  • Summary

  • We are now standing on the precipice of history. Powerful political and cultural forces are seeking to upend western liberal democracies and the freedoms we so often take for granted. Few people understand what’s at stake quite like Ayaan Hirsi Ali.


    After a dramatic escape from a strict Islamic upbringing in Somalia, she found refuge in the Netherlands where she became an elected member of the Dutch Parliament. Now a celebrated author and activist, Ayaan has devoted her life to defending western values against threats from Islamic fundamentalism and more recently, far left progressive ideology.


    Part of her Courage.Media platform, The Ayaan Hirsi Ali podcast explores how anti-western, anti-liberal movements are taking root in our politics, our schools, and our communities. On this podcast, Ayaan invites a variety of world-renowned guests to discuss these issues in great depth with her, and we hope you enjoy listening.

    “Everything we’ve seen on college campuses has infiltrated all the sciences now”


    In this episode, Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Michael Shermer delve into the importance of scepticism and transparency. They discuss Michael’s own work in this field, both as prolific science writer and publisher of Skeptic Magazine.

    Exposing the dark side of ESG | Desiree Fixler | EP07
    Jan 22 2025

    Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Desiree Fixler, the famous ESG whistle-blower, discuss the ways in which this slippery term has been used to undermine free-market Capitalism. During her time as the Chief Sustainability Officer at DWS, a key subsidiary of Deutsche Bank, Desiree uncovered that ESG was being used to deliberately mislead customers into purchasing products with unwarranted premiums. With Ayaan, they discuss the nefarious nature of this ideology, and how the corporate embrace of it has given rise to the implementation of devastating ‘Net Zero’ policies across the West.
