It was a case that rocked the allied powers and one which is still being talked about over 100 years after the events which took place.

NBN Book of the Day - Jed Esty, “The Future of Decline: Anglo-American Culture at Its Limits” (Stanford Briefs, 2022)

As the US becomes a second-place nation, can it shed the superpower nostalgia that still haunts the UK? The debate over the US's fading hegemony has raged and sputtered for 50 years, glutting the market with prophecies about American decline. Media experts ask how fast we will fall and how much we will lose, but generally ignore the fundamental question: What does decline mean? What is the significance, in experiential and everyday terms, in feelings and fantasies, of living in a country past its prime? 

Drawing on the example of post-WWII Britain and looking ahead at 2020s America, Jed Esty suggests that becoming a second-place nation is neither disastrous, as alarmists claim, nor avoidable, as optimists insist. Contemporary declinism often masks white nostalgia and perpetuates a conservative longing for Cold War certainty. But the narcissistic lure of "lost greatness" appeals across the political spectrum. As Esty argues, it resonates so widely in mainstream media because Americans have lost access to a language of national purpose beyond global supremacy. It is time to shelve the shopworn fables of endless US dominance, to face the multipolar world of the future, and to tell new American stories. The Future of Decline: Anglo-American Culture at Its Limits (Stanford Briefs, 2022) is a guide to finding them.

Land of the Giants - “Facebook Gets A Facelift”

Long before Mark Zuckerberg renamed Facebook Meta and made an unprecedented pivot into the metaverse, he invented a feature that turned Facebook into a social network behemoth. The News Feed, which put your friends’ status updates onto your homepage, changed the way we interact online. It was a strong statement of Zuckerberg’s values: that connecting, and sharing, at scale would be de-facto good for the world. It was also his first public controversy.

The Daily Signal - What’s Ahead for Supreme Court After ‘Blockbuster Term’

Few times in American history has the Supreme Court received more attention than in the past two months. 


What will history say about this past Supreme Court term? Will we ever know who leaked the draft majority opinion in the Dobbs case? And how is new Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson going to change the Supreme Court moving forward? 


Heritage Foundation legal experts Zack Smith and GianCarlo Canaparo join “The Daily Signal Podcast” to answer these questions and to preview cases the justices will hear in the fall. 


Also on today’s show, we cover these stories: 

  • The Senate Judiciary Committee hosts a hearing about the legal landscape in the country following the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
  • First lady Jill Biden apologizes for drawing a comparison between Hispanic Americans and tacos. 
  • A leftist pro-abortion group offers to pay a cash bounty for information on the location of conservative justices when they are out in public. 


Enjoy the show!
