Ep. 308: Diary of a Psychosis, with Tom Woods
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
My guest this week is one of the best authors and podcasters in our circles. He is the great Tom Woods. Tom is the author of thirteen books, and his latest one is a devastating death blow to the COVID cultists that have plagued our entire existence since 2020. From the "experts" that we were told to trust, to the media, to even our own friends and family members, at times, SO many people were just plain evil and wrong. What Tom did was keep a daily newsletter that documented many of the lies and inconsistent so-called "science" that we were yelled at to trust. From Tom's famous charts where...

Ep. 307: The New Puritans, the New Witches, with Father Zechariah Lynch
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
Today, Fr. Zechariah Lynch returns to the show to discuss some themes in one of his recent blog posts entitled, "We Found Witches! The Inquisition of Control over Human Freedom" over at his . America was founded by Puritans. That Puritan spirit has remained a guiding spirit of American culture and society even today. In the early years, many Christian Puritans were looking for witches to burn at the stake. This is still happening today. What is different in modern times is, while we have lost the spirit of Christianity, broadly speaking, Puritanism is still there, only now fueled by a secular...

Ep. 306: The Controlled Demolition of Civilization, with Jeff Deist
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
Many of you know Jeff Deist as the former president of the Mises Institute. Jeff and I discuss the things that have led to the destruction of our culture and civilization. Jeff brings an economic perspective to this discussion. The Federal Reserve has incentivized a high time preference society. A society with a high time preference is a tribal society rather than a civil society. Why did the boomer generation allow this? What effects has this had on millennials and home ownership? Has it allowed the spirit of nihilism to flourish? Can it be fixed through political means? We discuss all of...

Ep. 305: Why I'm Not a Libertarian, with C.Jay Engel
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
My guest this week has been in and around conservative and libertarian circles for many years. C.Jay Engel used to identify as a libertarian, and in this episode, he discusses his political journey and transformation. Why would this matter? Well, because it's a similar transformation to not only my own but also many of my listeners. This show is absolutely not an excuse to feel pride about ourselves nor malice toward any folks who still consider themselves libertarian. It is, however, to give an honest and intelligent dialogue on politics, power, democracy, rights, Christianity, economics, and...

The time of Great Lent is upon us. There are many misconceptions as well as questions surrounding it.

He is here to field all of my questions regarding Great Lent and provide thorough and accurate answers. Why do we fast? What do we "give up" during Lent? Should we be adding more things rather than just subtracting things during Lent? What is Holy Week? Why is Lent 40 days? We get into all of this and more. Great Lent is the most important time of the year for...

Ep. 301: We No Longer Have a Civilization
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
My guest this week is Jason Mironchuk, the host of the wonderful 2 Bit Podcast. He has been discussing some very intriguing theories on his show recently, and I wanted him to come here and discuss them with me. He postulates that we are no longer living in a civilization. We have returned to the tribal mode that many of us pretend we don't even understand. The spirit of the devouring mother is, in part, what lead us here. This was a function of liberalism, and now we are facing the consequence: the spirit of the vengeful son. What in the heck does all of this mean? What does this look like?...

We get into the circulation of the elites, what a weak regime looks like, what comes next, the process in which this all...

Ep. 299: Texas vs. the Regime, with Jim Jatras and Clark Carlton
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
My home state of Texas and our governor have been making headlines as we pushback against the Federal Government and their attempts to open our borders to a mass invasion. My guests this week are both well versed in law, constitutional issues, American politics, and history. They are also both Orthodox Christians. In this episode, we detail what exactly is happening in Texas, what this fight represents, broadly speaking, as well as the specifics here in Texas. Is this a step towards Texas secession? What happens if the Federal Government pushes back and things heat up? Is TEXIT a legitimate...
