Ben and Dr. Kuba analyze the type of conservative nationalism espoused by Ron Dreher, and all the BS that entails. Of particular interest are his claims that critics of Qatar are being culturally imperialist.

Nathan J. Robinson joins Give Them An Argument and Talks to Ben Burgis about poverty and the epic failings of Ben Shapiro’s “recipe for success” that guarantees everyone who follows it not to be poor. There are, as we’ve stated, some huge problems with Ben Shapiro’s theory. And all of his theories.

Mike Davis (best known for books like "City of Quartz," "Late Victorian Holocausts," and "Planet of Slums") was one of the most interesting writers and theorists on the American Left. He passed away earlier this week so we're unlocking Ben Burgis's long conversation with Jacobin editor Micah Uetricht (originally released to GTAA patrons in early 2021) about Davis's life and work. Davis was a massive influence on generations of scholars, writers and activists. Rest in Power.

Ben Burgis revisits his debate with Gavin McInnes, founder of the Proud Boys and general neofascist pig, from spring of 2020. Gavin is successful at making zero compelling arguments and being a horrible, racist human being, and Ben is successful at making sense, making successful arguments, and being a reasonable and normal human being. Ben is joined by Cole James Cash, J. Andrew World, and Cale Brooks.

Ben and crew break down Jordan's wild, meandering analysis of Ben Shapiro's (sadly) popular new rap song. Jordan spends time hating on wokeness, the concept of gender, and "feminine type" men, while praising poetry and the American flag.

No episode tonight--sorry about that--but Ben Burgis is going to be taking Q&A questions from the chat for about an hour and other people will be making appearances! Should be a good time.
Order Ben's new book! For much of the last couple weeks it's been the #1 New Release in Atheism (and #3 in History and Theory of Politics) on Amazon, which was nice to see, but instead of there order it from worker-owned Red Emmas bookstore:
