Rod and Kale reconnect this week to
discuss decline and fall scenarios, particularly in the context of
a Tanner Greer piece called "Culture Wars are Long Wars (Culture
Wars are Long Wars – The Scholar's Stage (scholars-stage.org))
and how so much Conservative Inc energy and resources has been
deeply misunderstood. Conservatives have waged a political war
while missing the deeper and more deeply consequential culture war.
The "Blue Church" cathedral freak out over Orban illustrates this
two-tier battle.
Nostalgic Conservatism dominates the
second half of the show, and both Rod and Kale point to the power
of enchanted story as a powerful antidote and inoculation against
the deep culture war being waged for our children and our
children's children.
