Riffs on the Right with Benjamin Teitelbaum

Benjamin Teitelbaum is an author and professor of musicology and international affairs at CU Boulder. His interests include music, the radical right and geopolitics, reactionary ideology and aesthetics, political theology, and Scandinavian folklore. He is author of War for Eternity: The Return of Traditionalism and the Rise of the Populist Right (Penguin, 2020) and Lions of the North: Sounds of the New Nordic Radical Nationalism (Oxford, 2017). His next book, "Limitless" is forthcoming from Verso. Benjamin and I talk White Nationalist reggae, Julia Kristeva, Swedish folk instruments, Steve Bannon’s religiosity, the la-la-la-la-la of Death in June, and the inherent political leftism of language itself.
