    Episode 997: America 250 – Rage and the Republic with Jonathan Turley

    Newt talks with legal scholar Jonathan Turley about his bestseller, Rage and the Republic. Turley reveals why Thomas Paine — flawed, brilliant, nearly impossible to like — was the most fascinating figure he's ever researched, and traces Paine's improbable rise from failed Englishman to "penman of the revolution" under Benjamin Franklin's wing. The conversation turns to the French Revolution's unbound passions versus America's structured path to liberty, drawing uneasy parallels to today's unrest in cities like Minneapolis. Turley and Newt dig into socialism's resurgence among young Americans and Europeans, the EU's bureaucratic unraveling, and the coming disruption from AI and robotics. They close on America's 250th anniversary and what it truly means to be American in a revolutionary age. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Episode 996: America 250 – Abraham Lincoln with Dr. Allen Guelzo

    Newt welcomes back historian Dr. Allen Guelzo to discuss Abraham Lincoln's enduring legacy as America approaches its 250th anniversary. Dr. Guelzo, a leading Lincoln scholar, explores what makes the 16th president endlessly fascinating: his resilience, humor, and remarkable ability to learn the presidency on the job despite having no prior executive experience. They examine underexplored areas of Lincoln scholarship, including his pre-1854 political career, his complicated relationships with his generals, and his dealings with Congress. The conversation turns to how the Civil War reshaped federal power and dispels myths about Northern industrialization versus Southern agriculture. Dr. Guelzo speculates on how Reconstruction might have unfolded had Lincoln survived. Their discussion closes with reflections on America's persistent political polarization throughout history versus today's deeper cultural divisions, and Dr. Guelzo shares how he'll spend the Fourth of July at Gettysburg.

    Episode 995: America 250 - The Case for America with Bret Baier

    Newt talks with Bret Baier, Fox News Chief Political Anchor about his new book, “The Case for America: An Argument on Behalf of Our Nation.” Baier makes the case that the United States remains resilient and exceptional despite its flaws. Their conversation moves through American history, tracing the book's structure around six pivotal presidents, from Washington and Jefferson's bitter rivalry-turned-friendship to Lincoln's reframing of the Declaration of Independence. They examine why the nation chooses unity despite constant dissent, the often-overlooked surge of bipartisan legislation in Congress, and the lessons learned from Baier's "Common Ground" segment. They close looking ahead, discussing AI, freedom, and what the next 250 years might hold for America—plus Baier's plans for celebrating the country's 250th birthday on July 4th.

    Episode 994: America 250 – Revolution with Eric Metaxas

    Newt talks with bestselling author Eric Metaxas about his new book, “Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World,” and the deeply Christian roots of America's founding. Metaxas explains why he titled the book simply Revolution, arguing the American Revolution stands apart from failed revolutions like the French and Bolshevik uprisings because the founders explicitly looked to God rather than rejecting him. They explore John Adams's overlooked role, the brutality of British forces during the war, and how figures like George Washington and Samuel Adams saw divine purpose in the fight for independence. Metaxas also pushes back on the secular narrative taught in schools, insisting the founders' faith is inseparable from understanding the Revolution. As America marks its 250th anniversary, he urges listeners to rediscover this history and recognize it as a gift worth defending and passing on. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Episode 993: America 250 – All American Patriotism with Rachel Campos-Duffy

    Rachel Campos-Duffy, cohost of FOX & Friends Weekend and New York Times bestselling author, joins Newt to discuss her new book, All American Patriotism: Celebrating 250 Years of America's Greatness. Rachel shares why she set out to counter decades of what she sees as a "narrative of shame" surrounding American history, and how she gathered her Fox colleagues to write essays on what America means to them, revealing the country's rich regional diversity. She also opens up about her family's Great American Road Trip, inspired by her husband Sean Duffy's own childhood memories, and the deeply personal story of her father's journey from poverty in a Mexican American mining town to the American dream. Newt and Rachel discuss the decline — and possible resurgence — of patriotism among young Americans, the politicization of history curricula, and what the nation's 250th birthday means at this pivotal moment.

    Episode 992: America 250 – George Washington's Forgotten Highway West

    Most Americans know George Washington as a general and president — but few know him as an obsessive surveyor and land speculator with his eye fixed on the West. In this episode, Newt talks with award-winning historian Brady Crytzer about his new book, “The National Road: George Washington and America's First Highway West.” Crytzer traces Washington's lifelong fixation on connecting the Potomac to the Ohio River, the five crises that threatened westward expansion during Washington's presidency, and the unlikely partnership with Treasury Secretary Albert Gallatin — a Swiss-born frontiersman who turned Washington's river-centric dream into America's first great federally funded highway. They explore how the Cumberland Road became a blueprint for the modern interstate system, why it was simultaneously "too early and too late," and what lessons this audacious infrastructure project offers a nation marking 250 years of independence.

    Episode 991: Rainmaker - Solving the West's Water Crisis

    Newt talks with Augustus Doricko, founder and CEO of Rainmaker. They discuss how drone-based cloud seeding could transform America's water future. Doricko explains how new radar and satellite technology finally lets scientists prove precipitation is manmade, solving a problem that has stumped researchers since GE invented cloud seeding in 1946. He breaks down why drones beat manned aircraft on safety and cost, how atmospheric water gets replenished every eight to ten days, and his ambitious goal to double the Colorado River's flow by 2031. Their conversation also covers his path from a UC Berkeley physics dropout to a Peter Thiel Fellow, the legal and environmental questions raised by manipulating weather, and even a provocative idea about weakening hurricanes before they reach shore. It's a fascinating conversation addressing whether technology can finally solve the West's worsening drought crisis. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Episode 990: Grady Connolly A Journey through America's Basilicas

    Newt talks with Grady Connolly, founder of Social Thomist and author of the new book “Basilicas: A Pilgrim's Guide to America's Most Remarkable Catholic Churches.” Connolly recounts his path from a small town in Maine to a full scholarship at Catholic University of America, where daily visits to the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C. inspired a lifelong devotion to his faith. He describes learning how to build a major following for Catholic content online. Their discussion turns to Connolly's four-year quest to visit all 94 minor basilicas in the United States plus the four papal basilicas in Rome, what officially makes a church a "basilica," and standout stops like The Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis and the immigrant built, The Basilica of St. Fidelis in Victoria, Kansas. His book, “Basilicas” is available for pre-order now: https://a.co/d/0bk6zlAm See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
