Daily Wire: We Are Taking Culture BACK from Left Wing Hollywood, Disney & Other Woke Institutions

Andrew Klavan, host of The Daily Wire's "Andrew Klavan Show", returns to #SWYSI to discuss his new book "The Truth and Beauty: How the Lives and Works of England's Greatest Poets Point the Way to a Deeper Understanding of the Words of Jesus". He also talks about The Daily Wire's successful attempt to produce conservative cultural content to counter the left-wing output of Hollywood etc. Most recently, in response to revelations about Disney's gender agenda, The Daily Wire announced it would invest $100 million to produce programmes for children. In The Truth and Beauty, Klavan combines a decades-long writing career with a lifetime of reading to discover a fresh understanding of the Gospels. By reading the words of Jesus through the life and work of writers such as William Wordsworth and John Keats, Mary Shelley and Samuel Taylor Coleridge--the English romantics--Klavan discovered a way to encounter Jesus in a deeper and more profound way than ever before. For readers seeking to find renewed meaning in the words of Jesus--and for those who are striving for belief in a materialistic world--The Truth and Beauty offers an intimate account of one man's struggle to understand the Gospels in all their strangeness, and so find his way to a life that is, as he says, "the most creative, the most joyful, and surely the most true."

Jon Long is the creator of The Renaissance Workshop, an arts and humanities initiative aimed at widening interaction with traditional Western art and culture.

Why Can't Politicians Define "Woman"?

On this week's #NCFNewspeak, Emma Webb & Peter Whittle are joined by Caroline Ffiske of Conservatives for Women, a new campaign group to raise awareness of issues which threaten the safety and dignity of women.

Why Western Liberals Hate Orban's Hungary & Why Conservatives Have Embraced It

Viktor Orban's landslide election victory has enraged The West's elites. Why do they demonize Hungary so much? And what, if anything, can European and British conservatives learn from Viktor Orban's politics? John O'Sullivan answers these questions from his vantage point as president of The Danube Institute, a Budapest-based think tank. He was senior policy adviser and speech writer for Margaret Thatcher when she was Prime Minister. He has also served as editor of National Review and vice president of Radio Free Europe.

Fathers 4 Justice Founder: New Divorce Law is Disastrous for Men. Marriage Needs Reform.

The UK's new "No-Fault" Divorce laws should come with a public health warning as its outcomes will be apocalyptic for men. So argues, Matt O'Connor, founder of the Fathers 4 Justice campaign group, on this episode of #SWYSI. Fathers 4 Justice say that marriage is currently a sexist "man trap". They want to see genuine reform of the institution that removes anti-male elements such as spousal maintenance. Sweden, for example, has eliminated spousal maintenance for divorce settlements as it is sexist to expect a man to support a woman. Fathers 4 Justice believe it is time for true divorce equality and parental equality.

Konstantin Kisin on Russia, Ukraine + Western Response

Konstantin Kisin joins Peter Whittle on the #SWYSI sofa to discuss Russia & Ukraine from his perspective as a Russian-born citizen who is married to a Ukrainian and is in constant contact with family in both countries, which he also visits several times a year. As a Russian speaker he also closely follows Russian media that is inaccessible to non-Russian speakers in the West. In a wide-ranging discussion they also discuss his new book (out in July) An Immigrant's Love Letter to the West. Funny, provocative and unswervingly perceptive, An Immigrant's Love letter to the West interrogates the developing sense of self-loathing the Western sphere has adopted and offers an alternative perspective. Exploring race, politics, free speech, immigration and more, Kisin argues that wrongdoing and guilt need not pervade how we feel about the West - and Britain - today, and that despite all its ups and downs, it remains one of the best places to live in the world.

Defending Masculinity & Tackling The Male Crisis

On this episode of #SWYSI, Nina Power discusses her book "What Do Men Want?: Masculinity & its Discontents" and provides her insights on men and women, "toxic masculinity", incels, "patriarchy", Western culture, and the "men are bad" narrative. Nina Power's book is an inquiry into love, sex and power and provides an unashamed defence of masculinity and an attempt to tackle the crisis in masculinity that has grown to epidemic proportions amongst vast swathes of the population. Nina Power is a philosopher, cultural critic and author. In addition to her books, she has written for The Spectator, The Telegraph and the Art Review, amongst other publications. Nina says she wrote this book “partly because I have been personally and politically disturbed by the division created by media and technology between men and women in my own lifetime. Partly because I feel that men and women have had their lives reduced to generalizations by a media that loves sweeping claims: I think that these claims don’t accord in the slightest with the complex reality of our lives.” On her website she adds “it’s an attempt, among other things, to understand...male resentment."

Sadiq Khan's Stark Staring Mad Tfl ads + Is The West Right to Lionize Zelensky?

On this week's #NCFNewspeak, our panel discuss the impact of Ukraine on our energy prices and energy security and why this makes Britain's "Net Zero" ambitions ludicrous & reckless. Also, is The West right to lionize and make heroes out of politicians like Zelensky? Taking so-called micro-aggressions to a whole new level, Transport for London (TfL) now warns commuters not to stare at fellow passengers. And, despite the brave efforts of women in Ukraine, Nicola Sturgeon has instead chosen to mark International Womens' Day by apologising to ancient witches. Our Host: Emma Webb, commentator & deputy research director at the Free Speech Union. Our panel: * Peter Whittle, Founder & Director of the New Culture Forum * Marc Glendening, Head of Cultural Affairs at the Institute of Economic Affairs * Gawain Towler, political consultant and former head of media for the Brexit Party ---------------- SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.

Inside Putin's Mind: His Goals, Motivation & World View - What The West Needs to Understand

Dr. Attila Demko is a former Hungarian diplomat & defence strategist and an expert on the geopolitics of Russia & Ukraine. He is the author of "Fury of the Tsar", which gives an exclusive insight into Vladimir Putin's mindset, what he has against the United States and NATO and why Ukraine is so important for so called "Mother Russia". It guides the reader into the shady realm of geopolitical competition; false-flag operations and cruel battles behind the scenes, all wrapped into the fire of Eastern European history. Dr. Demko joins Peter Whittle in Budapest to explain Putin is furious and what he is capable of doing when cornered. And he is indeed cornered. Things are not going well for Russia, and a new economic crisis is at the door. Written in 2019, this book reads like a prophecy in 2022. Vladimir Putin is on the path of revenge, a path which Dr. Demok believes may lead to two graves: the grave of the West, and the grave of Russia. Reviews: “I ignored meetings, calls, and impeachment hearings to devour this book. For any reader who values history, enjoys fiction, and follows East-West power politics, this book is a mesmerizing tour de force. Part intelligence briefing, part cinema verité, it’s a powerful, unnerving ride.” Victor Gaetan (The American Spectator) “A controversial, thought-provoking, insightful, yet entertaining book. A new Tom Clancy is born.” Dario Quintavalle (Limes) To purchase "Fury of the Tsars" written under Dr. Demko's pseudonym "David Autere", please click here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fury-Tsar-Bo... ---------------- SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.
