1. Douglas Murray - Great Men Will Save the West22 Oct 202401:06:35

Douglas Murray is a best-selling author and prescient thinker. He has long been a leading defender of the West. In his books, The Strange Death of Europe (2017), The Madness of Crowds (2019), and The War on the West (2022), he identified the threats facing the West, both internal and external, and has suggested how we might defend ourselves. He is also a friend.


It was a pleasure talking with him and it was encouraging to hear his message of hope for our society. Enjoy the discussion!


P.S. After our discussion in our next episode with Anna Khachiyan, I will make sure I don’t have my scarf over the mic, so you should be able to hear me better! Apologies, but it is a work in progress, and I really thank you for your support and for bearing with us.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Desiree Fixler, the famous ESG whistle-blower, discuss the ways in which this slippery term has been used to undermine free-market Capitalism. During her time as the Chief Sustainability Officer at DWS, a key subsidiary of Deutsche Bank, Desiree uncovered that ESG was being used to deliberately mislead customers into purchasing products with unwarranted premiums. With Ayaan, they discuss the nefarious nature of this ideology, and how the corporate embrace of it has given rise to the implementation of devastating ‘Net Zero’ policies across the West.
