More and more young people today suffer from anxiety, depression, or loneliness. But it turns out this isn’t a new problem. Sixteen hundred years ago, a restless university student named Augustine suffered the same maladies. This young man, who would become one of history’s most famous philosophers, found a solution. It still works today. Owen Anderson, Arizona State professor of philosophy and religious studies, tells the story. 🔔 Follow 5 Minute Videos so you never miss an episode. ▶️ Watch more episodes of 5-Minute Videos at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://l.prageru.com/4lCX76A⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ Did you enjoy this episode?

The West is in a war for its survival, but it's not the war most people think. It’s an existential conflict, as Ben Shapiro describes it, between lions and scavengers. The scavengers have the advantage. They have figured out how to use the lions’ virtues against them. So how do the lions fight back, and win? ▶️ Watch more episodes of 5-Minute Videos at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://l.prageru.com/4lCX76A⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ Did you enjoy this episode?

When we think of the American Revolution, we think of the North: Lexington and Concord, Washington crossing the Delaware, the winter at Valley Forge. But it was in the South—in the swamps and backwoods of Georgia, the Carolinas, and Virginia—where the war was decided.

One of the most important battles of the American Revolution… wasn’t a battle at all. In the winter of 1777, George Washington’s army teetered on the brink of collapse.

Empathy — the ability to understand and share the feelings of another — is a noble virtue. But empathy can also lead us astray. In fact, it can be fatal. Gad Saad, a scholar at the Declaration of Independence Center for the Study of American Freedom at the University of Mississippi, warns how misdirected empathy endangers not just well-intentioned individuals but Western Civilization itself. Others have made the ultimate sacrifice so that you could be free. Remember them—today, and always.  Today, on Memorial Day, watch this moving tribute, written and narrated by former Navy SEAL and author Jocko Willink 👉 https://l.prageru.com/42Lz9h7 ▶️ Watch more episodes of 5-Minute Videos at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://l.prageru.com/4lCX76A⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ Did you enjoy this episode?
