Conversations with Peter Boghossian

Peter Boghossian evaluates the weak, performative cowardice of public shaming with filmmaker Rob Feld.

Citizens must reject this self-indulgent behavior to survive political disagreement.

Peter Boghossian and former New Zealand National Party MP Simon O'Connor expose how naive democracies choose comfortable blindness over imminent CCP threats. By bartering core values (liberties, freedoms) for Chinese trade (cheap goodies), the West invites cultural collapse. Ignorance currently costs nothing, but deep apathy erodes our security. If we keep it up, we'll sink our ship, and we'll have nobody to blame but ourselves. Find Peter Boghossian • X • Newsletter • Donate • Podcast • All Socials

Western leaders claim their hands are tied on mass immigration. The evidence says otherwise. In late July 2026, tens of thousands of mostly young Moroccan Muslim men surged into Spain's Ceuta enclave in a single chaotic wave (climbing fences, swimming, overwhelming a territory of 84,000 people) while Moroccan authorities largely stood aside and Spanish policy left the border porous. Most were turned back, but the episode exposed the pattern: Islamic immigration pressure meets deliberate political paralysis. Peter Boghossian and Raymond Ibrahim strip the theater. This is not an unprecedented failure of will. The open border is the policy. Follow Raymond YouTube Find Peter Boghossian • X • Newsletter • Donate • Podcast • All Socials

Peter Boghossian presses Dr. Drew on the treatments medicine won't touch, including ibogaine for opioid addiction, peptides, GLP-1 risks, and hormone replacement therapy. Dr. Drew doesn't hedge. What emerges is an argument for evidence-based medicine in an era of regulatory timidity, and with Trump's executive order on psychedelics, that conversation just became more urgent. The discussion ends where it should, not with longevity hacks, but with the question of what makes a life worth living. For more Dr. Drew Website Follow Peter Boghossin for more.

Craig Biddle makes the case that Objectivism is not simply Ayn Rand's philosophy but the only philosophically defensible foundation for individual rights, reason, and a free society. Peter Boghossian pushes back, probing the epistemological claims, the treatment of altruism, and whether a closed system can survive genuine philosophical scrutiny. What emerges is a collision between a defender of a complete moral framework and a skeptic who refuses to let any idea off the hook. If you think philosophy is abstract, this conversation will change your mind. More From Craig Biddle YouTube Twitter Website Follow Peter Boghossian for more.

Project Hail Mary is rare: A science fiction film that refuses to talk down to its audience, built on hard physics, curiosity, and two characters solving problems through reason rather than force. Peter Boghossian, Reid Nicewonder, and Brett Hall dig into what the film gets right about how knowledge is actually created, why scientific progress may require open societies, and what it would mean to encounter a civilization that evolved entirely different physics. The film's quiet optimism turns out to be its most radical feature. More From Brett Hall Twitter: @ToKTeacher YT: @bretthall9080   Follow Peter Boghossian for more.

Global macro strategist Michael Every of Rabobank joins Peter Boghossian to dissect how conflict in the Middle East is fracturing global energy markets, exposing the fatal flaw in mainstream economic models: They assume everything returns to normal.
