Hey y’all! I’m back from vacation and we have lots to catch up on. Luckily, we had a pretty slow news cycle while I was away, so there is not much to report. Today, I'm answering your questions, including how traveling overseas affected my view of America. Subscribe to Unapologetic: https://www.prageru.com/series/unapologetic

Most Americans assume a totalitarian regime like the Soviet Union or Communist China couldn’t happen here. My guest today, Rod Dreher, believes that is a dangerous and naive mentality. In this interview, he lays out his belief that America is increasingly falling under a “soft totalitarianism” that starts with things like cancel culture, wokeness, and political correctness but ends much, much wors...

Jerome Eisenberg is suing a $50,000 per year private school in Los Angeles that kicked his daughter out after he complained about their “racially divisive” curriculum. In the wake of the George Floyd uprisings, the school replaced classics like “Lord of the Flies” and “To Kill a Mockingbird” with books such as antiracist activist Ibram X. Kendi’s “Stamped” and held racially segregated meetings tha...

Why is our society suddenly pretending like being obese is perfectly healthy in order to avoid hurting people’s feelings? Today, I’m joined by YouTuber Alex Pierce, also known as HRH Collection, to watch TikToks promoting the “body positivity” or “fat acceptance” movement and give our honest reactions.

I recently reacted to two episodes of Emmanuel Acho’s “Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man” (link below). You asked to see more, so today I’m reacting to his original viral episode in the wake of the BLM riots in 2020, which let’s just say hasn’t aged particularly well. Emmanuel responded to a clip of today’s show on Instagram, so I invited him to join me on Unapologetic—would you guys li...

I recently came across a post on TikTok from @freelyashley, a self-professed former leftist like me who started making videos after debates with her conservative husband made her change her mind. I thought she nailed explaining why leftists are so angry, so on today’s show I wanted to share her video and my reaction to it!

I’ve been watching old episodes of “Saved by the Bell” and can’t help but notice how different the values in coming-of-age TV shows from the 1990s were compared to today. What ever happened to wholesome TV? Is Hollywood driving cultural change in America, or just reflecting it? We discuss on today’s show.

I recently went out on the streets of Los Angeles and asked complete strangers, “Is America racist?” But instead of accepting a simple “Yes” or “No” answer, I dug a little deeper and tried to promote civil discourse (which seems rarer than ever these days) about a heated topic like racism in America. We might not all agree, but can we still respect each other and engage in real conversations?

Today I’m joined by YouTuber Alex Pierce, aka HRH Collection, to react to some of the most cringeworthy TikToks you’ll ever see. Let’s get into it!

An incredible speech from Clifton Duncan—a successful Broadway actor turned restaurant server—recently gained steam on social media because it powerfully and eloquently demonstrates how backwards our society has become. Listen to him with me on today’s show and let me know in the comments if it resonates with you, too!

Have you seen these snarky, smart-sounding infographics floating around Instagram promoting leftist ideas? Today I decided to take a look at one of the most popular accounts responsible for such posts called @Impact and see if their posts hold water.

Happy Friday, guys! Today we’re reacting to this week’s top headlines, including America offering Russia a notorious weapons dealer in exchange for WNBA player Britney Griner, Will Smith’s awkward apology, DC & NYC’s new struggle with illegal immigrants, and definitions of words like “recession,” “girl,” and “definition” itself are being redefined to fit leftist narratives. Let’s get into it.

News that Saudi Arabia is planning to build a utopian glass city for 9 million people in the middle of the desert called “The Line” has been sweeping the Internet. The city will be 500 meters tall, 200 meters wide, and 170 kilometers long, powered by 100% renewable energy, and built in 5-minute walkable neighborhoods where all your daily needs can be met. Does this sound like a dystopian nightmare...

“Love Is Blind” co-host Vanessa Lachey has come under fire after being asked about the lack of “body diversity” on the hit reality dating show. ABC’s “The Bachelor” has faced similar criticism in recent years, which begs the question: Do reality dating shows have a “fat acceptance” problem? Let’s get into it.

A popular TikTok cook with over 1 million followers bowed to the mob after the PC police attacked her for posting a “Cowboy Caviar” recipe. Her crime? Appropriating Mexican culture. It’s a situation that’s both sad and funny at the same time, and one that also speaks to a bigger issue going on in our culture—we’re publicly shaming people until they submit to progressive ideology.

Today I’m reacting to “Nope” actress Keke Palmer going viral on Twitter for saying comparisons of her to Zendaya were “colorism,” the army seeming to be more interested in rewarding DEI training than combat performance, and an anonymous parent writing a full op-ed about her child’s gender nonconformity?

Happy Friday, guys! For today’s show I’ll be reviewing Jordan Peele’s new movie “Nope” that is releasing this weekend and reacting to some comments the director made about race and Hollywood.

Hey guys, today I’m reacting to a clip from Ibram X. Kendi’s recent appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in which I think there’s a very dishonest exchange about how children should be taught about slavery and racism. Do you agree more with them or me? Let me know in the comments below!

Emmanuel Acho is a former NFL player turned television personality and host of a weekly anti-racist show called “Uncomfortable Conversations With a Black Man.” His 2020 interview with Chip & Joana Gaines about how we should teach kids about race was recently brought to my attention, and on today’s show I’ll be reacting and sharing my thoughts.

Today I’m joined by Alex Pierce, better known as HRH Collection, to answer YOUR dating advice questions. Alex is known for her unapologetically honest takes on social media, so this should be interesting!

A Minneapolis mom went viral this weekend after confronting protesters who had gathered in support of Andrew Tekle Sundberg, a man who was shot and killed after a long standoff with police who responded to her call that Sundberg had allegedly been shooting his gun into her home as she cooked dinner for her kids.

In today’s polarized society, it seems like anytime political topics come up there’s more talking past each other, regurgitating mainstream talking points, and outright screaming than thoughtful and productive discussion. In this Unapologetic Special, Amala hits the streets of Los Angeles to see if it’s possible to have civil conversations with complete strangers about racism in America.

By now you’ve probably heard the horrific story of the 10-year-old who became pregnant after being raped by an illegal immigrant and traveled from Ohio to Indiana to get an abortion. What does it say about our culture when this tragedy is immediately pounced upon by both sides to score political points? I react to this and more stories from this week on today’s show.

If you’re on Instagram, you’ve probably seen some of these woke infographics and memes shared by that outspoken lefist aunt or women’s studies major you know. Today I thought it’d be fun to react to some of the silliest and most cringey ones I could find.

Crisis pregnancy centers provide free resources, medical services, baby supplies, and education to expecting mothers, but according to Elizabeth Warren they “torture pregnant people.” I have thoughts.
