    Trump's First Year: Venezuela Bombings, Becoming a Police State, and Reviewing Our Predictions

    Reflecting on Trump's First Year: A Retrospective Analysis In this live episode from the LCI Greenroom, hosts Jacob Winograd and Cody Cook dissect the political landscape a year into Trump’s latest term. They revisit predictions made about Trump’s presidency, covering key areas such as foreign policy, immigration, economic policies, and the turbulent political atmosphere. They reflect on their own expectations and what has transpired, including discussions on Venezuela, Iran, and issues like tariffs and government spending. The conversation also navigates the personal impacts of their political journeys, the importance of maintaining hope and integrity, and the broader implications for libertarians and Christians engaging in politics.

    Can James Lindsay Save Israel and Western Civilization From The Trap of Catharsis?

    In this episode of the LCI Greenroom, Doug Stuart and Jacob Winograd sit down with James Lindsay to explore whether the West — and Israel by extension — can escape what Lindsay calls the “trap of catharsis.” Drawing from his recent essay Civilization vs. Catharsis, James explains how our culture has replaced reason and moral responsibility with emotional release — a worldview that seeks justice through outrage and purification rather than truth and reconciliation. Together, the discussion unpacks how this mindset, rooted in critical theory and postmodern thought, shapes everything from social movements to the global narratives surrounding Israel, the West, and the meaning of civilization itself. But this wasn’t a debate — it was an attempt to understand. Doug and Jacob press James on the taboos surrounding foreign policy discussion, the tendency to frame every disagreement as friend versus enemy, and whether defending the West from ideological decay risks mirroring the same tribalism it seeks to resist. The conversation wrestles with the spiritual and moral foundations of truth, liberty, and civilization — and asks whether any of them can survive without humility, repentance, and the courage to confront our own moral blindness.

    How Do We Know What’s True in the Age of Digital Media Warfare?

    How do we know what’s true in the age of digital media warfare? Tonight on the LCI Greenroom, we’re diving deep into the world of propaganda, psyops, and narrative control — and how easily our confirmation bias can be manipulated. I’ll be joined by two guests for this important conversation: returning guest Mark Puls of the Knocked Conscious Podcast and Jason of the Drop the Mask Podcast. Together, we’ll explore how propaganda works in real time, how to separate truth from spin, and why critical thinking has never been more essential. We'll talk about the latest we know about the Charlie Kirk shooting, and also have a segment where we react to reels and headlines.

    Am I a Leftist?? Exploring the Underbelly of Right Wing Nationalism

    Tonight, I’m joined by my friend Jeremiah Harding to respond to a recent smear from a self-proclaimed “libertarian nationalist” who openly flirts with Nazi symbolism and rhetoric. This individual accused me and Dave Smith of being “leftists” and “anti-West” — and we’re going to break down exactly why that claim is ridiculous. We’ll examine the arguments, the political philosophy behind them, and the disturbing overlap between authoritarian nationalism and certain segments of the so-called “liberty” movement. Expect receipts, sharp analysis, and no punches pulled.

    Is Libertarianism Left-Wing or Right-Wing?: A Debate on Liberty’s True Nature

    In this special Libertarian Christian Institute livestream, Jacob Winograd moderates a spirited discussion between Cody Cook (cohost of the Libertarian Christian Podcast) and Alex Bernardo (host of the Protestant Libertarian Podcast). The question: Is libertarianism fundamentally left-wing or right-wing? Cody makes the case that libertarianism’s philosophical and historical roots are on the left, but with sharper distinctions than most leftists draw. Alex defends the position that libertarianism is right-wing, drawing on Murray Rothbard’s Egalitarianism as a Revolt Against Nature and arguing for a fundamentally hierarchical view of society. Join us as we debate the true nature of liberty and its place in the political spectrum.

    Theology First or History First? Making Sense of Scripture in Modern Times with Alex Bernardo

    In this episode of the LCI Green Room, host Jacob Winograd converses with Alex Bernardo of the Protestant Libertarian Podcast on the nuanced approaches to reading and interpreting the Bible. They examine the balance between historical-critical methods and systematic theology, discussing how Christians can navigate scripture across various traditions. Specific examples like Romans 13 and the parable of the workers in the vineyard highlight the ongoing debate over these perspectives, stressing the need for humility and open-mindedness in theological interpretation. The episode underscores the significance of considering both historical context and theological principles to fully understand scriptural teachings.

    How to Reclaim Culture Without the Ring of Power: Reforming Christianity and Natural Law with Greg Baus

    In this episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, Jacob Winograd delves into the complex interplay between Christian cultural engagement and political theory within a reformed theological framework. Joined by Gregory Baus from the Reformed Libertarians podcast, they tackle the intricate doctrines of common and special grace, eschatology, and the two kingdoms' perspective, while challenging the misuse of these ideas in modern political discourse, particularly in relation to Christian Nationalism. Jacob and Greg discuss the distinctions between personal and national ethics, the pitfalls of radical retreatism, and the importance of a coherent, biblically grounded approach to cultural transformation.

    You Are The Power and Christ is King with Spike Cohen

    Is the real power within us—or above us? Can we fight for liberty while also surrendering to the true King? In this raw, deeply personal conversation, Spike Cohen returns to the LCI Greenroom to explore the question behind the movement he helped create: Are we the power… or is Christ the King? Since publicly sharing his return to the Christian faith, Spike has been reflecting on how liberty, activism, and spiritual truth intersect—and sometimes collide. We’ll dive into the heart of You Are the Power, how his mission has changed, and whether the Christian calling complements or confronts the ethos of decentralized politics. Can Christ be King if we’re still trying to be the power?
