The J. Burden Show

Cody Justice, a publisher, writer, and head of Sacra Press, joins the show to talk through a speech he gave to an assembly of men in western North Carolina. They discuss "blood, soil, and faith": the case that particular local and ethnic identities fit with Christianity, objections drawn from Scripture, critiques of liberalism and "regime Christianity," and whether American identity can stay Chris...

Will Tanner discusses France's riots, arguing Western states have lost the will to enforce order since the 1960s. We compare Detroit, Thatcher's miners, and Bukele's El Salvador; we link disorder to suburban flight, gun culture, and elites' discomfort with violence.

Thomas777 returns to recount the January 6 pipe-bomb investigation, arguing that inconsistencies in the reported devices, surveillance footage, and security response raise questions about the official narrative. T777 discusses journalist Steve Baker’s research and contends that the man later accused of the bombing does not match the person seen in the available footage. THE BOOK T777: https://subs...

Pollster Mark Mitchell joins the show to explain the volatile political environment ahead of the 2026 midterms, arguing that shifting independents, younger voters, and dissatisfaction with Republican leadership could produce major Democratic gains. They frame the GOP’s central challenge as a split between establishment interests and an economically populist “America First” wing, with foreign polic...

In this episode, originally on The Clown Town Chronicle, I spoke with Aaron about the war between the sexes, "practical solutions" to political issues, and barely mentioned mutant raccoons.

Edward McLaren joins the show to speak about Resident Evil (2026): why it works as a lean, game-inspired horror ride, where it falls short as an adaptation, and what its strange ending says about modern franchise filmmaking and masculine archetypes.

Today's episode criticizes “forever wars” and post‑9/11 U.S. foreign policy. I point out that prolonged conflicts in the Middle East were costly, strategically incoherent, and sold to the public through misleading narratives, while responding to Jeremy Boreing’s defense of interventionism.

Palestinianism is the new OP, and New Fist joins to examine how labels and slogans shape debate around Israel, Palestine, foreign influence, nationalism, and religion.

NB: The audio source got switched to my headphones, not my mic, so it's lower quality than normal. My bad. Kevin DeAnna joins the show for a hard-hitting conversation on capital punishment, public authority, crime, social status, and how modern institutions frame violence, justice, and moral responsibility.

Today's episode is a wide-ranging conversation on how technology shapes society, from fading techno-optimism and social-media algorithms to repairability, corporate incentives, digital monopolies, and the challenge of directing innovation toward the public good.

In this episode, we unpack Chappie, exploring AI, creator responsibility, nature versus nurture, and the movie’s questions about consciousness and identity. We also connect it to Neill Blomkamp’s other films and debate the story’s strange, contradictory worldview.

Kruptos returns to discuss Christian identity, political pluralism, and how conservative evangelicals relate to mainstream culture. They argue that religious communities should prioritize their own convictions and solidarity rather than seeking approval from political institutions. And a fishing story.

Bret Weinstein joins the show to explore cultural decline, identity conflict, relationships, declining birth rates, and the incentives driving societal breakdown.

The great Thomas777 traces the Johnny Gosch disappearance and related Des Moines child-abduction cases of the 1980s.

Following up on recent discussions on conservative art, J. Burden and Karl Dahl dissect Run Hide Fight: Infidels, a chaotic horror-comedy-political-action-thriller from the Daily Wire, packed with muddled messaging, jarring tonal shifts, and baffling plot choices.

In today's episode, we're putting Erick Erickson's recent article on the “woke right” on trial, and the verdict is blunt: modern conservatism isn't the same as America’s founding tradition. If you care about the fight over heritage, identity, and what actually makes someone American, tune in.
