In today’s episode I speak with Tom Ruby for the third time. In our first conversation we talked about choosing to live simply. In our second conversation, we talked about reasons for doom. Today, we talk about the importance of remembering things that are at risk of being forgotten. We talk about memory, legacy, shout out a lot of our mutuals on Twitter, and talk about why Chesterton was and remains absolutely right in his diagnosis of the world.

If you want to drop either of us a line, you can find Tom on Twitter @bgcts, and me @jeremyakee.

This is the culmination of my three-episode arc with Tom Ruby. Enjoy the show.

In today’s episode I am joined again by Tom Ruby. Our conversation last time was so engrossing that we wanted to keep the fire going. Last time we spoke about some encouraging things, so we decided today to go in the other direction and talk about reasons for doom. He and I are what you would call ‘doomer optimists’. A quick glance at the world as it presently stands yields justified concern, even pessimism. We talk about it today. And join us next week as Tom comes back once more to round out the hat trick of episodes. Here is my second of three conversations with Tom Ruby.

Enjoy the show.

In today’s episode I joined by Mr. Dean Abbott. Dean holds a special place in the annals of Keyhole lore as the podcast’s very first guest on September 13th, 2021 - 3 years and 4 days ago as of this episode’s release. This time around, Dean and I discuss the work he is doing as a coach and pastoral counselor, the lessons to be learned by those he works with, masculinity, intuition, finding one’s ‘place’, and Magnum P.I. What we don’t talk about is the other 7 things I wanted to bring up. So it goes with interesting people.

Enjoy the show.

In today’s episode I speak with Mr. Alan Cornett of the Cultural Debris podcast and, I have to be honest – this episode was recorded over a year ago. It is being published in September of 2024, but we recorded this in the Spring of 2023. Alan, I am quite sorry for the delay. Earlier in life Alan had the distinct privilege of working with Conservative luminary Russell Kirk. Alan and I spoke about the man and the experiences that came from working alongside such a brilliant mind.

Enjoy the show.

In this special episode of Through the Keyhole, I talk for a few minutes about my grandfather, Kenneth Morris, who passed away on 29 August, 2024 at the age of 92.

Thank you for listening.

In this episode of Through the Keyhole, I speak with Mr. Joseph Pearce, an essayist, author, speaker, and biographer of many great figures of the 20th century. For our purposes of this episode we focus in on one man: the late soviet dissident Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Years ago, Mr. pearce was personally invited by Solzhenitsyn to spend a few days at his estate in Vermont for the purpose of a longform interview.

We talk about what it was like to spend time with the man, what he learned about him, and more generally about certain of Mr. Pearce's earlier life experiences that put him on the path that led to Solzhenitsyn.

What is the "Red Pill" and what do those who have taken it believe? It is a popular and problematic concept in modern American culture, particularly in the so-called "Manosphere", and has contributed to the explosion in men's mental health issues. In this episode of Through the Keyhole, I sit down again with the Attachment expert, Adam Lane Smith, to talk about the red pill lies, the truths that refute them, and how to recover from having believed in them in the first place.
