Author: The Claremont Institute July 31, 2025 Duration: 55:14

Sydney Sweeney’s latest, mildly provocative ad for American Eagle has prompted a tidal wave of complaints that the campaign is racist for flaunting not just jeans but her (white) genes. Meanwhile, terminally online feminists open another front in their social war, this time against “mankeeping,” a new euphemism for...being nice to men. This week Matthew Peterson joins the guys to discuss the Left’s loosened grip on culture and young men, the payoff of the Trump tariffs against pessimistic “expert” predictions, and to media recommendations!

Behind the daily headlines and political noise, there's a deeper current of ideas shaping the nation. The American Mind Podcast, from The Claremont Institute, digs into that foundational layer. It moves beyond surface-level debate to examine the philosophical assumptions and historical principles that actually drive American life. In each episode, hosts sit down with Claremont scholars and a range of thoughtful critics to untangle the real causes of our cultural moment. These conversations aren't about quick takes or partisan scoring; they're sustained explorations of how concepts from history, philosophy, and political theory manifest in our society, news cycles, and personal lives. Tuning in, you'll hear rigorous but accessible discussions that connect timeless thought to contemporary upheaval. This podcast provides a space for listeners to step back from the frenzy and consider the underlying forces-the enduring ideals and the new challenges-that are continually remaking the American experiment. It’s for anyone who suspects there’s more to the story and wants to engage with the substantive ideas, not just the symptoms, of our political and cultural reality.
