John Zmirack on the William F. Buckley-Pat Buchanan Relationship
"Know what William F. Buckley thought of Buchanan because I loved Buckley, but I just wonder, were they friendly and maybe disagreed on some things or did Buckley have disdain for Pat Buchanan? They were friendly for a while and then it was sort of a crossroads in the 90s where Buckley basically had to decide is natural review going to continue to be a conservative magazine. I will be morph it into a neoconservative magazine. And for a while, when he retired, he appointed John O'sullivan to be the editor, and it was an authentically conservative magazine. For various reasons, it sort of murky behind the scenes, Buckley decided to fire Gino Sullivan and replace him with rich flowery, and the magazine became a neoconservative rag. To the point where I go entire months without remembering that national review even still exists. And I don't know anyone who reads it. I don't know anyone who takes it seriously. I never see the article shared anywhere. It seems to have as much interest as the daily worker has. But you're kind of you're skipping ahead because I don't know that we want to conflate the never Trump magazine of the latter latter years with what it was then. No, this is what it was turning into. But decided the magazine is going to go in a neoconservative direction. And he got rid of the more conservative traditional conservative people and he brought on people like Jonah Goldberg and David frum who would move it in that direction. And

The Destruction of the News Media
"You know, the clarification and we could bring him back into the show, but the clarification that I think can make that make me feel a lot better was the fact that it's not some crazy three headed monster at the top pulling all the strings, it seems to me that people are just sheep. And once you get the narrative going, it's just going to go out, you know, haywire and in the direction that the leftists wanted to go, is that correct? Yeah, I don't know if that should make you feel good. It makes you feel better than the three headed monster that we can't identify, you know. A mob controlled by George Soros or just a mob. True. True. So now look, it is, we have seen the kind of destruction of the news media over the last 5 to ten years. We've seen them go from being biased to outright political activists and I like to use the analogy. They used to be referees who, you know, you were always playing it in a way game if you're a Republican. Now they're not referees. Now they're not even trying. They are players in the game. And people are starting to figure that out. Most Republicans figured that out, most Democrats still kind of trust these entities. Well, I trust The New York Times. I trust trust NBC and whatnot. That starting to disintegrate in America and we're moving towards a purely partisan press. And that's just something we're going to have to live with. Other countries have had it for years. We used to have it in America. We're getting back to that. And they're going to be replaced by guys like you, who say, look, I have a point of view or some that don't that I trust. I trust a Joe Rogan more than I trust any organization like CNN or even Fox, even people I agree with on that because there are biased players all over the place and sometimes that's good if they're honest about who they are. That's just something we're not seeing too much anymore.

Who Are the Puppet Masters Behind the MSM?
"Ken, can we, can we make this argument? Can we argue that there must be a select few people at the top of the food chain that's controlling all of this? I can not believe that there would be all of these isolated companies reading the same sheet of music. It seems as if there's a few people that control it. And I don't know who these people are. They control it and therefore, as the message goes to them, they go Trump is the bad guy, and then you see all of the mainstream platforms saying that Trump is a bad guy. All of the mainstream media, NPR governments. I mean, just propaganda begins to flow. I mean, do you think that this is just a group of people who hate America and they all happen to be on the same page? Are you think that there's somebody pulling the strings like a George Soros or somebody else that's pulling the strings for this propaganda? You know, I've been in enough high level meetings where I generally don't, I mean, there are various power centers. Of course, I worked in the Murdoch camp for two decades. I generally don't see it that way. I generally see that these people, there is a group think that goes on. A lot of them were journalists loved Twitter. That's why they're freaking out right now. I mean, are you seeing the reactions that they're having to Elon Musk basically saying, I'm going to mildly lessen censorship on this platform. They're saying, I mean, they do their articles and they say, literally, he's going to have blood on his hands. The SPLC had said he was bringing back white supremacy in a big way because of course all of this comes down to racism and whatnot because if you guys can't be protected from hearing bad words from the media class, then all hope is lost, Brandon.

Hey Media, Your Bias Is Showing
"Gentlemen, I got a special guest coming on Ken lacourt. We're going to talk about a media censorship, YouTube, not YouTube, specifically, but Twitter. And how they covered up the Hunter Biden story. And people in power and powerful places that are all I can say, I'm just going to leave it at that. Have admitted that they've covered it up. They've admitted that they've covered it up, David admitted that they've done wrong. It's coming out, you know, we got Elon Musk coming out and saying, look, I'm a release, or at least he's teasing at the fact that he may release email correspondence of upper staff trying to suppress the story of Hunter Biden's laptop. And to be honest, I think that it's shameful that they would do something like that because it then shows their explicit bias. And let me just say this real quick before I bring my guest on, it shows their bias. And it's funny how the mainstream media is more concerned about Elon Musk providing or allowing free speech than Jack Dorsey them suppressing information to essentially affect an election.

The Biden Vote Was for Normalcy, Not Change
"You don't understand anything. You have done no research. You should be ashamed of yourself. However, it's not about the truth, it's about what is presented. And when you look at what has been presented, they presented Joe Biden as this balanced guy, they presented Joe Biden as the person who would take the world back to normalcy, right? Because with Donald Trump came a great president, but it also came a lot of came with a lot of drama. And some people ain't built like you and I, they can't handle that much drama. And so they just want to go back to normal. They don't care who it is. They just want to go because they feel like that they could stop the bleeding if they just get another candidate in office. There would be no more shenanigans on television, CNN wouldn't be bashing Trump every day fear mongering talking about the world is coming to an end. They feel like if they got back in the system of the establishment politician that we will see a different, we will see a different world. And some people just want enormously.

"Both of them are being caused by a massive structural failure to address looming threats. So the scale of disruption that we're living in is a product of bad national management, selfish, and stupid political leadership at the federal level. It's not a natural disaster. It's spiral out of control here because of irrational behavior at high levels of government. And so exactly like runaway climate change, it's the product of a void of political will of reality denialism by the powers that are running the country. It didn't have to be this way. This isn't Ebola. It doesn't have a 50% case fatality rate. It's scope and economic effects are the direct result of basically a failure of national security. And I think there's a very clear, not even a link. It's part of the same problems of our exploitation and abuse of the natural world wildlife animals in general. It's bad behavior on our part and bad policy we make or don't make to prevent that bad. Behavior. Are they use the issues I'm assuming that you're continuing to explore through the non fiction book that you're writing right now? I do. I do explore them. You know, medieval bestiaries were these compendia of animals. And also sometimes minerals and occasionally plants, but stories would be told about them to illustrate good Christian comportment. They were morality tales. And so my book is about all these critters, all these beings that exist in the natural world, but also about us and about myself as an example of us sort of book sort of wants to be a new kind of bestiary, it's not Christian as such, but it does link morality and ethics and even things like love to specific animals and how we see them in the roles that they play in our lives. We should say at this point on a slightly later note that your pug has been participating on the sidelines of this interview, which is I guess one of the benefits of recording a podcast during a quarantine.

"It's also, it's also sort of the framework for the plot of the novel. It's interesting when you talk about child friendly as defining what ends up in a children's Bible because the stories, of course, are still fairly terrifying. I remember getting up to keen and able in my own children's Bible and then being like, all right, I think I'm done here with this here. Book of tales. There's a lot of brutality. But there's not the sort of prophetic apocalyptic gore of the book of revelation. But yeah, of course, even the Noah's ark story is extraordinary and apocalyptic in its own way. Of course, it's sort of a happy ending. If you want to read it that way, where animals get saved. And it's a good people get to live on after the flood. Talk a little bit about the children of the title because, as you said, they're not quite children. I mean, they're mostly teenagers, and they seem very sophisticated. Right, so I've never too interested in developmental verisimilitude with characters. They are sort of hybrid child's adults. As teenagers really are, but the kids in this book, all they do use a lot of swears. Harsh in their language and judgmental, but at the same time they're naturally articulate to a certain degree. And I think because in a sense I wanted to respect their voices, I wanted to make them authoritative and sort of straight guys in the book against the chaotic collective of the parents who are who are objectified generally for, I hope humorous effect, but they're sort of unable to manage their families and their lives and the teenagers and a couple of young children who make up the sort of band of roving humans at the center of the story. They are mature in certain ways, essentially this is a book envisioned for adults to read and I don't, and so I don't feel like I need to talk down to either children and teenagers or to those who are reading the book by infantilizing these because we all know how resilient teenagers can be and how selectively brilliant they can be while also having these blind spots. In the book though, they're sort of forced into a situation where they are more responsible and kind of wise than they adults around them. And I'm curious if you see the book as a kind of indictment of this generation of parents. And I guess I have to include myself in that. Yeah, and I include myself, yeah. So there's a generational schism over climate and extinction that's getting more and more visible to the mainstream. And that's partly because of the gestures of activists like Greta Thunberg, who's just a year older than my own daughter. And young people whose time horizon stretches decades beyond the personal lifetime horizons of those of us who are already. Out of our 20s and 30s. Are the ones who will be so profoundly affected by our generations in action on making sure they have a livable future. And this generation is starting to notice and get angry. And I think the rage is long overdue. And I think it's the only rational response to the threats we face. So this novel is about that kind of righteous anger of the young anger over the looming. Emergencies of extinction and runaway climate change. Because I didn't feel it had been written too much about and literary fiction yet. Anger is what we need. We don't need anxiety management. We don't need therapy. Because the future is going to be a fight. You can't fight without anger. So you've brought up a climate change. This is obviously a book very much about climate change. And in our review, the critic refers to your OG status among writers on climate change. How do you feel about being associated with the term environmental writer? Is that the way you think of yourself? Because you've studied environmental science and have worked in conservation. And I never have thought of myself primarily as environmental in my interests and fiction. It's just that now the environment and the natural world. They're very clearly our life supports. And so I've just always, I've actually always disliked the word environment and environmental. I don't think it's it sounds so dry and stodgy and wonky. But really, what we're talking about is the whole of the world that we co evolved with and our physical life support. And so yeah, I do write, I think increasingly over I'll say the past decade or so I have written more directly about these matters because I think their existential and I can't write around them anymore. For a time, I didn't want to directly address these matters of existence because it's difficult to write about them in a way that's not polemic in a way that, frankly, bearable to read. And so for a long time, I sort of held myself apart and only addressed these climate and extinction crises sort of laterally in the writing. But it was sort of an elephant in the room for me. I couldn't not write about it at a certain point anymore. So yeah, I have become preoccupied. With the failure of our culture to change our way of life to protect our future and the future of the other critters that we depend on. While that is a very serious subject, it certainly isn't dry in this book. There's a lot of humor in it. There's your distinctive style and sensibility, which runs throughout your work. And yet, I have to say this, it does seem like each book that you write is a little bit of departure from the previous book, even though that your style runs throughout. I wonder, do you feel like you're constantly challenging yourself and experimenting and forcing yourself to do something new? Because sweet lamb of heaven, for example, was a kind of thriller. This is very much not that. You put it very kindly. I think I just don't like to write the same book twice because I have a short attention span. So I'm unable to sort of replicate previous books. I'm glad that my style seems consistent in some way. I specifically with this book because in the past, I've tended to write books that are more satirical or lampoon like on the one hand and more oriented toward humor and then on the other hand, books that are less so like sweet than of heaven that really are more about ideas and abstraction and are perhaps more earnest. And so with this book, I wanted to try, I explicitly in my mind any way it wanted to try to write a book that was based on ideas and took as its subject. Things about which I'm passionate, but also not have it be humorless. So I really, my project here was to try to make a serious book that also contained humor and of course we get humor generally by objectifying. And so the parents became my victims. In that way. So in the book, of course, there is this flood this disaster impending end times. And here we are. Your book is coming out in the middle of a pandemic. Obviously, that's not something you could have predicted. I'm assuming. Unless you somehow did, how does it feel to have this particular story out in the world at this moment? Well, you know, it is a kind of direct parallel because in the book there are these epic storms and floods in the pandemic. There's disease, but in real life,

"Of mister Baldwin's writings. And so they agreed to that and it's sort of an interesting backstory that I was able to uncover in the Baldwin archives at the schomburg. In Harlem, what was really interesting, the kind of back and forth between the agents and the publicists and so on. They sort of agreed in principle that Baldwin come and then the first idea that fortune had was to say, you know, invite somebody like Strom Thurmond, somebody who's a devoted segregationist to debate Baldwin. Fullerton doesn't remember exactly what the response was, but he knows it was negative and invited Barry Goldwater who of course voted against the Civil Rights Act and was a different kind of skeptic of the civil rights revolution. At some point, there was another student at Cambridge named Michael tugan, who had met Buckley in 1963, and knew enough about him to know that he was sort of the perfect person for this role. He was a skilled debater. He was a critic of the civil rights movement. So they contacted Buckley, who was on his annual ski vacation in Switzerland and asked him if he would come debate, and he was not one to turn down any opportunity to debate. And he had established and print that he thought Baldwin was as he called them an eloquent menace, and he was eager to take him on. At Cambridge. How did Baldwin feel about Buckley and going up against him? So there isn't as much evidence of Baldwin's kind of reflections on Buckley prior to the debate that I was able to discover. There's no question that Buckley was on Baldwin's radar. And Buckley was a sort of figure that Baldwin was eager to challenge. And one of the things I talk about in the book is in 1962, Baldwin was invited onto the open mind television program to debate James Jackson kilpatrick, who was one of the country's leading salesmen for segregation at very close friend and colleague of Buckley, one of Buckley's go to guys on race. And it was the kind of thing where a lot of Baldwin's friends and handlers didn't want him to do it. You should not sit across the table from a segregationist. You're going to dignify his views by your presence, but Baldwin really felt an obligation to engage with people like kilpatrick. He actually thought that people like kilpatrick and Buckley, they had a great deal of responsibility to bear and the racial violence, the racial nightmare. Is that something that people can watch on YouTube as well or somewhere online? Is that still out there? It's a strange thing. The open mind has an incredible archive. You can actually watch shows going back to the 50s. But they don't seem to have this one. And so I hope there is a recording of it. So what's interesting is that at the schomburg, Baldwin kept a complete transcript of that encounter. It's another thing that hadn't really been written about very much. And it's an amazing just reading it. It's so powerful because it's right after the battle don't miss right after James Meredith is attempting to register for classes at the university of Mississippi and all hell breaks loose. There's violence. And Baldwin begins the show. They're welcome to the show and Baldwin looks at kilpatrick and says, you think there's a difference between men like you who write these sophisticated books and articles defending segregation and the people in those streets committing committing acts of violence. And he says, I hold you, sir, far more responsible than those people in those streets because they are caught in a web of delusion, this delusion of white supremacy and you are weaving that web for purposes that have nothing to do with them. And he says, I accuse you of betraying those white people in the south. You are pursuing your own agenda for your own purposes. And so Baldwin starts out the conversation that way. And then proceeds to kind of play the role of cross examining kilpatrick for the duration of the show and just kind of interrogate him about his white supremacist views. It's an extraordinarily powerful encounter. Yeah, so hopefully I'm hoping with the book coming out. Maybe some of these things will be uncovered in some archive. Somebody has a recording and audio or video recording of that. All right, until then, let's talk about this night in its February 18th, 1965, set the stage for us. Who was there? How is it structured? Who could see it? How public was this? So the debate, although it came together very last minute. So the sort of wheels began turning on putting this night together in January 65 and the actual night of the debate is February 18th, 1965. And so you have packed the union debating hall was filled. I mean, if you watch the video, you can see there's people not only sitting in every spot on the benches and in the galleries, but they're also sitting on the floor, and buckling Baldwin after walk over students as they're going. So you have mostly students, you also have guests to the unions. The students were submitting the students that were there what they call members of the union who had a voting able to vote and ask questions during the debates. But the way this debate was structured was there were two student debaters, one on each side. So the motion before the house was the American Dream as the expense of the American Negro. And so there's two student debaters. One gives a speech on each side of that motion. And then Baldwin gets up to speak. And he speaks for about 24 minutes and then Buckley gets up to speak and he speaks for about 29 minutes. And there's no exchange between the two of them, which is one of the things that is in some ways. Unfortunate about the way it was structured. And that may have been due to some of the back room negotiations about what they were willing, what Baldwin's people, especially willing to allow to happen that night. But there is one thing that's left out of the BBC recording that was really fascinating to discover. It's edited. Why are you the one that you can see online? Right, so the one you can see online, the student speeches are edited down and then Buckley's speech is edited by about a third. And one of the things that's edited out of the Buckley speech, the questions that the students asked him. So at the union, like in the House of Commons, students could stand up and the speaker had they could call on the student to a point of information or for a question. And so there's only one of those what they called interruptions in the speech that you see on YouTube. And there's actually about four or 5 more. They're really interesting. The questions that are asked are really good questions, but also Buckley is a master at responding to those questions in a kind of clever way that almost always brings elicits laughter. And he's able to defuse the situation. But yeah, so the Cambridge union itself kept audio recordings of these debates, but they did not have the audio recording of this particular debate. They thought it was lost or destroyed. So I was able to find one of the students from that era who had an old reel to reel, copy of the full Buckley involved with speeches, and he sent it to me from England, and I got it digitized. And so that's available for folks on the audiobook and the full transcripts and as an appendix to the book itself. One of the interesting things about Buckley's speech is that he based it on a piece that was written by Gary wills in the national review. So this wasn't something he came up with organically. I think that might surprise people who are more familiar with wills later work, but most people know that he was early on, protege of Buckley at the national review. What was this piece? What does it say? Why did Buckley choose to base his talk on that? Buckley says that wills is one of the national reviews discoveries. We'll send him a sample of his writing when he's very young. Buckley sees that wills has an incredible talent and brings him on do a lot of reviews for national review and then also to begin writing some essays about religion. And so when the fire next time, of course, emerges initially, the bulk of it emerges in November 1962 as a long piece for The New Yorker magazine called letter from a region of my mind. And when that piece comes out in late 62, the reaction is, it's a literary sensation. People are all sorts of literary folks are responding to it. When the book itself, the fire next time, which collects that piece together with a short piece Baldwin wrote for the progressive magazine in late 62, that book is just this immediate bestseller and there's very few critics have a crossword to say about it. So Buckley sees an opportunity for national review. He's already identified Baldwin as this dangerous threat. And so he says what I need to do is get somebody to write a sophisticated critique of Baldwin for the magazine. And he identifies wills as the right person to do that. Wills is somebody who's Baldwin in the fire next time and that book is dealing with such huge issues, philosophical issues, religious issues. And Buckley recognizes that wills is the writer in his orbit who has the kind of skills to take Baldwin on. Sets down and reads every bit of Baldwin, he can get his hands on, and he writes this piece, what color is God. And the piece itself is much more sophisticated than what Buckley produces at Cambridge. But there's ways in which Buckley was faithful to the will's piece, but will's red Baldwin as somebody who is calling for an overthrow of western civilization. In will says things like Baldwin wants us to raid the libraries and burn Plato and Aristotle and the bibles and so on. And that to me is a really flawed reading of what Baldwin's up to in that text and the rest of his writing. But Buckley takes that and runs with it. It's one of the great mysteries of the book is whether or not Buckley really ever read Baldwin. I don't really know. I think he may have just read other people reading Baldwin and then taking that and

"Greatest in terms of their differences? I think that's true. I mean, maybe not there's definitely a lot of tensions just running through this story. But I think that those moments are really fascinating. We want example is that Baldwin and Buckley are both great critics of northern hypocrisy on race. They will often say that the one line that's used is that Jim Crow is a north is just simply more sophisticated. Baldwin would say that sort of thing and Buckley would say that sort of thing. Of course, Buckley's point was he would say that to get northerners to lay off of the south and Baldwin would say that to get all of us to lay into the north, right? And so those moments, I think, are especially powerful to think about, okay, why is it that Baldwin is looking at somebody particular politician that he really does not trust and Buckley is looking at that same politician who does not trust that person. They have these radically different reasons for that distrust. And I think that's really informative for us. All right, let's jump from their childhood circumstances right to 1965 the year in which this debate, the subject of your book, the fire is upon us, takes place. Where is James Baldwin at this point in his life and career in 1965? Baldwin's really at the height of his fame. So Baldwin published his first novel in 1953 and he published by then three novels go tell in the mountain Giovanni's room and in other country. He established himself as a fiction writer, but he also then published several essay collections and in 1963 the fire next time is published. And that's really a book that Baldwin star was already ascending, but that book sort of sent Baldwin to the height of literary fame. So he's among the most famous writers in the world. At that time, in Baldwin's connection to the civil rights movement, was always a complicated one. I mean, he describes himself as a witness. I mean, his first interactions with the Jim Crow south are as a journalist. He goes down to the south to cover what's happening. The black liberation struggle for particular magazines and publications. And so Baldwin says my job is to write it all down, but of course, feels this sense of obligation to be go beyond writing it all down. Of course, his journalism always has a kind of normative dimension to it. But he says he spends a lot of his life is what he calls it transatlantic commuter living in Europe and living in the U.S.. But he feels a sense of obligation to engage in the struggle. And so by 63, he's kind of identified as a kind of spokesman. He didn't like that label at all. He didn't like most labels. But he really wants to he's engaged in this that both through his fiction and nonfiction writing, what he's really trying to do is provide his readers with a sense of what the world looks like. Through the eyes of a variety of people in the south and also elsewhere in the country who are in the midst of this struggle to change the country. So that's really what Baldwin is up to. So at that moment in 65, at Cambridge, Baldwin is internationally famous. So those students that are packed into that union debating hall. They're really there to see Baldwin because Buckley hadn't quite achieved international fame yet. All right, let's talk about William F. Buckley. Where is he in 1965 in terms of his career? So Buckley by 65 is second only to Barry Goldwater in terms of a sort of face of the American conservative movement. And Buckley had played really this outsized role in shaping what we now call the conservative movement. So Buckley, in 1955, starts national review magazine, which the idea of the magazine was to try to do what progressive magazines had done in their first half of the 20th century. Maxine's like the nation and the republic had done so much to sort of shape the American left. And so Buckley has this idea that there's not really anything that we could call a conservative movement of coherent conservative movement at 55. So he has this idea to use a magazine to bring folks together coalition together. He founds national review and the same moment he's found in national review. The civil rights movement, the latest phase and the civil rights struggle is occurring. The lynching of Emmett Till, the reaction to that, the rest of Rosa Parks, the Montgomery bus boycott. Buckley is very consciously trying to shape a conservative movement, and he has to make a lot of decisions about how the conservative movement should react to the black liberation struggle. How influential is the national review in 1965? What's a circulation like in who's reading it? The national review is a really powerful magazine in by 65. I mean, it's a magazine like a lot of magazines that struggles over the years. That first decade. But really, the role that national review plays, I think is Buckley kind of establishes himself as a sort of gatekeeper for the movement. He's trying to sort of is one of my colleagues puts it edit conservatism, figure out who should be part of the coalition. It should be left out. Certain folks out of the movement like Ayn Rand and eventually Robert Welch and the John birch society. Buckley is really playing this role. People know that the magazine has a sort of outsized role in shaping the movement and figuring out who's allowed to participate in who's not. And so the influence of national review is I think by 65 there's no question it is the most recognized conservative organ in the country. Definitely, although Buckley did not get to play the role that he hoped to play in the Goldwater campaign, he hoped to be a kind of liaison between the conservative intellectual community and the campaign. But he still is playing kind of informal role as a sort of somebody who's promoted. He's a promoter of ideas. He's a popularizer of conservative ideas as one of his biographers calls him to St. Paul of the conservative movement. He's really an evangelist for ID. He's not an originator of ideas, but he's a very good at spreading the ideas. Right. He's not even an originator in this particular debate. We'll get to that. Let's just hear quickly a clip of Buckley from this debate. Be trouble in America where the Negro community is concerned is a very complicated one. I urge those of you who have an actual rather than a purely ideologized interest in the problem to read the book beyond the melting part by professor glaser also co author of the lonely crowd, a prominent Jewish intellectual who points at the fact that the situation in America where the negroes are concerned is extremely complex as a result of an unfortunate conjunction of two factors. One is the dreadful efforts to perpetuate discrimination by many individual American citizens as a result of their lack of that final and ultimate concern which some people are truly trying to agitate the other. Is as a result of the failure of the Negro community, itself. To make certain exists, which were made by other minority groups during the American experience. Interesting you mentioned Barry Goldwater earlier because Barry Goldwater, Strom Thurmond, both of them were original choices to be the person to debate Baldwin. What happened with them? And how did it end up being William F. Buckley? That was one of the first puzzles to solve was how did this happen in the first place? And there really wasn't any detailed account that I was able to find in the existing literature of how did these two guys end up there that night. So really, and it kind of happened by accident in a lot of ways. The union was contacted by Baldwin's publicist. So this is Cambridge union, the students union at Cambridge University

Was Movie Producer Robert Davi Always a Conservative?
"Were you always a conservative, or did you have that kind of Reagan esque transition? Well, my family growing up, there was William Buckley conservatives and John F. Kennedy Democrats. Interesting. And when I was a little kid probably 9 and 11 years old, when JFK ran, I was, my godfather was the head of the Democratic Party for Long Island. And me and my Friends would put in Kennedy things in the mailboxes. And at the same time, we had relatives that were conservative. The other side. But we always discuss these issues. My dad was a knight of Columbus. He gave me two books at that age. None dare call the treason by John stormer and masters of the seat. Now I can take the people that are in the middle or on the left through a sequence where I thought one of my uncles was a demonizing person because he was a conservative. And as you get older, and as I read those books, and as I saw what was happening, I have 6 kids in education in culture, taking prayer out of school, the absolute dissipation of our whole consistent, that frightened me. I saw this incrementally and by the time Reagan came across, of course, it was Reagan, but I mean, I didn't vote for Jimmy Carter. I always had a more conservative understanding. Or let's just say a free understanding. America first understanding, which is what's hurting us today. And

Explaining Buckley's 'Radical Conservatism'
"One of the key exhibits in this case is a quotation attributed to me. In fact, said by me, I take full credit for it. Evidently in nickel hammer's book and it's brought up in an interview that nickel hammer does with political, here's the quote, conservatives need to be, quote, philosophically conservative, but temperamentally radical. And Nicole hemmer uses this to say that here's danesh, he's not a real, well, he might be conservative in a sense, but he is radicalizing conservatism. Now, if Nicole had more paid more attention to my speeches and books in which I talk about this, she would know, and this is kind of a mark of the sloppiness of leftist scholarship these days. She would know that this idea of being philosophically conservative, but temperamentally radical actually comes from William F. Buckley. I was a student a Dartmouth, in which Buckley came to speak. And Buckley raised a very interesting conundrum, an interesting puzzle. He said that conservatism is about conserving, conserving, hanging on, holding on to things that are good and true and beautiful. And in a sense, protecting and perpetuating the best things about a society. But Buckley said, what if you are on a campus and I think he was thinking of Dartmouth but he could apply to his own Alma mater Yale, where the prevailing ethos, the prevailing principles, the ruling authorities, the whole culture, is left wing is liberal. What do you do then? And Buckley's point was, do you just conserve that? You just, you just say that we are going to conserve whatever exists no matter how degraded and debased and horrible it is no. Buckley's point isn't that case you can't be a conservative in the old sense. The old conservative could just look at society and go, I like the way things are going. I'm going to try to make sure they continue going this way for as long as possible. But when things are going very badly and the whole structure of society is awry, Buckley's point is what is the conservative to do. And Buckley's solution was, well, you have to stop being conservative in a sense.

Are The Republicans Going To Blow 2022?
"We have a bunch of results from Republican primaries across the country. And what they are showing is sort of a mixed record of candidate selection from Republicans. This is not been a major surprise given the fact that Republicans very often nominate candidates in what are supposed to be wave years who are kind of sketch. You remember this in 2010. There were a bunch of Republican candidates in what should have been lean our races who seemed out of the box and then ended up losing very winnable races, Republicans have an unfortunate tendency in primaries to select the people who they think are the most passionate. The most potentially game changing. And then those people go on to lose the general election. The famously William F. Buckley suggested that the art of politics when it comes to primary voting is to select the rightmost candidate who can win and very often Republican voters forget that last part of the sentence who can win and they just select the rightmost candidate and understandable mistake. This is complicated by cross currents from president Trump because so much of American politics has now become a litmus test on loyalty. And so when president Trump attacks a candidate, very often, people resonate to the candidate, the Trump endorses, even if the candidate that Trump endorses isn't exactly a person who is likely to win a general election simply because they feel the person that Trump is ripping on is not sufficiently loyal to the cause. There are all these varying sort of eddies in American politics. And what this is amounting to is Republicans blowing the chance perhaps to actually win back the Senate or win a broader majority in the House of Representatives. Yesterday Nate silver is 5 38 switched its projection to forecast for the first time that Democrats will actually keep the United States Senate. That is a direct result of candidate selection by Republicans in primaries ranging from places like Georgia to places like Pennsylvania. Nate silver wrote on Twitter. It seems clear. There's something happening here and move into our Democrats in recent polls isn't just statistical noise. He says that something is probably in part or indeed mostly jobs, meaning the Supreme Court decision to overrule roe versus wade, but there are quite a few factors that will come to look better for Democrats over the past few weeks, including their legislative agenda.

Pete Hegseth and Doug Discuss Confronting the Local School Board
"The things that bothers me the most in our political conservatives, I think we're we get isolated on thinking top thinker. And I say this in this way. We're oscillating on the president, the Senate, the U.S. Congress, maybe a governor, but we fail to see that in our, even in our local communities where we just don't want to think these things are going on. It's the local school boards. You know, if you talk about this, because there'll be some who can't make that option. But what they can do and we've seen over the past year and I've heard you talk about this as well is confront the local school boards. And understand that at the same time moving the children giving that ability to turn. But I've been very disappointed at conservatives. Republicans in particular. There are areas of criminal justice reform, education reform. We as conservatives don't feel like, I mean, what it looks like. I hear other members of Congress and others, they don't all, yeah, I'm for school choice, but I don't want to lead it. I'm for this, but it's like, when did anybody it's almost like we've lost our willingness to realize our history of the buckleys and others that you go out and you confront as an intellectual superiority, the conservative movement. Well, you're precisely right. We have the principles, but they have the positions. And so we think by voting every two or four years, we're going to vote our way out of this problem. And the book thoroughly disavows the reader that this is an effective strategy. It's exactly how we got where we are. And yes, running for school board is a part of the solution. If you don't have an alternative or your lifestyle doesn't provide an option to homeschool or find a classical Christian school, and they are in that public school, then you better be all over it. Or run for those positions to oversee it. But don't go there to be a placeholder and think you're just going to vote and solve everything. You got to be aggressive. You got to be an activist. You have to be involved.

What's New at the Weekend Box Office?
"Tell us about something that people can go see. Well, you know, again, it's a very slow weekend here. It's a very slow weekend because everybody was getting out of the way on the one hand of Doctor Strange. Two weekends ago. And coming up next weekend, of course, is Top Gun: Maverick. Top ten maverick comes out Memorial Day weekend. That's kicking off everyone is very excited for that. But I think folks were also scared of that movie. So it's another, it's another slow weekend at the box office. I went and saw this is just it's not going to be a movie you're going to want to see. I'm going to just warn you off of it right now. I don't want to get the dreaded failure to warn, but there's movie out now called men, it's a horror film. Starring Jesse Buckley as a woman who is grieving. They've lost a husband. But grieving is the wrong word. Her husband is killed himself. He was abusive and she was going to divorce him and he threatened to kill himself and then he went through with it. And the whole movie is essentially, I didn't hate it exactly, but I was vaguely exasperated about it because it is what it feels like is sitting through an argument on Twitter where people talk about in the kind of broadest Twitter terms like the problems with men. What's wrong with men? That's basically the subtitle of this movie. Men. What's wrong with them?

Yoram Hazony on Foundations of the Conservative Movement in the 1960s
"Through kind of what we would consider to be kind of post World War II liberalism. If I were to be honest, in 2014 and 15, I was kind of naive enough to believe that real conservatives were actually small L liberals that we are the defenders of classical liberalism. You push back against this and you kind of also reject some of the fusionism of the 1960s and kind of some of the liberal movements post World War II. For some of our audience that isn't as well read into that. Give them a little bit of a taste of exactly what happened post World War II with this kind of quote unquote neoliberal orthodoxy that set in and how some even self described conservatives would play ball with that. Sure. I mean, the truth is that the conservative movement in the 1960s, which was put together the quarterback was, as you know, was William Buckley. But it was actually an alliance of liberals and conservatives, liberals, meaning people who are people are mostly concerned with individual freedoms and conservatives who are much more concerned with the question of how do we maintain and transmit things from one generation to the next. And the reason for the coalition, I mean, there's lots of times in places where liberals and conservatives were in different opposing political parties, opposing movements. But in the 1960s with the rise of socialism, you know, sort of across the board in America and Britain and other democracies. And the threat of communism, obviously, of the Soviet communism, which was expanding rapidly. So in that situation, the right was kind of reconstituted as an alliance between liberals and conservatives.

Understanding the Voices of Young Conservatives in
"Now, Tom, I am a big believer in holding up younger people. You're one of the younger people, but there are lots of people who are under 40 like Charles CW cook at the national guy Benson. Mary Katherine ham. The conservative movement has to regenerate from George William at Buckley and I daresay myself. I'm 66, right? I can't keep doing this forever. And I don't plan on it. So are you are you biased towards younger voices and how do you vet them for credibility? That's a fantastic question. So I think as we build in, I want both. I want to hear all the different sections because then we have both experienced and that kind of util creativity. But the idea of betting really, I suppose, we have a will have Kelly nyder, who was a college student who was almost physically attacked, actually, frankly, was physically attacked for trying to hold an event on her campus. It's a question of engaging, right? Emailing, talking on the phone, seeing the links to the profile and sometimes you know, you just you've got to roll the dice because this isn't someone who has written somewhere before, but ultimately that's the way it has to go.

"But i went from two homes to basements to addicts forty years of stuff to a tiny honda. Civic full of everything and i have nothing. Alison i don't have. You can say move and i would move in our have nothing. It's so amazing. I want to feel what that is like. I'm i just i am. I clutter owns me. And it's everywhere i must know. What are the books that you kept. Well my favorite book is. Jack canfield the success principles. I love the seven high seven. Highly abbots of successful people. I love wins by rob bell. I have my jesus calling which is a devotional journal. I have great mondays. Which is about a good way to have good corporate america and i did keep all of the secret. The power all of those types of manifesting books. But i tend to get rid of books too so like i'll read one and then i'll get rid of it and if i really like it i'll put it on my ipad. Just a few books that i occasionally like to hold invite possession. Yeah and is a whiteboard behind you. This is a whiteboard because what i'm coaching. I tend to write things on it. People are wondering what we're referring to youtube dot com slash. Alison rosen where you can see that you can see the blank whiteboard. But i know that you're a fan of giant post. It notes right god. Excuse me so these big post and i love. I love post. Its these are big so again compared to like this which is a normal posted. This is my post debt. And i use them for affirmations like my whole wall is these are my best thoughts. These are my best emotions. These are by six priorities. This year. i have my personal mission statement. Would you like to. Oh my god. It's so god okay everybody saw. Hey this'll take thirty seconds. So i wrote this last year okay. I encourage you if you're listening to write your personal mission. Statement because companies do companies have a mission statement. They have a manifesto. It's like this is who we are. This is what we do so as you're listening to be. Think about how you could apply this to yourself. This is who i am. And this is who i wish to be in the world because it makes my day so much easier because if i'm living out of line with that it's like that's not who i wish to be written right there on the wall. So this is my mission statement. I am the greatest love of my life. God is my partner and creating my life on purpose. I live in intentional of minimalism and contribution. I love others unconditionally. Regardless of them. I value deep connections and open minds and hearts. I create time for everything i want to do. My life is full of meaningful work. Ridiculously fun play. i use my emotions as superpowers. I defend the dignity of others and fight for equality. I am actively anti-racist. I am always learning growing evolving into new versions of myself. My purpose is to be an example of joy impossibility. I love that thank you. I love that. Yeah i feel inspired talking to you..

"I was wildly in love with my mother. My father worked a lot. And so i feel like most of my memories growing up where my mother but yeah i love my parents they. I felt very lucky in the parent department. They were just funny. And i always felt loved as a child. I never i never had a care in the world. We had a lovely hold. I felt very taken care of. And and now as a grownup looking back. I feel very grateful. Because i do. I never felt like. I don't know i always felt safe and loved as a child. So as a grownup i definitely realize the value of that. And you said that you realize that you were gay when you were four. Did you ever. How did you feel about that like did you. Did you feel different than other. People are isolated or negatively around that. I always felt different. Like i'm someone who. I've never really. I always have been very connected to myself. And i feel i always felt like i was a little planet like i felt like a really goofy person occasionally in my forty five years old meet someone to be like are kinda like me but in general i don i mean yeah like i mean being gay in one thousand nine hundred eighty one eighty two eighty three like when i was growing up the only images of gay people i would see a tv show called phil donahue and he would have on somebody who was going to kill themselves like gay people to me were suicidal or in the early nineties. They were getting aids so it wasn't that it was pretty scary. And i remember thinking yeah i probably at the thoughts of like i don't want to be gay or maybe i'm not gay actually. Last year i came out as pan sexual. Because i never knew what that was like. I've always liked women like once. I heard what the kinsey scale was. I was like oh. I'm definitely in the middle guy. Never felt totally gay. But i remember coming out as gay because nineteen ninety-five. We made fun of bisexual. People like it was not if you were it was even willing because there's no such thing you there's no way you take peanuts and you could possibly be interested in vagina like it was just. We did were pretty gay. People gay men were very shaming towards bisexual. People and then i married a man so identified as a gay man but now i've been single for five years i don't date. I'm very single. I don't i don't pursue either gender. But i honestly if you said you're going to be with a woman in ten years i wouldn't be shocked like i. I'm not like it's not off the table. Like i don't so that's what i heard about pan sexuality i'm pat is like it's not mail. It's not female. it could be trans. I'm all into that. So when i started seeing people be sexual i was like oh i think that's what i can't so again. It's i'm not that into labels identities. But i feel like that helps me make sense of me and my brain because when i do say gay mad. That doesn't feel like me. Like what i see gay man. I'm like that. There was something a little different about me and i guess that's part of no. I'm not a gay man. I i m pan sexual you know to come to that realization at forty four years old is hilarious. I never gave myself the time or space to process thinking about something like that..

"It seemed to me like there was almost envy and admiration in her and maybe i'm projecting inner voice when she's like you. Did you left it behind. Because i think that there are. I think everyone who makes content wonders. What would it be like. Even if you're happy you wonder. What would it be like if i were a civilian fight if i left this behind and i was trying to figure out earlier like what what is it. What's the grip. I mean aside from money. I think it's this idea that like there's something that makes you feel special if you're making content and it's like oh i'll just be a regular person. Yeah it's a lot of external validation. It's a lot of emails from producers. Who want to work with you. You get offers to do a book deal. Someone like grace's so if grace ever. Here's this high grades i love you. Graze and so talented grazes. The bestselling author grace has a great pod gracie is going to do stand up. Grace can do a million things that are alive without making you. Videos like youtube is a small piece of graces puzzle of her success and her makeup. So but yeah like. I just i don i think it is. It's easy external validation. It does it. Also but here's the thing like if i had my mindset now i would have been like i've adding values people's life people love me. They think i'm making a joke about miley cyrus is just. It's hilarious an important as me doing coaching work. You know so. I if i did it now i would be able to attach more meaning to my comedic persona. I think it's like anything that feels like. I feel the same way when i stopped drinking alcohol. I feel like i got out of a cult. I felt like oh my god. I don't have to drink anymore. Thank god what. I got off of youtube. I feel this sense of relief of like. Oh i don't have to do. I don't have to engage with people anymore and small dog and comments actions and again. It's lovely but i don't have to do that and i don't know like an i don't know i had something else. I was thinking about the content. They i do. I do instagram stories. And that is a couple of thousand people. Watch that but that's just fun. They got there if you did like. What the vodka. New are currently still interested. Michael buckley you could follow me on instagram and do stories every day. I say good morning..

"I was making lots of contents so one day in two thousand and twelve but the algorithm changed and again. I'm not play big youtube. I'm not blaming the algorithm. This is not a victim story. But i used to bake twenty or thirty thousand dollars about one. I made like eighteen hundred dollars and that was the moment i saw so people. Always they talk about the ad pakalitha or the whatever. I saw the moment for making easy lots of money to no money very quickly so it was a combination of the youtube. Algorithm did change in my earnings did take a hat. I also i did have lots of you. Know a lot of sponsorships that was committed for a year. So i had lots of like you do this. We pay you twelve thousand dollars about to do this. You do this. We pay you why it plenty of money coming in other places so that's why it didn't even matter like by youtube views were low. My ad was low. But i was still making enough but again there. Were still a disconnect. Between why am. I stay because it. Because i'm embarrassed that it's gone so terribly and that was the truth for a couple years. I felt embarrassed. I was like really because really. I'd go on youtube. I baker video. I'd have a million subscribers. I'd get no views. People would write. What happened to this guy. Until right and i wasn't that upsetting but it was the truth. It's like you've got to go do something else and so you know. I'm so grateful that. I had those years where i was kind of a mass and in confusion and an overwhelming. Oh woe is me and now being on the other side of it. It's like those were the most important years of my life like life is very easy. What you're making six hundred thousand dollars a year and people think you're sexy and going to have a line of people waiting for you and when you go to. I always say. I love what i know what it's like to be in ahead. I know what it's like to post a video on youtube and get hundreds of thousands of us right away ten thousand comments. Everybody's engaged and i know what it's like to post a video and get like ten comments so again and i know what it's like to go to bitcoin and thousands of people there cheering for you and i know what it's like when they have a big room in ten people show up and you're standing there like this is where i'm at so i'm so grateful that i know what it's like to be a head and i know what it's like to be flopped and that's the thing as a coach. I coach happiness. I co kolchuga. That's like i'm here for the human experience. So i like the good the bad the ugly the gross. So i think about those. Couple years of drunkenness and messiness and those were some of the best years of my life as i evolved into this different version of myself if you had if the the hits had continued. Would you still be there. So that's an interesting question. I i don't know how to answer that because i don't ever play like what if i were still married. What if i lived in connecticut. I don't really play those games with. I would like to think. I would have moved on because i really wasn't satisfied. I wasn't fulfilled. i wasn't enjoying it. I had many years where i would make video. And then i just couldn't wait to go do something else versus now coach for eight hours a day and i'm high as a kite like i'm i have so much dopamine and so much joy and i can't so versus you know when i could be a better youtuber now i could i have the mindset for it..

"I took it so seriously. I was so into it. It was like escape from. I had an office job. And i had one husband and i just i loved having this just for me like it was fun and so i started doing that. And that in two thousand six at my cousin who worked at the little public access thing is my volunteer helper of started putting clips on youtube and eventually someone like watched one of them and it was two hundred thousand views. And that's what my brain was like. Oh this is something joe. Maybe i don't even need to be on tv. I know about three hundred thousand. People are watching fox. If i get two hundred thousand views like this baby. I will just be on the internet and so beginning in january of two thousand seven. I started posting five days a week. I four as the what the buck show. I always i really was one of the first people having a show on the internet. I think there was rocket boo. I think there was like one was a series. But i was definitely one of the first if not the. I like talking head deliberating. A hot take on screen. And i did that and then i got the youtube partnership program became very successful quickly and i started making money like the second year and so by two thousand eight. I had an hbo development deal. I was working with sony. They were paying me lots of money to promote things. I was so funny too. I would reach out to people and say nobody knew anything about marketing. Nobody was a youtube manager. There wasn't a a full screener of maker studios. There was just me reaching out to sony.

"I know i talked it out. I've blocked it out. I was there. And i also don't even think i realized that it was fox news because i was it was the first place so they found me on youtube. They sent me emails. They set me car service to connecticut. Which like two hours away. i would show up. I would talk about things. And then maybe a year later people will be like. Oh why are you going on fox news like a car. I did pilots for them. I remember they did that. Lipson ears with courtney friel and i would talk about gossip. I don't. I don't remember i also fun fact about me. I took a lot of ambien from two thousand three until two thousand twelve. So i definitely. Some things are foggy. But i really. I've seen clips. i know. I've got clips i remember. I've we probably were on wants together. Bring about something remember. I know i have a similar thing with with fox because i am outspoken. Now but i was also. I've always been not always. I've i was gonna say i've always been liberal however my husband. Who is like incredibly progressive has told me that liberal to people who are really progressive the term liberal doesn't mean we think it means. Have you heard this too. i have in. That's why it's so weird. How in two thousand and twenty one. I feel like reexamining. All the language of how he identify like even in christiana christian and recently on facebook. I updated it. I'm a progressive christian. Because i want you to know. I a progressive christian. There's a difference at like what you're saying like right like oh. I'm a liberal. Those are different people than the people who support the progressive causes. So right i understand the the language of it right. So i've always not benefactor person even back back then i wasn't either but i've become i feel like it's more problematic to say that you've appeared on fox now and i did like a ton of shows because they they were really night. Everyone i dealt with there was really nice. They wanted to put me on tv. They sent a car fund. Make up what's not to love. Yeah i had a great experience i liked. I loved by producer. I love the co host of the guy. Who's on the five now greg. Whatever his name is who he was lovely to me. He laughed at everything. I said we had a lovely time. I had a great experience. It is interesting to see..
