Jeremy Boreing: Why Conservatives Keep Missing What's Next
Jeremy Boreing on why conservatives keep missing the future — and what he's building next after The Daily Wire.
In this conversation, Greg Laurie sits down with Jeremy Boreing, co-founder of The Daily Wire, to talk about creativity, failure, faith, and the next generational shift already underway.
What you'll hear:
- The night reading Galatians in a Pizza Hut parking lot changed everything
- Why Jeremy told Michael Knowles to hold his dreams loosely
- The billion-dollar lesson from Jeremy's exit from The Daily Wire
- How conservatives keep falling into a "fail, complain, fundraise" cycle
- Why AI is the next social media moment — and what happens if Christians sit it out
- The failure of Gen X and Boomers to hand the next generation better choices
- How to answer nihilism, antisemitism, and despair with actual creation
Jeremy makes the case that dominion isn't about reacting to culture — it's about building something worth choosing. Greg presses him on what that looks like for the gospel in an AI age.
