Ron Steslow hosts academics, behavioral economists, social psychologists, politicos, philosophers, anthropologists, journalists, poets, and storytellers—and more—to discuss America’s political present and future and dive into the deeper problems we face as a nation.

  • The Battlefield Laboratory — The Weekly

    The Battlefield Laboratory — The Weekly
    May 16 2026
    Molly McKew (writer and lecturer on Russian influence and information warfare) joins Host Ron Steslow to take stock of the war shifting beneath the surface. They begin with the state of the fighting: Putin’s nuclear theater around Victory Day and the quiet vibe shift on the battlefield as Ukrainian resilience compounds. From there, they turn to Ukraine as a laboratory for the future of war: unmanned systems, data hubs, and the battlefield coordination American defense companies are scrambling to get their hands on. They also weigh the dual-use dilemma of companies like Palantir, whose tools help Ukraine target Russian commanders abroad while building surveillance architecture at home. Then, they examine Europe’s slow awakening from its post-World War II illusions and the persistent reach of Russian hybrid influence. Finally, they unpack the pro-Russian talking points that are proliferating on both ends of the political spectrum and refuse to die. In Politicology+, they dig into what Viktor Orbán’s defeat means for European unity on Ukraine, the differences between healthy and toxic nationalism, and how Europe is quietly rebuilding its defense planning where Article 5 can’t be assumed.

  • The End of Financial Privacy? — The Weekly

    The End of Financial Privacy? — The Weekly
    May 9 2026
    Nicholas Anthony (Research Fellow at the Cato Institute's Center for Monetary and Financial Alternatives) joins Host Ron Steslow to examine how the stablecoin legislation moving through Congress is quietly remaking the financial system and expanding the surveillance state in the process. They dig into the Bank Secrecy Act and the third-party doctrine, the legal architecture that lets the government access Americans' financial records without a warrant. Next, they examine how AI is turning mass financial surveillance from aspiration into operational reality, and how political designations can be weaponized against ordinary Americans through their banks. Then they unpack the contradictions in the Trump administration's posture—anti-CBDC in name, enthusiastically pro-stablecoin in practice—and why programmable private money is functionally a central bank digital currency at arm's length. Finally, they discuss the prosecutions of open-source developers behind privacy tools like Tornado Cash and Samurai Wallet, and what's at stake if the precedent that code is protected speech gets tested in the Supreme Court. In Politicology+, they unpack a 2021 federal mandate that will require every new car sold in America to passively monitor its driver for "impairment" by next year.

I believe the questions that most rationale thinking Americans have would be able to find meaningful discussion and maybe some answers too, particularly on what our Constitution says and what it does not. A promise made is a promise owed, Democracy is not easy. Shows us all how to Act in order to protect our Republic. It is not violence and it is not to over throw the very institutions promised to protect us All.

Honest introspective on what occurred and why

I would not say this is a podcast to get information about political issues, which is what I was hoping for. Its for people who agree with the speakers. Completely partisan. I did not enjoy what is listened to. Its no different than the mainstream media, just meant to sensational and trigger listeners.

totally partisan, not news
