Today on The McCarthy Report, Andy and Rich dive deep into a discussion of crypto. This podcast was edited and produced by Sarah Colleen Schutte.

David takes on the idea that protectionism and globalization are chief rivals, and instead suggests that the chief rival of protectionism is free enterprise itself. He critiques Joe Nocera's recent Free Press article suggesting that the protectionists have been vindicated, and instead suggests that the entire protectionist agenda is essentially the plight of the central planner. A careful critique of the tariff dogma, combined with a non-revisionist view of what has transpired in trade and culture over the last few decades!

Today on The McCarthy Report, Andy and Rich discuss the Hannah Dugan case, updates on the Abrego Garcia case, and much more.This podcast was edited and produced by Sarah Colleen Schutte.

As the Trump administration and Amazon/Bezos almost duked it out over the “shocking” idea of disclosing the impact to prices from taxes on imports, those of us seeking to understand economic application out of cogent economic theory were given a great chance to relearn some lessons from master himself, Friedrich Hayek. It turns out price discovery is important in economics for the same reason transparency is important in political theory -- and this ought to be a very non-partisan belief!

In this wide-ranging and richly entertaining conversation, novelist and political satirist Christopher Buckley joins Peter Robinson for a reflection on writing, legacy, friendship, and grace. From their early days as speechwriters for George H. W. Bush to Buckley's prolific career as an author of more than 20 books—including Thank You for Smoking and Steaming to Bamboola—the two longtime friends revisit the formative moments, literary inspirations, and unforgettable characters that shaped Buckley's life and work. Buckley offers sharp, often hilarious insight into the craft of satire, the absurdities of Washington politics, and the cultural shifts in American media and manners. The conversation also turns poignantly to Buckley's late parents, Patricia and William F. Buckley Jr., his transition from political fiction to historical novels, and the enduring influence of figures like Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush. Woven throughout is a deep appreciation for civility, wit, and the lost art of gentlemanly discourse—an ethos embodied by the towering figures of a previous generation, now honored in memory. With warmth and self-deprecating humor, Buckley closes the interview by discussing his father's typewriter (which Christopher has donated to the Hoover Institution Archives), on which William Buckley composed the National Review's formative mission statement: to “stand athwart history and yell stop”; and by reading from the epilogue of Steaming to Bamboola, offering a quietly moving meditation on departure and legacy. Recorded on March 13, 2025

John J. Miller brings the Great Books podcast to a close.

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan, and National Review columnist Heather Wilheim preview tonight's speech by 2024 Democratic Presidential nominee Kamala Harris. They also discuss Wisconsin's Supreme Court decision to suspend Milwaukee circuit judge Hannah Dugan, who has been charged with helping an illegal immigrant avoid arrest by ICE agents. Plus, they chat about Trump's campaign-style speech in Detroit delivered on Tuesday evening, and his oval office interview with ABC News senior national correspondent Terry Moran. Next, Tom Bevan talks to RCP contributor and author Greg Orman about the first 100 days of organized opposition to the second Trump administration. How fares “The Resistance"? And finally, Andrew Walworth talks to Law Professor and Boston Herald columnist Wendy Murphy about a landmark case involving why women can't register for the draft, and why this is - in her view “the most important women's rights case of the past 50 years”.

Introducing the Band:Your hosts Scot Bertram (@ScotBertram) and Jeff Blehar (@EsotericCD) are joined by Andrew Stuttaford. Andrew needs little introduction as the editor of NR's Capital Matters. Find him online right here at National Review or at @AStuttaford on Twitter/X.Andrew's Music Pick: Brian EnoHere he comes, the boy who tried to vanish to the future or the past. Yes, it's time for Political Beats to celebrate one of the most influential musicians in the history of modern recorded sound -- a man who, ironically enough, is at pains to characterize himself as a non-musician. Children of the Eighties and Nineties may primarily understand Brian Eno as the producer who took U2 to megastardom, but his work as a producer is properly only a footnote to his work as a songwriter and (most importantly of all) a conceptualist. Eno first achieved fame with Roxy Music as their "noise man," providing outrageous sounds alongside "treatments" -- electronic reprocessing -- of the rest of the group's instruments. But Roxy Music was ultimately pianist/vocalist Bryan Ferry's baby, and so Eno soon struck out on his own, for a solo career that would bring him into collaboration with some of the best and most innovative musicians of the Seventies as he put out a sequence of four "lyrical" albums which bent the definition of "popular music" well past its breaking point and into the avant-garde. At the same time, Eno was creating an entirely new genre of recorded sound: so-called "ambient" music, written and recorded in such a way as to (per his maxim) "reward your attention without demanding it."This, of course, is only the tip of the iceberg in a career that also includes brilliant songwriting collaborations with Robert Fripp, David Bowie, and Talking Heads among others. All of this and much more are discussed on a episode Political Beats has been waiting to do for eight years: Brian Eno played an enormous role in inventing the sonic world we still live in, and also made some of the most unexpectedly profound and beautiful music while doing so. We are lucky to be joined by NR's own Andrew Stuttaford for this episode, who lends particular credibility to the discussion as a fan from all the way back in 1972, during the Roxy years. Enjoy stepping into another (green) world.

Charles C. W. Cooke, senior writer at National Review and host of The Charles C. W. Cooke Podcast, joined The Guy Benson Show to react to Illinois Governor JB Pritzker's aggressive remarks about Republicans. Cooke explained why this kind of rhetoric undermines any effort to seriously counter Trump's political dominance from the Democrats. Benson and Cooke also discussed new polling showing Trump slipping on economic approval nearly 100 days into his second term, and the Democrats' tendency to elevate deeply flawed figures as heroes of their movement. Cooke also discussed his skepticism toward Trump's proposed tax overhaul, which would eliminate all income taxes for those earning under $200k, funded entirely by tariffs.

In this lively episode of Right to Life Radio, host John Gerardi and guest Jonathan Keller tackle the heated debate surrounding California's AB 1453, a bill proposing that UC and CSU student health centers provide adoption information. Through sharp commentary and legislative audio clips, they expose the fierce opposition from pro-abortion groups like Planned Parenthood and UC representatives, who claim offering adoption info is “non-compassionate.” Gerardi passionately argues that pro-abortion forces have systematically diminished adoption's cultural role since Roe v. Wade, contributing to fewer adoptions and the closure of agencies like Infant of Prague. With humor, personal anecdotes from an Easter vigil, and a nod to Gerardi's National Review piece, the episode blends wit with a sobering look at the state of adoption and abortion policy in California.

Veronique De Rugy's phenomenal article

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan, and National Review columnist Heather Wilhelm discuss the battle between Harvard University and Donald Trump, and the results of the new Harvard Youth Poll, which tracks attitudes of Americans between the ages of 18 and 29. They also talk about a new lawsuit that claims Trump has superseded presidential authority on tariffs, and media reports that Trump has backed down on the trade war with China. Next, Andrew Walworth talks to Chris Ruddy, CEO of Newsmax Media about the strategy behind America's fourth most watched cable news network, how digital media is reshaping the television business, and whether the Voice of America should be shut down. And winding it up, Carl Cannon talks to RCP editors Cathi Warren and Anne Welty about the “Bell to Bell, No Cell” Act, which bans smartphones in Arkansas' public schools, and the nationwide push to restrict cellphone usage in classrooms.

If our goal is a monetary policy that minimizes interventions and distortions in the marketplace and most optimally allows capital to find its most efficient use, the last thing we should want is a Fed that is less independent and more captive to political whims and desires. David explains his various criticisms of Jerome Powell this week, but points out how we make things much worse, not better, if we believe it a good idea for the Fed to be a pawn of the president. In this case, it is counterproductive; for future precedent, it is downright dangerous.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 163 Do you know the name of the "new system" we're all being herded toward? Communism, Fascism, Communo-fascism, Technocracy... sure, yeah, all of those. But these are based on an underlying economic principle called stakeholderism. The World Economic Forum (WEF) "Stakeholder Capitalism" model from Klaus Schwab, along with the corporate ESG gobbledygook, is the most recognizable stakeholderist plan in the game, but do you know its long history and broader use? In this groundbreaking and controversial episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay explains how the first true Stakeholder economy was instituted in Nazi Germany in 1937 with the passage of a National Socialist Shareholder Law, and that both the Woke Left and New Right (or Woke Right) champion that same model today, alongside the WEF, UN, Club of Rome, CCP, and all the rest.

John J. Miller is joined by Silvina Sironi of the Word on Fire Institute to discuss 'Dark Night of the Soul' by St. John of the Cross.

David talks about all the things that are right in the dichotomy between the “stock market” and the “real economy,” but then goes into all the things that are wrong – namely, that 99% of the time someone is making this distinction, they are doing it wrong, for the wrong reasons, in the wrong way. Understanding what public equity prices measure versus what broad economic data measures is a good thing, but pitting capital against labor is called “Marxism” – and it can be deadly wrong.
