Summary

Having grown tired of Sarah Isgur’s vulgar ways, Jonah cast about for a more grounded and respectable guest to grace today’s Remnant. Upon thumbing through the index cards on his vintage rotary address file, Jonah remembered that Luke Burgis went to seminary and decided he would do. Jonah and Luke discuss institutions, rites of passage, the parable of the lost sheep, integralism, transcendence, crowds, groupthink, fragile children, family time, and AI. Show Notes: —The One and the Ninety-Nine: Forging Identity in the Age of Social Contagion —Last Luke Burgis Remnant —Nisbet - The Quest for Community: A Study in the Ethics of Order and Freedom —Why Postliberalism Failed Remnant —Pope Leo XIV: Magnifica Humanitas —Dispatch Pod on AI The Remnant is a production of ⁠The Dispatch⁠, a digital media company covering politics, policy, and culture from a nonpartisan perspective.
