Carl Benjamin

Carl Benjamin, AKA Sargon of Akkad, is a highly successful YouTuber and creator of the Lotus Eaters podcast and educational platform. 

In this fascinating discussion with Nick Dixon, he talks about why he is no longer a liberal, what it means to be an 'Englishman', and why we need what he calls 'Postmodern traditionalism'.

He also reflects on his recent Twitter exchange with Peter Hitchens, and explains his theory of 'Sensible Centrism'. Oh, and he tells us why we should bring back the death penalty.

Not for the easily offended, but an excellent episode for those with an open mind.
