The Not Your Grandmother's Book Club Podcast

This week, we take a look at the “traditionalist Catholics” and rad trads and trad caths, a cesspool of antisemitism and misogyny (and some ordinary old religious fanatics as well). Benedict has also declared himself the anti-pope this week, so look forward to your forthcoming excommunication. Thanks as always for listening and enjoy the show!

This week, we retvurn to our book review of Ted Cruz’ “Unwoke” and find the first chapter to be primarily Ted crapping on lefties and college students while insisting he’s the most tolerant and open lover of ideas and college students.

This week, Kevin decided to dig into the as-yet untapped pool of obsurdity that is the Prager U short documentaries starting with "Restricted: How Big Tech is Taking Away Your Freedom, and it was just about bad as expected.

This week, we finally begin our reading of the book “Unwoke: How to Defeat Cultural Marxism in America” by the world’s most hated senator, Ted Cruz. This week we dug into the prologue and introduction and learn that Ted has no excuses, as has always been the case. Thanks as always for listening and enjoy the show!

This month we decided to look at something we started over on the regular show, the 2011 Documentary "Cultural Marxism - The Corruption of America" a James Jaeger film, and oh boy did we find out some interesting things along the way. We highly recommend watching along with us this week. You can find the full movie on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIdBuK7_g3M&t=4178s  

This week, Kevin is writing the episode description in protest because Benedict vetoed his proposed episode title. Yes Ted Cruz sucks, yes this week we talked about him, but wouldn’t this episode be just that much better if we called him a cuck in the title? Wouldn’t it be slightly funnier? So yeah we do Ted’s bio this week or whatever, but Benedict also sucks this week. Thanks as always for liste...

This week, we finally finished off our review of Josh Hawley’s sad self help book attempt “Manhood: The Masculine Virtues America Needs” with the very sort of wet fart we suspected it would end with from the very beginning, namely Chapter 10 “King.” Next week we will do our author introduction to Ted Cruz and the following week we will begin reviewing his garbage fire, “Unwoke: How to Defeat Cultu...

This week, we preemptively begin our next book review of Ted Cruz’ “Unwoke: How to Defeat Cultural Marxism in America” by taking a look at the antisemitic conspiracy theory Ted built his book around, “Cultural Marxism.” We take a look at how the term developed from the nazi propaganda term Cultural Bolshevism into the neo-nazi term cultural marxism and fail to understand the right’s complete lack...

This week, we complete the penultimate chapter of Josh Hawley’s Manhood by reading chapter 9 “Priest” in which Josh utterly fails to connect any of his personal stories to the subject matter or explain why a mental health episode means we all need to be christian fascists.

This week, we dive into a fun round of Prager RoUlette to see what’s on offer at our favorite non-university on the internet, Prager U. This time around we got whinging about DINKS from one of the biggest dinks out there, Dennis Prager, as well as tradwife influencers, revisionist historians, and more of the fun we know and love from Prager U. Thanks as always for listening and enjoy the show! Bec...

This week, we dive back into Josh Hawley’s book Manhood to read chapter 6 “Builder in which we learn that Josh desperately needs to hire an editor, or find somebody who loves him enough to tell him when he’s accidentally (I assume) written a nazi slogan. This week we are told that Men are meant to work, but only physical labor of course, and Josh tells us about all the relatives he has who have do...

This week, to celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day we decided to take a look at America’s smallest faced petit fascist Charlie Kirk and his plans to DESTROY MLK on the holiday named after him. Needless to say we found Charlie’s attempts lacking. We also talk about the bevy of white supremacist edgelords he surrounds himself with and reach the completely startling conclusion that Chuck might just b...

This week, we jump back into Josh Hawley’s Manhood after our leisurely holiday break for chapter 7, “Warrior”  to find him citing nazi sympathizers and generally forgetting that families make up their own histories.

This week, we kick off the new year by opening up the mailbag to answer all of the wonderful questions sent in by our listeners and patrons. Thank you all for your questions. We finished off the episode this week by revisiting a massive oversight we should have known about months ago, the time Steven Seagal went on the Alex Jones Show. Thanks as always for listening and enjoy the show! Become a pa...

Hey everybody, we took it a bit easy this week with the holidays and everything and recorded an episode that was mostly just us chatting.

We hope all of you have a wonderful holiday and Happy New Year.   Thanks as always for listening and enjoy the show!   Become a patro...

This week, we enjoy the wonder and beauty of a thousand punctured inflatable Santas as we celebrate yet another win in the War on Christmas. This year the Grinch army fielded a Bathomet statue in Iowa, tap dancers in the white house, and a platoon of non-gendered snow-people. We can gladly report from the front that our forces easily overwhelmed an entire army of talk show hosts and came out entir...

This week, we take a little break (or a little breaky IYKYK) and decided to release one of our recent patron only bonus episodes onto the main feed for you all to enjoy. In the month of August(ish) we watched an episode of the Michael Knowles Book Club on Prager U where he and future Minitruth functionary Dave Rubin pretended to have read 1984. We sure enjoyed it and we hope you will too. Thanks a...
