Cowgirls and Indians

It would seem to be a no-brainer... but does the America First agenda actually help American interests? Keith and Kris have a lively discussion about America First, about nationalism in general, and about what it ought (and ought not) to look like for today's conservatives.

Keith and Kris discuss the history of racism in the United States, and explore whether the end of American racism lies in its history.

Keith and Kris discuss the history and the future of racism. Is racism a thing of the past? Or is the progressive left keeping racism alive for its own purposes? Kris mentions this video in the podcast, and it is well worth 17 minutes of your time to watch: Charlie Cheon, "What Are We Doing to White People?"

What is ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance)? And what does it have to do with American consumers in the 21st century? Keith and Kris delve into this "socially conscious" investing paradigm, and how the left is using it to terrify companies, subvert the market and force their agenda in the marketplace.

Is tribalism a natural facet of human life? And at what point does tribalism become fanatical, sociopathic and maladapted to living in society? Keith and Kris explore their (somewhat differing) views of tribalism and its effect on modern society - particularly tribalism of the political kind.

As long as there has been money involved in politics, politics has included grifters - people who promise the world as long as you pay them money. Are there grifters in the GOP? Keith and Kris discuss whether this is the case, what role grifters play, and how big their influence is on elections, candidates and policies.

Trust - pretty hard to have a well-functioning society without it. In this episode, Keith and Kris discuss why trust matters to liberty, what creates trust, and what destroys trust. Because what destroys trust, destroys liberty.

Kris and Keith discuss how and why the progressive left stirs up greed and envy in order to pursue power.

Crime in the Progressive Left's America is not what you think it is. Keith and Kris discuss how a nihilistic worldview - and the deliberate disconnection of choices from consequences - shows itself in the criminal justice system.

Kris and Keith discuss one of the most insidious of the leftists' frameworks - Critical Race Theory. What it is, why it's dangerous, and what we can do about it.

"When school children start paying union dues, that 's when I'll start representing the interests of school children." Albert Shanker, former president, American Federation of Teachers Kris and Keith cover how the progressives have messed up education - and why they call it victory.

What does it mean to call yourself a "conservative"? What does that word actually mean? So many people have used the term inaccurately and loosely, the meaning of it has become lost. Keith and Kristina try to define it and make it really mean something again.

What would motivate grown adults to do the cultural equivalent of sticking their fingers in their ears and yelling "NANANANANA"? Because that's really what cancel culture is. But in today's world, this phenomenon is much more than a childish unwillingness to deal with a dissenting opinion. For the progressive left, this is existential. Keith and Kris delve into why this is so.

Keith is a citizen of the Cherokee Nation, and a nationally recognized speaker on the history of the relationship between the indigenous population of North America and the United States government (and the British government, before that).

Keith and Kristina explore the foundations of western culture, from the Greeks to the Constitution, and discuss why the progressive left wants to throw out 5,000 years of thought - and the inevitable perils of doing so.

It's been said before: Keith is more optimistic than Kris. He believes there is an end to what we are seeing, and that once we are out of it, liberty will prevail. He explains how we get there, and the obstacles we have to overcome before then.
