Chris Buskirk talks with Sohrab Ahmari about his new book The Unbroken Thread. They discuss how Sohrab became a Roman Catholic, how having a son made more acutely aware of his responsibilities to his posterity, the problems of liberalism, and the kind of America he'd like to see.

We discuss the challenge of China, why this isn't Cold War 2.0, why American needs to pursue self-sufficiency rather than confrontation, and why testosterone is dropping. All of this at the TPUSA SAS 2020.

Anna joins me to discuss how modernity broke civilization, denatures and degrades humanity, and how nice she is IRL. We also discuss the state of art and architecture, the desirability and necessity of religious revival, and living in a tiny house in Google's parking lot.

Malcom Kyeyune joins me to discuss the decay evident in America's political system, where class analysis is insufficient and why understanding cultural divisions as caste divisions may be more helpful. We also discuss the increasing fragility in the system and the perceived (but not real) lack of agency built into process-based politics.

Blake Masters joins me to discuss the great stagnation, lessons learned since the beginning of the Trump era, and how to build a political movement focused on improving the lives of the middle and working class. Blake is the CEO of Thiel Capital and co-author with Peter Thiel Zero to One.

Hillbilly Elegy, the Ron Howard directed biopic based on JD Vance's best-selling memoir is out in theatres & on Netflix. JD and I talk about what he learned about family, friendship, loyalty, and faith and how that informs his view of building a better America.

In this episode of The Chris Buskirk Show Michael Anton joined Chris to discuss what's at stake for America. Are all politics regime level politics now? Can American as we understand it survive Blue Caesar? And why, as always, California shows the potential for a future, one-party American dystopia that provides luxury for the few and decay for the many. We begin with a discussion of his new book, called The Stakes: America at the Point of No Return. Available on Amazon: https://amzn.to/35iqFRy
