Podcasts about Tribalism

What if the biggest obstacle to your productivity isn't your schedule, your tools, or your willpower, but the stories you've been telling yourself without realizing it?In this episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Owen Fitzpatrick, CSP, social psychologist, keynote speaker, and author of Inner Propaganda, to explore how the hidden architecture of belief drives behavior, performance, and transformation.Owen introduces the concept of belief leadership, the idea that people don't follow plans, they follow beliefs, and explains why most productivity struggles trace back to a single limiting story we've bought into about who we are. Gerald and Owen dig into how the brain operates as a prediction machine, filtering the world through only 40 bits of the 10 million bits of information our eyes take in every second, and why that means we often see the world not as it is, but as we are.The conversation moves into Owen's time in North Korea, the origin of the term "inner propaganda," and how the same mechanisms nations use to indoctrinate citizens show up in our own heads, in advertising, and even in how AI systems learn to persuade us. They close with a discussion of antifragility, and how reframing failure as fuel can help you build an identity that gets stronger under pressure rather than breaking down. If you're ready to challenge the subconscious stories running your life and your leadership, this episode is packed with insight you can apply immediately.What We Discuss[00:00] Introduction[02:01] Guest introduction: Owen Fitzpatrick[05:28] Belief leadership: why people follow beliefs, not plans[06:07] Not enough hours and the myth of the "unproductive person"[08:02] How the stories we sell ourselves become our beliefs[08:49] The smoker story: expanding your identity to make change possible[11:30] 10 million bits vs. 40 bits: how little we actually perceive[12:10] The brain as a prediction machine[13:12] Why the brain optimizes for survival, not productivity[14:24] Seeing the world through the lens of our own stories[15:51] North Korea and the origin of "inner propaganda"[17:56] Rambo, Rocky, and everyday indoctrination through media[20:12] Tribalism, vilification, and the price of belonging[21:41] Reading from the book: "The Brain Always Wins"[23:27] Predictive processing and the neuroscience of belief[24:08] Lisa Feldman Barrett and how emotions are constructed[26:24] Priming, expectation bias, and running into walls[27:44] How beliefs set us up for self-sabotage or success[30:08] Antifragility: getting stronger from adversity[32:01] Blending identities: jazz, productivity, and reinvention[33:34] Where to find Owen and his book[34:39] Final thoughtsNotable Quotes[08:12] "The stories that we sell to ourselves, not necessarily just tell ourselves, but sell to ourselves, they become the beliefs that we buy." – Owen Fitzpatrick[10:24] "An identity is just a story we sell to ourselves about who we are... and because it's just a story, we can sell ourselves a new story." – Owen Fitzpatrick[12:11] "The brain is a prediction machine." – Owen Fitzpatrick[13:46] "Your brain does not optimize for productivity. It optimizes for survival and it optimizes for stability." – Owen Fitzpatrick[16:30] "The exact same mechanisms that the state uses to propagandize are the same things that my brain uses." – Owen Fitzpatrick[21:59] "The brain is a gambling addict that bets on reality. It doesn't wait for information. It guesses what should happen and adjusts when surprised." – Owen Fitzpatrick[27:57] "We can completely distort a situation based upon our beliefs or expectations, because that's how we get into mental health struggles... that's how we sabotage ourselves." – Owen Fitzpatrick[30:17] "The opposite of fragile is not resilient... antifragility is when you expose something to adversity, it gets stronger as a result." – Owen Fitzpatrick[30:54] "Every single time you're wrong, it helps you to learn and grow and improve." – Owen FitzpatrickResource and LinksOwen FitzpatrickWebsite: owenfitzpatrick.comLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/owenfitzpBook: Inner Propaganda Book Website: innerpropaganda.comPodcast: Inner PropagandaNewsletter: Inner PropagandaProductivity Smarts PodcastWebsite - productivitysmartspodcast.comGerald J.

What happens when life gives a child every reason to surrender—and he refuses? In Tears Run Dry: A Story of Courage in the Face of Poverty, Tribalism and Racism, Dr. Patrick Kalenzi shares an extraordinary true story of survival, perseverance, and the relentless pursuit of something more. Born to Rwandese Tutsi refugee parents and raised in Uganda, Patrick's childhood was shaped by poverty, hunger, discrimination, violence, and civil war. At just fourteen years old, he was pulled into a guerrilla army. Yet even when survival itself was uncertain, he held fiercely to something he believed could change the course of his life: education. His journey would eventually carry him from the villages of Uganda to America, where the boy who once struggled simply to eat and remain in school became a veterinarian, entrepreneur, author, and international speaker. But Tears Run Dry is more than a story about overcoming impossible odds. It is a story about family, sacrifice, identity, the transformative power of education, and the people whose acts of kindness can alter the trajectory of another person's life.

In this episode, Jason Clouse dives into the world of professional wrestling, sharing insights on fan behavior, wrestler personas, and the current state of the industry. He emphasizes the importance of respecting performers and enjoying the sport without tribalism.

Royce, alongside co-host Leise Winny, opens with a chaotic, unfiltered check-in that swings from bedroom preferences—tackling whether sucking toes is actually nasty or a mutual pleasure—to the deeper cultural debate over who gets to define modern womanhood. They break down the emerging new income classes reshaping society, the fallout and double standards surrounding Caitlin Clark dodging a suspension, the controversial claim that dating white is an "equalizer" for Black people, and Drake's latest moves redefining what it means to be trickin'. From there, Royce commands the floor to ask if society is growing emotionally stronger or weaker, dissecting how modern tribalism has turned human feelings, politics, race, and even therapy language into high-stakes team sports where nobody actually feels safe. Finally, Leise steps up to thoroughly dismantle the tired defense of the past, delivering a powerful breakdown on why historical racism and bigotry were never "okay"—they were simply normalized.Here is the breakdown of what the crew dives into this week:Opening welcome: Bringing the energy and setting the tone for the week.Men get their toes sucked too: Debating foot fetishes, mutual pleasure, and whether sucking toes is actually nasty.Who defines Womanhood?: The cultural battleground over modern definitions of being a woman.The New Income Class: How shifting economic brackets are creating a new societal divide.Caitlin Clark not suspended: Unpacking the latest sports controversy and media double standards.The "Equalizer" Debate: Is dating outside your race actually an equalizer for Black people, or a flawed fantasy?Drake redefines Trickin': Breaking down the latest rap lifestyle flexes and high-end spending habits.Has Society Become Emotionally Stronger or Weaker?: Questioning resilience in an era dominated by hyper-sensitivity and curated comfort.Tribalism as a Team Sport: How politics, race, religion, sports, and therapy talk became zero-sum games where meaning gets lost.Emotional strength vs. "Feeling Safe": Are we building true inner strength, or just fooling ourselves with buzzwords?"It Was Never Okay, It Was Just Normalized": Debunking the classic excuse that past bigotry and racism were acceptable just because of the era.Outro & Sign-Off: Closing remarks, key takeaways, and wrap-up.

What happens when political beliefs become more than ideas—and turn into fanaticism?In this episode of Libertarians Talk Psychology, we explore the psychology of fanaticism and why understanding it is essential for anyone trying to make sense of political conflict. We examine the forces that can drive individuals into crowds, tribes, and ideological movements, and how emotional attachment to political beliefs can shape perception, behavior, and judgment.For Libertarians, understanding fanaticism can provide valuable insight into political disputes and the psychological pathology that can develop within crowds. Rather than simply dismissing political opponents, understanding the psychology behind fanaticism may help explain why people become deeply committed to ideologies and why political disagreements can become so intense and irrational.We discuss crowd psychology, tribalism, ideological identity, political extremism, groupthink, and the importance of maintaining individual thought in the face of collective pressure.Topics include:The psychology of fanaticismCrowd psychology and political movementsTribalism and ideological identityGroupthink and conformityPolitical disputes and emotional reasoningWhy people become attached to political ideologiesUnderstanding the pathology behind the crowdWhy Libertarians should study fanaticismListen, think critically, and join the conversation about the psychology behind political conflict.Follow Us:YouTubeXFacebookBlueskyAll audio & videos edited by: Jay Prescott Videography

Civic friendship is not a nicety. For self-governing people, it is a necessity. What happens to a democracy when citizens stop seeing each other as citizens at all? Robert P. George is Princeton's McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence, director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions (and known for his enduring friendship with Cornel West) argues that “the collapse of civic friendship is a catastrophic threat to public life.” In this bonus segment from his November 2020 conversation with Evan Rosa, Robert George presents the difference between civility and mere ‘politesse; the habit of wrapping our emotions so tightly around our convictions that we assume a posture of infallibility; and the intellectual humility it takes to consider that a political enemy might have something to teach us as a civic friend. They also discuss the courage required to break ranks—George recounts how he and West, from opposite political poles, each found themselves treated as heretics in 2016 for declining to back their respective party's nominee—and why he urges his students and his own children to cultivate humility, open-mindedness, and courage, knowing exactly what it can cost to stand by a conscientious belief. Episode Highlights ”Civic friendship is actually important for all sorts of policies, but for a self-governing people, for a democratic people, civic friendship is really critically important.” ”But if we do, as we are prone to do, wrap our emotions too tightly around our convictions, then we become dogmatists. Then we become unwilling to consider the possibility that we might be wrong and that a critic might be right.” ”This is hard, but it takes humility to recognize that I might be wrong, not merely about the less important superficial and more trivial things of life, but I might be wrong even about the most important things.” ”Civic friendship, civility is not just politesse … Civility is something deeper. It is genuinely listening to the guy who disagrees with you … listening with an openness to learning, considering whether in fact he might be right.” ”You can't have an open mind unless you have intellectual humility.” ”You can become a heretic very fast by breaking ranks, even on a single issue, if the issue was even moderately important.” ”So I really encourage my young people … to try to develop the virtues of intellectual humility, open-mindedness, and courage, because sometimes courage is going to be needed.” About Robert P. George Robert P. George is the McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton University and director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions. A legal philosopher and public intellectual, he has chaired the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom and served on the President's Council on Bioethics and the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. His books include ”Making Men Moral,” ”In Defense of Natural Law,” and ”Seeking Truth and Speaking Truth,” and, with Cornel West, ”Truth Matters,” a dialogue on fruitful disagreement. A West Virginia native, he plays bluegrass banjo and guitar.

In this episode Drew Perkins talks with Haili Hughes, Associate Professor at La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia about her work and thinking on education and teaching. More specifically, this conversation touched on matters of education tribalism, research, it's lethal mutations, and how to put those findings into practice as part of ongoing teacher development and empowerment. Links & Resources Mentioned In This Episode Have some feedback you'd like to share? You can email me at drew@thoughtstretchers.org. If you enjoyed this episode, please share it and please leave a review on Apple Podcasts or wherever you're listening.Some Key Takeaways Moving Beyond Educational Tribalism: The "traditional vs. progressive" binary is an unhelpful framework that fuels toxic online discourse. Instead of engaging in partisan arguments, educators should focus on identifying and solving shared "learning problems" to bridge ideological divides. Avoiding "Lethal Mutations": Implementing educational research requires more than just following mandates. Techniques often suffer from "lethal mutations," where the original intent is lost or misused for classroom management unless they are adapted to specific subjects and pedagogical contexts. Balancing Efficiency and Meaning-Making: While "checking for understanding" routines (like mini-whiteboards) are useful for efficiency, they cannot replace deep dialogic work. Teachers must ensure students have time to debate, inquire, and articulate complex thoughts. Reframing Teacher Development: Current bureaucratic, deficit-based evaluation models often alienate teachers. Professional growth is better fostered through dialogue-based coaching and by explicitly protecting time in the school day for professional reflection, rather than relying on top-down observation. Adapting Research to the Classroom: There is no one-size-fits-all approach to cognitive science. Teachers need the agency to combine evidence-based research with their own professional expertise to make informed decisions that fit their specific curriculum and student needs. Advice for the Modern Educator: In an era of high public scrutiny, government mandates, and constant noise, teachers—especially new ones—are best served by tuning out external pressure and keeping their focus centered on the children they serve. Episode Highlights & Timecodes 00:07:35 – Haili's Journey: Haili Hughes introduces her background in English teaching, school leadership, and her path from the UK to her new role at La Trobe University in Melbourne. 00:14:25 – Beyond Educational Tribalism: A candid discussion on breaking down the "traditional vs. progressive" binary in education. Haili argues for focusing on shared learning problems rather than online ideology. 00:17:36 – Avoiding "Lethal Mutations": Why educational research often gets misinterpreted, misused, or turned into "pet projects" that don't actually impact the classroom. 00:27:11 – The Social Media Problem: Why platforms like X (formerly Twitter) are often poor proxies for nuanced pedagogical debate and why good faith is missing in many online discussions. 00:30:51 – Making Research Useful: Moving away from the view that research is "chucked down from towers" and toward a model where teachers use evidence to make professional decisions. 00:37:33 – Practical Cognitive Load Theory: How to move past the "bingo card" of educational jargon and apply cognitive science to solve specific, real-world learning problems. 00:42:32 – Checking for Understanding vs. Meaning Making: Why efficient tools like mini-whiteboards are not a replacement for deep dialogue and why we must preserve space for student inquiry. 00:46:30 – Reclaiming Inquiry: Haili explains why reframing inquiry as metacognition—an evidence-based practice—can help bridge the gap between seemingly opposing camps. 00:59:58 – Teacher Pre-service & Expertise: The danger of shoehorning cognitive science into teacher development and treating all teachers as "empty buckets" to be filled. 01:05:53 – Reforming Teacher Evaluation: Moving away from bureaucratic, clipboard-based observations toward dialogue-based coaching that empowers teachers to examine their own instructional decisions. 01:13:25 – Advice for New Teachers: Haili's powerful closing advice: Ignore the external noise—government mandates, public scrutiny, and complaints—and keep your focus on the children in front of you.

שִׁבְטֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל vs. כְּלַל יִשְׂרָאֵל

//Kyle Chamberlain

Episode Description:This is a From the Archive episode with Dan Harris.Dan Harris returns to the show for a wide-ranging conversation about meditation without the incense, jargon, or grandiose promises.James begins with Dan's story: his work at ABC News, his public panic attack, his substance abuse, his reporting from war zones, and the recovery path that led him to meditation. Dan's first book, 10% Happier, made the case that meditation could be useful even for skeptics, strivers, journalists, and people who do not identify with traditional spirituality.This episode focuses on the next step: how to actually start.Dan's book Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics, written with meditation teacher Jeff Warren and Carlye Adler, tries to remove the usual excuses. You do not need to sit for an hour. You do not need a cushion. You do not need to clear your mind. You do not need to become a different person. You can start with one minute.James and Dan discuss the difference between useful self-reflection and useless rumination, why ambition and meditation are not opposites, and why mindfulness is really the ability to see what is happening in your head without automatically believing it or acting on it.They also get into the science. Dan is careful not to oversell it, but he explains why early research suggests meditation may affect attention, stress, compassion, self-awareness, and the brain's capacity to change. James adds that the most important experiment is often the simplest one: try it for yourself and see whether your life is better in a month.The emotional center of the conversation is Dan's relationship with his wife, Bianca. Dan describes how meditation helped him become less self-centered and more available, while Bianca found her own version of practice through Jeff Warren's “Taking Back Lazy” approach. Her practice began inside real life: lying in the dark while putting their son to bed.The episode then expands into money, news, politics, and productivity. James argues that meditation can improve financial outcomes indirectly by freeing energy, reducing useless thought loops, increasing creativity, and making a person more useful to others. Dan talks about varied news diets, tribalism, and why mindfulness can help people disagree without becoming consumed by antagonism.The result is a practical archive conversation about mental training, not mystical transformation. Meditation will not solve everything. It may not make you 100% happier. But it can help you become 10% less reactive, 10% less self-absorbed, 10% more aware, and 10% more capable of dealing with the life you already have.Editorial Note:This is a From the Archive episode. References to Dan's ABC role, the original 10% Happier app, user counts, current events, and the release timing of Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics reflect the original recording period.Dan's current official site now directs listeners to his books, podcast, newsletter, and meditation app/community. The original app world has evolved since this archive conversation.What You'll Learn:Why Dan Harris became a meditation advocate after his on-air panic attack.Why meditation does not require mystical language, spiritual identity, or long sessions.How mindfulness helps separate awareness from thinking.Why ambition and meditation can coexist.How meditation can reduce useless rumination without eliminating useful self-correction.Why Dan describes self-centeredness as a source of suffering.How “friendliness” can change the way you relate to anger, distraction, and failure during meditation.Why one minute of practice can be enough to start.How Jeff Warren helped Dan's wife Bianca find a meditation practice that fit her real life.Why meditation can improve relationships by making people less owned by their own stress.How meditation may relate to money, creativity, and better decision-making.Why training the mind is broader than formal sitting practice.How neuroplasticity changes the way we think about adult learning and emotional skill.Why news consumption can either increase anxiety or increase groundedness, depending on how it is used.Why Dan says there are no silver bullets—but meditation can still change your relationship to your problems.Timestamped Chapters:Timestamped Chapters[02:00] Dan Harris Returns: James welcomes Dan back and revisits

Most men think preparedness is a bunker full of gear and ammo. My guest today, Mike Glover, knows better. A Green Beret, former CIA contractor, and founder of Fieldcraft Survival has spent his life teaching men that real readiness is a mindset before it's a skillset and that the hardest terrain you'll ever navigate isn't in the wilderness, it's the purgatory of your own worst chapter. In this conversation, Mike opens up about hardship, redemption, and what it took to pick himself up when the ground gave way beneath him. We get into why men today aren't weak so much as broken down, physically, hormonally, and spiritually. And, we talk about what it takes to rebuild. We talk about purpose and identity, the difference between the people who scatter and the people who'll always have your back, and why being targeted only sharpened his clarity about who he is and what he's built. This is a raw, unflinching look at accountability, manhood, and the courage to say what needs to be said. Mike doesn't hedge, and neither do we.

This week on “Jesuitical,” Zac and Ashley sit down with Luke Burgis, the director of the Cluny Institute at The Catholic University of America and the author of The One and the Ninety-Nine: Forging Identity in the Age of Social Contagion. They discuss why we join and leave tribes, how to form a “solid” self and what healthy group identity looks like. In Signs of the Times, Zac and Ashley discuss Vice President JD Vance's new memoir on converting to Catholicism, the consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and new statutes for the Vatican's commission for the protection of minors. Plus, Pope Leo wraps up his successful trip to Spain on the Canary Islands—but has some trouble getting off them.

We all want two things that can seem at odds with each other: to be our own person and to belong. We want to stand apart from the crowd, but we also want to be connected to it. When that balance gets out of whack, we either lose ourselves in tribalism or drift into isolation.My guest today says many of the problems in modern life stem from our inability to hold these two impulses in tension. His name is Luke Burgis, and he's the author of The One and the 99: Forging Identity in the Age of Social Contagion. Today on the show, Luke explains how becoming a true individual can give you the strength to be a part of a community. We discuss the difference between a solid self and a pseudo self — and what role families and rites of passage can play in moving us toward one or the other — why modern politics feels like a dysfunctional family, the dangers of performative religion, and much more.Resources Related to the PodcastLuke's previous appearances on the AoM podcast:Episode #714: Why Do We Want What We Want?Episode #910: Thick Desires, Political Atheism, and Living an Anti-Mimetic LifeThe True Believer by Eric HofferEducation of a Wandering Man by Louis L'AmourAoM Podcast #1,025: The Life and Legacy of Louis L'AmourAoM article with L'Amour's weekly to-do listsAoM article and podcast about C.S.

This Podcast is a Hate Crime

This week, Maine's Graham Platner won the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate despite having a Nazi tattoo on his chest and recent relationship scandals surface from his past. As well, Texas's Ken Paxton won the Republican primary for U.S. Senate, while having allegations of infidelity and securities fraud. How did these people gain popularity with voters and within their parties? This week on The Bulletin's summer programming we look at segments that have to do with how tribalism has become ingrained in how we navigate the world, including our church, and what happens when someone steps outside of the lines of their group. The episode includes conversations with New York Times journalist Frank Bruni about his book The Age of Grievance, Mockingcast's David Zahl about an incident in which David French was cancelled from a polarization panel, and Sharon McMahon about how to view others you disagree with.   REFERENCED IN THE EPISODE: The Age of Grievance by Frank Bruni GO DEEPER WITH THE BULLETIN:  Join the conversation at our Substack.  Find us on YouTube.  Rate and review the show in your podcast app of choice.  ABOUT THE GUESTS: Frank Bruni has been a journalist at The New York Times for over 25 years, in roles as diverse as op-ed columnist, White House correspondent, Rome bureau chief, and chief restaurant critic.

America's crisis may be philosophical, not political. Damien Dubose joins Dave to discuss ethics, leadership, fatherhood, responsibility, and truth.

And we're all screwed.

What if rooting for the Knicks and rallying behind a nation-state are powered by the exact same part of the human brain? On this episode of Bro History, Henry and Danny are joined by Frankie Donnelly from South Philly — and yes, Frankie is an AI research co-host powered by maneku (maneku.ai) — to break down one of the most fascinating and disturbing parallels in modern life: sports fandom as a mirror of nationalism. It starts with the Knicks' electric playoff run taking over New York City, spirals into a deleted newspaper article comparing the OKC Thunder to the state of Israel, and ends somewhere between Mussolini's Italy and a pep rally. They dig into why MSG unites Orthodox Jews and Arab New Yorkers in a way Congress never could, why Knicks fans sacking Philadelphia felt like a Mongolian conquest, and how the same psychological machinery that makes you weep over a playoff loss is the same thing authoritarian regimes have weaponized for centuries — from Hitler's Nuremberg rallies to the 1978 Argentine World Cup. Frankie drops facts, pulls receipts, and says the uncomfortable quiet part out loud — all in real time. That's maneku. Try it yourself at maneku.ai.

Send us Fan MailThe fastest way to start a pointless fight is to speak in tribes. When we say “Muslims believe,” “immigrants do,” or “the West is under attack,” we're usually not describing reality, we're advertising a shortcut our brain wants to take. I break down why that lazy language is so tempting, how it fuels tribalism, and what moral psychology can teach us about asking better questions before we pick a side.Then we run a debate clip that perfectly captures modern discourse: the conversation leaps from “Britain is being destroyed” to London crime, to Brexit and the EU, and then straight into the loaded question “Can Muslims coexist with the West?” We pause on the moments where definitions go missing and the goalposts move, because that's where bad arguments are made. Along the way we touch UK economics and austerity, immigration as an economic force, and what the crime numbers actually get used to imply.From there, the debate turns to refugees and the uncomfortable context behind the headlines: Iran, Afghanistan, and Iraq, and how war, sanctions, and long-term instability shape migration. Context doesn't excuse everything, but it does explain why trust breaks, why “just fix it” is not a serious policy answer, and why comparing countries without comparing their history is a setup for propaganda.We close on purpose with something constructive: a Harvard commencement message that lands like a blueprint for how to disagree without dehumanizing.

Finding community can be difficult. But author Luke Burgis thinks the real challenge begins once we've found it and we're subject to social pressures to conform. Listen as Burgis and EconTalk's Russ Roberts trace the tension between individuals and their tribes through the foundational frameworks, such as family and school, that help forge our identities. Burgis argues that the disappearance of traditional rites of passage bodes ill for major life commitments such as marriage, and recounts his personal journey from Wall Street through the Great Books in search of a strong, differentiated self. He also draws lessons for today's communities from Saint Benedict's 1,500-year-old guide for monastic life and describes the moving ritual he practiced with his father before he died.

Karmelo Anthony, Henry Nowak, and Graham Platner: these three individuals may be hundreds of miles apart, but the conversations surrounding each one are all evidence of the same problem: the rise of tribalism. In this not-so-laid back Friday edition of 'Will Cain Country,' Will and The Crew examine how these three cases have stoked the flames of the world's political divisions, and what can still be done to turn down the temperature.Plus, Country Music Superstar Chris Janson joins the show to discuss his love for the Big Apple & freedom, and previews the upcoming “PBR Space Cowboys” show which is streaming live June 20th on FOX Nation.

In this episode of the Mark Edge Show, Mark sits down with comedian and author Andrew Heaton to discuss his new book, Tribalism is Dumb: Where It Came From, How It Got So Bad, and What to Do About It — a book Mark calls the best he's read in a decade. Blending Douglas Adams-style wit with serious anthropological and evolutionary research, Heaton explains why humans are innately tribal, why political parties have become the "last tribe standing" as other community and identity groups have eroded, and why technology — especially social media — is likely the real culprit behind the last two decades of escalating partisanship. The conversation also digs into the difference between authoritarian and pluralist impulses, why the left-right axis fails to capture what's actually going on in politics, and why politics brings out the worst in people when it becomes a replacement religion. Grab Tribalism is Dumb on Amazon or Audible (the audiobook is performed by Heaton himself and highly recommended). #markedge #markedgeshow

In Episode 105, we break down President Trump's call for patience on Iran amid escalating tensions and high-stakes negotiations. We analyze Sen. Jon Ossoff's fiery Atlanta rally where he sharply attacked Trump and the GOP. Plus, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene blames Baby Boomers as the "most dangerous generation," sparking generational fireworks. We dive deep into the rise of hyper-emotional political tribalism, where feelings about the messenger trump facts, fueled by political correctness, woke ideology, and identity-driven reasoning. Learn how this emotional filter harms honest debate and what the Founders warned us about regarding factions. Independent analysis, no spin.

Over the next few weeks, we'll be exploring the relational priorities and practices Jesus gives for his church in Matt 5.21-48. We believe that Jesus knows best – he's the wisest teacher to have ever lived – and doing relationships as he describes them will always lead to flourishing for us and others. We believe that Jesus modeled all of these relational priorities and practices, showing us in his life how we ought to live. And we believe that Jesus has given us – in his life, death, resurrection, and gift of his Spirit – all the resources we need to live this kind of life together.

Matt and Doug discuss signs of consumer strain in the U.S.—record-low sentiment, rising delinquencies, and high prices—alongside a stock market at all-time highs, comparing the disconnect to historical episodes like Germany's 1923 hyperinflation. They argue official inflation measures are unreliable, deficits and money printing persist, foreign holders are cutting U.S. Treasuries, and gold benefits while mining stocks remain cheap; Doug remains long gold, oil, and commodities and warns the AI/data-center boom may be a debt-fueled bubble. The conversation turns to widening inequality, debt-based consumption tools, weaker job prospects even for top graduates, and fears of social unrest and potential civil conflict. They criticize what they describe as escalating corruption under Trump, including a DOJ settlement structure and extensive trading disclosures suggesting insider activity, then discuss elections, AIPAC/Israel influence, speech taboos, and rising generational and ethnic tensions. 00:00 Everybody Wants Love 00:08 Economy vs Market Highs 01:34 Sticker Shock in America 04:28 Inflation Numbers Doubt 05:57 Treasuries to Gold Rush 07:12 Mining Stocks and ESG 08:36 AI Data Center Bubble 10:32 Haves and Have Nots 12:08 Buy Now Pay Later Living 13:23 Decades of Debt Warnings 17:10 Trump Corruption Claims 17:50 DOJ Settlement Slush Fund 24:25 Insider Trading Allegations 25:50 Epstein and Ukraine Talk 28:59 Elections and Voter Trust 32:17 Israel Influence and AIPAC 36:38 Hate Speech and Taboo Topics 40:32 Tribalism and Protected Classes 44:22 Civil War and Generational Rift 47:22 Wrap Up and Next Guest

3. Headline: The Yellow Creek Massacre and the Chaos of Colonial Tribalism Guest Author: Robert G. ParkinsonThis segment details the 1774 massacre at Yellow Creek, where eight Mingo people, including Logan's brother and sister, were murdered by settlers. Parkinson argues that colonial settlers from Pennsylvania and Virginia acted just as "tribal" as the native groups they fought. Following a British withdrawal from Fort Pitt, a power vacuum led to violent jurisdictional disputes. Despite Logan's subsequent claims, the actual perpetrators were a group of settlers that did not include Michael Cresup, who was miles away at the time, though he had previously encouraged frontier violence. 31803

Michael Morris joins James Smith to dismantle the popular myth that tribalism is humanity's curse. A renowned cultural psychologist and Columbia Business School professor, Morris argues that our tribal instincts aren't hardwired hatred for outsiders, they're the very adaptations that allowed humans to outcompete Neanderthals, build civilisations, and cooperate at scales no other species can match.

8. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. This final excerpt examines how the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the erosion of citizenship. Hanson argues that the pandemic empowered the unelected—symbolized by Dr. Anthony Fauci—to shutter small businesses while favoring big corporations like Walmart. He claims the "Zoom culture" allowed elites to remain safe and compensated while the working class faced the virus. Additionally, Hanson discusses the globalization of the crisis, noting how international figures initially protected China's narrative regarding the Wuhan lab. He concludes that the pandemic response demonstrated a profound failure of "the science" and a massive expansion of bureaucratic control. (8)1980 LA

1. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. Hanson explores the classical importance of the middle class as the bedrock of a stable republic, drawing from Aristotle's view of self-reliant citizens. He argues that the historical strength of the American middle class—rooted in property ownership and autonomy—is being undermined by a "hollowing out" into two classes: the fabulously wealthy and a dependent "peasant" class. Hanson cites the Obama administration's figures "Pajama Boy" and "Julia" as symbols of a new state dependency that replaces Jeffersonian independence. This shift is particularly visible in California, where high taxes and regulations drive out the middle class. (1)1940 LA

2. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. This segment examines how eroded borders and lax immigration laws threaten the concept of citizenship. Hanson critiques the 1965 Heart-Celler Act for replacing meritocracy with proximity to the border and family ties, leading to a massive influx of illegal residents. He describes the 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli Act as a "disastrous" failure where promised border security was never delivered in exchange for amnesty. The discussion highlights how remittances to Mexico and the political "flipping" of states through demographic shifts have prioritized global interests and partisan loyalty over the traditional duties of a sovereign nation.

4. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. The focus here is on the "unelected" administrative state, which Hanson claims operates beyond democratic correction. He uses the "raisin administration committee" to illustrate how bureaucratic agencies can seize the fruit of a citizen's labor. The discussion explores the "Deep State," defined as a permanent bureaucratic class that holds contempt for elected officials and citizens alike. Hanson describes "La Resistance" within the government, where officials like James Comey and Andrew McCabe allegedly used their power to undermine a presidency, viewing themselves as "heroic" resistors rather than public servants subject to the law. (4)1941 LA

5. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. This file addresses "evolutionaries" seeking to alter or bypass the Constitution to achieve political goals. Hanson defends the Electoral College, noting it prevents nationwide fraud and forces candidates to engage with the "hinterland," while progressives seek to nullify it via the National Voting Compact. He critiques the avoidance of the Senate's treaty powerin deals like the Iran nuclear agreement and the shift toward proportional representation in the Senate, which would ruin its role in slowing radical change. Finally, he warns against court-packing, viewing it as a direct attack on the judiciary's legitimacy. (5)1940 LA

Do you remember the children's book, "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day"? That title also sums up what most Americans think about Trump's new war with Iran. Kaitlyn explains why the war is immoral based on Christian theology, Phil channels Ezra Klein to define America's new "heads on pikes" foreign policy, and Skye says the war fits Donald Trump's long pattern of laziness and impatience. Then, Preston Sprinkle is back to discuss his latest book, "From Genesis to Junia," about his journey to determine what the Bible really says about women in leadership. Also this week, Americans were the only people in a worldwide survey to say most of their fellow citizens are bad people.
