Description

E.M. Burlingame's New Nobility revives the ancient virtues of true nobility—virtue, competence, honor, commitment, and organic hierarchy—for the modern age of chaos and collapse.

Hosted by E.M. Burlingame (蒲 奕 言)—father, author of Starving for Leadership, The Way of the Team, The Eternal War, Modern Knight's Guidebook, As Rome Burns, and The Art of Being a Man; former U.S. Army Green Beret (1st and 20th Special Forces Groups); computational engineer; medical researcher; fintech/intelligence analyst; Silicon Valley entrepreneur; founder of the Honos Foundation and Emerio Group; and Senior Research Fellow at the National Foundation for Integrative Medicine—this podcast draws directly from his life’s work in stability operations, counterterrorism, strategic studies, venture capital, signal processing, and ongoing doctoral research in Interdisciplinary Engineering with applications in Neuroscience.

Each episode explores thermodynamic nobility, organic aristocracy versus imposed “mob state” power structures (with Praetorian Guard parallels in America), the Eternal War against cultural entropy, the Art of Being a Man and Woman, individual sovereignty, sanity as a sacred resource, and the practical wisdom required to build resilient families, communities, and legacies that endure across generations. From Green Beret lessons in village-level stability and elite family security to historical cycles (Rome, feudal models), critiques of bureaucratic feudalism, and calls for modern knights and warrior princes to step forward, the show charts a return to purposeful, deed-based nobility—not by birth, but by deeds.

Whether you seek leadership forged in fire, civilizational renewal, or the unyielding commitment to defend the commons, E.M. Burlingame's New Nobility equips you with the ancient ways brought forward for today’s warriors. Join the New Nobility. Rise. Build. Endure.
