Jeremy Pryor's Podcast The "Good Life": The Dangerous Place The Left Wants To Take Us
What happens when one of America’s sharpest liberal thinkers is pressed to define the good life?
In this episode, Jeremy unpacks a conversation between New York Times columnists Ross Douthat and Ezra Klein - two brilliant minds from opposite ends of the political spectrum.
What begins as a discussion about progressivism’s future quickly becomes a deep philosophical exploration of faith, meaning, and purpose in modern politics.
Jeremy walks us through the unraveling of Klein’s vision for “the good life” and what that says about the spiritual emptiness of today’s cultural left.
Stay tuned until the end, because what Klein finally admits might surprise you.
