Rich Zeoli: Animal Farm by George Orwell | The Book Club | PragerU
Tuesday, 18 November, 2025

Why does every utopia eventually turn into a tyranny? In Animal Farm, George Orwell tells the story of a farm revolution that begins with a promise of equality and ends with a new ruling class that looks no different from the one it replaced. Michael Knowles is joined by radio host Rich Zeoli to explore Orwell’s famous allegory of the Russian Revolution, the corrupting nature of power, and how noble ideals can be twisted into propaganda and oppression.
