The Karol Markowicz Show: Brilyn Hollyhand on Faith, Free Speech, Campus Politics & Make America Talk Again

About this episode

Brilyn Hollyhand discusses his journey as a young conservative activist and the importance of dialogue in America.

What motivates a 19-year-old conservative activist to travel the country debating politics on college campuses despite security threats and intense opposition? On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol sits down with rising political commentator Brilyn Hollyhand, author of the upcoming book Make America Talk Again. Brilyn shares how a fourth-grade mock election sparked his passion for politics, how an early interview with Charlie Kirk shaped his career, and why he believes America’s biggest problem isn't that people talk too much—it's that they no longer talk to each other.
