The Rise of the Gen-Z Conservative
I honestly don’t listen to many mainstream conservative shows anymore. There’s a few that I still follow–like Tucker Carlson, Charlie Kirk, Matt Walsh to name a few. But, I’ve found that younger conservative voices tend to lean more paleo-conservative/socially conservative than your typical Boomer/Gen X conservative political commentator
Consequently, I decided to share some of my favorite Gen-Z conservative content creators on YouTube. This post will list my Top 7 Gen-Z conservative YouTubers at this time.
Most of these guys are fairly new to YouTube, but their content is still top-notch stuff. To my knowledge, John Doyle is the only guy on this list that I’ve watched for more than a year now. So, I’m also new to their content. Nevertheless, I wanted to shout-out the fantastic work these guys are doing!
I also included my favorite video from each of the YouTube channels. Definitely watch those videos to get a feel for these epic YouTube channels.
Now, let’s get started …
The Countdown
1. The KGB Show
Y’all probably remember, but the KGB Show recently came to TCU for a discussion panel on “Big Tech Censorship”.
The hosts of the KGB Show–Kaden, Gabe, & Blake–started off their political careers making conservative Tik Toks. Once they gained massive followings on the conservative Tik Tok account the Republican Hype House, our tech overlords decided to ban that account.
So, now Kaden, Gabe, and Blake have transitioned to making weekly (now twice a week) YouTube videos on their channel The KGB Show. Definitely check it out their content, and subscribe to the channel!
I included below my favorite video from The KGB Show to-date. These guys and their YouTube channel have a bright future indeed! In fact, you’ll probably see them doing more speaking events in the future, so keep an eye out for that on their Instagram: @thekgbshow
2. Vince Dao
“The sun never sets on Vince Dao Nationalism”!
Vince Dao is another up-and-coming Gen Z conservative content creator. Currently, Vince has amassed a following of over 10 thousand subscribers on his YouTube channel–where he regularly does livestreams on pertinent political topics and ideas.
Vince also helped found the American Populist Union (APU) earlier this year. That’s how I first heard about Vince Dao.
The APU is a new national conservative/paleoconservative organization. The org is more geared toward primarily male Gen-Z social conservatives/paleocons (like myself).
I attended to the inaugural American Populist Summit event back in July 2021–as it was hosted one of the hotels located near Turning Point USA’s Student Action Summit (SAS 2021). So, I started watching Vince’s content after going to this event.
Cameraman Badan himself. The King of the Fitness Industry!
But seriously, Nathaniel Abbot (a.ka. Cameraman Badan) is one of the most intriguing Gen-Z Conservative YouTubers. Most of his videos are not inherently partisan/political. Instead, Badan focuses on
Also, he plays the ukele at the end of most of his videos. So, that alone makes his videos worthwhile.
In the video below, Badan cuts through the pro-drug narratives and imagery that surround modern American culture. Highly encourage anyone addicted to any illicit substance (e.g. alcohol, porn, drugs, the Internet) to watch his videos.
4. John Doyle
Ladies and gentleman. John Doyle. I thought about not including him on the list since he doesn’t post anymore (that’s a joke haha). We call it “we do a little bit of trolling”.
But in all seriousness, John Doyle is probably my favorite YouTuber period. When he finally gets around to posting, I always make sure to watch his videos. I can say with certainty that I’ve watched all of his videos in 2021 (though there haven’t been that many this year to be fair).
John’s videos are starting to make an impact on the broader American culture. In just three years, John’s YouTube show Heckoffcommie has garnered over 320 thousand subscribers and 26 million views. Quite the feat.
John’s political commentary and cultural analysis (from a conservative perspective) never misses. His videos don’t recycle common conservative talking points about socialism, limited government, and free speech. By no means. Instead, he correctly diagnoses the actual problems inherent in American society and what we–as young Gen-Z conservatives–can do to restore the Traditional American society.
Let me introduce you to the “CEO of Gatekeeping Conservatism,” “the Founder of George Floyd Conservatism,” “the King of Delayed Gratification’, and “Hater of the Anti-Christ!” … Mr. John Doyle!!!
Red Eagle Politics (REP) has become my go-to YouTube channel when it comes to electoral politics and political trends. REP’s YouTube channel is only about two years old, but it’s amassed a following of 115 thousand subscribers and 15 million views to-date.
REP has done such fantastic live-streams on election nights the last two years too. His stream for the 2020 presidential election was watched by almost 600 thousand viewers. One big reason for his success is that he absolutely understands the trends for upcoming elections. His analysis election analysis is way better than anything you’d find on a mainstream media outlet
REP also gives solid commentary on current political issues. He recently posted some videos about the Kyle Rittenhouse trial and the potential overturning of Roe v. Wade. The video below is a recent one he did about how the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade would have little effect on the 2022 midterm elections.
6. Kai Clips
Let me just say that Kai is one the biggest chads I have ever met hands-down.
Kai is a conservative streamer and debater–whose passion it is to defend America 1st principles/ideas. Being very much a social conservative. Kai has also waged war on “booby conservatism”. For those unfamiliar with the term, it refers to “conservative” ladies who claim to be political conservatives but live non-conservative lives (i.e. posting provocative pics on Instagram, living a hedonistic lifestyle, etc).
Kai just started a new livestream show on YouTube/Cozy.tv called Out of Touch with Kai Clips. His show streams live during the week-nights, so definitely check that out too. I attached episode 1 of his stream below this paragraph.
This YouTube channel is one of the newer ones I’ve started watching, but the content quality is really solid here.
The Yankee Perspective is more of a nationalist-populist YouTube channel that highlights the importance of the American family and the American people. His channel also calls out the establishment Republicans/RINOs who hold back the enacting of an America 1st-platform in the conservative movement/Republican party.
The video below is a long-form video essay from the Yankee Perspective. The video discusses various government policies that can restore the traditional American family back to its former glory.
