Episode 260: Most Americans Need Think Locally Act Locally Education Sep 25, 2019

Show notes

Donald Trump is facing impeachment. Climate alarmists are twerking in DC. The Republicans in Washington are still spineless, and the Democrats are lunatics, and I say to myself, what a wonderful world. Why? Because none of that matters. I adopted a think locally, act locally mentally long ago. Most Americans, however, do not share the same attitude as evidenced by a recent poll. They can't even name one local elected official. This is the problem and your job is to educate them. I explain in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Episode 259: Another Leftist Blames the South Sep 18, 2019

Show notes

The Washington Post published a piece by journalist Eve Fairbanks a few weeks back titled, "The 'reasonable rebels.'" Guess what? Everything we hate about American politics, particularly the rhetoric from the right, is because the South ruined America. That's right. You really can't make up this kind of stupidity, but Eve Fairbanks tried. You see, there is really nothing to modern right wing political discourse. It's all just repackaged Confederate drivel. There is much to take apart here. I discuss her positions and arguments in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Episode 258: Guelzo's Reconstruction Gaffe Sep 10, 2019

Show notes

Professor Allen Guelzo has a new video at Prager U "explaining" the "good, bad, and ugly" of Reconstruction. Anyone that has watched a Prager U video knows where this is headed. I laughed through the entire six minutes. Guelzo has a history of South hating rhetoric, and he is a Lincolnian's Lincolnian. This guy never met a war he didn't like, an occupation he didn't see as necessary, or a centralization effort that was not worthy. I take apart his silly little video in this episode of The Brion Mcclanahan Show. This one was fun to make. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Episode 257: Do the States make people hate each other? Sep 06, 2019

Show notes

Professor Donald Kettl has an interesting spin on the current partisanship in America. In his mind, the States are driving conflict. Why? Because they are passing legislation other States don't like in an effort to push an agenda. Sounds like history to me. It also misses the point. The only way this would create conflict is through nationalism. I explain the real issue in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Episode 256: Professor Cries Over Trump Sep 04, 2019

Show notes

Rutgers Professor Ross Baker wrote an opinion piece in the USA Today crying over Trump's impact on the executive office. This is pure leftist derangement hysteria. As I discussed in the last episode, Trump is a symptom of the disease. If Professor Baker is just now coming to the conclusion that the executive branch is broken, where has he been for the last three decades? I take apart his piece in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Episode 255: Has Donald Trump Screwed Up America? Aug 29, 2019

Show notes

I have probably been asked this question a thousand times. Has Donald Trump screwed up America? I have held off answering it for a while, simply because his term is incomplete, but I thought I could partially answer it today with the same criteria I used to rate the other presidents. Trump is a symptom of the disease. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Episode 254: The 1619 Project and John C. Calhoun Aug 27, 2019

Show notes

The leftist 1619 Project is perhaps the worst piece of popular history to hit the market since Bill Oreilly's "Legends and Lies," and that was just a few months ago. This seems to be trend. Produce some idiotic drivel for your echo chamber to either sell books or sell newspapers. Except the progs don't usually waste much time commenting on Bill Oreilly history and for good reason. It's awful. They both share one thing in common, however: a disdain for the South and the Confederacy. In that way, they are two nationalists in a pod. The neoconservatives can't help the left bash the South enough. Which brings me to a piece in The Federalist on the 1619 Project and John C. Calhoun. This thing has serious issues. I discuss the piece and the Project in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Episode 253: Little Jemmy and the Gerrymander Aug 21, 2019

Show notes

Politico ran a piece the other day slamming Gerrymandering because it almost prevented Little Jemmy Madison from being elected to the First Congress. The horror. The piece was typical Leftist nonsense with a bit of hysterical hyperbole and a scattering of incongruous arguments. And it was written by a "journalism" professor. Go figure. I take it down in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Episode 252: The 538 Political Confessional Aug 19, 2019

Show notes

The leftist website Five-Thirty Eight has recently produced a column titled "Political Confessional" where people submit "forbidden" political thoughts. This is standard leftist fare, but one was intriguing: "The Man Who Thinks The U.S. Is Better Off As A Bunch Of Separate Countries." Now for those that listen to my show, this is just an everyday conversation, but not to the subject of this article. I discuss the article and some of the idiotic statements in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Episode 251: The Cornerstone Speech Aug 16, 2019

Show notes

Alexander H. Stephens's "Cornerstone Speech" is perhaps the most infamous speech in the 19th century. It is cited by every SJW group as clear "evidence," the "smoking gun" that it was slavery, slavery, and slavery that drove the Confederacy. Is this true? The speech offers a clear example of "contextualization," but not in the way the SJWs like to promote the idea. I discuss the speech and the CSA Constitution in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com
