Ep. 700: Calhoun for the 21st Century Sep 08, 2022

Show notes

Clyde Wilson's new book on John C. Calhoun is highly recommended, much more so than Robert Elder's recent biography of the South Carolina statesman. I explain why.

Ep. 699: Will a Third Party Change the 2024 Election? Sep 07, 2022

Show notes

David Brooks at the New York Times believe a third party could alter the 2024 election, particularly if both parties nominate "extreme candidates." Will that make 2024 like 1860?

Ep. 698: Is "Real America" Progressive? Sep 06, 2022

Show notes

Max Boot thinks "real America" is in fact blue America, not MAGA America. Is this correct?

Ep. 697: Brandon's Lincolnian Speech Against MAGA Sep 05, 2022

Show notes

Joe Biden's anti-MAGA speech has been either panned or praised. But no one has focused on the purely Lincolnian nature of the speech. In fact, any neoconservative or Straussian could have written it. Poor optics aside, Biden's speech is the result of the dangerous Lincoln myth and the recreation of America by the Radical Republicans.

Ep. 696: Is the Modern Progressive Left "Neo-Confederate"? Sep 01, 2022

Show notes

Victor Davis Hanson's strange interpretation of American political history leads him to believe that modern progressives and Old South Democrats are siblings. You see, the modern left are simply "neo-Confederates" in disguise. This is because Hanson has no self-awareness.

Ep. 695: The Old South Shall Rise Again? Aug 31, 2022

Show notes

Victor Davis Hanson has a strange fascination with the Old South, at least it appears to be strange. In fact, Hanson's arguments about the Old South echo another group of Republicans from the 19th century. This makes Hanson they very thing he rails against: a leftist.

Ep. 694: How the Radical Republicans Changed America Aug 30, 2022

Show notes

The 1850s-1870s Radical Republicans are the most important group of people in American political history. Why? Because they changed the way Americans think about the United States, both historically and into the present day. Their vision of America has become the accepted narrative of American history. This is why I dedicated an entire class to some of the more prominent members of this group at McClanahan Academy and why you need to understand these men.

Ep. 693: The Constitution is Broken? Aug 30, 2022

Show notes

Two Ivy League law professors argue in the New York Times that the Constitution is "broken" and cannot be fixed. Their solution? Forget and ignore the document. They are saying out loud what they have been doing for years. I explain on this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Ep. 692: Are Clown Candidates Ruining the GOP? Aug 25, 2022

Show notes

A red wave should be coming in November 2022, but prospects for a Republican takeover of the House and Senate appear to be dwindling. Why? Could it be due to "clown candidates"? Perhaps.

Ep. 691: Presentism Cancels Thomas Jefferson Aug 24, 2022

Show notes

In another "I told you so" moment, the young dopes who run the UVA student newspaper want to cancel Thomas Jefferson. At his own university. This is the problem with the presentism James Sweet discussed in his now canceled essay. The response should be simple: "No. Shut up."
