American Maxim
Hosted by The Ricochet Audio Network · EN
Max does not care what people in D.C. and New York think. He lives in a house in New Hampshire built when George Washington was president. Max brings an outsider’s perspective to national politics and culture and an insider’s view on the battleground of primaries, elections, and cultural conflicts in the Granite State. Unlike some “conservative” podcasters, Max actually voted (twice) for the most conservative president of our lifetime, Donald Trump, and looks forward to doing so a third time.

Transcribe →It’s the Deja Flu All Over Again
Nov 29, 202100:30:42Tap to summarizeThere’s another COVID variant that is really, really scary, says the media. (Just in time for the Christmas season.) Also the MAGA posse is taking over in New Hampshire, which is great news, but gives the sads to the Left, meaning the media. And then, since it’s a Monday tradition here we end with a reading from the Psalms. Support the American Maxim Podcast at https://subscribestar.com/americanmaxim. Human history is full of the stories of peasants, subjects, and tribes. Yet the concept of the “citizen” is historically rare—and was among America’s most valued ideals for over two centuries. But without shock treatment, warns historian Victor Davis Hanson, American citizenship as we have known it may soon vanish. In The Dying Citizen, Hanson outlines the historical forces that led to this crisis. The evisceration of the middle class over the last fifty years has made many Americans dependent on the federal government. Open borders have undermined the idea of allegiance to a particular place. Identity politics have eradicated our collective civic sense of self. And a top-heavy administrative state has endangered personal liberty, along with formal efforts to weaken the Constitution. <img loading="lazy" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1089695" src="https://cdn.ricochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/operation-free-bird-114x150.png" alt="" width="114" height="150" srcset="https://cdn.ricochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/operation-free-bird-114x150.png 114w, https://cdn.ricochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/operation-free-bird-227x300.png 227w, https://cdn.ricochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/operation-free-bird-454x600.png 454w, https://cdn.ricochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11...
Transcribe →How Max Narrowly Avoided Becoming “Transgender” at Age 5
Nov 24, 202100:19:44Tap to summarizeThanksgiving preparations have already begun at the Ledoux household, prompting Max to remember back to Thanksgiving 1987 when his sister got to wear a special dress for dinner at Grandma’s and he didn’t. He asked his Mama if he could wear a dress, too, and she said no. The end. That’s the story. That’s how close Max got to being chemically castrated because he was five and jealous that his sister got new clothes and he had to wear a stupid sweater vest, not knowing anything whatsoever about the differences between boys clothes and girls clothes because he was frickin’ 5 years old. Seriously, what is wrong with parents these days? Your son is not transgender, you’re just psychologically abusing him. Happy Thanksgiving!

Transcribe →The Woke Brigade Ruins Everything
Nov 23, 202100:23:51Tap to summarizeAmazon Prime’s new TV series The Wheel of Time is irritatingly woke, Kevin McCarthy is still a loser (unlike John Adams), and BLM stands for “Burn, Loot, Murder.” Support the American Maxim Podcast: https://subscribestar.com/americanmaxim. In John Adams, the epic biography, David McCullough unfolds the adventurous life journey of John Adams, the brilliant, fiercely independent, often irascible, always honest Yankee patriot who spared nothing in his zeal for the American Revolution; who rose to become the second president of the United States and saved the country from blundering into an unnecessary war; who was learned beyond all but a few and regarded by some as “out of his senses”; and whose marriage to the wise and valiant Abigail Adams is one of the moving love stories in American history. This is history on a grand scale—a book about politics and war and social issues, but also about human nature, love, religious faith, virtue, ambition, friendship, and betrayal, and the far-reaching consequences of noble ideas. Above all, John Adams is an enthralling, often surprising story of one of the most important and fascinating Americans who ever lived. Get your copy today: ht...
Transcribe →Kevin McCarthy Is a Loser
Nov 22, 202100:30:11Tap to summarizeKevin McCarthy spoke for 8 and a half hours on Thursday night, wow. Who cares? What did he accomplish? Nothing. American Maxim’s Alaska correspondent Vince Guerra joins the podcast for the very first time, to share some information about the January 6 political prisoners being held in Washington, DC. Also, Kamala Harris is the first female president of the United States because Joe Biden needed something stuck up his butt. And since it’s Monday, and to cleanse that image from your mind, Max reads Psalm 5. Vince Guerra can be found at https://vinceguerra.com.

Transcribe →Democrats Have No Sense of Humor, “Fauci” Should Be an Insult
Nov 19, 202100:25:37Tap to summarizeJust in time for Thanksgiving next week, the media is ramping up the coronavirus fear. OMG COVID cases are rising! Except they’re probably not. Here in New Hampshire, a committee in the house of representatives just approved a bill that would ban vaccine mandates. That’s good! Except it has no enforcement mechanism and the RINO governor, Chris Sununu, will probably veto it. Meanwhile Democrats have no sense of humor and are power mad (what’s new), so they censured Paul Gosar over anime. (Watch the video here.)

Transcribe →Old, Rickety Biden Speaks on Old Rickety Bridge in New Hampshire
Nov 18, 202100:25:29Tap to summarizeJoe Biden tottered into New Hampshire the other day to speak from an old, small, rickety bridge in a perfect metaphor for his fraudulent presidency. Speaking of Biden’s frailty, when’s Communist China going to invade Taiwan? A must-read riveting account of America’s plague year from one of the top Trump advisors who first sounded the China pandemic alarm, exposed Dr. Fauci’s destructive actions and laid bare the facts about the 2020 presidential election. In Trump Time is a compelling page turner of a book that tells the story of America 2020 from inside the White House.

Transcribe →Liz Cheney Is Not a Republican, She Is a Tool for Nancy Pelosi
Nov 17, 202100:27:40Tap to summarizeThe Wyoming GOP is basically excommunicating Liz Cheney. Good for them! Liz Cheney has ignored her own voters, her constituents. She doesn’t represent the voters. She’s gone off the deep end with her hatred of Trump. Some of it must be personal, because Trump criticized her father. But now she’s cozying up with the Democrats, Nancy Pelosi and the others in the House, they all called Dick Cheney, you know, Darth Vader, you know, said he was a war criminal, all that stuff. Liz Cheney is now helping the Democrats to try to destroy the Republican Party. Because that’s what this bogus January 6 commission is for. January 6 was not a national crisis. They’re using it as an excuse to go after political opponents, including regular people who voted for Donald Trump. Also, let’s talk about how much Joe Biden sucks. His job approval is -10.8 in the Real Clear Politics average of polls. The ABC/Washington post poll from November 10 had him at negative 19. 38% approval to 57% disapprove. In the Washington Post ABC News poll! Human history is full of the stories of peasants, subjects, and tribes.
