Robert Wright – Free Speech after Gaza & Charlie Kirk

<p>Support The Glenn Show at https://glennloury.substack.com</p><p>Normally, I release TGS episodes to full subscribers on Mondays and then to the general public on Fridays. But this conversation is a repost from my conversations with Bob Wright at his <a href="https://nonzero.org" target="_blank">Nonzero podcast</a>, so I figured I’d make this one an early public release. <strong>If you like starting your week off with The Glenn Show, and you’re not yet a full subscriber, consider becoming one</strong><a href="https://glennloury.substack.com" target="_blank"><strong> by going here</strong></a><strong>.</strong> We at The Glenn Show are almost entirely subscriber supported. We need your help to keep the show going. So if you’re already a paying subscriber, <strong>thank you for making The Glenn Show possible. </strong></p><p><strong>Video Links</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s" target="_blank">0:00</a> A message from Glenn</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=94s" target="_blank">1:34</a> How this conversation came to be</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=179s" target="_blank">2:59</a> What surprised Glenn most about the Kirk killing</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=536s" target="_blank">8:56</a> Who (or what) is driving our polarization?</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=1056s" target="_blank">17:36</a> Cognitive empathy for MAGA</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=1524s" target="_blank">25:24</a> Reacting to Charlie Kirk on affirmative action</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=2704s" target="_blank">45:04</a> Are we re-running the 1960s?</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=3110s" target="_blank">51:50</a> Glenn’s latest book, Self-Censorship</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=3251s" target="_blank">54:11</a> Why the Manhattan Institute dropped Glenn</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=3842s" target="_blank">1:04:02</a> Glenn on Gaza: “I can’t bear it.”</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=4647s" target="_blank">1:17:27</a> “Genocide” and other Israel speech code flashpoints</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=5218s" target="_blank">1:26:58</a> Has Trump’s anti-antisemitism push chilled campus speech?</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=5818s" target="_blank">1:36:58</a> A few kind and less kind words for Bari Weiss</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=6404s" target="_blank">1:46:44</a> Are Israel’s defenders hurting their cause?</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uojsdVaH__s&#38;t=6734s" target="_blank">1:52:14</a> Glenn’s next big project</p><p>Recorded September 15, 2025</p> <br /><br />This is a public episode.
