinous crimes of the Epstein class to the Cornell 7, from the toxic cultures of the “manosphere” to the increase of antisocial relationships with online pornography and AI bots, we need to talk about what is going on with men in our society. We speak with renowned scholar, author, and commentator Dr. Mark Anthony Neal about his new book “Save a Seat for Me: Notes on American Fatherhood,” and about the ways capitalism damages everyone and trains boys to become monstrous men.Videography: Maximillian AlvarezPost-Production: Cameron GranadinoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

The American economy is hurtling toward a cliff, and the people steering the ship are stepping on the gas. Conservatives are getting punished by the voters for economic policies that are antithetical to what we believe. I'm joined by macroeconomist Tracy Shuchart of Ninja Trader to expose the reality of our stagflationary crisis — a debt-driven, heavily manipulated, "venture socialist" system that is masquerading as a free market and is being laughed at by the bond market. Tracy predicts that we will suffer “higher for longer” in terms of inflation and commodity prices. What happens when an economy built on debt, financialization, government intervention, and speculation gets blamed on capitalism? If the political Right continues to defend this economy as “capitalism,” conservatives risk taking ownership of a system that bears little resemblance to a genuine free market and will drive youngsters into the socialist camp.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Karl Marx famously declared that he was not a Marxist. But his theoretical work spawned many branches of research, political movements, and heated debate. Can we identify a set of unifying ideas that make up Marxism? On this latest episode of Confronting Capitalism, Vivek Chibber and Melissa Naschek look at the foundations of Marx's writing and explain how Marxism has both developed and degenerated over the past century.

Why does everything cost more while the quality keeps getting worse?That's the question behind this episode. We look at why your paycheck doesn't stretch as far, why buying a home is so much harder, and why so many things cost more while giving you less.From shrinkflation and CEO incentives to bailouts and crony capitalism, the bigger story is about the rules and incentives underneath the economy. And that leads to the final question: what changed about the money itself, and where does Bitcoin fit in?

In this episode of Liberty + Leadership, TFAS professor Anne Bradley guest hosts a conversation with Emma Camp, senior editor of The Wall Street Journal's “Free Expression” newsletter and a 2025 Robert Novak Fellow.Anne and Emma begin with Emma's viral video celebrating the “humble American supermarket” and what its shelves can teach us about economic freedom. They look at how global trade, competition and technological innovation produce an extraordinary variety of choices that can be easy to take for granted. The conversation then turns to why Emma believes there is a need for a more optimistic case for capitalism.They examine why capitalism is often blamed for problems created or worsened by government intervention, including housing shortages and rising costs, as well as rent control, state-run grocery stores, the tradeoffs behind expansive government programs and the “fixed pie” mentality that treats economic gains as a zero-sum contest.Emma also reflects on her own intellectual journey toward free-market ideas, her effort to make basic economic concepts accessible to younger audiences and how her TFAS Robert Novak Fellowship helped give her the time and freedom to work on her forthcoming book, “No Hard Feelings.”The Liberty + Leadership Podcast is hosted by TFAS president Roger Ream and produced by Podville Media.

The economic system of a country can be capitalistic, but the government shouldn't be. Capitalism serves the bottom line, governments serve people. They can balance each other. When one or the other becomes too strong, the people suffer. Where should the church fit in all of this? That's the question isn't it?

Scroll through social media these days, and you can easily get hit with a wave of overwhelming expectations around what you should be eating, how much you should be eating, how meals should be plated and styled perfectly for internet audiences, all while trying to make a living and stay afloat. But what happens if we pause from these narratives, and reframe our cooking experiences? Today's guest, Sonali Menezes, explores just that with me today. Sonali is an artist, zinester, and writer. She lives in Hamilton, Ontario with her husband, cat, and houseplants. She loves food, and eats it every day in celebration. Her first book, Depression Cooking: Feeding Yourself When It All Feels Too Hard, is out officially as of today through ECW Press.   In today's conversation, Sonali explores what it means to depression cook and how she structures her recipes to maintain accessibility for those navigating mental health, disabilities, and challenging phases of life, how messages around appetite and hunger in her younger years living in Scarborough and North York informed her anti-diet and approachable writing and recipe-crafting, how the art world she came up in understands eating (or not eating) and its relationship to her illustrations, and establishing gentler relationships with eating and cooking.     Resources: Instagram: @sonaleeeeeee Depression Cooking book

In this installment of Sacred Cows, I take a fresh and possibly first look at 'Die Hard', John McTiernan's action classic that I can't remember if I ever actually saw before.   It turns out there is plenty of subversive stuff going on beneath all the action, and it's no wonder that the film did such boffo box office...and also all the more disappointing that it went on to spawn such apparently uninspired sequels; something all the more ironic given the original film's general distaste for Capitalism, greed, and middle-manager icompetence. It ALSO turns out that the love story at the center of 'Die Hard' might just be a little more surprising than the film would at first blush own up to. Join me, won't you?? You know all the famous lines, but let's kick the tires on 'Die Hard' and find out if it's GOATed status is deserved...or deserving of a 40-story free fall off the Nakatomi Tower.

Live from Madrid (Sept 28, 2026) | Yaron Brook Show(Season 12, Episode 155)Watch now: https://youtube.com/live/sLrPRT7SZaAIf markets are pricing in "no adults in the room" on U.S. debt, mortgage rates are back above 7%, and Iran just got its president a seat at the UN mid-war — does anyone in Washington actually have a plan, or is everyone just improvising in public?Yaron Brook finally makes it to a webcam after a week bouncing between Tbilisi, Florence, and Madrid — and he's not easing back in gently. He opens with the story most people are ignoring: 10-year Treasury yields above 5.2%, 30-year above 5.5%, mortgages back over 7%, and a bond market that's stopped pretending anyone in Washington has a debt plan. Then he tears into Iran's latest fake offer to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, calls out Trump's red-carpet groveling to Xi, and makes the case that NVIDIA and a scrappy biotech startup — not government regulation — are the real answer to AI risk. Starship reached orbit. A Hamas operative got asylum in the UK. And somehow Netanyahu, for all his faults, still looks like the last adult in a room full of European politicians who'd rather cave than govern.Then the audience takes over: CPAs, career advice, zoning fights in your own backyard, whether men are really being "feminized," and why one European capital's mayor just switched parties. Unfiltered capitalism, individualism, and foreign policy — live, from a hotel room in Spain.Main Topics:00:00 — Live from Madrid: why there was no show for a week (Tbilisi, Florence, and Georgian hospitality)09:11 — The real story: 10-year yields above 5.2%, mortgages over 7%, and no adults in the room on U.S. debt14:55 — Why "deregulation + AI will save us" is a bipartisan fantasy36:12 — Iran's fake Hormuz reopening offer — and why oil above $100 tells the real story41:01 — A Hamas bodyguard was granted UK asylum, and Britain barely blinked58:36 — NVIDIA's OpenShell/Sentry and Red Queen Bio: AI is the answer to AI risk — and Starship reaches orbit1:44:16 — Why Netanyahu, for all his flaws, is still a giant next to Europe's leadersAudience Questions:1:07:24 — "How do I actually vet and trust a CPA before handing them my finances?"1:18:18 — Should your neighbor get to tear down a house and build multi-family housing next door?1:40:23 — Poland's mayor just became a Democrat — good sign or empty gesture?1:42:07 — Are men really being "feminized" in modern society — or is that the wrong word entirely?1:46:34 — Will Europe's tariff wars hand the next elections to the left?#InterestRates #IranNuclear #AIRegulation #Netanyahu #SpaceX #FreeSpeech #FirstAmendment #MarkZuckerberg #TrumpNews #FreeMarkets #Capitalism #Objectivism #AynRand #Anarchism #EconomicsExplainedLike this episode?Subscribe, share it with friends, and become a Patreon supporter to access monthly AMAs, exclusive content, and commercial-free audio.The Yaron Brook Show is Sponsored by[The Ayn Rand Institute](https://www.aynrand.org/starthere)[Energy Talking Points, featuring AlexAI, by Alex Epstein](https://alexepstein.substack.com/)[Express VPN](https://www.expressvpn.com/yaron)[Hendershott Wealth Management](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4lfC...) &(https://hendershottwealth.com/ybs/)[Michael Williams & The Defenders of Capitalism Project](https://www.DefendersOfCapitalism.com)[Support the Show]( / yaronbrookshow )[Sponsor the Show](askyaron@yaronbrookshow.com/)[One-time donation](https://bit.ly/2RZOyJJ)Join the [Yaron Brook Show YouTube channel]( / @yaronbrook )Like what you hear?

The effect of pornography on the people who consume it is often moralised about, generally due to its influence over the nascent sexuality of young men. But the business model, technological innovations and broader, parasexual, cultural effects go crucially underexamined. This week’s guest, investigative reporter for the Financial Times, Patricia Nilsson, has written a new book unearthing exactly the ways in which these underexamined forces emerged and how they continue to exert influence on society. She spoke to Ash about pioneering camgirl entrepreneurs, the sado-masochistic-inflected rise of Andrew Tate, and how algorithms have entered the bedroom.

A provocative examination of the ways our economy has been rigged by financialization, and the importance of games to our dangerous political moment. In an age when capitalism feels like an unwinnable game, extreme reactionary ideas and politics are on the rise. The Hunger Games, Game of Thrones, Squid Game and much of reality TV are cultural reflections of a society of relentless, lonely competition, where each of us must become a player: a savvy risk-taker, a miniature corporation of one. But in a gamed economy we players feel played, and new forms of fascism promise harsh justice and revenge. This book theorizes the connections between the financialization of the capitalist economy, the gamification of our lives, and the rising threat of a uniquely twenty-first century form of fascistic politics. From vicious online swarmings to the QAnon conspiracy fantasy, from the siege of the US Capitol to the abuse of “free speech,” The Player and the Played: From Gamed Capitalism to 21st-Century Fascism with Max Haiven (MIT Press, 2026) analyzes the “playgrom” as a new form of extremist violence. Max Haiven explores how “derivative fascisms” both repeat and reinvent the terrors of the past in a financialized form. How have we learned to love the cheats who have power but loathe the cheats without it? It unpacks the worldbuilding (and world-destroying) urge of Silicon Valley. And it poses the urgent question: what is the antifascist game?Rudolf Thomas Inderst (*1978) enjoys video games since the early 1980s. He received a master's degree in political science, American cultural studies as well as contemporary and recent history from Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich and holds three PhDs in game studies (LMU Munich, University of Passau & University of Vechta). Currently, he's teaching as a professor for game design and game studies at the University of Applied Sciences Neu-Ulm HNU, Germany, holds the position as lead editor at the online journal TITEL kulturmagazin for the game section, and is editor of the weekly game research newsletter Game Studies Watchlist.

1877Plantation Capitalism Expands Across AmericaDaniel Rood, author of In the Shadow of the Great House: A History of the Plantation in America, Part One: Rood traces the origin and evolution of plantation capitalism, beginning with 17th-century sugar production in Barbados and moving to Carolina rice plantations. He demonstrates how wealthy planters combined capital, manufacturing, and brutal labor exploitation to generate massive profit margins on cash crops. The discussion highlights early legal codes linking race to permanent enslavement, the strategic use of enslaved labor during the American Revolution, and persistent economic violence extending into California cotton fields.

X: @Former_Soviet @ileaderssummit @americasrt1776 @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk @JTitMVirginia Join America's Roundtable radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with Vladimir Jaffe, an American entrepreneur and a proponent of freedom and capitalism based on the rule of law. Vladimir Jaffe is owner of Palace Imports and a board member of Israel Justice Organization. Vladimir Jaffe is a former Soviet citizen with a master's degree in chemical engineering. In the USSR, he was active in Jewish circles, dissident movements, and international media—at significant personal risk—and was interrogated at KGB headquarters in 1985. He emigrated to the United States in 1988 at the age of 29 and is now a successful American entrepreneur. Vladimir Jaffe reveals the realities of what it was like to have lived in communism and socialism from his own experiences. Over the years, a new generation of Americans are favoring socialism with an awe of communism over capitalism. Our conversation focuses on the surge of socialism in America - an ideology and political system that has devastated economies around the world and forced people to leave their lands for free and prosperous countries like the United States. Gallup's latest survey, released September 23, 2026, found that among Americans ages 18–34, 57% have a positive view of socialism, compared with 43% who have a positive view of capitalism. Among Americans 55 and older, the pattern is reversed: 65% view capitalism positively and 34% view socialism positively. Vladimir Jaffe is the owner of U.S. based Palace Imports, that provides 100% solid wood furniture: https://www.palaceimportsinc.com The company specializes in 100 percent solid wood furniture sourced from Africa, Europe, South America, and Mexico, sold online through retailers such as Macy's, Wayfair, Walmart, Bed Bath & Beyond and Overstock and others. Since becoming a U.S. citizen in 1993, Vladimir has remained politically active and is deeply involved in supporting Jewish organizations and initiatives. Vladimir Jaffe is one of the newest leadership members of International Leaders Summit, the parent organization of America's Roundtable. Vladimir serves on the Executive Advisory Board. He is dedicated supporter of America's conservative movement and the vision articulated by President Donald Trump in advancing freedom and reforms based on the rule of law. Vladimir Jaffe has a YouTube site with over 75,000 subscribers. | https://www.youtube.com/@VladimirJaffe/videos americasrt.com https://ileaderssummit.org/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @Former_Soviet @ileaderssummit @americasrt1776 @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk @JTitMVirginia America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

In light of the long, highly individualistic New York Times Magazine essay by Nicole Hannah-Jones about her regret over putting her child in public elementary and middle schools, the real history behind what we call "school choice" today was not explained.If it had been, the essay wouldn't have focused on the impact on just her daughter, or the silly idea of changing the entire foundationally unjust education system from the inside, one child at a time. So let's talk about the history that explains what the author of The 1619 Project oddly did not, but certainly should have, if she weren't making this centuries-long, continued, and intentional injustice all about her choices and the impacts on her child alone.Either we are going to fight for ALL our children to be treated equally and live free, or we're going to continue pretending to be rugged individualistic capitalists with none of the actual power to change anything about our exploitative conditions.You can find the video or article for this episode and more on Patreon, Substack, and YouTube.

Live from San Francisco, we sit down with Tim Draper, the venture capitalist who wrote early checks into Tesla, SpaceX, Skype, Coinbase, Twitch and more than 20 unicorns. He was the first investor to say yes to Robinhood after its founders heard 25 no's, he bet on Bitcoin when almost nobody knew what it was, and he holds a Guinness World Record for hearing 52 startup pitches in 52 minutes while sitting in a cold plunge.Tim reveals the one question he asks every founder before writing a check, why he kept betting on SpaceX after watching its rockets blow up three times, and what happened when a self-driving car he was testing swerved into oncoming traffic. Plus how he lost his first Bitcoin in the Mt. Gox collapse, the condition he put on Robinhood's founders before investing, the industries he says AI will disrupt next, and his one piece of advice for building the next billion-dollar business.0:00 - Intro: Tim Draper Live in San Francisco3:48 - Tim Draper's Guinness World Record: 52 Startup Pitches in a Cold Plunge5:40 - Meet the Drapers: Why Tim Draper Became His Own Media Company9:48 - What Tim Draper Looks for Before Writing a Venture Capital Check12:20 - Why Tim Draper Looks for Controversial Startups13:20 - How Tim Draper Backed Tesla and SpaceX Before Elon Was Elon15:35 - SpaceX Rockets Blew Up 3 Times: Why Tim Draper Kept Betting19:10 - How Tim Draper Bet on Bitcoin Before Almost Anyone23:40 - Tim Draper's Bitcoin Prediction: Inflation, Debt and the Halving26:50 - Why Tim Draper Was Robinhood's First Investor After 25 Rejections28:45 - The Industries Tim Draper Says AI Will Disrupt Next32:30 - How to Invest Like a Venture Capitalist in the Public Stock Market34:50 - Tim Draper's Case for Capitalism and Free Markets39:15 - Why Tim Draper Says Not to Fear AI Taking Your Job44:30 - Rapid Fire: Tim Draper's Favorite Brand and Stock Ticker46:10 - Takeaway: How to Build a Billion-Dollar BusinessNEWSLETTER:https://tboypod.com/newsletter OUR 2ND SHOW:Want more business storytelling from us?

Watch on YouTube Frankie Wilmot didn't grow up in trucking — he married into it. A former finance guy, Frankie became CEO of Corcoran Transportation Group about four years ago, right as the industry was heading into one of its worst downturns in history. In this conversation, he takes us through the full story: two cousins who started competing trucking companies in Billings, Montana back in the 1960s, a business that split apart across a generation, and how it came back together into one operation running roughly 150 trucks across four specialized fleets — including an Alaska division that runs freight up ice roads to Prudhoe Bay. Frankie gets into what it actually took to consolidate four separate companies (four payrolls, four software systems, four everything) into one organization, why unfiltered growth kills more trucking companies than it saves, and how staying diversified across freight types has kept the business steady even when individual segments slow down. He also opens up about the challenge of leading a business he joined by marriage rather than blood, why 176 people depending on the company keeps him up at night in a good way, and why he believes truck drivers are the most underappreciated workers in the country.  Chapters: 0:00 – Intro: Meet Frankie Wilmot, CEO of Corcoran Transportation Group 0:51 – The History of the Corcoran Family Business 2:29 – Inside the Fleet: Four Divisions, 150 Trucks  4:06 – Billings, Montana & Where They Run 7:54 – The Business Behind the Freight: Grain, Doubles & More 9:28 – From Finance to Trucking: What Changed 11:46 – Trucking as the Backbone of Capitalism 13:14 – Family, Employees & Consolidating Four Companies Into One 15:41 – Lessons on Scaling & Avoiding Growth for Growth's Sake 22:06 – Drivers, Shops & How the Business Runs Day to Day 27:53 – Family, Faith & the Alaska Operation 33:00 – Why Truckers Are the Backbone of America

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the crew returns to discuss the 2026 Boots Riley film, "I Love Boosters." The film follows a group of shoplifters (aka boosters) who take aim at a cutthroat fashion maven by stealing her clothes and reselling them at a lower price, what they call "fashion-forward philanthropy." Narrative overtones of anti-capitalism, push back on the moderate political establishment, the fashion industries exploitation of both its customer base but also the worker creating the products in far off nations for pennies on the dollar. Does Boots Riley's film balance his unique style, in this case, extremely bright colors and an almost anime like aesthetic with a story worth its two hour runtime? The film stars Keke Palmer, Lakeith Stansfield, Naomi Ackie, Taylor Paige, Will Poulter, and Demi Moore.Black on Black Cinema is a long-running podcast featuring in-depth Black movie reviews and frank conversations that matter to the Black community. We review Black films across every genre — from Black horror and Black sci-fi to indie dramas, comedies, and blockbuster action. Covering filmmakers like Spike Lee, Jordan Peele, Ryan Coogler, Ava DuVernay, and more. Hosted by Jay, Micah, Terrence, and T'ara. Featured on RogerEbert.com. A TNP Studios production.

This November will see an increased number of democratic party nominees for high office either being endorsed outright by the Democratic Socialists of America, or at least being somewhat in sympathy with their views. While it's uncertain how much of an impact the DSA's influence will have on the outcome in November, the movement appears to be gaining momentum. FOX Business' David Asman joins the FOX News Rundown: Evening Edition to dissect the far-left movement's growing influence and the escalating debate over free-market capitalism versus government control. Asman breaks down the historical record of socialist policies versus free-market capitalism, explaining how past economic failures contrast sharply with modern political rhetoric targeted at younger generations. He exposes the reality behind DSA platforms—including proposal price tags ranging from $70 trillion to $200 trillion. Plus, Asman previews his FOX Business special, "FOX Business in Depth: Socialism Threat and the Future of Capitalism," examining how mainstream politicians are shifting left to court socialist voters ahead of upcoming elections.

As support for Democratic Socialists grows around the country, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has launched a “Free Enterprise Express” bus tour to educate Americans on free market capitalism. President and CEO of the Chamber Suzanne Clark discusses the marketing of capitalism and its support–and frustrations–across the nation. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-California) discusses the fractures within his own party, including the rising popularity of DSA and growing discontent with the billionaires in his own district, Silicon Valley. Plus, President Trump said he's in support of a full or partial ban on diesel exports, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent could be the next White House AI czar, and the Trump administration has removed about 760,000 Obamacare enrollments, alleging fraud.

In this episode, the hosts discuss thinking biblically about human flourishing, arguing that democratic republican government and capitalism have historically enabled the church's mission by generating wealth and freedom to send missionaries and fund global ministries. They contend that democratic socialism and communism are largely godless, emphasize state control over individuals, weaken personal responsibility and labor, and often align with pro-abortion policies, framing this as a broader pursuit of power traced to the Garden of Eden. The conversation connects Western political and economic development to the Reformation, literacy, the Gutenberg press, Puritan work ethic, and theological ideas that influenced America's founding, while acknowledging capitalism's imperfections and America's historical failures. They call for informed Christian engagement, prayer for societal peace, and using any continued opportunity for the gospel to flourish.

In this episode, the growing fear among top AI executives like Dario Amodei and Sam Altman that artificial intelligence may need to be slowed down—not just because it could annihilate humanity, but because it might also destroy capitalism itself by eliminating the very workers, innovators, and entrepreneurs the system depends on. Also, the Houthis' strategic capture of the Bab el-Mandeb strait, a critical waterway that has sent oil prices soaring, strained U.S. imperial power, and prompted desperate measures like Trump urging Zelensky to stop attacking Russian oil refineries.

He built Magna International into one of the world's largest auto parts companies, with hundreds of factories and well over a hundred thousand employees. But the real story isn't the company's size. It's what he did with the profits. Instead of keeping them at the top, he split them with the people on the floor. Today's guest is Frank Stronach, founder of Magna and the mind behind the Economic Charter of Rights, the profit-sharing model that made it happen. We get into the handshake deal that started it all, why he walked away from a $40 billion company to go all in on farming and horse racing, and the succession plan he built so his own family's fortune doesn't end up like most family businesses do.
