The second annual Philip Ludwell III Southern Orthodoxy Conference was held in my town of Lockhart, TX, from September 6th-8th, 2024. For the folks that purchased a VIP ticket, we held a live recording of this podcast in a nice, private room with seating, cocktails, and hors d'oeuvres. My guests, as you can see, were very special, and I wanted to hit them with a litany of topics to discuss. We hit things like: Israel, Ukraine, the explosion of Orthodoxy, Baptism vs. Chrismation, the need for spiritual fathers, online Orthodoxy, and much more. I was very fortunate to have a wonderful crowd, fantastic production, and top notch guests. This one is special. Again, special thanks to all my guests (in case the list is too long for the title!): Fr. John Whiteford, Fr. Ignatius, Fr. Peter Heers, Jim Jatras, Conrad Franz, and Dissident Mama.

Tommy Green, lead singer of Holy Name and former lead singer of Sleeping Giant, joins me to discuss his journey from Pentecostal to Orthodox, his music and the influence of Orthodoxy on it, his involvement in ministering to victims of human trafficking, and more. From Facedown Records: "A season of death and profound brokenness caused Tommy Green to dive deeply into the very beginnings of the church, seeking for the connection between holy orthodoxy and liturgical practices, and today’s modern Pentecostal charismatic church. He found beauty in a hidden treasure that he didn’t fully understand, his pain driving him to a place he never intended to go. Orthodox imagery is extremely influential to the graphics and lyrics of Holy Name's work. The holy orthodox church and the historical origin of Christianity became very important to Tommy personally and that’s why the imagery seems so saturated with traditional ancient orthodox Christianity."

Our friend Scott Horton is back on the show this week. Scott is the head man over at the Libertarian Institute and AntiWar.com. He's here to help us understand where things stand between NATO, Russia, Ukraine, and the United States. How did the conflict happen? Why did the press tell us that Russia was going to lose? Where are things right now, and where are things headed?

My guest this week runs the Kingpilled podcast as well as the Astrolabe. His political analysis has been pretty accurate over the last year as he's explained the PayPal mafia and how he predicted the pick of JD Vance for the VP slot. We discuss the ridiculous and fake nature of the Kamala Harris propaganda, the coming Trump victory, the positives and negatives of that, as well as what this circulation of the elites that is underway means, and who is running the show.

My guest this week has had a wild journey in and out of Christianity, Satanism, the Occult, and more. He's now an Orthodox Christian, and he's here to discuss the twists, turns, and life-changing moments he's experienced. From the Left Hand Path, thelema, and the Church of Satan, to the Assemblies of God, to the Ancient Faith, Elias has seen a lot. I think you'll find this to be a fascinating discussion.

My guest today is the founder of OrthodoxEthos.com, Father Peter Heers. I am blessed to be able to head over to Mt. Athos as part of a pilgrimage with Fr. Peter. In this episode, we discuss what Mt. Athos is, what it has meant and continues to mean to the Church, what our trip will be like, and more. Fr. Peter has been to Mt. Athos more times than we can recount, and he gives us a deep dive on the beauty and wonders of one of the most sacred places on the planet.

My guest this week is Dr. Jeannie Constantinou, back with us once again to discuss her works on Andrew of Caesarea's commentary on the Book of Revelation. Andrew is a Church Father, and his commentary on Revelation is the go-to work on the Apocalypse for the Orthodox Church. Since the late 1800's, there have been a lot of misconceptions and misrepresentations regarding the Book of Revelation. There have been movies and books like "The Late Great Planet Earth" and the "Left Behind" series that falsely tell of a pre-tribulation rapture. And now in pop culture, many use out-of-context quotes from the book and fit their own predictions and ideas into them. Jeannie explains how Andrew of Caesarea studied the Book of Revelation, his interpretations of it, how he arrived at various explanations, and more. Why isn't the Book of Revelation read liturgically in our Church? We get into that and a lot more.

My guest today is Sister Anastasia. We cover some of the themes in her book, "You Are Mine" as well as some of the things she writes about on her Substack: . The wild journey Sister Anastasia took to becoming a nun revealed much about addiction and inner purification to her. In this discussion, Sister Anastasia answers some common yet hard questions about spirituality, addiction, even Yoga and head covering in Church.

My guest this week is the man behind the Study of Stuff Podcast and SOS Radio: Mano Elia. Mano was born into Orthodox Christianity and as a teen, drifted into occult, New Age, and Hermeticism. We discuss what he learned throughout that journey and what pulled him back towards Christ and the Orthodox Church. It's a sort of Prodigal Son story with some interesting twists and turns.

My guests this week are both friends of the show and wonderful podcasters in their own right. They are Jason Mironchuk from the 2Bit podcast and Matthew Erickson from the Kingpilled podcast. They are here to dive into the current spiritual shift we are living through and the emerging counter-elite that is about to take over once this current regime crumbles. Jason breaks down the transition from the devouring mother into the age of the vengeful son and how to fight the appealing revenge feeling many of us will have. Matt breaks down the PayPal mafia, who's behind the emerging counter-elite, and what this all means as the current regime crumbles under its own incompetence.

My guest this week is one of my favorite men to have on the show: Father John Whiteford. Fr. John is Archpriest and pastor at St. Jonah Orthodox Church in Spring, Texas. Fr. John was a representative of the ROCOR Diocese of Chicago and Mid-America at the signing of the Act of Canonical Communion between the Moscow Patriarchate and the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia, in Moscow, on May 17, 2007. He is currently the general editor of the St. Innocent Liturgical Calendar. He is also the dean of the southern deanery (Texas and Louisiana) of the Diocese of Chicago and Mid-America ROCOR. He is here to discuss the bad theology being preached by many American Protestant preachers that is leading to horrible death and destruction in the Middle East. There is a trend amongst many American Christians that the State of Israel must be supported and defended no matter what. Because of a very modern take on certain scriptures, many believe the Jews are God's "chosen people", the State of Israel is the same thing as the Biblical Israel, dispensationalism is a legitimate Biblical teaching, and that modern day Judaism is the same thing as the Judaism of the Old Testament. Fr. John explains where these misconceptions arose from and why and how they're not only against true Church teachings but also lead to horriific consequences. As St. Matthew said, "Ye shall know them by their fruits."

Today, Orthodox Christian and journalist Jon Gabriel is with us. With the recent disaster of the new Libertarian Party presidential candidate causing many to leave the party, Jon and I discuss the philosophy of libertarianism and relate it to not only societal reality but the Orthodox Christian worldview. What good does it offer? Are parts of it irreconcilable with Christianity? Jon and I are both ex-libertarians and now Orthodox Christians. We discuss our journeys and where we see libertarianism and politics broadly now as Orthodox Christians.

This week, we are once again joined by The Prudentialist here on Counterflow. He is an Orthodox Christian, writer, YouTuber, and fisherman. We are talking about something that he has coined, "the great divorce from history". From our guest: A divorce from history, a consequence of the orgiastic high that has come from Liberalism's alleged victories from the Cold War and the Second World War has left many smugly championing the cultural and economic victories while quietly ignoring the visceral transformations of their homes. To say that the past was evil, or that each step leftward was a step towards some concept of fully automated luxury gay space communism, then we are witnessing the continued suicide of the West in real time, just as Burnham remarked sixty years ago. We get into how this has happened and where we might be headed.

This is Part 2 of my conversation with Clark Carlton using his book "The Faith" as a guide for our discussion on the many nuances and aspects of the Orthodox Christian Faith. There are a ton of misconceptions and misunderstandings about Christianity in general but even more so with Orthodox Christianity. I want these two episodes to be almost like a catechetical guide into Orthodoxy. We get into apostolic succession, spiritual depth, repentance, pride, humility, Catholicism, Protestantism, and so much more.

Auron MacIntyre is back with us this week to discuss the beautiful losers we call conservatives. The left cares about power and control, but the right has tried to put principle and ideology ahead of actually gaining and using power. This has put conservatives on the losing side of politics for more than a century. Now, leftism is the default setting for society, all of the country's institutions, corporations, and power structures. It's time for conservatives to stop letting their ideology get in the way of gaining power and defeating the left. Auron lays it all out in this excellent discussion.
