Victor Davis Hanson Expands His Daily Signal Partnership

When Victor Davis Hanson joined The Daily Signal as a senior contributor in January, we knew instantly that we were creating something special. 

Hanson’s daily five-minute videos, concise commentaries on the day’s news, have amassed nearly 50 million views since then—a remarkable number in today’s crowded media landscape. Each day, hundreds of thousands of people consume his content. 

You’ve told us you want more Hanson, which is why we’re thrilled to announce a significant expansion of our relationship. 

Hanson’s exceptional reach created an exceptional opportunity. So, when he approached us recently about expanding our partnership, we jumped at the opportunity. 

Today, we’re announcing that Hanson’s popular long-form podcast is now produced and distributed by The Daily Signal. For those who have been Hanson fans for years, you’ll find the show under a new name, “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” wherever you prefer to watch or listen. (Links to subscribe are below.) 

Hanson’s show already ranks high in the podcast charts, and we’re excited to work with him to grow his reach even more. 

“I got to know The Daily Signal when I was asked to do these 5-to-7-minute daily videos I’ve done now for nine months, and it’s been such a pleasure,” Hanson said. “When I visited The Daily Signal, they’re all young, they’re all energetic, they’re all idealistic, they’re all professional.”

He added, “I thought given that experience with The Daily Signal, why not just take all four of our weekly podcasts, and then replicate it. That’s what we’re doing, and I think we’re going to have the same wonderful result.”

Here’s How to Subscribe 

If you’re not familiar with Hanson’s show, we hope you’ll subscribe to be notified when each new episode is released. You’ll receive Hanson’s distinctive voice and intelligent analysis in an hour-long format four times per week. 

Hanson’s long-form show pairs him with two co-hosts: Jack Fowler and Sami Winc. Together, they tackle the week’s most consequential stories—including breaking news, political developments, or cultural trends—with intellectual seriousness. Episodes drop Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday each week. 

You can subscribe to “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” on your preferred platform or directly through The Daily Signal. The next episode of his show will be release tomorrow.

Plus, Hanson will continue to produce his daily short videos that our audience has come to enjoy. Those can be found on our Facebook, Rumble, X, and YouTube channels, our daily email newsletter, along with the full transcripts on our website. 

What Makes Hanson So Popular?  

We’ve known for years that our Daily Signal audience appreciates his clarity, historical context, and honest analysis. In a world cluttered with hot takes and sensationalism, he offers something increasingly rare, grounded in the truth. 

For those unfamiliar with Hanson’s work, he’s the Martin and Illie Anderson senior fellow in residence in classics and military history at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. He holds a Ph.D. in classics from Stanford and has authored 26 books—including New York Times bestsellers like “The Case for Trump,” “The Dying Citizen,” and most recently, “The End of Everything.” 

He’s received the National Humanities Medal, the Bradley Prize, and numerous other honors. More importantly, Hanson brings a historian’s knowledge and a classicist’s perspective to contemporary debates about politics, culture, and America’s future. 

His website, The Blade of Perseus, offers a variety of his best material, including subscription-only content. 

Why Expand This Partnership Now?  

The numbers tell part of the story. Hanson’s daily videos have put us on track to reach one million YouTube subscribers by the end of 2025—a remarkable trajectory from our starting point earlier this year. That growth has benefited other Daily Signal productions, most especially “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” our nightly show featuring talented host Tony Kinnett.

But it’s about more than metrics. It’s about mission. 

The Daily Signal exists to provide trustworthy analysis at a moment when legacy media credibility is eroding. We believe our audience hungers for truth-telling from people with genuine expertise and intellectual integrity. Hanson embodies both. His work helps equips you to think clearly about the challenges facing our communities, institutions, and our nation—and to engage meaningfully in the conversations that will shape America’s future. 

By deepening our partnership with Hanson, we’re strengthening our commitment to those goals. We hope you’ll tell us how we’re doing and how to be even more effective. 

And because we depend on the generous support of people like you, we’d also ask if you would consider making a monthly donation to expand our work with Hanson. You can make a tax-deductible monthly gift on our donation page today to help us bring the truth to millions of Americans through this special partnership with Hanson.
