Nicholas Eberstadt – On the Rising Non-Working Class and What Their Despair Says About Us All
High Noon
09/14/22 • 50 min
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.

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 fourth episode of High Noon, Inez Stepman talks with Professor John McWhorter, a professor of linguistics at Columbia University and host of a podcast on his subject of expertise called Lexicon Valley. He is also a co-host of the popular Glenn Show, along with Glenn Loury on Bloggingheads TV, as well as an important and valued commentator on matters of race and identity.
Stepman and McWhorter discuss the subjects of two different books he has out right now. The first, on the history of English profanities, is Nine Nasty Words: English in the Gutter, Then, Now and Forever. The second, The Elect, lays out how the ideology surrounding race and identity has moved from mere political commitment to unquestionable religion, and how damaging that is to our ability to think, respect one other, and have adult conversations.

This week on High Noon, Alex Kaschuta, the host of the always-fascinating Subversive Podcast and author at her Substack Garden of Earthly Delights, and one of the most courageous and interesting commentators on the internet, joins the pod.
Alex and Inez talked about whether the vibe shift with regard to Sheryl Sandburg-style girlbossing is real, whether constraint is a necessary precondition for freedom, and the tragic but captivating position of Eastern European countries trapped between the woke West pushing seemingly spent liberalism and the hard power of Russian tanks. They also discussed the inevitable consequences of prosperity, the very real anti-narcissism transformations of motherhood, and tech bro asceticism vs. right-wing bodybuilding.

On this episode of High Noon, Inez Stepman interviews Tony Kinnett, the Indianapolis teacher and curriculum coordinator behind a viral video explaining how critical race theory makes its way into public school lessons. Kinnett is one of the founders behind the heterodox teacher hub Chalkboard Review, as well as a guest columnist in a variety of outlets.
Kinnett debunks the post-Virginia election gaslighting about CRT not being part of what is taught in public schools, and blows the whistle on how districts get away with lying to parents about it. He also shares why he’s chosen to come forward like this, even though it may threaten his job.

In the eighth episode of High Noon, Inez Stepman speaks with Fox News contributor and podcast host Ben Domenech. Domenech is the publisher and co-founder of The Federalist, as well as a host for Fox News Primetime.
In this conversation, Stepman and Domenech explore the futures of the left and right, the failures of America’s elite class, and the responses of the two parties to shifting political coalitions and the potential realignment of working-class and Hispanic voters.
They discuss the importance of the culture war and why Paul Ryan and other establishment GOP figures, as well as some on the “new right,” dismiss cultural concerns as unimportant compared with economic ones.
Tune in to hear one of the only political observers to get the roadmap right in 2016 give his best predictions for our future.

Oren Cass – On Economic Nationalism, the Mistakes of the Smart Set, and Democratic Accountability
High Noon
04/13/22 • 72 min
This week's High Noon guest is Oren Cass. Cass is the executive director of American Compass, a heterodox conservative think tank that looks at how our economy can or should be restructured to support family, industry, and the nation-state. He is also the author of a book, The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America.
Cass and Stepman talked about how economics and culture intertwine, the future of the right and left with regard to economic issues, and the pressures on working- and middle-class American families. They also debate a bit about the democratic accountability lines of the education system.
