Are we all post-liberals now? The leading voice in the debate about what comes after liberalism, Notre Dame professor Patrick Deneen, joins the podcast to discuss where American politics is headed now that the push for a globalized society has failed to survive contact with geopolitical reality.He and Oren unpack the failures of the liberal age, from free trade and open borders to foreign wars of adventure, and how a new conservatism helped deliver its demise. Finally, they make sense of where the waning liberalism of today leaves conservatives, and why young people are at the heart of this shift to something better.Further reading:"We Are All Postliberals Now," by Patrick Deneen

What does cinematic mean to you? Carlyn Hudson https://www.carlynhudson.com/ joins Matt and Oren fresh off completing her latest short, "Waffle".Is cinematic just a slick look? Is it about lighting? Or is it whatever Midjourney gives you when you ask for a cinematic style? It's always a party when these three are together, with lively discussion, interesting perspectives, and free thrown punches. And our partners in banter spar over all the different layers that make cinematic more than any one thing. And how it's different, arguably different, for different people!It all opens into a side discussion about this summer's movies: Jurassic Park, F1, and of course Danny Boyle's "28 Years Later". What do you think about its "Trainspotting" look, jaw-dropping $75 million (no kidding) budget, and how Instagram is shaping believability.

Welcome to the Knowledge of Nothing (KON) podcast! Where your hosts, Tony, Brian, Oren and Wayne discuss the inane, somewhat entertaining, and occasionally educational topics on a weekly basis.

The United States remains wholly dependent upon China for 95% of rare earth elements, 100% reliant on imports for 15 critical minerals, and over 80% reliant for eleven more. These minerals enable everything from batteries to semiconductors—and without domestic access, America's technological dominance is at risk.Robert Bryce, a leading energy policy scholar, joins Oren to explore how decades of shortsighted policy let China dominate critical supply chains, what it would take to rebuild them, and whether the West can shake off its complacent belief that “the market will fix it” before it's too late. Finally, they close with a discussion on the promising future of domestic nuclear power.Further reading:“Restoring Leadership in Critical Minerals” by Dean BallRead Robert Bryce's Substack

Matt's back from the Chattanooga Film Festival, and Oren just wrapped a whirlwind gig in Thailand. Jet lag not included. Yay!!! This week, they unpack the age-old question: is it still essential to live in L.A.? Is the cost of living worth it? And what does long-term career sustainability actually look like?It's an episode about experimentation and pushing boundaries. Matt tested the waters by bringing his kid to a low-key film festival.

Matt and Oren dig into the creative choices director's make. And they kick it off by looking at the growing influence of AI on the process. They also tackle casting and why it's more than just finding the “right” actor. But also, what makes for the right actor in a commercial? Comedic timing, tone, understanding the game, our grasp of something else? They also share how many actors they callback and put on avail. And what happens when an actor crushes the audition but doesn't book it. Do you tell them?You'll find some tips on how to invite creative collaboration, whether wardrobe, production design, or with your DP, in a way that encourages suggestions for plus-ing the production. But, without sounding like a film school director who doesn't know, or is too afraid, to make choices.---Get a great deal on Magic Mind! https://magicmind.com/shootitjune NEW LINK!! Matt's Endorsement: If you have a Loog Guitar for kids https://loogguitars.com/, get a guitar strap.

Welcome to the Knowledge of Nothing (KON) podcast! Where your hosts, Tony, Brian, Oren and Wayne discuss the inane, hopefully entertaining, and sometimes educational topics on a weekly-ish basis. This episode debuts a new-ish main segment but beforehand the guys cover a lot of random things.

Over the last two weeks, an online battle has broken out among the New Right over the Israel-Iran conflict and the Trump administration's bombing of an Iranian nuclear facility. Regardless of whether the recent ceasefire between Iran and Israel holds, the events so far have drawn clear dividing lines within the coalition. What does "America First" mean for Middle Eastern policy?Josh Hammer, author of Israel and Civilization, and Sohrab Ahmari, U.S. editor of UnHerd, join Oren to debate the wisdom of Trump's attack, the limits of Jacksonian restrictionist foreign policy, and how to think about the U.S. relationship with Israel. The group unpacks the intricacies of what a post-hegemonic world order actually looks like in the Middle East, and how best to respond to what could come next.Further reading:“Is Israel the Ideal 'America First' Ally?” by Oren Cass

When we last recorded Saturday night, the U.S. had just announced its strike on Iran's nuclear facilities. The U.S. had entered the war. The restrainers had seemingly lost. In the following hours, President Donald Trump said the mission was a “spectacular military success.” And Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the program “obliterated” Iran's nuclear sites.  But there's much more to that story than meets the eye. As Jay Solomon wrote in our pages: Before the U.S. struck, 16 cargo trucks entered the fortified mountain complex and moved unidentified equipment to another location. Are the sites destroyed or merely damaged? Was enriched uranium smuggled out? It all remains unclear. Now the war is heating up. Israel has expanded its bombing campaign beyond nuclear facilities to hit regime targets. Qatar has closed its airspace. And just as we write this, Iran has reportedly fired toward Qatar and Iraq. It all begs the question: Was the strike on Iran's Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant the end of this war—or just the beginning? And what comes next? To understand the state of the nuclear facilities and the state of the war, we've brought together three of the most well-read experts: Michael Oren, Jay Solomon, and Matti Friedman. Oren is the former Israeli ambassador to the U.S. He served from 2009 to 2013. He is also a former Knesset member. He is the author of many books, including Ally: My Journey Across the American-Israeli Divide. Solomon is an investigative journalist who has covered Iran and the region for decades. He just published an explosive piece for The Free Press titled “Did Iran Just Sneak Out Critical Nuclear Material from Fordow?” And, Friedman is our Jerusalem-based columnist, and the author of four books, including his latest, Who by Fire: Leonard Cohen in the Sinai. He just wrote  “After the Bombs: American B-2s Just Changed the Middle East. Now It's Time to Return the Region to the Humans Who Live Here” for our pages. We'll note we recorded this Monday morning, starting around 11 a.m. ET, as a Free Press Live event. To join these, you just need to do one thing—and that's become a Free Press subscriber.

Former Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. Michael Oren joins The Winston Marshall Show for a sweeping conversation on Iran-Israel war — and why the West keeps failing to see the bigger picture.Oren warns that the missile attacks from Iran are just the surface of a much deeper, ideological war—one in which Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and others act as Tehran's proxies in a global jihadist strategy. He explains why the West misreads the region, mistaking economic grievances for religious zeal, and how this blindness has led to years of appeasement and strategic failure.Oren discusses historic missteps, the illusion of moderation, and the rising threat of a direct Iran–Israel confrontation that could drag the world into war.All this—Iran's global network, the myth of proportionality, jihadist ideology, and the price of Western naivety…-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters 00:00 Introduction 07:32 The Obama Administration's Approach to Iran 20:06 The Trump Administration's Perspective 25:00 The Biden Administration's Approach and the JCPOA's Violations 34:47 The Military Capabilities and Strategy of Operation Lion's Roar 45:28 The Potential for Regime Change in Iran 57:43 The Role of the U.S. and International Support 1:00:10 The Impact of British and Canadian Actions on Israel 1:04:03 The Historical and Geopolitical Context of the Conflict Hosted on Acast.

Economists have claimed for years that Americans are prospering more than ever before. So why do so few people feel that way?Philip Pilkington, author of the forthcoming The Collapse of Global Liberalism, joins Oren to discuss how these economic metrics are obscuring real problems. The two challenge the assumption that consumption is an unalloyed good and discuss the need to think about our nation's economic health in a way that centers human flourishing.Further reading:“The Limits of Consumption Deepening: Why Consuming More Makes Us Poorer” by Philip Pilkington

The directing duo from "Don't Tell Larry" detail their eight-year journey to turn the phrase, "Don't Tell Larry", into a world, a web series, and feature starring Eg Begley., Jr., Dot-Marie Jones, Patty Guggenheim, and Kiel Kennedy. And they chat with Matt and Oren about how their background in unscripted TV prepared them but also left gaps when it came to making the movie they wanted to make, without EPs steering them off-track.From 300 pitches to turning down lucrative investors, the pandemic, and choosing to shoot in Dallas, the guys explore all the challenges of making an indie film, and adhering to high standards, all while influencers walk away with the fees that filmmakers traditionally could garner from commercial work. And other filmmakers like, Danny Gervitz's film "The Man in the Photo" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6WpwmPe9Ks, "Skinamarink" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APQqilSTxz0 and forgoing distributors and theatrical releases, in favor of going straight to YouTube.Tell them your thoughts on Instagram @dtlthemovie @gregporper @jschimke---Get a great deal on Magic Mind! https://magicmind.com/shootitjune NEW LINK!!Matt's Endorsement: "No Hard Feelings" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15671028/Oren's Endorsement: Eric Chien, the magician https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWO5-0OYMwcGreg's Endorsement: The book "Day Trading Attention: How to Actually Build Brand and Sales in the New Social Media World." by Gary Vaynerchuk https://garyvaynerchuk.com/attention/John's Endorsement: DaVinci Resolve updated their Edit page and it's wonderful.

Welcome to the Knowledge of Nothing (KON) podcast! Where your hosts, Tony, Brian, Oren and Wayne discuss the inane, hopefully entertaining, and sometimes educational topics on a weekly-ish basis. This week's episode immediately goes off the rails with an inaccurate celebrity death, the guys comparing the size of their “weapon”, and being called someone's “daddy.” Things finally get back on track with an update on the “Nacho Daddy” competition, some fascinating Big O Facts & Jokes, and a couple of poll results. The episode ends with a controversial edition of Keep It or Kill It, where Tony and Brian have to decide not who's the best…not who's the worst…but who is their favorite movie dad. Things get testy, their picks get debated, but mostly their final choices are definitely unpredictable. Did your favorite get axed prematurely?

The freshman senator explains how his background led him to Congress and breaks down the forces driving the political realignment he's helping lead.

Today's Republican Party has come a long way from the days of William F. Buckley, Jr., but his legacy continues to be felt across the conservative movement.Sam Tanenhaus, former editor of the New York Times Book Review and author of the newly released Buckley: The Life and the Revolution That Changed America, joins Oren to discuss the conservative statesman's life and work. The two discuss how Buckley viewed himself as a reactionary bent on overthrowing the liberal orthodoxy of his day, his work to realign the party, and what those who aim to do likewise today can learn from his legacy.Further reading:“William F.

Welcome to the Knowledge of Nothing (KON) podcast! Where your hosts, Tony, Brian, Oren and Wayne discuss the inane, hopefully entertaining, and sometimes educational topics on a weekly-ish basis. There's been some fallout since the last show where one of your KONMen was reported to HR and has been placed on “paid leave” for a week. Fortunately, that void is filled with a very special guest, Parker Bell, who shares his experience with interviewing a GOAT in sports, Tony Hawk! Since the show is short one KONMan, this show became an open-audition for Parker and it seems like we may have some competition for future KON hosting responsibilities.

This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, Chuck and Sam are joined by Oren Cass, chief economist at American Compass and editor of a new book, The New Conservatives, to define conservatism and discuss how conservatism needs to return to its roots by focusing on the ends—human flourishing and national well-being—rather than just making sure people have more stuff than they did the year before. Later, Ashley Rindsberg, senior editor at Pirate Wires and author of The Gray Lady Winked, joins the show to expose how Wikipedia and Reddit have been manipulated by coordinated left-wing and pro-Hamas influence campaigns. He also brakes down NPR's media entitlement mindset and how tech platforms are being exploited for data poisoning. Then on Kiley's Corner, Kiley updates us on her ongoing turf war with a mockingbird and discusses the harrowing story of a mother who shot a man attempting to sexually assault her 12-year-old daughter.

American conservatism has never been static. Changes in our national political environment have previously shifted what the Republican Party stands for. But how does today's New Right compare to earlier realignments driven by President Ronald Reagan or William F. Buckley Jr.?Before the June 3rd release of The New Conservatives, Matthew Continetti, director of domestic policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute, joins Oren to talk through the history of recent conservative realignments. The two discuss how previous ideological realignments have taken root in various Washington think tanks and institutions, how President Trump's revolution compares to Reagan's, and where the remnants of the Old Right coalition will end up in our new political environment.

En esta reflexión, nuestra Madre nos invita a abrir el corazón al Espíritu Santo con valentía y confianza. Nos asegura que si oramos a Él, no nos vamos a arrepentir.

Welcome to the Knowledge of Nothing (KON) podcast! Where your hosts, Tony, Brian, Oren and Wayne discuss the inane, hopefully entertaining, and sometimes educational topics on a weekly-ish basis. In this week's episode, things go immediately TMI when Tony shares a “hair-raising” experience at his local gym. Then Tony and Brian decide on what this year's 4th of July cookoff competition theme will be: Nachos! (aka Nacho Daddys) and Oren shares some awesome family news with a sneak peek to next week's special guest.

I want to take a moment to share some personal updates with you. As my husband undergoes cancer treatment, I've made the decision to replay some powerful past episodes of the podcast that I believe are just as relevant and impactful today. One of those episodes is a conversation I had with Oren Jay Sofer, the author of Say What You Mean: A Mindful Approach to Nonviolent Communication. In our talk, Oren beautifully weaves together his experiences with meditation and communication to show how we can bridge the gap between inner mindfulness and how we connect with others. We dive into the heart of mindful parenting—focusing on presence, curiosity, and intention—and discuss simple, practical ways to bring these qualities into our everyday lives. I encourage you to really listen in. You'll hear strategies for embracing those all-important mindful pauses, nurturing a genuine sense of curiosity, and shifting from blame to identifying needs in your relationships. These tools aren't just theory—they can truly transform the way we show up for our kids, our partners, and ourselves. Let's lean into these conversations together, with compassion and care.

Globalization and deindustrialization have brought with them a sense among American workers that the good jobs they could once count on have disappeared. As family-supporting careers evaporate, service jobs with lower pay and unpredictable hours take their place in many communities across the country.Zeynep Ton, professor of practice at MIT's Sloan School of Management, joins Oren to discuss what a better future of work could look like. The two talk through what a “good job” means today, in a world where frontline service-sector work dominates U.S. employment. Plus, they unpack why stability, career growth, and supportive pay for the jobs that already exist—rather than a focus on training for the “jobs of the future”—is vital to supporting America's workers.Further reading:“Building a Strong U.S. Middle Class Requires High-Productivity, High-Dignity Service Jobs,” by Zeynep Ton

But what does that look like from the factory floor?Chris Power, founder and CEO of Hadrian, joins Oren to discuss how his company is helping lead reindustrialization efforts here in the United States. He explains the revolutionary technologies Hadrian uses to compete at scale with foreign firms and highlights just how different the manufacturing jobs of today are compared to what many think of as “factory work.” Finally, he and Oren talk through ways policymakers can support the domestic industrial startups we need to return America to its place as the world's leading technological and industrial power.Further reading:The Techno-Industrial Policy Playbook, published this week by American Compass, FAI, IFP, and NAIANot By Tariff Alone by Chris Griswold What An Enduring Industrial Policy Requires by Charles Yang Tear Down this Paper Wall by Christopher Koopman and Josh T.
