He was a great man but he could not stop the globalist democratic egalitarian onslaught that was hellbent on destroying a country that was "more British than the British." But why was it so? Why did the West, including men like Jimmy Carter, want Rhodesia turned into a hellscape? We'll discuss it in this episode. Brian and Eric also talk about why Rhodesia's story is so i...2025-06-062h 07The King\'s HallThe King's HallDating, Courtship, and the NCP Singles MixerSend us a text!In this episode, Brian and Eric talk about the upcoming singles mixer, the problematic dating scene, and what Christians can do about it.

He didn't do it alone, however, but with a ton of help from folks like Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Scott Pressler, Susie Wiles, Joe Rogan, and Dana White. His run also had broad appeal to many on the right wing thanks to the selection of J.D. Vance as Vice Presidential candidate. With the win, as Elon Musk said on X, "The future is gonna be fantastic."

To men like Knox, Calvin, Vermigli, and others, headship and father rule were central, not secondary, issues upon which Christendom was built. C.S. Lewis included headship in his book, Mere Christianity, as a centrally important doctrine. We'll unpack nine principles that are central to a patriarchal vision, which is in turn essential for building Christendom.We also discuss the recent tweet from Doug Wilson about Eric and Ogden, regarding the platform and reactions of...2024-03-082h 24The King\'s HallThe King's HallKing Alfred the Great and the Rise of EnglandSend us a text!Alfred is one of the greatest heroes of the Christian West.

Have you ever considered how the narratives we weave impact our perception of the world and guide our actions? Or why so many people's live are framed by a narrative of decline?

As we learn from the story of Stonewall Jackson, our sons will either build and defend our cultural monuments—or tear them down. How do we think about cultural transmission and legacy work? Where does it start? Ultimately, we need thick culture that comes from thick liturgy and cultural maximalism. As we navigate the complexity of protecting our historical monuments, we also broach the little-known influence of feminism and Unitarians in the 1800s. We explore the necessity of robust wor...2023-09-011h 23The King\'s HallThe King's HallBe the Blessing Man: A Roadmap to Joyful FatherhoodSend us a text!Doug Wilson has said one of the things you want to be as a father is “The Blessing Man.” You have a unique role to be a disciplinarian, and provide authority, order, and structure, and this is good. But you also need to be like the Lord, Our Father, who overflows with blessing.
