Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to Yaron Brook about the decline of Western civilization; the rise of pro-Hamas protests and the moral collapse of universities; why he is pessimistic about the future of both the Republican and Democratic Parties; how woke ideology and failed leadership have eroded support for freedom, capitalism, and individual rights; why Western elites enable anti-Western movements; why Donald Trump's tariffs have harmed the average American and destroyed the progress made in free markets; why the inevitable failure of Zohran Mamdani's socialist policies in New York City won't be enough to convince young Americans that socialism doesn't work; the danger of radical Islam in America; why woke ideology has not gone away but is instead mutating into a different and more dangerous form; the influence of China and Russia on global instability; and Yaron's belief that innovation, freedom, and reason can still restore hope for America's future; his warning that growing chaos may lead to an authoritarian backlash that could destroy freedom in the name of restoring order; and much more.

Send us a textIn this final episode of season three of Queerly Beloved, I drop in with Yaron “Dashboard” Schweizer: a community weaver, theatre maker, and director of Chinkapin Craftstead. From kibbutz days to the Eggplant Faerie Players to a hand-built, off-grid life in rural Tennessee, Dashboard has been practicing the art of community living for decades. We start with a conversation about the tender tension of our time: holding grief and rage without losing levity, and how joy can be a sustainable form of resistance.About Our GuestYaron “Dashboard” Schweizer has been committed to community living and organizing—and to theatre acting and directing—for most of their life. They lived on a kibbutz as a young adult, studied acting in New York City, and moved to rural Tennessee in 1994. A former member of the Eggplant Faerie Players, Dashboard toured nationally with multiple shows. In 2004, they and their partner joined friends in a hollow near Woodbury, hand-building their off-grid home. Dashboard now serves as director of Chinkapin Craftstead, a nonprofit queer arts organization uplifting queer, trans, and BIPOC voices.

Which cities are a 'must-do'? When I talk about Rio, friends give dire warnings on security. Is it so bad that I should stay away from Rio on my trip?1:03:55 Are you surprised that American businessmen are kneeling to politicians in the year 2025, or does it make sense given the philosophy in the culture?1:05:00 Your comments about the intensification of the Drug War sparked this question: why does the violation of a right beget further violation of rights?1:06:54 Have you ever explored England outside of London? 1:09:55 Is this the modern mixed economy model? Have a few cities where all the wealth and innovation occur, and everyone else in the country lives on benefits?1:10:46 All government attempts to redistribute wealth and income smother productive incentives and lead toward general impoverishment.1:11:09 You really believe the guy making $50k a year can be as happy as the guy making $500k a year?1:15:33 What motivated LP to write DIM? What was he observing in the culture to make him want to put in writing these predictions when things were looking pretty good 15 years ago, when he began writing?1:18:35 What would you do in that situation? How would you deal with Trump as the CEO of a company, knowing he would want to associate with you?1:19:28 Could ARI produce a movie or documentary about Objectivism?1:20:56 This makes a Christian-altruist society very uncomfortable, but isn't the truth that sometimes the strong have to use force against the weak if it's in retaliation for aggression?1:22:06 Is there any hope left for Taiwan? Do you think the world is ready to have TSMC in the hands of the CCP?1:23:13 Aside from health and family issues, I have trouble understanding unhappy wealthy people. Is it value-related? Lack of goals to use the money?1:25:23 We could use a reverse DIM that identifies and celebrates the causes of the Enlightenment. Is there a book out there that does that?

Original Live Title RFK & Miran at Senate; FL Vaccine Mandates; Abortion Pill; Tariffs &Deportation | Yaron Brook Show | September 4, 2025When politics descends into a circus, who's really paying the price? From RFK's Senate drama and Miran's grandstanding to Florida's authoritarian vaccine mandates, America's culture wars rage on. Add in the Left/Right battle over the abortion pill, Trumpian tariff lies, and calls for mass deportation—and you get the perfect storm of bad ideas.Yaron Brook slices through the noise with unapologetic clarity, exposing the irrationality, tribalism, and dangers behind today's politics. Neither Left nor Right escapes critique—because freedom, reason, and individual rights demand honesty.Key Time Stamps:01:15 Free Press07:05 National Conservatism Conference37:05 RFK43:20 Miran45:45 FL Vaccine Mandates49:20 Abortion Pill54:50 Tariffs56:30 Deportation1:00:00 Announcement https://randsdaycon.thebvh.com/Live Questions:1:11:47 Another interesting thing about Rand was that she frequently thought of and identified the motives behind ideas and actions without resorting to psychoanalyzing. Do you think that's difficult to do? What are your thoughts on how to do it?1:13:31 How do you objectively assign a weight to your gut feelings? 1:18:09 Even if you're healthy, is it possible to be consistently happy if you're not wealthy?1:20:51 With Trump everything is horrible, a disgrace, a Hellhole, etc., unless he's responsible for it. I'm highlighting his negativity and malevolence. Do you think that's correlated with skepticism/cynicism?1:22:06 Why do some grow up trying to think in principles despite their education, and others don't?1:23:52 Does the Left have more respect for human rights than the Right? Respect for due process and humane treatment of detainees and prisoners?1:25:46 On yesterday's show, you said: "Ayn Rand didn't convince that many people, but maybe she convinced the most important people". What did you mean by that?1:27:10 When Tom Snyder asked Rand what she meant by selfishness, she referenced self-esteem, and that one should “respect one's mind”. What does respecting one's mind entail?1:29:08 When a crony politician is accused of acting in "self-interest" against the "interest" of the people, what's a better term than "self-interest"?1:30:37 When evaluating selfishness, are people not so much put off by the idea of you pursuing your values and achieving your happiness, but a perceived ugliness of not caring about others?1:32:20 Could hospitals now say, “Want to deliver your baby at Hospital A, B, or C? You must get these specific vaccines for our NICU ward's protection.” ?1:32:50 If the S&P500 booms 4k points after the tariffs are shut down, would Trump reconsider tariffs? Or is he too deep into mercantilism to think otherwise?1:34:00 Are you planning on becoming a genocide scholar?
