Know Your Enemy is a political podcast about the American conservative movement from a socialist perspective. It is hosted by two freelance writers: Matthew Sitman, a former conservative, and Sam Adler-Bell, a lifelong leftist. Founded in 2019^[1] and sponsored by the American Left magazine Dissent,^[2] the podcast covers the conservative movement's intellectual foundations and has a bipartisan listenership.^[3]

Episodes frequently take the form of "deep dives into conservative intellectual history", but have occasionally featured guest appearances from "enemies" such as New York Times opinion columnist Ross Douthat, and National Review contributor Nate Hochman. Featured historical subjects have included the life of ex-communist conservative intellectual Frank Meyer, Joan Didion's conservatism, and a three-part series on the right-wing effort to overturn Roe v. Wade.^[4]^[5]

In February 2023, Young America's Foundation filed a trademark infringement complaint against Sitman, Adler-Bell and Dissent over the name of one of the Know Your Enemy podcast's Patreon tiers, "Young Americans for Freedom", complaining that it was "likely to deceive the relevant consuming public into believing, mistakenly, that the Podcast's services originate from, are associated or affiliated with, or otherwise authorized by the Plaintiff." The foundation's complaint was withdrawn without prejudice in July 2023.^[6]
