Nick Adams: podcast appearances and interviews

Nick Adams, born Nicholas Adamopoulos on September 5, 1984, is an Australian-American conservative political commentator, author, and diplomat. He is known for his advocacy of American exceptionalism, free market capitalism, and civics education. Adams came to public attention in 2017 when then-President Donald Trump made favorable comments and tweets about his books Green Card Warrior and Retaking America, and in 2020 regarding his book Trump and Churchill. He is recognized for his messaging of promoting Donald Trump and for describing himself as an alpha male. Adams has been labeled a social media heavyweight, a Trump-backed raconteur, and a far-right culture warrior, owing to his conservative social media presence and assertive persona. Prior to gaining prominence in the MAGA movement, he was a motivational speaker focusing on civics, American exceptionalism, and free enterprise. In 2026, Adams was appointed by Donald Trump as the Special Presidential Envoy for American Tourism, Exceptionalism, and Values, a position created by Trump after dropping his nomination for United States Ambassador to Malaysia amid protests by Malaysian leaders who accused Adams of being an anti-Muslim agitator and provocateur. Adams has authored several slim books, with forewords by prominent right-wing figures, and has received honorary resident status or commendations from eleven states including Texas, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Arkansas, South Carolina, Tennessee, Indiana, Nevada, Missouri, and Arizona.
