Episode 8 - Thoughts on Turning Point USA's AmericaFest 2025

Evan had the pleasure of attending Turning Point USA's AmericaFest 2025 in Phoenix, Arizona, in the wake of the tragic assassination of the group's founder, Charlie Kirk. Turning Point USA is a conservative activist group focused on galvanizing and energizing the conservative movement, with a primary focus on young people in high school and college. Evan gives his thoughts on where the conservative movement is right now, features three interviews with attendees and a protestor from the Westboro Baptist Church, and is overall heartened by the people he met and what happened at the conference. But, there are still some warning signs present which he speaks to as well. Tune in for the full breakdown.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------References/Additional Readinghttps://ifunny.co/picture/there-is-more-diversity-of-thought-on-the-political-right-BwbbDTCTC Heat map/chart referenced on diversity of thought on the right vs. the lefthttps://www.tpaction.com/scorecard - Turning Point USA's scorecard for both state governments and representatives in Congress.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you enjoy the show, and wish to help defray costs, feel free to give a tip on Ko-Fi, or on Buzzsprout.https://ko-fi.com/evanextemporaneoushttps://www.buzzsprout.com/2554066/supportAny such contribution is never necessary, but greatly appreciated.
