In this week’s culture episode, we dissect The Godfather, one of the greatest films of all time. We talk about how this film almost wasn’t made; the many challenges experienced by director Francis Ford Coppola over the course of the production; and include behind the scenes commentary from the actors and writers who brought this masterpiece to the silver screen. This is an episode to be enjoyed by all, whether you have seen the movie once, or two hundred times! (SPOILER ALERT and some of the content may not be suitable for younger listeners.)

What does it mean to be a conservative in the 21st century? How has Donald Trump purified the conservative movement and returned it to its roots? Are identity politics and political correctness random phenomena created by the new Left, or symptoms of some sort of underlying civilizational and cultural decay? In our premiere episode, we seek to address these questions and lay the groundwork for what it really means to be a conservative. Books referenced in podcast: Russell Kirk’s The Conservative Mind and Prospects for Conservatives; Allan Bloom’s The Closing of the American Mind. For more go to rightonpointpodcast.com.
