I hope everyone enjoyed the 4th of July yesterday, America’s 250th birthday, and the long weekend. Last Wednesday I had Cameron Macgregor on the podcast for a follow up on our first conversation. This time we talked about the culture issues here in the US, the historical mythology of the West, and the polarity between the masculine and the feminine. If you’re interested in the long term path of the US and Western society, this one’s for you. You can find Cameron on YouTube, Substack, and Instagram.
