Kelsey Bolar – On Identity Crisis and How Institutions Are Going to War with Parents

Season 1, Ep. 74

This week, IWF’s own Kelsey Bolar joins High Noon to discuss her documentary series Identity Crisis, which tells the stories of minors struggling with their identities in the age of gender ideology, their parents, and their later struggles as they “detransition.” Kelsey and Inez talk about the betrayal institutional actors inflict on vulnerable kids and families, and the difficult line between the personal and political.

  • 23. Madeleine Kearns – How Our Gender Battles Leave Out Truth and the Inadequacies of New Atheism

    01:02:48||Season 2, Ep. 23
    Madeleine Kearns, staff writer at National Review and senior fellow with IWF, comes back on the High Noon pod to discuss the emerging patchwork landscape of laws around gender “transition” in the U.S. and how they compare to the landscape in her native Scotland, which is currently going through a free speech crisis. Maddy and Inez also discuss how these battles are often taking place in a sort of halfway turf—on the fields of politics or The Science—that ignores deeper questions of truth, and how Richard Dawkins’ viral video about cultural Christianity ties into the inadequacies of '90s liberalism and new atheism.--High Noon is an intellectual download featuring conversations that make possible a free society.

    01:10:37||Season 2, Ep. 22
    Emily returns for her monthly High Noon chat, this time about Ronna McDaniel’s quick exit at NBC and the media’s unshakable ability to only allow conservative voices into the discussion if they’ve already acquiesced to the Left on all meaningful priors. The ladies also talk about Christine Blasey-Ford’s return, due process, and a new kind of quiet resurgence of #MeToo accusations that have been avoiding backlash.--High Noon is an intellectual download featuring conversations that make possible a free society.

  • 21. Timothy Carney – Family Unfriendly America

    59:33||Season 2, Ep. 21
    Alienated America author Timothy Carney returns to the High Noon podcast to discuss his new book, Family Unfriendly: How Our Culture Made Raising Kids Much Harder Than it Needs to Be. Tim lays out how our modern baby bust is more than economic, and instead is propped up by a series of cultural and policy defaults that make life for families much harder and more isolating. Tim and Inez discuss over-scheduled sports, helicopter parenting, and the total collapse of the village it takes to raise a happy and healthy next generation, as well as pragmatic tips and policy changes that would make it easier for moms and dads who feel like they’re on a social ice floe.--High Noon is an intellectual download featuring conversations that make possible a free society.

  • 20. Rachel Bovard – On Making the Senate Work and the New Virtue Signaling Big Business

    01:03:27||Season 2, Ep. 20
    Rachel Bovard of Conservative Partnership Institute is back from a stint as Executive Director of the powerful Republic Steering Committee in the Senate. She explains why the Senate—and the legislative branch more generally—seems to function only as a clearing house to confirm and fund the activities of the other two branches, and how it can take back some of its power. Also, Rachel and Inez discuss the public-private nature of corporate power, and how cultural collusion and market share interact to become a new kind of threat to traditional American freedom.--High Noon is an intellectual download featuring conversations that make possible a free society.
