This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.comKruptos is a writer, podcaster, and Twitter poster. He joins me for a broad discussion on North American politics and Jacques Ellul. To begin, Kruptos recounts his intellectual journey. We then consider the differences between Canadian and American politics. What effect, if any, have President Trump’s tariffs and threat of annexation had on the upcoming Canadian election? Kruptos offers a sympathetic, though not entirely uncritical, outsider perspective on Trump. Toward the end of the first half, we ponder whether the tariffs were in fact 5D chess as some have claimed. In the second half of the show (available to subscribers), we consider the many ways the right has changed since Trump came down the escalator in 2015. We explore how the dissident right has changed over the years, particularly since Trump won reelection. We then switch gears to discuss the French philosopher Jacques Ellul. Kruptos provides a summary of his main ideas. What does the term technique mean within Ellul’s work? How do his ideas on technology relate to propaganda? Tune in to find out.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.comI’m joined by Finnish Twitter poster Bleppsama for a discussion on the Ukraine war. To begin, I ask Blepps if the war is subject to the same level of political polarization as it is in America. He explains why Europeans – liberal or conservative – tend to support Ukraine on average. Next up, we discuss demoralization, with Blepps offering some constructive advice for online right-wingers who have given in to it. We discuss the need to have a positive vision for the future, even if it’s a bit idealistic. Later, I ask Blepps what’s best for Europe: defeating Russia or prolonging the war in the hope that Ukraine reclaims its lost territory? In the second half, available to subscribers, we consider whether Trump urging Europe to cover its own defense could benefit the continent. I then ask Blepps if this might result in more Chinese influence in Europe. Switching gears, we discuss Russia’s territorial ambitions. Before the episode concludes, I ask Blepps if Putin’s regime is domestically secure.Follow Blepps on Twitter

He joins me for a sprawling discussion on the history of American identity. To begin, Lafayette shares his ideological journey. We then move on to our main topic: identity. What is it? I ask Lafayette about how his conception of American identity differs from Vivek Ramaswamy’s. This leads to a discussion on the problems with a purely ideological national identity. We then explore the racial and ethnic dimensions of historical American identity and consider their relevance to our country today. In the second half, we discuss the role religion – specifically, Protestantism – has played in shaping America. Next up, the American creed. How has it changed over the years? We then consider how American identity has eroded over time. That being the case, what are we to do?

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.comPericles Abasi is an attorney, alpha male, and prolific Twitter poster. He is engaged to a woman. He joins me for a broad discussion on his posting career, Trump, the Harry Sisson scandal, and the future of the Democratic Party. To begin, I ask Perry how he came to be such a fixture of right-wing Twitter. This leads to some reminiscing on the 2024 election—in particular, the Republican primary. We then learn a little more about Perry. How did he lose hundreds of pounds? Where did he meet his fiancé? (Hint: on Twitter). Next, we shift gears to discuss what one might call the alpha male mindset. Perry explains that there’s more to the label than humor and irony. In the second half of the show (available to subscribers, link in reply), I ask Perry an important question: Is Harry Sisson an alpha male? His answer might surprise you. We talk about the Sisson leaks and consider whether he will be canceled. Was it an op to dispel the gay accusations? This leads to a broad discussion on the role (if any) masculinity plays in the Democratic Party. Later, I ask Perry whether the Democrats will moderate ahead of midterms and the 2028 presidential election. And if they attempt to do so, will it even work? Tune in to find out.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.comIsaac Simpson is a professional marketer, writer, and podcaster. He joins me for a broad discussion on art, public relations, and politics. First, Isaac recounts his intellectual journey. This leads to a discussion on marketing. Isaac offers a conservative perspective on the industry shaped by firsthand experience. We then talk about the vibe shift underway in America. Has this led to more artists and creative types defecting from the left? Next, we argue that Anora was not a good movie. Toward the end of the first half, we explore the relationship between art and politics. In the second half of the show, available to subscribers, we shift gears to discuss Edward Bernays. Who was he? What were his main ideas? This leads to a broad discussion of public relations and mass media. What role does patronage play in marketing? Before the show concludes, we discuss how these ideas relate to right-wing politics.Follow Isaac on TwitterSubscribe to Isaac’s SubstackWILL

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.comDr. Nathan Cofnas is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow in the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Cambridge. He joins me for a broad discussion of his ideas. To begin, Nathan tells us about Cambridge’s attempts to cancel him. We then discuss why, in his view, conservatives have failed to effectively oppose wokeness. Nathan argues that hereditarianism is the only way forward. I then ask if leftists could accept hbd without altering their ideological framework. And what of normal people? Would the masses ever go along with hereditarianism? Switching gears, we discuss whether civil rights law is in fact the origin of wokeness. Nathan argues that it is not. Toward the end of the first half, we begin our consideration of what Nathan has termed “the right’s stupidity problem.” In the second half, available to subscribers (link in reply), we continue our discussion of the right's stupidity problem. We then switch topics to the so-called "Jewish question." What is it? This leads to a discussion of Nathan's debate with Kevin MacDonald, and why both liberal speech restrictions and right-wing Jew obsession render a sober discussion of the issue difficult. Nathan argues that any political movement, right or left, that isn't explicitly anti-Semitic will attract Jewish people. We then consider the unique post-war historical circumstances that led American Jews to lean left on political and cultural issues. The show concludes with Nathan offering a few thoughts on the hereditarian revolution, which, he argues, "hasn't been tried."Follow Nathan on TwitterSubscribe to Nathan on Substack Nathan’s website

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.comDr. Jason Richwine is a political commentator and author. He holds a PhD in Public Policy from Harvard University and is a resident scholar at the Center for Immigration Studies. Jason joins me for a broad discussion on immigration and American politics. We begin by discussing Jason’s background and cancellation. What happened? I ask him if the right has moved beyond cancel culture. We then consider Trump 47’s progress on immigration so far. Are mass deportations happening? If not, how much of that can be blamed on ICE’s budgetary limitations? I then ask Jason about the border wall. Is that still happening? In the show’s second half (available to subscribers), we continue our discussion of illegal immigration. Jason argues that immigration, legal or illegal, has many of the same consequences. We then discuss and refute several arguments made in favor of cheap foreign labor. How does mass immigration relate to the growing phenomenon of men opting out of the labor force? Shifting gears, we consider legal immigration. What will the Trump administration do on this front? Toward the end of the show, I ask Jason whether demographics are still destiny, in light of Trump's considerable gains among certain minority groups in 2024.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.comTwitter poster and Exit Group founder Kevin Dolan (Bennett’s Phylactery) joins me for a broad discussion on the birthrate question. To begin, Kevin tells us about his upcoming Natal Conference. (Sign up using the promo code CASEY to get 10% off.) He then outlines the problem: plummeting birthrates in nearly every country. Why is this happening? Kevin argues that most explanations for this phenomenon are inadequate and offers his own theory. This leads to a consideration of several commonly cited culprits, including technology and money. In the second half, available to subscribers, we continue our discussion of the economic factor. Does offering financial incentives work? Sort of. But as Kevin explains, there is a ceiling for these interventions. We then discuss the role social status plays in the decision to have children. Can we easily reshape American society so that having lots of children is once again high status? Toward the end of the show, we discuss Israel, the only first world country with an above-replacement fertility rate. What’s going on there? Is it sustainable? Tune in to find out.

To begin, we discuss Forney’s intellectual journey. We then talk about Trump 47 so far. Why has it proven so much better than Trump 45? What’s different this time around? We then make the case against accelerationism, explain why you can’t choose your elites, and ponder what will come after Trump. In the second half, available to subscribers, we confront the "dissident right" term. Does it still have any value? Should it be discarded? We then talk about how the online/dissident right has evolved over the years. What are some lessons learned? Shifting gears, we consider the role culture plays in politics.

This leads to a consideration of European identitarianism, including how it differs from left-wing identity politics. Shifting gears, we begin our discussion of Trump’s second term.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.comI’m joined by Spergler Acolyte for a wide-ranging discussion on President Trump, America, and Oswald Spengler. In the first half, we begin by hearing Spergler’s origin story. How did he come to be right-wing? Then we discuss Trump’s first week and outline our expectations for the rest of his second term. This leads to a consideration of Trump’s historical significance and a brief review of the history of American citizenship. Shifting gears, Spengler explains why Counterstrike has gone woke. In the second half (available to subscribers), we delve further into Oswald Spengler's work. Was it purely scientific or more of a poetic metaphor? We later discuss Spengler's culture-civilization dichotomy. I ask if decline can be reversed – and if not, what people who find themselves in the late civilization phase should do. Spergler, drawing from Spengler, offers some advice.Follow Spergler on TwitterSubscribe to Spergler’s Substack

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.comEric Kaufmann is Professor of Politics at the University of Buckingham. He joins me for a wide-ranging discussion on wokeness, identity, and immigration. To begin, I ask Prof. Kaufmann about his intellectual journey. Was he always right of center? We then get into his latest book, The Third Awokening. After Prof. Kaufmann defines wokeness for us, we discuss its origins. While some have pointed to civil rights law as the origin of wokeness, he argues to the contrary. In the first half, we also discuss the “woke right” nonsense that has made the rounds on Twitter and the connection between mental illness and wokeness. In the second half, available to subscribers, we continue our discussion of Prof. Kaufmann's third awokening concept before considering how wokeness can be defeated for good. We then shift gears to discuss Prof. Kaufmann's book Whiteshift. He contrasts white nationalism with what he refers to as ethno-traditional nationalism and argues that this recent wave of populism is more about demographics than economics. We also cover several other topics related to immigration and identity before the conclusion of the episode.The Third Awokening: A 12-Point Plan for Rolling Back Progressive Extremism (entitled Taboo: How Making Race Sacred Produced a Cultural Revolution in the UK and rest of the world).Whiteshift: Populism, Immigration and the Future of White Majorities (Penguin (UK) or Abrams (US))Shall the Religious Inherit the Earth (Profile)Eric’s 15-week open online course at the University of Buckingham on Woke: the Origins and Dynamics of an Elite Ideology, which anyone can sign up for at low cost Eric’s new countercultural Centre for Heterodox Social Science at the universityEric’s personal site and Twitter

We begin by covering Trump’s sentencing in the hush money trial. Shifting gears, we consider the floated purchase of Greenland. What, if anything, does America stand to gain from such an acquisition? Is it at all within the realm of possibility? We then begin our discussion of the Los Angeles wildfires.In the second half, we ponder the cause of the fires. Is climate change to blame? We argue that is not – but even if it were, that would not excuse the various policy blunders responsible for the wildfires wreaking such havoc. After covering the various factors at play, we discuss the scourge of looting that breaks out every time a natural disaster strikes.

In the second half, available to subscribers, we continue our discussion of mass immigration. I ask Josiah why the primary goal for certain immigrant groups seems to be growing their numbers in America. This leads to a discussion of the historic conception of American citizenship.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.comI’m joined by writer and YouTuber Morgoth for a wide-ranging discussion on British politics, migration, and nationalism. We begin by discussing British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s recent immigration crackdown. What precisely is he doing – and why? This leads to a discussion of the British right’s response to this surprising development, and the pros and cons of Nigel Farage’s Reform Party. We also discuss the farmers’ protests. In the second half, available to subscribers, we discuss the insanity of the left’s climate change agenda, which amounts to a wealth transfer from the first world to the third. When then consider which European nations are handling the migration problem the best, and which the worst. Switching gears, we explore the concept of nationalism. Despite having arguably left-wing origins, nationalism, Morgoth argues, is the correct response to the crisis the West currently faces. Morgoth’s Twitter, YouTube, and Substack

John offers his thoughts on Trump’s historic victory, and we compare this election to 2016. Which of the two was better? Toward the end of the first half, we begin our discussion of Daniel Penny and Luigi Mangione. In the second half (available to subscribers) we continue our discussion of Daniel Penny. We then shift gears to discuss Luigi Mangione. What motivated him to murder the CEO of UnitedHealth? Was this a political act or the product of mental illness? We then explain why Daniel Penny is a hero and Luigi Mangione simply is not – and why one act is inherently right-wing, the other left-wing.John Doyle on YouTube John Doyle on TwitterSupport John here

I ask Niccolo if Russia and Iran could have done more for Assad. We then get into who benefitted from Assad’s downfall – and who didn’t. We also discuss Niccolo’s Turbo America concept. In the second half of the show (link in bio and reply), we shift gears to talk about the the problem with wishcasting. I then play devil's advocate, offering a counterpoint to Niccolo's Turbo America idea. He explains why America is unlikely to attempt something like the Iraq War (and subsequent attempt at nation-building) again. We also cover China and Israel.Subscribe to Niccolo here

We then discuss the recent election, Trump, and the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

In the first half, we discuss his thoughts on where things stand in the wake of Trump’s historic victory, Gaetz stepping down from AG, liberal capitulation, and the history the so-called dissident right.In the second half, we consider whether the term dissident right should be discarded. Are there downsides to styling yourself as a dissident? Are we still dissidents, even though Trump won the popular vote and every swing state? We then shift gears to critique Francis Fukuyama’s post-election essay, in which he argues that Trump’s victory “represents a decisive rejection by American voters of liberalism.” We explore Fukuyama’s flawed and self-serving intellectual history, and explain why Trump has far more in common with historic American liberalism than what Fukuyama advocates for.
