In this provocative episode of Psychobabble, Joe Nucci sits down with Anthony Rispo—Columbia graduate, writer, and rising content creator—to unpack his intellectual evolution from progressive activism to political heterodoxy.

  • Left vs. right-wing authoritarianism

  • Identity, victimhood, and performative activism
