Recent Appearances (October 2024)

I was honored to appear in the past three months in nine different venues. Programs where I appeared, in order, have been (with links below):

1) With Kruptos, and other luminaries, on the Christian Ghetto Podcast, we talk about America, and what the relationship of Christians is and should be to America.

2) On the J. Burden Show, where I continue my unwise recent tendency toward making predictions, although to be sure, right now my predictions are looking good!

3) With Dudley Newright, of the fast-growing New Right Poast, about the Right cancelling those on the Left. Very spicy.

4) On the American Reformer podcast, with Timon Cline and Josh Abbotoy, where I continue my aggressive election (and other) predictions.

5) Another appearance on one of my favorite shows, Buck Johnson’s Counterflow, where we focus on the arising counter-elite, and my predictions in connection with that phenomenon.

6) With Tommy Salmons of Year Zero, where we talk about the many happenings of the summer of 2024.

7) With Joel Webbon of Right Response Ministries, of power, Christian use of power, and the distinction between private and public enemies.

8) On Alex Murshak’s Hacking State, a wide-ranging discussion, including Foundationalism, tech, money, and advice to the young.

9) And, finally, a second appearance with Kruptos and others on the Christian Ghetto Podcast, about Christians and our relationship to violence.
