In this episode, we welcome Josh Lewis, a CPA from Tulsa and former candidate for City Auditor. With more than a decade of experience auditing governments, Josh brings a practical, grounded perspective to politics and public life.
A graduate of College of the Ozarks—famously known as “Hard Work U”—Josh majored in accounting with a minor in Speech Communications, serving as president of the College Republicans. Inspired by thinkers like Edmund Burke, Russell Kirk, William F. Buckley, and Thomas Sowell, he is deeply committed to exploring how conservatism can not only survive but thrive in the 21st century.
Josh shares how the conservative worldview offers solutions to challenges facing Millennials and the nation as a whole—revitalizing diverse subcultures, restoring civil society and institutions that give life meaning, and balancing liberty with order in both the individual and the community.
Together, we dive into classical conservatism, the radicalization of both political parties, and what it might take to move forward as a nation.
