The Biblical Anarchy Podcast

O Come Emmanuel is often treated like a peaceful Christmas hymn, but its message is far more restless than we remember. In this belated Christmas episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, Jacob Winograd explores how the song reflects Israel’s longing, Christian exile, and the tension of a kingdom that has come but is not yet fully realized. Christmas is not only about celebration; it is also about...

In this episode, I sit down with Brent Freeman (@BGetsBetter) to explore anarchy, personal sovereignty, and what it might look like to build a free society from the ground up. We talk about whether a stateless order could be realistic, how health and mindset shape human behavior, and why dec...

From a recent LCI Greenroom with Jacob Winograd of Biblical Anarchy, Dave comes in to address some of the criticisms he has received including from libertarians, and the theme of the conversation is why Christians need libertarianism to properly analyze the world, but that also libertarianism isn't enough to create a moral and peaceful society.

In this episode of the LCI Greenroom , Doug Stuart and Jacob Winograd sit down with James Lindsay to explore whether the West — and Israel by extension — can escape what Lindsay calls the “trap of catharsis.” Drawing from his recent essay Civilization vs. Catharsis , James explains how our culture has replaced reason and moral responsibility with emotional release — a worldview that seeks justice...

In this episode, Jacob Winograd takes on Jon Stewart’s infamous “19 Questions for Libertarians” from his 2011 exchange with Judge Napolitano.

But more than a decade later, Jacob unpacks why those same arguments still miss the mark. From a distinctly biblical libertarian pers...

Tim shares his remarkable journey from a “Bush-cake cons...
