Ben Domenech is a conservative writer, publisher, and broadcaster who co-founded The Federalist in 2013 and now serves as opinion editor of The Daily Wire. A teenage prodigy who wrote a National Review Online column before he could legally drink, he became the youngest political appointee in the George W. Bush administration, then built a career as one of the most prolific and combative voices on the American right. He is a Fox News contributor, hosts The Big Ben Show podcast, publishes the insider newsletter The Transom, and is married to TV personality Meghan McCain.
Charlie Sykes spent 23 years as one of Wisconsin's most influential conservative talk-radio voices, then walked away and turned his fire on his own movement. He co-founded The Bulwark, became a fixture of the Never Trump opposition, and now writes the Substack newsletter and hosts the podcast 'To the Contrary.' Author of nine books and an MSNBC contributor, he is a rare media figure who publicly reckoned with the part talk radio played in remaking the American right.
Jonah Goldberg is a conservative journalist, author, and podcaster who co-founded The Dispatch in 2019 after a 21-year run at National Review, where he launched National Review Online. He hosts the long-running interview podcast The Remnant, writes the twice-weekly G-File newsletter, holds the Asness Chair in Applied Liberty at the American Enterprise Institute, and writes a syndicated column. The author of three books including the No. 1 New York Times bestseller Liberal Fascism, he has become one of the most prominent 'ideologically grounded but politically homeless' voices on the American right, having walked away from Fox News in protest in 2021.
