Today Ben Weingarten launched a new podcast, Big Ideas with Ben Weingarten, of likely interest.
Big Ideas with Ben Weingarten features compelling long-form conversations with exceptional thinkers and doers -- primarily though not exclusively of a conservative/libertarian bent -- on the most critical ideas and issues of our time, and all time.
The podcast aims to inject a counter-narrative to the prevailing progressive orthodoxy, and elicit deep insights on fundamental questions ranging from national security to economics, and philosophy to culture – fostering timeless discussions on what really matters, rather than chasing the news cycle.
Here are the inaugural episodes:
Episode 1 - Heather Mac Donald on Identity Politics, Multiculturalism and Criminal Justice [Listen]; [Show Notes & Transcript]
Episode 2 - Andrew Klavan on the Criticality of Conservative Competition in Culture, Progressivism and Free Speech [Listen]; [Show Notes & Transcript]
Episode 3 - Andrew C. McCarthy on Lessons from the Blind Sheikh Terror Trial, What Animates Jihadists, Why U.S. Middle East Policy Persistently Fails and the Imperative to Collapse Iran’s Regime [Listen]; [Show Notes & Transcript]
