Jeremy Boreing, co-founder and ex-CEO of The Daily Wire, entrepreneur and American filmmaker joins John Nelson to talk culture, media and faith, and to ask what a post-Christian society becomes.
00:00 “LA Tried to Kill Me”: How Hollywood Made Me Political
02:34 Friends of Abe: The Secret Conservative Group in Hollywood
03:58 “A Battle Tank”: Why We Built The Daily Wire
06:42 The Business Model That Got Me Fired
09:06 Legacy Media Ignored Half the Country
13:33 How Will & Grace Rewired American Morality
17:44 Power, Fame, and the Temptation to Control the Narrative
21:06 Trump and the Rise of Right-Wing Illiberalism
28:02 Why I Stepped Down from The Daily Wire
48:54 “Christ Is King”: Faith, Power, and Tribal Politics
Boreing traces his journey from West Texas to Hollywood, where living “out of fashion” forced him to interrogate his values and faith, and ultimately helped spark a new kind of digital media movement.
They explore how media shapes the moral imagination (and why entertainment can change public opinion faster than elections), whether outrage is an unavoidable temptation, and how power, fame and money warp incentives. Boreing reflects on Trump and evangelicalism, the risk of Christianity turning into a tribal badge, and why he’s alarmed by illiberal and antisemitic currents emerging on parts of the Right.
Finally, Boreing explains why he stepped down from leadership at The Daily Wire and shares his most ambitious creative project yet: adapting Stephen R. Lawhead’s Pendragon Cycle as Rise of the Merlin.
