Welcome to a transformative moment for the Theory to Action podcast! After four dedicated years of exploring conservative books and wisdom, we're expanding our horizons with a new weekly format that complements our traditional book-focused episodes.

This inaugural Weekend Show establishes a historical foundation by ranking America's five most significant presidential scandals. From the infamous Watergate break-in that forced Nixon's resignation to the secret oil reserve leases of Teapot Dome, the Clinton-Lewinsky affair, railroad corruption during Grant's administration, and the Whiskey Ring tax evasion scheme—each scandal reveals profound lessons about power, accountability, and the fragility of democratic institutions.

Having established this historical baseline, we turn our attention to troubling contemporary revelations. Recently declassified information points to what could potentially become the most consequential political scandal in American history—a nine-year presidential coup attempt with connections to the highest levels of government. Drawing from authors like Lee Smith and Greg Jarrett who documented these developments in real-time, we promise future episodes that will methodically examine the evidence and implications.

The show also highlights notable new conservative literature, including Mark Levin's latest exploration of power dynamics and Drago Dazarian's powerful journey from political prisoner to Navy SEAL. We close with wisdom from Joshua Metcalf's "Chop Wood, Carry Water," a book currently being studied by the Ohio State Buckeyes football team, on embracing the essential processes that lead to greatness.

Our mission remains unchanged: to distill timeless wisdom from great conservative books and translate it into immediate action for a flourishing life. Now, with our expanded format, we'll cover more ground while maintaining the depth you've come to expect. Whether you're interested in politics, Catholicism, liberty, or practical wisdom for everyday living, the Theory to Action podcast is your trusted companion on the journey toward a more meaningful existence.
