532: The Beginning of the End of Woke? | Andrew Doyle, Free Speech, and the Cultural Shift

In this episode of Beer and Conversation with Pigweed and Crowhill, we crack open an Amber Castle from Silver Branch Brewing and dig into Andrew Doyle’s hard-hitting new book The End of Woke: How the Culture War Went Too Far and What to Expect from the Counter‑Revolution.

What we cover:

* Why 15 years of “woke” may have peaked — from DEI backlash to Trump’s political re‑entry
* Woke vs. Liberalism—Doyle argues woke isn’t progressive—it’s authoritarian masquerading as virtue
* The rise of a counter-revolution: Are we replacing one tyranny with another? Doyle warns anti‑woke leaders can slip into censorship
* Where do we go from here? Doyle’s rallying call for true liberalism—free speech, rational debate, and defending individual liberty.

Expect sharp insight, brutal honesty, animated debate… and some beer drinking. 🍻

✏️ Why this matters:
Doyle’s book examines not only the excesses of the woke era, but also how the reaction may have slipped into its own version of illiberalism. He challenges listeners to ask: in fighting a culture war, are we losing our freedom—again?
