My son Spencer Klavan (no relation) joins me discuss his new book, How to Save the West: Ancient Wisdom for 5 Modern Crises. We tackle such pertinent questions as: how we all can save the world on a small scale, how the modern trend of transhumanism is making us deeply unhappy, how western philosophy defined most of the problems we face today, and how we can refer to ancient wisdom to solve these modern crises.

But the big question is: is there an E in Spencer's Klavan? 🤔😒
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love their relationship! Look at them laughing together, their love and pride for each other shining in their eyes.
I require Spencer to read this on audible. I will buy it for everyone I know
It's a magnificent book and Spencer's a gent. I hope it's a blessing for many!
It was so cute to see them laugh together
Ya that pretty much established the paternity.😂😂
Thank you for the interesting discussion.
And I agree that the transgender movement is a terrible part of the modern crisis.
But respectfully, I also say that what is called gay marriage is part of the crisis too. In the Western tradition, and including Christianity (and also perhaps the other Abrahamic religions) there can only ever be a marriage between a man and a woman.
What has happened to enable us to claim that the wisdom of the last 3,000 years is wrong in relation to this fundamental institution - marriage?
I would be grateful if the two Klavans could have a discussion about this point, and what distinguishes so-called gay marriage from what you both agree are deformities of Western culture.
Irony doesn't even begin to describe it...
Andrew must be so proud. It would be so great to sit with them around the table,
Hey Andrew, it's obvious you did a good job raising your kid. He is as awesome as you are! Smiles all around...
As I understand it, he's gay. Correct me if I'm wrong. If so, it invalidates the core source of his argument, which is ancient biblical wisdom. There seems to be a lot of gymnastics to avoid the problem of homosexuality.
@@Andromeda.onTH-cam I was mistaken to think that he was Andrew's kid... he is not. Just has the same last name. Oh, guess he should have been stoned then, as in the Old Testament...
@@Andromeda.onTH-camHe is attracted to men, that’s not something he can control is it?
Great show
Articulate man, Mr. Klavan. (good job)
1:00 He's laughing on the outside but on the inside he's hurting.
Love this! Can’t wait for more!
Chronological chauvinism...great term. I like it. I am familiar with the phenomenon but never had such a succint way of describing it.
They're too funny 😁
Hey daily wire editors: we don't need cutscenes. We are a different kind of viewer. I would just enjoy watching the people talk rather than have mindless often pointless cut scenes to other clips that have nothing to do with what we're talking about here. Love the content, but we aren't your everyday TH-cam viewers. We're watching this and we have more than a 15 second attention span. Thank you
Press Start to skip cutscenes.
When did we vote for you to speak for all the viewers watching this? 😂
"Ancient wisdom"?
If you're referring to Dementia Joe, the "ancient" part certainly applies. But the "wisdom"?
Not so much.
Son is very handsome. Looks like dad with hair. Will buy Spencer's book.
It's really good. I got to read it early for my interview with Spencer
Looking forward to more parts.
It's very reassuring to hear my own thoughts on the slide into transhumanist nihilism echoed. I fell very hard into this trap as a young man and now that I've managed to claw my way back up, as much as is possible, I find my society chasing my younger self downward into that pit. It frightens me that I ever thought this way and bless you both for raising the warning. Don't make the mistakes I made, eschewing family, tradition and children, and accept the worthless scrip that they offer in exchange for your soul.
Woohoo! A reason to go to the bookstore!
Love the interview! Me and Andrew Klavan both have something in common: We've both had an interview with Spencer Klavan about his book "How to Save the West." 😀 My interview with him will air on Valentines Day. Was such a privilege to get to chat with him for a bit
Looking forward to it, subbed.
@@IG88AAA thanks! Hope you enjoy it 😀
Why would you ask a practicing homosexual how to save the West?
@@thegirlcancook07 well, a simple answer (to what I hope is a genuine question) is that Spencer’s sexuality has nothing to do with whether the wisdom of the West can help us in the present crises we face (which is the theme of his book). Whether I agree morally or not with his sexuality isn’t addressed in my interview, instead we talk about the issues he discusses in his book
@@FaithInFocus you're wrong, and I'm glad you're exposing yourself since your humanist perspective is clearly in direct contrast to Christian principle and Biblical wisdom. Spencer's sinful, contradictory lifestyle actually has EVERYTHING to do with how to (or how not to, in Spencer's case) save the West. Are you a sodomite as well? How does normalizing and legitimizing the erasure of women as a cornerstone in the traditional, heterosexual marital unit that tethers this country's traditional values and instead elevating the lgbt community as authoritative voices in the Conservstive movement help save the West?
Adopting/Adapting/incorporating these concepts into a larger world view for writing purposes. Bravo, Knights Klavan.
What a lovely speaker and thinker Spencer is. Andrew should be incredibly proud!
Guinness Book of Worlds Records!
The Shortest book in the World….” Joe-bot’s good deeds!
( How Gorgeously Magnificent). I LOVE Your Dad!)
Andrew, I HIGHLY recommend you watch Mamoru Oshii's 1995 Ghost in the Shell. As the title suggests, it deals with the whole idea that humanity is nothing more than a ghost in a machine. Plus the animation/artwork is phenomenal!
Does it answer “ What’s my password.” Open Sesame.
These transhumanists seem to have a samr problem as the old gnostics from the first century A.D.
This great book has just been ttanslated to portuguese
People started to live not taking anything into account. Stopped using the neocortex and live by instinct
Bring back stoning!!!
All of the commentary we have heard from Klavan over the years which you know was also planted in his sons heart and mind throughout his life has taken wonderful life and grown into this marvelous young, intelligent, deep thinking, mature, level headed, apparently kind man whom Klavan must be so proud. You and your wife have done a great job! And he spells his last name with no "e's" also. Just imagine!
Is his son gay or not. As I understand it from Andrew himself, he's gay. I wish this would be clarified up front when this was put out. Not because I hate gays but because my moral beliefs don't align with that lifestyle and people have a right to watch this with this information on hand.
@@Andromeda.onTH-cam His son is gay. We are all made up of so many aspects and I did not include gay because that is just one aspect. Whether we believe the actions of the different parts of our personality or lives is good or bad, right or wrong is our determination according to our beliefs. I simply listed a few attributes. He seems kind and highly intelligent and there is much for his father to be proud.
I'd rather have no kids than have a gay son. Just being honest
@@thegirlcancook07 What a tragic action, to give up children for fear of a situation whose outcomes have been changeable. It is factually on record. There are too many changes of outcomes in life to believe nothing can change.
@@mvies77 I think knowing that your child is living a life of unrepentant sin and on his way to hell is far, far more tragic
@Andrew Klavan That is a lot of brain power in one room! Although, the older, bald gentleman seemed to be bringing down the combined levels quite considerably....
How does Gay sex help us Save the west?
I think that’s terrific. My personal journey is living in the moment, with the flow and never against. I live simply. I accept everything Universe offers with gratitude and I listen to Lao Tzu. I love life. ❤
Seems, click, the fall of the republic isn't sarcasm, it's a report.
Excellent. Thank you for this discussion and this book, Klavans. It has brought a desire to work through the great books of the Western tradition with my children back to the forefront of my mind. Thanks, truly.
I'd rather trade the Crypto market as its more profitable. I make an average of $15,000 per week even though I barely trade myself
Spot on.

We are lucky christians embraced Greek and Roman philosophy, else they would have ended up just like (too radical)Muslims or Jews(Old Testament laws).
