Political science sage Wilfred Reilly, a tour de force through America's media landscape, dissecting the narratives that dominate our airwaves. Our exchange cuts through the noise to concentrate on the news that shapes our reality, from the tangled web of international politics to the 'woke' ideology infusing our academic institutions. Listen in as we untangle the implications of these forces on societal issues like anti-Semitism and anti-Western sentiment, and the role of idealism and naivety in fueling political fervor.

We put under the microscope high-profile legal battles and scrutinize the upcoming November elections, considering the legal and political gambits of figures such as Trump.

We cap off with a foray into humanity's history of bizarre beliefs, offering a sobering reminder that despite our advancements, we're still susceptible to the same old irrational convictions. Join us for an unflinching look at the ideologies that shape our society and the challenges they present.
