Podcast appearances and mentions of James Lindsay

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 162 We hear a lot these days about the foreign aid money the United States sends to Israel, but most people don't know how that money works. Now, we see Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calling to wind down and terminate that foreign aid deal, which operates under a "Memorandum of Understanding" agreement, while President Trump seems less happy about it. Why would Israel want out and Trump be unhappy? The reason is that the arrangement helps Israel in a strategic way but primarily benefits America and Americans, exactly the opposite of what we hear in the propaganda. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay goes through some of the details of the enormous return on investment that money has been bringing to America and how it works.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 207 Radical ideologies have many things in common. Among them, it increasingly seems apparent, is a psychological structure that can only be described as psychopathological. In this groundbreaking episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay explores the interesting idea that perhaps what these radical ideologies are all ultimately answering is a profound sense of humiliation (without humility). By surveying ideologies ranging from Russian weirdo Aleksandr Dugin's "geopolitics" and "neo-Eurasianism," to Nazism, to Fascism, to Islamism, to Communism, to Neo-Marxism, to Third Worldism, to Woke, both Left and Right, Lindsay makes a convincing case that these ideologies are pseudoscientific mythologies organized to provide therapy to the humiliated psyche, thus their destructiveness. Using the model, he also offers an answer and a bright ray of hope for a light to lead us out of this darkness. Join him for an eye-opening discussion.

Today On The Eric Metaxas Show, Eric talks with James Lindsay about America's identity crisis, the launch of Revolution, and why false ideologies rush in when a nation forgets who it is. They discuss Nazism, Marxism, eugenics, Darwinism, the French Revolution, Charlie Kirk's question about what it means to be an American, rising antisemitism on the left and right, the Sinai covenant, and why recovering America's founding story may be essential to keeping the republic.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 161 Totalitarian projects are peculiar. They're obsessed with telling us who man is and then controlling who man can become from their unique theories about our true nature. Within each, though, is a particular fantasy about who man is outside of sin (and what defines the nature of sin and depravity). The theological word, at least in Christian circles, for this sinless man is "prelapsarian man," that is, man before the Fall. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explores the prelapsarian fantasies of Communists and Nazis and discusses how they inform the thinking of these two totalitarian cousins. Join him for a uniquely deep look into the totalitarian mindset and the strange fantasies of Communism and Nazism.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 160 At the heart of the Communist project is "seizing the means of production." But what does this really mean? Is it just taking control of factories and farms and "expropriating the expropriators," as Marx had it, or is there something deeper? In this fascinating episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay takes a unique look at the concept of seizing the means of production in terms of taking control of the production of humanity itself within different totalitarian schema. For the Communists, it's economic; for the Fascists, it's nationalist; and for the Nazis, it's racial production they're seizing, all with the purpose of remaking man into what he was always supposed to be. Join him for this fascinating look into the real evils of totalitarianism in a way few have ever seen them. Latest from New Discourses Press!

What if the problems in public school weren't accidents? What if low literacy rates, changing math standards, social emotional learning, and ideological curriculum were all part of a plan that started over a hundred years ago?This week Cheryl sits down with Nicki Truesdell — a second generation homeschooler who has been in the homeschool world since 1983 and has been homeschooling her own five kids since the year 2000. Nicki is the author of Anyone Can Homeschool and Home Sweet Homeschool, and runs Knowledge Keeper's Bookstore where she reprints rare out-of-print American history books to get the real story back into people's hands.In this episode they break down three books every parent needs to read:The Underground History of American Education by John Taylor GattoCrimes of the Educators by Alex Newman and Sam BlumenfeldThe Marxification of Education by James LindsayYou'll learn how the American education system was deliberately redesigned in the early 1900s by the Rockefellers, Carnegie, and the Education Trust to produce workers instead of thinkers — and how that agenda is still playing out in classrooms today through critical pedagogy, SEL, Common Core, and lowered test standards.Nicki also shares how she homeschooled as a single mom, why she believes homeschooling is the capitalist form of education, and how homeschool parents are learning the real version of American history right alongside their kids.If you've ever wondered whether pulling your kids out of school was the right call — this episode will remove any doubt.Connect with Nicki -- ⁠YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nickitruesdell1 Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-nicki-truesdell-podcast/id1798330030Homeschool 101⁠ https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschool-101/ ⁠Homeschool Consultations⁠ https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschool-consulting/ ⁠  Get her books:⁠Anyone Can Homeschool⁠ on Amazon, Kindle, and Audible! https://amzn.to/4fnSWs8Home Sweet Homeschool on Amazon and Kindle https://amzn.to/4qY4zMbKnowledge Keepers Bookstore: https://knowledgekeepersbookstore.com/ FARM FOOD FREEDOM Event: https://maxkane.com/eventsResources from Cheryl:

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 205 Where did Communism really come from? Did it originate with Karl Marx? Is it... "Jewish"? The answers to these latter questions are no. Communism arose out of a combination of German idealism and French socialism, and the first documents on the subject were composed in France. In fact, not only that, the first revolutionary Communist was a Frenchman as well, Francois-Noel "Gracchus" Babeuf, who derived many of his ideas for communist life from an obscure French thinker and tax official named Etienne-Gabriel Morelly. Morelly wrote a tract called The Code of Nature (https://www.marxists.org/subject/utopian/morelly/code-nature.htm ) in 1755 outlining what we recognize today as Communism. Babeuf took these ideas and tried to install them through his "Conspiracy of the Equals," which had a manifesto, "The Manifesto of Equals," (https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/sylvain-marechal-manifesto-of-equals) written by his collaborator Sylvain Marechal in 1796. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay takes you through these documents and makes it abundantly clear that the Communist Manifesto Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels wrote in 1848 had these ideas at their core. Join him to learn the true origins of Communism.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 205 One of the things the Nazi Experiment series tries to do on the New Discourses Podcast is to bust popular myths about the Nazis that have popped up in recent years for new audiences. One of these myths is that the Nazis didn't start out with any designs to conquer Europe, which ultimately precipitated World War II. In fact, they did have these ambitions going back to the earliest eras of their movement. In this episode of the series, host James Lindsay revisits part of the fourth chapter of Hitler's infamous Mein Kampf to reveal his thoroughly laid out arguments for why Germany must conquer Europe, particularly going eastward toward Russia. These arguments were made in 1924, a full fifteen years before World War II began as Hitler put them into action after building up his military machine. Perhaps most interesting of all were his stated motivations: a Malthusian population disaster argument combined with a belief in land equity. Join us for another illuminating episode.

This episode of the Dan Caplis Show is a must-listen for anyone interested in Colorado politics. The conversation is a wake-up call for Republicans, highlighting the challenges they face in the state and the importance of innovative strategies to win elections. Heidi Ganahl is in for Dan and shares the fascinating story of Spencer Pratt, a reality TV star who's making waves in the LA mayor's race with his viral campaign videos. Pratt's approach is a refreshing change from the usual politician speak, and it's something that Colorado Republicans could learn from. The episode delves into the numbers, discussing the significant gap between Republicans and Democrats in Colorado. The speaker explains that Republicans need to increase their base turnout, get unaffiliated voters on their side, and reduce Democrat leaning unaffiliateds' turnout. It's a tall order, but Heidi believes it's possible with the right approach. The conversation also touches on the importance of clean elections and the need for audits to ensure the integrity of the voting process. Heidi then shares a personal story about their experience with the school board election in Douglas County, where Republicans lost despite putting in a lot of effort. She highlights the need for Republicans to innovate and invest in their online infrastructure to reach more people. The conversation also covers the upcoming Freedom Festival, where Heidi and Rocky Mountain Voice will be hosting a lineup of exciting speakers, including Greg Gutfeld, Pastor Lorenzo Sewell, James Lindsay, and Nick Shirley. If you're interested in learning more about the challenges facing Colorado Republicans and how to overcome them, tune in to this episode of the Dan Caplis Show. Heidi shares practical advice, learned from her own 2022 run for governor, and inspiring stories that will leave you feeling motivated and informed.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 159 Underneath the Nazi program in Germany was a worldview, what Hitler called the "racialist worldview." At the very foundations of that worldview lurks a dark and peculiar pseudoscientific mythology. Hitler's "Chief Ideologist" Alfred Rosenberg called it "the Myth of the Blood" and presented it in a book called The Myth of the Twentieth Century, which he published in 1930. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay summarizes both the "Myth of the Blood" and some of Rosenberg's strange book while pointing the listener to a new series on the New Discourses Podcast exploring both in far greater detail: the Myth of the Blood series (https://newdiscourses.com/2026/05/pseudo-traditionalism-and-the-nordic-science/).

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 204 The Nazi mythology, the so-called "Myth of the Blood," refused the idea of a static, "monist" world, one built on a single thesis, one morality, and one unchanging God. Instead, it favored polarization and dynamism as the fundamental Law of Nature. This fact is clearly laid out and explained in Alfred Rosenberg's 1930 word The Myth of the Twentieth Century, which serves as the basis for this series, The Myth of the Blood, on the New Discourses Podcast. In this episode of the podcast, host James Lindsay takes you through the last sections of the first chapter of Rosenberg's Myth (titled "Race and Race-Soul") to illustrate the complete Nazi rejection of monotheism, Catholicism, Christianity, Judaism, and any "static" concept of the world that isn't based in race that honors and worships a living revelation in a dynamic, changing world ruled by a solar deity, which he locates in the Nordic Aryans from Atlantis.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 158 How does society work? That seems like an important question for people who live in societies and are thus tasked, whether they like it or not, with keeping the thing going. The answer is pretty surprising, actually, and it all boils down to how we incentivize people to work in ways that benefit other people even when they don't know or care about those other people. Drawing off Friedrich Hayek's arguments about the "extended society," in this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay endeavors to explain what actually makes societies work and why centrally planned and totalitarian systems do a poor job of running them.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 203 Among the peculiar anxieties that fueled the Nazi Experiment in Germany in the 1920s and 1930s was the fear that Germany would be relegated to merely economic participation in a broader world order, causing Germans and Germany to subordinate their personalities and race to merely economic concerns. Of course, this anxiety exists again today and motivates the reactive and transformative thinking of the Woke Right, who fears that America is regarded merely as an "economic zone" instead of a nation as a people in a place. Americans, under this formulation, are allegedly reduced to "fungible economic units" who are "replaceable" not just by other Americans but by workers anywhere in the world. Just as the Nazis tied this mentality to "Jewish" Marxist manipulation of "Jewish" capitalism, so too does the Woke Right in our own day. In this fourteenth volume of the Nazi Experiment series of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay takes us into the bottom third of the fourth chapter of Volume 1 of Hitler's Mein Kampf to show the parallel thinking, parallel rhetoric, and parallel propaganda to what we face in our own day.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 157 One of the most contentious issues in the modern world, raging now for at least a century, is the issue of the legality of Jewish settlement and statehood in Israel. There are strong arguments on both sides of this difficult issue, but there's a narrow question involved as well: Did the Jews move to the region legally (or are they illegal settler-colonialists)? In the effort to put some clarifying information about this issue into the world, host James Lindsay uses this episode of New Discourses Bullets to discuss a summary of the key points immediately surrounding the question.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 202 Underneath the Nazi Experiment lay a mythology. That mythology was called "the Myth of the Blood" by Hitler's chief ideologist Alfred Rosenberg. Rosenberg recorded this mythology in a very peculiar book called The Myth of the Twentieth Century, originally published in 1930. In it, Rosenberg lays out a complete treatise of what Nazis were supposed to believe about the world and their own roles in it, answering fundamental questions like how the world is organized, what is its history, what is the meaning of that history, who are we in the world, and what are we called to do; that is, fundamentally religious questions. In Volume 13 of his Nazi Experiment podcast series on the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay introduced the text of The Myth of the Twentieth Century by reading from the first chapter, "Race and Race-Soul," where he suggested the book deserved greater treatment in its own series. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, Lindsay inaugurates that series with a further exploration from the first chapter of Rosenberg's Myth. Here, he explains his view on the role and origin of the myth while reading through Rosenberg's explanation of the role of "German" or "Nordic" science in its opposition to the older, dying world that includes things like Christianity and Catholicism.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 156 Central to the psychological and social construction of both Fascists and Nazis are the concepts of heroism and honor. These sound good, like sound foundations of society. Then again, from the Marxist Left, so do fairness and justice. In both cases, though, we find a rule of totalitarian systems: the virtues are defined in terms of the totalitarian project itself. Under Fascist and Nazi thinking, heroism and honor are comprehensible only in terms of one's duty to the state, which should be a matter of personal honor and heroic self-sacrifice for the collective. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay pulls back the veil on this Fascist dimension of nice-sounding but deceptive language. Join him for a clarifying explanation.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 201 As we have been exploring, the Nazis had a worldview, and that worldview formed the core of their European experiment in the 1930s and 1940s. Underneath that worldview was a myth: the Myth of the Blood. This myth was concocted by the Nazi's chief ideologist, Alfred Rosenberg, and formalized the race-based thinking of the Third Reich. And myth it is. Rosenberg records these ideas in his book The Myth of the Twentieth Century, which begins with a chapter titled "Race and Race-Soul," and it opens with a declared intention to rewrite history. In this episode of the Nazi Experiment series on the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay takes you through several sections of Rosenberg's Myth, showing just how deep the racial rabbit hole goes with the Nazis (to the foundations of humanity, to be exact).

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 155 Underneath the hood of Fascism is a heavy insistence that its program aligns with various aspects of Nature. Generally, the belief that something being "natural" (right or wrong in the assessment) means that it is also good is referred to as the "naturalistic fallacy." That means it is an error. That something is "natural" does not necessarily imply that it is good. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay addresses the weird appeals to Nature in Fascist ideologies.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 154 Father of Italian Fascism, Benito Mussolini, is famous for having remarked that Fascism can be summarized simply enough as "corporatism." When we hear this, many of us assume it refers to an ideology of the state being fused with its corporations. That's part of the economic program of Fascism, no doubt, but that's not actually what it means. What it means is much more concerning and creepy. The word "corporate" and thus "corporatism" come from the Latin root corpus, which means "body." Fascism as corporatism actually means that the whole of society operates as a single body or single organism! The individuals are its cells, the institutions (including corporations) are its organs, and the Fascist State is its Central Nervous System and seat of its entire soul.

Recently we marked 77 years since the NATO alliance was founded. Instead of celebrating this milestone, however, President Trump's comments slamming NATO over its reluctance to help the US secure the Straits of Hormuz, including calling the alliance a “paper tiger” and saying NATO allies were “tested” and they “failed”, have left allies wondering if the future of the alliance is in doubt. Given President Trump's statements, could a US withdrawal from NATO be in the cards, and what would it mean for the US and for allied countries like Greece?  James Lindsay and Ino Afentouli join Thanos Davelis as we break down why NATO matters in a world of increasing great power rivalry, what's at stake for the US, and why it's critical for Greece, Southeastern Europe, and the Eastern Mediterranean. This week we're also digging into Greek history as Greece recently commemorated the 200th anniversary of the heroic exodus of the Greeks from the besieged city of Messolonghi during the Greek Revolution. We break down this story with Professor Alexander Kitroeff who explains why it was a pivotal moment for the Greek Revolution, how it galvanized philhellenes around the world, and why this story still resonates today. Taking us to our “I am HALC” segment, we're highlighting one of HALC's earliest members, Harry Koulos. A distinguished attorney, Harry has been named one of Best Lawyers' Ones to Watch since 2024. He honed his skills as a clerk in Federal court and at one of the biggest law firms in the US, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, before taking his expertise to Kibler Fowler & Cave, where he currently practices. A distinguished leader, Harry's passion for the law is equal to his passion for his Hellenic identity and the community. A little more info on our guests: James Lindsay is the Mary and David Boies distinguished senior fellow in U.S. foreign policy at the Council on Foreign Relations.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 200 At the end of the day, the magic that makes the American Experiment work is that it is grounded in an astute understanding of human nature and political realism. Almost nowhere is this fact more evident than in Federalist 51 (https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Hamilton/01-04-02-0199), written by either James Madison or Alexander Hamilton in early 1788. In this Federalist Paper, addressed to the people of the State of New York, Madison (or Hamilton) makes the case for the need for a federal government but also one with divided powers.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 153 Fascism is generally regarded as a reactionary and right-wing ideology (though that latter characterization is strongly contested for good reasons). The truth is, it is a progressive ideology, though. It would be most appropriate to say that Fascism is progressive by reactionary means, in fact. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay makes the case that we should see Fascism as an ultra-progressive ideology that seeks to unify people in order to advance humanity to some idealistic higher potential.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 152 The usual understanding of the Jewish people is that the Jews are God's "chosen people." What does that mean? Well, it doesn't mean what antisemites and detractors of Jews tend to believe it means, and what it means is actually extremely interesting. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay "goysplains" the idea of Jews being God's "chosen people," aiming to explain what is meant by that claim and what it entails for Jews and others. This episode is meant as an explainer for non-Jews, obviously, as Jews already know this (better than James does), so join him to hear him try to explain it to you so you can understand this genuinely interesting belief better for yourself.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 198 Early in March 2026, the famous but anonymous X account known as "Insurrection Barbie" (https://x.com/defiyantlyfree) dropped a long article (https://x.com/DefiyantlyFree/status/2029681200189636717) about an Integralist operation to disrupt and hijack the American right-wing (or conservative movement, or Republican Party). The results were tremendous. Her article got over four million views; Senator Ted Cruz shared it as an important read; and a large contingent of both radical right-wing and non-radical conservatives (predominantly Catholics) overreacted tremendously. Additionally, James Lindsay, host of the New Discourses Podcast, reads through the entirety of her long article and adds his own commentary, including introducing crucial pieces he feels she leaves out regarding the (mostly Protestant) neo-Integralist movement called "Christian Nationalism." Join him for this important piece of the puzzle regarding what's going on in our world today. Latest from New Discourses Press!

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 151 Being a very effective propagandist doesn't just rely on having a powerful message. It also depends on trust. Thus, the ideal propagandist is, in fact, a "trusted voice." In the realm of "Woke," which is to say with regard to critical theories, that trusted voice tends to take on a particular form. He is a critic, one who calls out the embedded corruption of the system all around him. The mode in which this happens in our world today comes from Antonio Gramcsi's "organic intellectual." Of course, Gramsci was a father of the Western Marxist tradition, and his organic intellectual is a man of the people who really understands why things aren't right. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay breaks down this idea and presents it in terms that are relevant and timely, both on the Left and Right. Join him to learn all about it.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 198 When we talk about Woke Left and Woke Right, while the essential core of being "Woke" is mostly the same, there are some key differences. These organizational and conceptual differences arise in part because of deeper differences in how each of these projects divides the world, always ultimately into "us versus them." With the Woke Left, it is divided starkly horizontally by classes deemed oppressor and oppressed. With the Woke Right, on the other hand, the model is more of circled wagons. The authentic, ideal nation defines the group that sees itself as alienated and even oppressed, while outside of that core are contaminants that are ultimately degrading it and ruining its inheritance. In this groundbreaking episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay introduces the concept of "Woke Nationalism" to explain this phenomenon, a Wokeness built around a collective of a nation. Join him to understand this important new idea. Latest from New Discourses Press!

Send us a text by clicking this link!A husband posts that his wife “was formerly promiscuous” and he “was a virgin,” and somehow we're all expected to nod along like it's spiritual content. That moment opens a bigger problem we can't ignore: testimony culture is starting to look like confession-as-branding, where past sin becomes a credential and conversion becomes a content strategy.We dig into what this does to the moral imagination, especially for younger Christians who grew up trying to live faithfully. When dramatic stories get rewarded, it quietly teaches that holiness is boring and that wreckage is a prerequisite for meaning. We talk about repentance versus performance, the temptation toward antinomian thinking, and why public scandal isn't erased by a quick “sorry” when real harm was done.Then we pivot to the political-theology fight blowing up online: Catholic integralism, natural law, religious liberty, and why figures like Scott Hahn are suddenly getting name-dropped as threats on mainstream shows. We react to the Eric Metaxas clip with James Lindsay and John Zmirak, clarify what integralism actually claims about the relationship between temporal power and spiritual authority, and challenge the “we don't impose morality” line that collapses the moment you remember that every law encodes a moral vision.We also connect the dots to the convert boom narrative, Zionism pressure, Gaza framing, and the way “anti-Semitism” gets used as a debate-ending weapon. We read and respond to public statements in the Carrie Prejean Boller controversy and Bishop Robert Barron's response, emphasizing the need to condemn real racism while refusing to treat all criticism of Israel, Judaism, or public behavior as hatred. If you want clearer categories, sharper definitions, and less propaganda in Christian discourse, this one is for you.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 150 The Nazi Party had a problem through its entire existence, from 1920 to 1945. That problem was Christianity, which was in its way. The Nazi movement, you see, was a totalizing worldview that is in many ways at complete odds with Christianity. In order to get German Christians, both Protestant and Catholic, to accept and move toward Nazi ideology, a concept known as "Positive Christianity" was proposed as the official belief doctrine for the Third Reich, but what was it? Initially, it seems it was a placeholder meant to placate German Christians without offending either Catholic or Protestant. Later, it was developed by Nazi ideologist Alfred Rosenberg into a "bridge faith" meant to bring Christians in through their faith and slowly transform them into Nazis who would leave Christianity behind. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay lays it all out in a deep, thorough, and succinct way so that you can understand. Join him, and you'll see not only history but clear parallels to the "Christian Nationalism" movements of today. Latest from New Discourses Press!

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 149 The Long March Through the Institutions is a Marxist strategy for infiltrating the West through its institutions. Realizing by the 1960s that they would not be able to take the United States and Western Civilization from the outside, Marxists started formulating strategies in the "Western Marxist" canon to take it from the inside. That required taking over its institutions and transforming them and their culture. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explains this insidious concept and strategy and how it continues to this day, now infiltrating conservative institutions too.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 148 A critical theory can be made out of anything. You can have a Critical Race Theory about race, a Critical Gender Theory about sex, even a Critical America Theory about America. And, we have all of these. In universities, Critical America Theory is usually branded as "American Studies," but we have it everywhere. It's not just in schools but in media, entertainment, law, and everything else. It also doesn't just appear in left-wing ways like Howard Zinn's infamous People's History of the United States or Nikole Hannah-Jones's crappy "1619 Project." It comes at us in right-wing forms as well, most visibly from Tucker Carlson. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explains the idea of Critical America Theory and how we encounter it today across the political spectrum, including its funding and support by George Soros and his foundations.

Mark Levin. 91% of MAGA Approves Iran Action, 50% of Right Wing Podcasters Disapprove. Who are they Really! America's Role in Reshaping Iran's Future For this entire Mark Levin Show visit - https://youtu.be/vgoaq-e4RDI?si=0jCO9FLpYhWxwmgY The Mark Levin Show 91.7K subscribers 4,380 views Premiered Mar 10, 2026 Mark Levin Audio Rewind On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, for the media, and now for most politicians, what's most important is not winning this war against Iran AND ensuring it's not replaced by another monstrous regime, but the price of gasoline on a daily basis. If this military campaign is ended prematurely, and the second phase of ensuring the institution of a civil government is not accomplished, chances are this entire effort will be for naught.  The economic, geo-political, and national security gains, which have been immense, and the stated goal of liberating the Iranian people, which initiated this process, could become a disaster in every respect -- including political. After we destroyed the Japanese regime in WWII, the U.S. wrote their constitution and installed a government that would be aligned with us.  We must give very focused thought to what comes after the Iranian regime's navy, air force, missiles, and top leadership are destroyed.  It still has a standing army, secret police, and an entire Islamist-supporting infrastructure.  There are many approaches to dealing with this short of a democracy project or sending hundreds of thousands of soldiers.  But to be clear, if a void is created and left there, and we do not fill it (perhaps with our allies) or significantly influence how it is tilled, it most definitely will be filled by the forces in Iran that remain from the old regime with the support of their allies, including China and Russia. Also, polls show that 91% approve of President Trump's handling of the Iran situation among MAGA supporters and 83% among Republicans. Since Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Steve Bannon, and Candace Owens opposed this military campaign, their audience must largely consist of leftists, anti-Semites, foreigners, Islamists, Marxists, and Democrats. Later, Democrats fiercely oppose voter ID requirements, particularly photo IDs, despite broad public support across all races.  Photo IDs are routinely required for everyday activities, yet Democrats claim they are too difficult to obtain, especially for Black people and married women, which is inherently racist and condescending. Without photo ID verification, there is no reliable way to confirm a voter's identity, prevent double voting, or stop impersonation, particularly in the 11 states (mostly Democratic) that do not require any ID.  Finally, Dr James Lindsay calls in and argues that efforts to drive a wedge between Jews and Christians, and to redefine Americanism, stem from multiple interconnected motives. Primarily, opponents of President Trump are now attempting to weaken him and his agenda from within by fracturing his coalition. This includes pushing the Republican Party toward a more radical, identity-based politics inspired by failed European conservatism, moving away from the traditional American ideal of equal citizenship regardless of background. Influencers driving these narratives are motivated by a mix of genuine ideological commitment to paleoconservative or Buchanan-style views, financial incentives like chasing clicks, payments, bot amplification, and foreign boosting, all converging to reorganize the Republican Party and sever U.S.-Israel ties to diminish America's global defensive posture.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 197 The Jewish Question, which is "what do we do with the Jews?" rests on the presumption that they aren't wanted here, or maybe anywhere. It is therefore intrinsically antisemitic. Since the catastrophe of World War II, all civilized societies have come to recognize this fact and refuse the Jewish Question except in the dark margins of society (at least, until recently). With the state of Israel on the world stage again, though, the question hasn't gone away but has changed shape. Now, instead of asking about what we do with the Jews, presuming they aren't wanted, it is a sign of nationalist erudition to ask what we should do with Israel, still on the presumption that it isn't wanted. This is called "the Israel Question," and it is merely a proxy for the Jewish Question in our post-WWII world. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay explains in thorough detail how the Israel Question is just a modern reinvention of the Jewish Question that hides the same darkness. Join him to learn why almost all anti-Zionism is just the same old antisemitism pretending to be high-minded global politics and foreign affairs. Latest from New Discourses Press!

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 147 The friend-enemy distinction, as it is called, is the underlying organizational principle of the Marxist Left, radical Islam, and the Fascist Reactionary Left (usually mislabeled "Right"). It is spelled out in detail in a 1932 book by Carl Schmitt called The Concept of the Political, (https://amzn.to/4rbQpFN) and in that book Schmitt goes into great detail to explain what is meant by the term "enemies." He gives much less clear attention to the opposing term "friends," in his fundamental construction. So who are the friends in the friend-enemy distinction? Friends are those who will join with you to fight the enemy, who has been declared by the leader (or Führer). In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay exposes this ugly fact about the "friendship" (or, allyship) in the friend-enemy distinction and reveals that it is the root of authoritarian and totalitarian thinking. Join him to learn why this concept is so evil. Latest from New Discourses Press!

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 196 Today in America, we face a confusing "Christian Nationalist" (https://newdiscourses.com/2023/04/two-wolves-of-christian-nationalism/) movement that is reaching into many legitimate complaints and anxieties of American Christians and turning them to its project. While the term can mean many things, at least some of the meanings of "Christian Nationalism" are undeniably a kind of political movement (https://newdiscourses.com/2024/12/the-hoax-that-broke-the-conservative-internet/) posing as a theological movement. In fact, the most movement-ish strains (https://newdiscourses.com/2023/08/wtf-is-christian-nationalism/) of that line of thinking are precisely that. Something like this has happened before. When Hitler and his National Socialists were establishing the Third Reich, they had a huge cultural problem to overcome: nearly all Germans were Christians, not National Socialists. Their solution was an ambiguous term called "Positive Christianity" that increasingly got used as a bridge faith to turn believing German Christians into Nazis. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay continues his Nazi Experiment series (https://newdiscourses.com/?s=nazi+experimentto) explore the justifications for Nazi "Positive Christianity," revealing concerning echoes from the past. Join him to hear about the Third Reich's unique "Christian Nationalism" movement in their own words. Latest from New Discourses Press!

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 146 The essence of a critical theory is a philosophical stance we can and should call "negative idealism," and this negative idealism explains why "critical" movements like Communism, Fascism, and Woke of all types trend toward violence.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 195 When we face the question of what makes us who we are, different people have different answers. Some see ourselves as receptacles of tradition. Others see us as a self to be discovered in the world. Still others see us as blank slates who can become whatever we can dream. In some sense, these dispositions are in all of us, and that's healthy. They also define broad political orientations and movements. Importantly, they can also all go bad. Some months ago, James Lindsay, host of the New Discourses Podcast, wrote an essay for New Discourses called "Man with Three Faces" (https://newdiscourses.com/2025/04/man-with-three-faces-politics-pathology-and-the-modern-selves/) discussing this idea, and in this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, he talks through it casually, explaining its meaning and relevance for a wider audience.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 194 James Lindsay's second trip to Israel was very different from his first (https://newdiscourses.com/2025/11/am-yisrael-chai/). On this trip, he got what he calls his "Real Jerusalem Experience," and he did a wide variety of things, not so much a coherent, organized tour. In the process, he was introduced to Israeli and Jewish life in a new way, which has offered him insights on what it means to be American and why America is the way that it is. Perhaps most poignantly, while visiting Kibbutz Nir Oz with Seth Dillon, Rob McCoy, Karys Rhea, and others, he heard directly how the heartbeat of life, strength, and endurance in the face of tremendous evil and adversity can be summarized in two simple words: "Jewish values."

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 144 The ever-insightful Michael Malice once explained, "most people do not process information through a true/false filter but through an us/them filter." There are pretty deep and interesting reasons why this is true, and there are also insightful comments to be made about the necessity and value of at least some of us disciplining ourselves to prefer a true/false filter, or at least to defer to the results of one. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explores this idea out loud and explains its relevance to politics, society, and education. Be sure to join him!

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 193 As we encounter both the material in the infamous Epstein Files and revelations from some of Epstein's associates, not to mention the advances in AI and robotics, we're confronted with what seemed like dystopian science fiction just a few years ago: transhumanism. Tech futurists, however, have been predicting it and working toward it for decades, including the curious figure of "Martine" Rothblatt, creator of SiriusXM Radio and board member at the Mayo Clinic. Rothblatt is trans and has written at least two very odd books about sex and gender, The Apartheid of Sex: A Manifesto on the Freedom of Gender (https://www.amazon.com/Apartheid-Sex-Manifesto-Freedom-Gender/dp/051759997X/) (1996) and an updated version called From Transgender to Transhuman: A Manifesto on the Freedom of Form (https://www.amazon.com/Transgender-Transhuman-Manifesto-Freedom-Form/dp/0615489427/) (2011). In this latter book, Rothblatt explains, perhaps ironically now, that the same arguments that justify "transgender" also justify transhuman: ultimately that who we really are does not depend on our physical body at all. In this creepy episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay presents some of this troubling book to you. You will not want to miss this. Latest from New Discourses Press!

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 192 What makes something valuable? How do we determine value? One hypothesis on value is famously forwarded and relied upon by the Marxists. It is called the "Labor Theory of Value," and it insists that labor is what transforms raw materials into something "humanized" and therefore of value. Therefore, in this theory, labor is what makes something valuable. Of course, this theory has not proved to be adequate for economic purposes, which is just another part of why Marxism is an abject failure even as an economic doctrine (aside from everything else). The question, however, remains. In this fun episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay takes a casual stab at a different answer: a problem-solving theory of value. This would be the idea that value is determined in relation to a good, commodity, or service's capacity to solve problems for people, particularly their consumers. Join him on this exploration to think about some things in a new, different way. Latest from New Discourses Press!

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 142 What in the world do the Woke mean by "lived experience"? (https://newdiscourses.com/tftw-lived-experience/) As has been discussed here before (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/10/lived-experience-explained/), lived experience is a kind of magical combination of what someone actually lives and experiences and a Woke (or "Critical" or Marxist) interpretation of what causes that experience and what it means. That is, it is experience plus Woke interpretation. The thing is, while only the Woke Left calls this mixture of experience and activating misinterpretation by the term "lived experience," the phenomenon is spreading outside of Leftist circles. It's important we see how. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay revisits the topic of "lived experience" and explains how it manifests outside of Leftist enclaves and without the cutesy name. You don't want to miss this one. It's an important one. Latest from New Discourses Press!
