Noah Rothman argues that the progressive left is closer in similarity to 16th century Puritans than the free-spirited, leftist hippies of the 1960s. By judging a person's moral character based on their clothes, Netflix queue, favorite foods, and the sports they watch, they've managed to suck the fun out of everything. Noah shows us how we can fight back against these "New Puritans," and ultimately, how we can live more meaningful and enjoyable lives by rejecting their oppressive judgments of moral character. Noah Rothman is the associate editor of Commentary Magazine and the author of The Rise of the New Puritans: Fighting Back Against Progressives' War on Fun. Follow him on Twitter at @NoahCRothman.

Elon Musk is building the rockets that will send the next generation of astronauts to Mars, but they won't stand a chance of surviving the journey if not for the research being done by scientists like Dorit Donoviel, Ph.D. Dorit joined us to talk about inventing new ways to keep humans alive and healthy on multi-year missions into deep space. Dorit Donoviel is the Executive Director of NASA's Translational Research Institute for Space Health and Professor of Space Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine.

Far-left activists hold influence over the White House, Congress, the media, corporations, and our educational institutions. But the one institution that remains outside of their control - the Supreme Court - is the one stopping them from sabotaging the Constitution.
