I am a philosopher with a doctorate and a writer living in Philadelphia. I want to dig deep in this podcast, going beyond the superficial level of daily events. Along with Thoreau, I want to search for the principle behind the myriad instances and applications. All news is gossip, ideas are what drive history.

In this episode, I discuss a recent interview with Remi Brague, a prominent European thinker. He documents the phenomenon of “cancel culture.” It is common to hear about this, but we must not take it lightly. We need to recognize that political correctness protects certain dogmas from any criticism. Feminism, radical ecologism, and gender ideology, among others, do not permit dissent. These ideas are meant to drive a wedge between ourselves and the past, and we are in danger of losing touch with our moral compass.
