He is editor-in-chief of the paleoconservative magazine Chronicles and is an associated scholar at the Mises Institute, a libertarian think tank.

And yeah Tom Woods is great - how I heard about Gottfried in the first place. I actually emailed Gottfried about something he said on Tom's podcast and he emailed me back! :-P

Prof. Jacob Mitchell at Georgetown does a lot of work on how woke is based on religion. His book American Awakening is great on this. He said, the right can't effectively fight the woke, because its "canons" are pointed in the wrong direction - at socialism, not at woke as a religion. According to Mitchell, one way to beat woke is to expose it from the Christian point of view as a false religion, a lie.

Who is the Canadian mentioned at 36 minutes - Richard Douchen? I don't know how to spell his name so Google has not been fruitful. Thanks!
