  • I Played the Trans Activist | James Esses
    Oct 28 2026

    Peter Boghossian cannot get a pro-trans activist to come on for these conversations, so he took on the role himself and interrogated James Esses with the strongest pro-trans arguments.

  • Should Mosques Be Illegal in America? | LIVE with Dale Partridge
    Oct 28 2026

    A pastor says America should ban mosques. Now, he defends it LIVE.

    Dale Partridge is a Reformed pastor and open Christian nationalist. He leads King's Way Reformed Church in Prescott, Arizona, hosts the American Glory podcast, and wrote "The Israel Delusion." He doesn't hedge. Peter Boghossian will press him on what he believes, why he believes it, and how confident he should be.

    What you'll hear:
    • Islam as an "existential threat to Western civilization": Is it true, and what follows?
    • America as a Christian nation.
    • Freedom of religion as "a really bad idea": What replaces it?

    No safe spaces. No talking points. Just two people who disagree and test each other's ideas.

  • Bad Gun Handling Isn't Bigotry | Paul Sharp Live
    Oct 24 2026

    Her job is to protect Parliament. She just won an award for service. And in the photo: Finger on the trigger, muzzle pointed at a fellow officer.

    "It wasn't loaded." Rule #1 of gun safety: Treat every gun as if it is.

    Thousands noticed. The Met didn't order remedial training. It said the criticism was because she's Muslim.

    What would you trust this police force with? Policing? Gun safety? Evidence? And can an institution this corrupted by ideology ever recover?

    Peter Boghossian goes live with Paul Sharp: Retired police officer, firearms instructor, and BJJ black belt martial artist with over 40 years of experience.

  • "Queer Anthropology" and the Death of Science | Elizabeth Weiss
    Oct 23 2026

    Did you know there's such a thing as "queer anthropology"?

    Anthropologist Elizabeth Weiss says it's a sign of a much bigger problem. When a field abandons logic, falsifiability, and consistency, it stops being science and starts being ideology. Falsehoods get presented as truth, real problems go unsolved, and the past gets molded to fit the narrative instead of discovered.

    Peter Boghossian and Elizabeth dig into how anthropology got captured, what it costs, and what it will take to bring the field back, valuing evidence.

  • "We're Going to Graduate Students Who Aren't Faking It" | Loren Rotner
    Oct 21 2026

    "We're going to graduate students who aren't faking it."

    AI can now write the essay, pass the exam, and fake the thinking. So what happens to education? Are universities making sure students can think for themselves, or are they producing graduates who outsource their minds to AI?

    Peter Boghossian sits down with Loren Rotner, associate provost at the University of Austin (UATX), to dig into it. What's actually wrong with legacy institutions? Why have so many stopped teaching students how to think? And what safeguards is UATX putting in place to make sure its graduates can reason, write, and argue on their own?

  • Is Therapy Culture Making Gen Z Worse? | Pierre Valentin
    Oct 16 2026

    Why is Gen Z killing themselves? Is therapy culture making it worse?


    Peter Boghossian sits down with author Pierre Valentin to examine how mental illness became part of identity. "It's okay not to be okay" started as a message of comfort. Has it instead turned the abnormal into the normal?

    Should every struggle be voiced publicly, or are some things better worked through privately? Have we outsourced to therapists what families used to provide? Has modern therapy, by encouraging a victim mentality, become part of the problem it claims to solve?
