With the 10-year anniversary of The Daily Wire coming up, it’s a good time for reflection and celebration for all we’ve accomplished. Some of the company’s proudest moments came in the form of product launches, or more specifically, product offering alternatives for customers who were fed up with supporting companies who hated them.
We took a giant gamble, and so far, it’s been working beautifully. 
It started with a razor.
Back in 2021, Harry’s Razors decided Daily Wire audiences weren’t the kind of customers they wanted anymore. After years of advertising on our shows, Harry’s abruptly pulled the plug over what they called a “values misalignment” after Michael Knowles shared “homophobic and transphobic content” on his show. 
All it took was one outraged leftist making some noise, and they snapped like…. well, like a cheap plastic razor.
Most companies would’ve grumbled and moved on. But that’s not The Daily Wire way of doing things. “Fine. I’ll start my own razor company,” Jeremy Boreing wrote on X at the time, and then, he did. In March 2022, Jeremy’s Razors was born, complete with what became known as “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&amp;v=s92UMJNjPIA&amp;t=1s">The Greatest Commercial Ever</a>.”
That ad went mega viral, racking up tens of millions of views. Within days, tens of thousands of Americans subscribed. Within a year, Jeremy’s Razors had over 100,000 active members, shipping grooming kits, aftershave, and even expanding into soaps and household goods. Fast-forward to today, the brand is celebrating milestones left and right, including:
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jeremys-ships-1-millionth-order-as-consumer-demand-for-non-woke-products-continues">One million orders</a> shipped</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">A <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/introducing-jeremys-2nd-gen-razors-same-mission-new-razor-0-wokeness">second-generation razor</a>, designed from the ground up in the U.S.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Retail expansion into Amazon and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/the-alternative-economy-is-winning-jeremys-razors-now-available-online-at-walmart">Walmart</a></li>

</ul>
This wasn’t just a protest. It was proof that conservatives weren’t just complaining about woke corporations. We were building alternatives, and they were working. If we could conquer the cutthroat personal care market, what came next?
That answer, of course, was chocolate.
In March 2023, Hershey’s rolled out a Women’s History Month campaign featuring a biological male as the face of its chocolate bar. Riding the momentum of the massive razor success and knowing conservatives were hungry for woke-free alternatives, Jeremy posted another announcement.
“Fine. I’ll do it. Introducing Jeremy’s Chocolate. We have two kinds: HeHim and SheHer. One of them has nuts. If you need me to tell you which one, keep buying Hershey’s. But if you know what a woman is and love chocolate, go to: <a href="http://ihatehersheys.com">ihatehersheys.com</a>,” his X post said.
What started as kind of a joke became another success. Within days, Jeremy’s Chocolate sold <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jeremys-chocolate-sells-half-a-million-chocolate-bars-within-days-of-launch">over half a million bars</a>, amounting to more than 35 tons of chocolate shipped nationwide.

The symbolism was irresistible: candy without the lectures, treats without corporate pandering. Once again, it wasn’t just a business move, it was a cultural statement. It was proof that conservatives aren’t willing to compromise their morals when they’re presented with high-quality alternatives. 
And once again, Daily Wire members were the ones who made it all happen.
That’s the common theme for all these company wins: none of this works without you. Members didn’t just buy razors and chocolate bars. They cast votes with their wallets, saying loud and clear, “We’ll support companies that respect us.”
Because of that support, Jeremy’s isn’t just a parody, it’s a force to be reckoned with. Razors, chocolate, cleaning supplies, hand soap… the catalog keeps growing, and we keep winning. What started as a cheeky stance against woke brands has turned into a serious market contender.
So we’re here to celebrate, and to say a heartfelt thank you to every member who shaved with a Jeremy’s blade, or unwrapped a Jeremy’s chocolate bar. By shopping here, you proved something bigger than the products themselves. You proved that the free market can still be free from woke madness. 
Thank you.

Decade Of Daily Wire: From Razors To Chocolate, The Winning Doesn’t Stop

In 10 years, The Daily Wire has put up some incredible wins, and over the next few weeks, we’re going to be looking back at 10 of our greatest victories — none of which could have happened without the support of our loyal members and fans. 
To begin, we’re going back to a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/loudoun-county-schools-tried-to-conceal-sexual-assault-against-daughter-in-bathroom-father-says">story</a> that shocked America — a story that only saw the light of day because The Daily Wire decided it needed to be told. 
In June of 2021, a Virginia man was arrested at a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/loudoun-county-schools-tried-to-conceal-sexual-assault-against-daughter-in-bathroom-father-says">Loudoun County</a>, Virginia, school board meeting after he and other attendees spoke out against a proposed transgender bathroom policy for students. Scott Smith became an example used by the Left to label parents who voiced concern about woke policies in schools as potential “domestic terrorists.” 
But Daily Wire investigative reporter Luke Rosiak discovered that there was much more to the story. 
“What people did not know is that weeks prior on May 28, Smith says, a boy allegedly wearing a skirt entered a girls’ bathroom at nearby Stone Bridge High School, where he sexually assaulted Smith’s ninth-grade daughter,” Rosiak reported. 
Smith was angry after the superintendent falsely stated that there had never been any sexual assaults in Loudoun’s bathrooms as part of a lecture dismissing parents’ concerns. As a result of LCPS’s deliberate effort to sweep that rape under the rug, including submitting falsified documentation to the state, the school board was able to pass the transgender policy that they wanted. Weeks later, the boy who raped Smith’s daughter in the bathroom was arrested for another sexual assault, after police said he forced a girl into an empty classroom, held her against her will, and touched her inappropriately. 
Without The Daily Wire’s coverage and the support of our readers, this story likely would have never been told, and Loudoun County Public Schools would have never faced widespread public scrutiny.

The Daily Wire article, which was published in October 2021, sent a shockwave throughout Virginia and the nation just weeks before a major Virginia gubernatorial election. The story became a rallying cry for parents demanding accountability and transparency from school boards, especially on the issue of transgenderism.
The Daily Wire investigation into Loudoun County Public Schools was a major reason that parental rights became a central issue in the 2021 Virginia election, with Republican Glenn Youngkin pulling off a surprise victory. The Daily Wire’s reporting didn’t just break a story — it helped shift the political landscape. 
As we celebrate this win, we’re reminded that The Daily Wire’s mission is about more than breaking news — it’s about challenging the Left’s obfuscation of reality and amplifying the stories and voices that need to be read and heard. And of course, that victory couldn’t have happened without your loyalty to The Daily Wire. With your continued support, we’ll keep fighting for the truth, no matter how inconvenient it may be.

Ten years ago, The Daily Wire burst onto the scene. With the support of its loyal members, it has become a leader in the conservative movement — reshaping American culture and politics.
To mark the 10th anniversary — and to thank the members who keep us fighting — Friendly Fire launches September 10 on DailyWire+. Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, and Andrew Klavan are back together on screen, delivering sharp social and political commentary — and the kind of fiery, unmoderated debates only they can spark.

A lot has changed since September 2015. Donald Trump was elected president (twice), a pandemic shook the nation, Democrats and Big Tech cracked down on the freedoms of conservatives, and gender ideology and DEI spread through schools, businesses, and government.
But common sense and conservative values kept fighting back. Shows from Shapiro, Walsh, Knowles, and Klavan helped conservatives stay engaged and politically potent. And millions of Americans who followed and subscribed to The Daily Wire helped us push back against the cultural decline accelerated by the Biden administration and its leftist allies.

The following is a portion of an edited transcript from a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/mrn-250824-member-exclusive?elementPosition=1&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+Show+Episodes+Carousel">Weekend Edition of Morning Wire</a> where Daily Wire Executive Editor John Bickley sat down with Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for Responsible Federal Budget.
* * *
JOHN: Joining us now is Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for Responsible Federal Budget. Maya, thanks so much for coming on. First, tell us, what exactly is the <a href="https://www.crfb.org/">Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget</a>?
MAYA: Thanks for having me. Other than a mouthful of a name, it&#8217;s a bipartisan nonprofit watchdog group. Basically, we&#8217;re very concerned about fiscal policy, meaning how big our debt and deficits are and we don&#8217;t have a political agenda at all. I&#8217;m a political independent. Our board and our staff are from across the political spectrum. But we are deeply concerned that our political environment now focuses on borrowing when we shouldn&#8217;t be because of the political benefits of not actually dealing with trade-offs. And that concern has been growing over time.
JOHN: I wanted to ask you exactly about that. You&#8217;ve been warning about borrowing. Why is the growing debt so dangerous for the U.S. economy? What specific ways will it actually impact Americans?
MAYA: I think that&#8217;s one of the biggest challenges about this whole issue. It&#8217;s really not something that feels directly related to us as individuals, but it&#8217;s directly related to everything we care about. The fiscal health of the country is really the underpinning of both our economic and our national security strength. So, if your debt is too high — and ours without question is — every warning sign that there is is blinking bright, bright red right now. But if your debt is too high, it actually means that the government borrows so much money, it squeezes out the investment possibility and the private sector. It slows growth and slows productivity, it pushes up inflation, pushes up interest rates, all sorts of things that slow economic growth, which translates into lower wages, lower standard of living, and less job security. Nothing good on the economic front. That&#8217;s one. 
Two, it means that our budget has huge pressure because interest payments start to absorb more and more of our resources. Whether you want huge tax cuts or huge growth in spending, we can fight about those things, but interest payments get the first claim on the dollar in the budget. Right now it&#8217;s our second largest item in the budget and the single fastest growing item. It also means that when we have national emergencies where you should be borrowing, it&#8217;s more difficult to do so. And it means that, if you&#8217;re trying to fight a recession or a pandemic or a national emergency, you may have high pressure on upward interest rates when you&#8217;re trying to borrow. Whereas, if your debt&#8217;s lower, that doesn&#8217;t happen. 
But it&#8217;s also expanded now where it&#8217;s not just an economic issue, it is a national security issue. We are borrowing from countries with whom we are not aligned. We are not able to make our own national security decisions just from a strategic and security perspective, we have to think about budget resources and you don&#8217;t want to be in that position. So it weakens our ability to respond to emergencies, take advantage of opportunities. But bottom line, we can do fewer things and we become poor as a nation.
And finally, for those people who worry about the next generation, it&#8217;s really, really [hosing] a generation that&#8217;s already facing so many challenges. They are facing a much more difficult, fast-paced, changing world and we have tied up their budget with interest payments and promises to seniors. They don&#8217;t have the fiscal flexibility to respond and they owe a whole lot of debt because of the borrowing we took on.

JOHN: Like you said, it&#8217;s insidious because you don&#8217;t feel a lot of the effects. There are a lot of things that we can&#8217;t do now, things that we could have done if we had more money available. And then, kicking the can down the road. We&#8217;re not feeling it now – but our kids will feel it, and their kids will feel it. Is there any progress on this in Washington? Anyone paying attention to this?
MAYA: Yes, it&#8217;s so discouraging, honestly, because the situation is getting worse. Our debt to GDP is getting worse. Our annual deficits are getting worse, and this is outside of emergencies. And, frankly, our political environment and willingness to talk about this is much, much worse. We&#8217;re so polarized. You have both parties basically fighting with each other by giving away more things. &#8220;I&#8217;ll give you tax cuts, no taxes on this.&#8221; &#8220;Well, I&#8217;ll give you bigger tax cuts, and I&#8217;ll increase the spending.&#8221; &#8220;I&#8217;ll also increase the spending.&#8221; It used to be that you thought of Republicans as wanting tax cuts and Democrats as wanting spending increases. It&#8217;s literally both now. So, they fight for these huge giveaways. 
So, no, the situation is frankly very troubling both from an economic, national security, but also a political perspective. And internally, because it&#8217;s frustrating to work on an issue where you know we&#8217;re not going to have the big debt deal that we really need to have this year, for instance, a lot of times the best we can do and sort of why we&#8217;re able to pat ourselves on the back for some work is when things would have been worse without the kind of fiscal pressure we put on. But it&#8217;s really frustrating to say, &#8220;Well, we borrowed a trillion dollars, but we might have borrowed a trillion and a half if it weren&#8217;t for our pushing against this issue.&#8221; We&#8217;ve got to do better than that. We&#8217;ve got to start actually turning the ship around and bringing the debt as a share of GDP trajectory down instead of continuing to grow it&#8230;

Jordan B. Peterson

The following is an edited excerpt from a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/mrn-250810-member-exclusive?elementPosition=3&amp;row=3&amp;rowHeadline=Morning+Wire&amp;rowType=Horizontal+Show+Episodes+Carousel">Morning Wire Weekend Edition interview</a> where Daily Wire Executive Editor John Bickley sat down with U.S. Navy retired Rear Admiral Mark Montgomery of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. They discussed his recent trip to Taiwan, where he had meetings with senior officials, including the president and senior military leadership. Here are five key takeaways. 

* * *
<h3>1. America Is Taiwan’s Primary Key Ally</h3>
First, they&#8217;re very appreciative of the United States. They understand the United States is their key ally and they make that very clear. No one else sells them weapons. No one else stands by them when they&#8217;re threatened by the Chinese. That doesn&#8217;t mean they don&#8217;t get some rhetorical support from the Australians or the Japanese on occasion or from European countries. But when it comes to ship movements, aircraft movements, it&#8217;s us. So number one, they get that.
<h3>2. Taiwan Will Increase Defense Spending — But Only Buys From America</h3>
Number two, Taiwan understands that we expect them to spend more on their defense. So they&#8217;re taking their defense spending from about 2.5% this year to 3% next year. Then, I think, they&#8217;ll go to 4% and eventually 5%. The irony is, to get the spending up that high, they can only buy the weapons from us. We&#8217;re the only country who sells to them.
<iframe style="width: 100%; max-width: 660px; overflow: hidden; border-radius: 10px;" src="https://embed.podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-threats-we-face-how-we-win/id1576594336?i=1000721366067" height="175" frameborder="0" sandbox="allow-forms allow-popups allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-storage-access-by-user-activation allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation"></iframe>
<h3>3. America’s Foreign Military Sales Program Is A “Dumpster Fire”</h3>
I say this gently, our foreign military sales program is a dumpster fire. As a result, it takes seven years to get them javelin missiles; eight years to get them stinger, man-portable air missiles. These should take two, three years. So, part of the problem is U.S. foreign military sales and delivery. But the Taiwanese are going to do everything they can to get themselves to three, four, and eventually 5% [Defense spending] by the end of the Trump administration. So that&#8217;s a big deal. 
<h3>4. It Could Take Nine Years For American Weapons To Arrive In Taiwan</h3>
Our foreign military sales overseas are hampered by a bureaucratic process inside the Department of Defense and Department of State. They have to work together. They don&#8217;t do a great job. It&#8217;s also hampered by how we integrate with the weapons providers, like Raytheon or Lockheed Martin, and the back and forth with the host country. For example, we recently did a harpoon sale with Taiwan, an anti-ship cruise missile that&#8217;s really critical to the fight. The sale was locked and first approved in 2020. And I&#8217;d say the delivery is going to be completed by 2029, if we&#8217;re lucky. That should take two, three, four years max — not nine years. So, for military sales, we have a backed up docket with Taiwan alone of $12 billion – it was $18 billion just four years ago. This is way too much. Countries cannot rely on us for timely delivery of weapons if it takes five, seven, or nine years to get weapons.

<h3>5. Taiwan Must Prepare For Non-Military Attacks</h3>
Taiwan really understands that, in addition to preparing for the most likely, most dangerous scenario of a cross-strait invasion, they also have to prepare for another most likely scenario  — China attacking their societal resilience, their financial systems, their communication systems, their energy systems with diplomatic, economic, cyber and influence operations, not military attacks. While the CCP would hope to break the societal resilience of Taiwan. Taiwan has to fight that. They need to make a lot of investments in that kind of domestic resilience. And then the United States can help as well.

Few idols measure up in real life and almost none of them exceed your expectations, but the one glaring exception to this rule is the Daily Wire co-founder himself. Shapiro is just as impressive in real life as he is breaking down news headlines on his daily show, and now you and a friend have a chance to find that out firsthand.
Along with the release of his new book, “<a href="http://www.dailywire.com/ben">Lions and Scavengers</a>,” on September 2, Shapiro is hosting a contest for loyal fans featuring a grand prize that comes with eternal bragging rights. One lucky winner and a friend will have a chance to visit Daily Wire headquarters in Nashville to experience a live taping of “The Ben Shapiro Show” and meet the man himself. 
Entering this contest couldn’t be simpler. All it takes is pre-ordering “Lions and Scavengers” and registering that purchase at <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/ben">this link</a>. Everyone who registers will also receive the first two chapters of the book immediately.
Even if you don’t win the top prize, the runner-up gifts are pretty sweet. Ten runners-up will score a limited edition hooded sweatshirt. And five lucky winners will receive something even rarer: a personal phone call from Ben himself.
The best news of all is that everyone who pre-orders “Lions and Scavengers” will receive the book itself, which cuts through the noise to ask a question that might just define the future of America: Will we rise as noble Lions, or pick at the scraps as destructive Scavengers?
The New York Times best-selling author doesn’t just present these as provocative metaphors. Instead, he holds a mirror up to the modern West and forces us to face reality. 
Lions are brave, principled, and willing to do the hard work of building and preserving civilization. Scavengers tear it down, feeding on resentment, envy, and complaints. It’s a high-stakes choice, and Shapiro doesn’t shy away from saying exactly where he thinks our country is headed if we don’t choose the right path. 
With his trademark “facts don’t care about your feelings” clarity and unapologetic willingness to buck the status quo, Shapiro makes the case that inequality in a free society isn’t a sign of oppression, but is rather the natural result of differences in talent and work ethic. And while Scavengers complain, Lions try harder.
This isn’t just a book drop – it’s a moment to decide which side of the battle you’re on. The Lions are prowling. The Scavengers are circling. Where do you fall?

The remarkable story of mixed martial artist Joe Pyfer hit the screens of DailyWire+ members on Friday, diving into the rise of one of the most daunting fighters in UFC history. 
“Journey to the UFC” follows the man who rose from a harrowing past and confronts shattering obstacles in his quest to fight in the UFC. In the DailyWire+ documentary, people will watch how Pyfer was guided by mentors who saw his potential as Pyfer faces his opponents, along with the personal demons and life-changing setbacks that came along the way. 
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/videos/journey-to-the-ufc-joe-pyfer">WATCH ‘JOURNEY TO THE UFC’ ON DAILYWIRE+</a>
Pyfer, whose longtime dream was to make it into the UFC, got his chance after making his way onto “Dana White’s Contender Series” in 2020, but he lost his fight against Dustin Stoltzfus in a technical knockout after he broke his elbow. Two years later, Pyfer got another shot at the “Contender Series” and the UFC. 
“Going into the second one, I had to battle depression. I would say that was my last stint of being a victim because I had struggled with a little bit of suicide problems, things like that. And I think I just was unappreciative of the journey that I was on,” Pyfer said in an interview with Morning Wire. 
“And I think that&#8217;s where you can become a victim. You can start to feel sorry for yourself. Things like that,” he added. “I couldn&#8217;t see the light at the end of the tunnel. They told me when I first broke my elbow that I was done fighting. I&#8217;d never fight again, because if I throw a punch, the impact could literally dislocate my elbow.” 
In his journey, Pyfer dealt with homelessness, a toxic relationship with his father, and numerous injuries. But he never gave up on his UFC dream. 
“I’ve taken a lot of pain, I’ve had a lot of hurt, I’ve had a lot of depression, I’ve taken a lot of abuse, I’ve had a lot of doubts,” Pyfer says in the documentary. “But one thing has always stood true and that is I’m going to show that I’m somebody that never gave up.”

Isabel Brown, Gen Z firebrand and popular content creator, is bringing her unique blend of humor and cultural commentary to The Daily Wire.
Starting this fall, <a href="https://www.theconservateur.com/features/isabel-brown-launches-new-show-with-the-daily-wire">Brown will host an original series</a> on DailyWire+. Broadcasting from Washington, D.C., Brown joins a growing Daily Wire team in our nation’s capital. A new mom and Colorado native, Brown rose to fame posting her unfiltered thoughts on Instagram, where she now has over a million followers.

I am SO excited to finally announce that my podcast, The Isabel Brown Show, has a new home with <a href="https://twitter.com/realDailyWire?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@realDailyWire</a>!!

On her show, Brown will tackle the same subjects she addresses on her social media pages — everything from pop culture to the pro-life movement — and bring viewers with her as she takes D.C. by storm with her family.
“Earlier this year, I transitioned into the most important role of my entire life: mom,” Brown said. “Seeing the world through my daughter&#8217;s eyes and a fresh perspective has only given me more passion for our generation to fight on offense as hard as we can for what is good and true and beautiful.”

“Isabel Brown is sure to win over the hearts and minds of the Daily Wire audience with her common-sense takes, elegant humor, and intellectual prowess,” says Mike Richards, Chief Content Officer and President of Daily Wire Entertainment. “She brings brainpower, pop culture fluency, and the kind of fearless fun that causes liberal tears to flow like NPR tote bags at a Bernie rally.”
Daily Wire viewers will have plenty of time to get to know Isabel as they join her devoted community of “truth seekers” this fall.
But for now, here’s everything you need to know about The Daily Wire’s newest host.
<h3>She’s Fearless</h3>
Whether it’s <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DEpsnWPO5Br/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">free speech </a>in the digital era, women’s <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DDaLn3yyqta/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">biological identity</a>, or humanity’s most basic <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCR_Iv8yDZu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">right to life</a>, Isabel proudly stands up for her views — even when they’re unpopular. She was among the first to stand up for <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DDXhxcxS6YO/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TikTok’s</a> importance as a free speech platform, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DFOdldUug_4/?img_index=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">defends life </a>from the moment of conception, and even appeared <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C9Z5DDKuUEn/?img_index=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">on the cover</a> of Newsweek to champion conservative principles for Gen Z.
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-943343" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/07/Isabel_Final-4-384x576.jpg" alt="" width="384" height="576" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/07/Isabel_Final-4-384x576.jpg 384w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/07/Isabel_Final-4-200x300.jpg 200w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/07/Isabel_Final-4-768x1151.jpg 768w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/07/Isabel_Final-4-1025x1536.jpg 1025w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px" /></div>
<h3>She’s All About Faith and Family</h3>
Isabel grew up in a chaotic, loud, and very pink home, the oldest of <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C_qJa2fuBKC/?img_index=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">three girls</a> who loved to steal each other’s clothes and fight over who got to play with which American Girl doll. As a wife and new mom, Isabel is cherishing every second of her home life with her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C-VeLjEuI6J/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">husband</a>, Brock, their beautiful baby girl, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DKLDIgYNh8M/?img_index=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Isla</a>, and, of course, her trusty sidekick, Liberty the Corgi. Guiding Brock as he converted to Catholicism inspired Isabel to take an even deeper interest in her faith, and she’s currently pursuing her master’s degree in theology at the University of Notre Dame. Go Irish!

<h3>She’s Always On The Move</h3>
Despite all the time she spends online, Isabel’s favorite thing to do is spend time in the great outdoors. Isabel scaled her first 14,000+ foot peak in her home <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CTcjRRaAYQy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mountains of Colorado </a>at 10 years old. She’s on a <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CfejxLUJdXl/?img_index=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">quest</a> to visit all 63<a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CxRmJ3EtHeY/?img_index=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> National Parks</a> and has traveled to 24 countries, scaling peaks in <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C0o__FFSnGA/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New Zealand</a>, road-tripping the <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C-7tJxgu5-6/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Scottish Highlands</a>, and retracing the steps of Jesus in the <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CiatG7FvjL8/?img_index=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Holy Land</a>.
She’s also a trained ram handler, thanks to her time caring for Colorado State University’s live mascot, CAM the Ram. Every weekend, she’d run with CAM on the football field in her boots to celebrate every touchdown, and spent many hours shearing sheep.
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-943345" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/07/Isabel-5049-384x576.jpg" alt="" width="384" height="576" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/07/Isabel-5049-384x576.jpg 384w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/07/Isabel-5049-200x300.jpg 200w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/07/Isabel-5049-768x1151.jpg 768w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/07/Isabel-5049-1024x1536.jpg 1024w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px" /></div>
<h3>She’s…Kind Of A Nerd</h3>
A self-described “certified theater kid,” Isabel has starred in “Hairspray” and “Les Misérables” and has seen nearly every Broadway production on stage. While she’s less likely to get dressed up for the theatre with a new baby at home, she loves singing &#8220;Wicked” and “The Sound of Music” at home with Isla.
She also loves sci-fi and fantasy, both books and movies — especially “Harry Potter,” “The Lord of the Rings,” and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C710k6SOXcK/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Star Wars</a>. She maintains to this day that “The Empire Strikes Back” is the greatest standalone film ever made, and actually cried driving through Glencoe, Scotland while listening to the “Harry Potter” film score. Don’t judge.

Meet Isabel Brown, The Daily Wire’s Newest Host

Gen Z

Podcast

WASHINGTON—Isabel Brown, a popular Gen Z cultural commentator and author, is joining The Daily Wire with a brand-new original series on DailyWire+, premiering this fall.
This move comes as The Daily Wire cements its position as a leading force in conservative new media, expanding its presence in Washington, D.C.
Brown <a href="https://www.theconservateur.com/features/isabel-brown-launches-new-show-with-the-daily-wire">announced</a> the news to her audience on social media and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1FcOQSDErM">YouTube</a> on Monday, saying that her daily show, based in Washington, D.C., will premiere on Daily Wire+ in the coming months.
&#8220;I have never been more passionate about fighting as hard as we can on offense to save the West,&#8221; Brown said. &#8220;It’s time for us to not just react to the insanity of the upside down we’ve been living in, but to build culture and a new American Dream together.&#8221;

“I have spent my career working with the world&#8217;s top media personalities, so I know talent when I see it,&#8221; Mike Richards, Chief Content Officer and President of Daily Wire Entertainment, said. &#8220;Isabel Brown is sure to win over the hearts and minds of the Daily Wire audience with her common-sense takes, elegant humor, and intellectual prowess.&#8221;
&#8220;She brings brainpower, pop culture fluency, and the kind of fearless fun that causes liberal tears to flow like NPR tote bags at a Bernie rally,&#8221; Richards added. &#8220;That’s the exact kind of chaos — we mean energy —we’re building at Daily Wire. She’s precisely the kind of voice we want turning up the volume at The Daily Wire.”

Born and raised in the mountains of Colorado, Brown joined the fight for free speech and conservative values as a pre-med student at Colorado State University. There, she began livestreaming and building a vibrant digital community she has dubbed the “truth seekers.” Today, she boasts over a million followers on Instagram and a fiercely loyal audience that’s followed her from classroom debates to cultural showdowns.
Brown is best known for her fearless pro-life advocacy, viral reaction videos, and sharp takes on pop culture, politics, and policy. The D.C.-based Isabel Brown Show, coming to DailyWire+ this fall, will be a daily destination for anyone craving substance with style, blending Americana optimism with unapologetic truth.
This announcement rides in on a wave of momentum for The Daily Wire: fresh from dominating the <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politics-news/how-ben-shapiro-conquered-maga-verse-trump-1236104674/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post-election</a> podcast <a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/12/10/the-daily-wire-eyes-growth-investment-in-2025" target="_blank" rel="noopener">charts</a>, playing a <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/04/us/transgender-care-ban-tennessee.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">key role</a> in the Supreme Court’s affirmation of Tennessee’s child mutilation ban, producing <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general-news/how-am-i-racist-matt-walsh-1236008035/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">box office</a> hits like &#8220;Am I Racist?&#8221;,  <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/leftist-censorship-cartel-garm-disbands-following-musk-lawsuit-ben-shapiro-testimony" target="_blank" rel="noopener">leading</a> the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-trump-ftc-secures-landmark-agreement-to-end-political-collusion-in-advertising-industry" target="_blank" rel="noopener">industry-disrupting</a> fall of global censorship cartels, and the platform’s <a href="https://www.semafor.com/article/04/27/2025/daily-wire-to-open-dc-branch" target="_blank" rel="noopener">strategic expansion</a> into D.C., The Daily Wire isn’t just keeping pace — it’s setting the standard for conservative new media in America.
Before her time in media, Brown obtained degrees in Biomedical Sciences from both Colorado State University and Georgetown University. She&#8217;s currently pursuing a second master&#8217;s degree in Theology from the University of Notre Dame. In 2021, she published her first book,<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Frontlines-Finding-American-College-Campus/dp/1544519303" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Frontlines: Finding My Voice on an American College Campus</a>, sharing her encounter with radical leftism from the heart of America’s university experience. Her latest book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/End-Alphabet-How-Save-America/dp/1546006257" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The End of the Alphabet: How Gen Z Can Save America,</a> makes a compelling case for why Gen Z is the last hope to save Western civilization from the upside down Left, and why we shouldn’t write them off just yet.
