I speak with Ben about life as an expat in Eastern Europe as storm clouds are gathering, the Zeitgeist of the last few decades under the shadow of all-encompassing technology, the new landscape of conservative magazines, identity as a product, navigating Twitter beefs, and his book "Noughties: Eleven Echoes of a Dismal Decade"
