Season 6 Episode 8: Ben Shapiro's Foreign Policy/Ben Burgis on News Nation
On a recent episode of his show, professional advocate for the 1% Ben Shapiro lays out his "foreign policy worldview" so we're bringing one of our favorite foreign policy analysts, Mean Djene Bajalan, onto the show to break it down. Before that, Ben Burgis and the GTAA crew watch Ben's recent appearance on News Nation in which Ben and host Dan Abrams argue about whether the Supreme Court is "legitimate." Last but not least, in the postgame for patrons, we get through a few more credits of our education at Prager U.

#ForceTheVote #MedicareForAll #AnaKasparian
Ana Kasparian joins Ben Burgis this week, and in this segment, they discuss the recent “Force the Vote” debacle within the online Left. “#ForceTheVote” is a proposal for pushing a floor vote in Congress on Medicare for All, and it went through a LIGHTNING-SPEED journey from an idea circulated within the online Left; to a debate on the merits of the plan; to an argument about who was on whose side regarding the issue; to a wildly personal, vicious, outsized, and destructive force of discourse within the Left that caused very real splintering.
Ana goes on to describe something that came up from her past during this flurry of infighting, which is an interview she did with Madeleine Albright.

On the last episode of the Red Scare podcast, co-host Dasha Nekrasova talked about an argument she had with our own Ben Burgis back in September in Los Angeles. It was the night of a debate on the sexual revolution between Dasha's co-host Anna Khachiyan, British author Louise Perry, Ex-Muslims of North America founder Sarah Haider and.....Grimes. Ben and Dasha ran into each other at the afterparty and ended up having a long argument about whether the reason for declining American birthrates is "anti-natalist culture" or economic precarity. Ben and graphic designer Andy break it all down.

Victor and Ethan join Ben Burgis to watch a portion near the end of Ben Shapiro's debate with "cosmic skeptic" Alex O'Connor. When O'Connor challenges Ben on the bible's approval of practices such as slavery, Shapiro's biblical apologetics leave much to be desired.

Last Monday, Ben was joined by Ben Udashen to read through Mike Huckabee's "kid's book" A Kids Guide To Fighting Socialism. They ran out of time before they could finish it and continued in the postgame, not because the book was particularly long but because there was so much to comment on.
