Ep. 550: Republic or Democracy? Wrong Dichotomy Nov 22, 2021

Show notes

Is the United States a republic or a democracy? Neither, but that's not what historians on the left and right argue about. I explain on this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Ep. 549: Biden Loses The Lottery Nov 18, 2021

Show notes

Joe Biden's mandate heads to federal court, and the winner is....the 6th Circuit. You almost could not parody the stupidity of the United States government and the federal court system. I discuss both the mandate and the idiotic nature of the federal courts in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Ep. 548: Northern Slavery Nov 17, 2021

Show notes

The "treasury of virtue" self-righteous Northerner who constantly sneers at the South needs some self-reflection and some honest history.

Ep. 547: Mother Do You Think They'll Drop the Bomb? Nov 16, 2021

Show notes

Did the bomb end World War II? That has long been the conventional wisdom among average Americans. It seems that way. Japan surrendered after the second bomb was dropped in 1945. But is this true?

Ep. 546: Selective "Originalism"? Nov 15, 2021

Show notes

Professor Saul Cornell doesn't like the latest round of arguments from the Supreme Court. SCOTUS seems poised to expand "gun rights," but Cornell thinks this is a case of "selective originalism." I agree, but Cornell is confused by "textualism" and "orignialism." The two terms aren't the same. SCOTUS shouldn't even have this case on the docket. I explain why on this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Ep. 545: The 1800 Revolution Nov 11, 2021

Show notes

A listener wanted to know the best book on the political revolution of 1800. This was a great question that allowed for a deep dive into the Old Republicans, the true progenitors of the American conservative tradition. I discuss the best book on the topic and the event itself in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Ep. 544: Is Our "Democracy" in Peril? Nov 10, 2021

Show notes

If you listen to the left and the neoconservatives, our "democracy" is being threatened by Republicans, or more importantly Donald Trump. Is this true? And is the United States a "democracy"? A recently published public letter on the fragility of our "democracy" by some of these nincompoops was too funny to overlook.

Ep. 543: Voting a Right or a Privilege? Nov 09, 2021

Show notes

Americans constantly insist that voting is a "right." But is that true? Would the founding generation consider voting to be a "right"? More importantly for modern American society, does insisting that voting is a "right" lead to unintended consequences, i.e. more fraud? More Americans believe that elections are rigged than at any point in American history. I discuss these issues on this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Ep. 542: Youngkin's Anti-Woke Mandate? Nov 08, 2021

Show notes

Was Glenn Youngkin's victory an anti-woke mandate? You could read it that way, or you could see it as a result of soccer moms upset that they were being called racist and wanted to punish the people who were saying it. I discuss Youngkin's victory and what it means for future elections.

Ep. 541: Progressive Legal Loons Nov 04, 2021

Show notes

If you want to know what the legal loons on the progressive left think, follow Ian Millhiser on social media. You'll get a regular good laugh. Millhiser regularly champions packing the Supreme Court, ending the filibuster (or the Senate), and warns against the "dangerous" tendencies of "conservative" justices. You see, what Millhiser doesn't like is the activist court when his team isn't winning. But make no mistake, Millhiser wants the activist court to implement every item on the progressive wish list. These people can't make up their minds, but they make good podcast fodder.
