The Re/al/ign, episode 13-- With James A. Smith

My discussion with the host of The Popular Show

In this 13th episode of The Re/al/ign, I spoke with James Smith of The Popular Show. You may remember that I’ve been honored to be a guest on that show twice, and now was mine to return the favor.

One of the particularly fascinating aspects of James’ thought is how utterly practical — and as mentioned in this episode, “unhysterical” — his analysis is. He’s got a rare skill to look soberly at larger psychological forces at play in leftist (re)actions. For a good example, see his explanation of how the failed mobilizations for Sanders and Corbyn manifested in leftist support for authoritarian pandemic lockdown policies.

This episode is free in all formats. You’ll note my video is a bit out of sync with my audio, but James’ is fine. There are no similar issues in the audio-only version.

As always, if you like my work, please consider becoming a supporter. Several pcoming episodes will be supporter-only for the first 2 weeks, then released to the public.
