<p>Joel Berry, Managing Editor of The Babylon Bee, joins The Western Spirit to break down what he sees as a major shift inside conservative media — and why figures like Tucker Carlson and the “America First” ecosystem are starting to lose cultural and political influence.Berry explains how audience incentives, online radicalization, antisemitism controversies, and internal fractures on the right are reshaping the movement — often in ways that alienate mainstream conservatives and weaken long-term credibility.In this conversation, we discuss:• Why Tucker Carlson’s influence is no longer what it once was• How the conservative media ecosystem is changing• The rise of ideological purity tests and audience capture• Israel, antisemitism, and the fracture inside MAGA• Why satire often sees political trends before pundits do• The future of conservative media and political messaging• What The Babylon Bee gets right (and wrong) about the culture warBerry offers an insider’s perspective on how political movements rise, fracture, and sometimes collapse under their own incentives.A sharp conversation about power, media, influence, and the future of the American right.👉 If you value long-form conversations that challenge narratives, please like, comment, and subscribe.📌 Support the channel by buying me coffee! ☕️ https://buymeacoffee.com/westernspirit📌 For business inquiries, including advertising opportunities on our show, please email us at: [email protected]#johnandersonChapters00:00Ariel&#39;s Journey and the Importance of Expression02:10Protests and Global Tensions04:36Cognitive Dissonance in Feminism and Radical Islam07:06The Complexity of U.S. Intervention in Iran10:38Shifting Political Alliances Among American Jews12:47The Rise of the &#39;Woke Right&#39; and Its Implications19:18The Human Condition and Anti-Semitism21:38Faith, Culture, and the Jewish Connection24:14The Role of Influencers in Modern Conservatism32:19The Controversy of Cancel Culture36:13Gatekeeping in Conservatism39:00JD Vance: A Political Dilemma43:32The Role of Community and Faith49:49The Need for Connection in Modern Society54:00The Search for Meaning Beyond Religion57:18The Future of Europe and Faith01:01:10Political Shifts and the Jewish Community #JoelBerry#BabylonBee#TuckerCarlson#ConservativeMedia#MAGA#Politics#Israel</p>
