Nicholas Eberstadt holds the Henry Wendt Chair in Political Economy at AEI and is the author of the book Men Without Work, in which he chronicles the story of the growing group of prime-age men who are neither trying to find work nor in training or education. Eberstadt’s work challenges some of the underlying assumptions populist narratives of the last six years have relied upon, and paints a picture of how this group in many ways is the canary in the coal mine for the existential crisis faced by the West.

In the twelfth episode of High Noon, Inez Stepman speaks with Mike Gonzalez of the Heritage Foundation, author of The Plot to Change America: How Identity Politics is Dividing the Land of the Free.


Before entering the think tank world, Gonzalez worked as an international journalist for many years, including covering the Mujahideen in Afghanistan and being jailed by a dictator in Panama, and ultimately landing as a columnist for the Wall Street Journal for many years. He has another book slated to come out this fall, on the organization Black Lives Matter. His work on the formation of political identities for broad racial categories like “Hispanic” and “Asian,” along with his criticism of critical race theory, has earned him the ire of the nation’s largest teachers’ union.


In this episode, Inez and Mike discuss his experiences living under a multitude of different regimes, why America is worth saving, the intellectual roots of “wokeness,” and why some critics of the legislation states are passing to try to remove CRT from public school curriculums is wrongheaded.

In the fifth episode of High Noon, Inez Stepman speaks with Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute, who almost certainly has more police community meetings under her belt than any reporter at The New York Times, about rising crime in America’s cities.


Stepman and Mac Donald discuss the reality of who is most often victimized by high crime rates, lay out a defense of meritocracy, and address critiques of the Enlightenment from the left and right.

In the sixth episode of High Noon, Inez Stepman speaks with two guests uniquely situated to enlighten listeners on the increasingly pressing problems posed by Big Tech companies and corporate America going “woke.”


Vivek Ramaswamy is an entrepreneur and author with incredible insights from the belly of the beast on political discrimination, “shareholder” capitalism, and how big business is invading what was once rightly considered the domain of democracy and self-government. Rachel Bovard is the policy director at the Conservative Partnership Institute with years of experience working in the Senate on issues related to censorship, privacy, and technology. She’s the author of numerous unfortunately prophetic essays in the last several years blowing the whistle on the dangers of a developing private social credit system in the U.S.


The episode tackles and brings clarity to situations like Big Tech political censorship, corporate boycotts and interference with state policies on culture war issues, and more.

In this episode of High Noon, David Marcus joins the podcast. Marcus is the political reporter for the New York Post and the author of Charade: The COVID Lies That Crushed a Nation. Before becoming a political writer, he was an actor and the co-founder of a theater company.


David and Inez discuss the failure of expertise and institutional actors during the course of the coronavirus pandemic, and the erosion of public trust resulting from unclear instruction and political bias.


Additionally, David enlightens the audience on the institutional forces pushing the arts steadily to the left, and they discuss the disconnect between the audience and an increasingly avant-garde art scene that caters only to a handful of tastemakers, donors, and government grant offices, as well as how to reintroduce universal themes that make art meaningful for a broader swath of the public.

Inez Stepman talks to Dr. Debra Soh about the biology of sex differences, how to tell if the science you’re relying on has been infected with politics, and the courage it takes to stand up for scientific truth in a world gone woke.

In the eleventh episode of High Noon, Inez Stepman speaks with Michael Knowles. Knowles is the Author of Speechless: Controlling Words, Controlling Minds, as well as the satirical Reasons to Vote for Democrats. He’s the host of The Michael Knowles Show at The Daily Wire, “The Book Club” at PragerU, and the popular podcast Verdict with Ted Cruz.


Stepman and Knowles dig deeper into the specifics of our heritage, beyond some of the dueling buzzwords in our time about free speech and cancel culture. They discuss the limitations of both the libertarian conception of the United States and the anti-liberal New Right set of policy proposals.


Michael Knowles asserts that every society places some limitations on speech, and that the right’s response to “cancel culture” has collapsed into ineffectual proceduralism. They also talk about why recognizing sex differences is foundational for a truly free society.

In the ninth episode of High Noon, Inez Stepman speaks with Emily Jashinsky. Emily wears many hats, from culture editor at The Federalist to educating young journalists at the Young America’s Foundation’s internship program. More recently, she's taken the helm of The Hill’s Rising , a popular independent news program that pairs populist right and populist left perspectives.


Which came first: culture or economics? And is the concentration of economic power leading to a cultural monopoly? What is the future of independent media? Stepman and Jashinsky touch on these topics and more.

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.
