In this compelling episode, Raymond Arroyo welcomes Michael Knowles—Daily Wire host, actor, and author—for a wide-ranging conversation on art, belief, and the battle for truth in modern culture. From his early training at the Stella Adler Conservatory to his new documentary The Pope and the Führer, Knowles traces the surprising journey that led him from the stage to political media—and back to faith.

Together they explore how imagination and virtue shape civilization, what his research reveals about Pius XII’s wartime heroism, and why moral clarity matters more than ever in an age of noise, propaganda, and moral drift. Raymond and Michael also examine the rise of antisemitism online, the loss of manners and meaning in public life, and how the rediscovery of faith and beauty might restore our culture.

Watch now for a conversation that blends history, faith, and performance—reminding us that ideas still have consequences, and stories still have power.
