From segments recorded during multiple drives, CJ pieced together his first Silver Bullet episode in over 6 months (and his longest Silver Bullet episode ever), in which he goes over in detail 13 of his biggest complaints about academia, based on his observations & experience from having been a student in it for 6 years & a teacher in it for 16 years.
Join CJ as he discusses the following problems with modern conventional academia:
- No real market feedback mechanism to indicate whether a "good education" is being provided.
- Overspecialization.
- Rigid credentialism.
- Too many courses online (especially at the intro/gen-ed level.)
- Excessive disability accommodations.
- Private-sector profiteering (off a captive audience & cartelized, non-competitive system.)
- Administrative bloat.
- A focus on arbitrary metrics that can be juked/gamed.
- Degree inflation.
- The accreditation agencies functioning as a cartel enforcer to artificially restrict entry & reduce competition.
- Ideology baked into most (if not all) disciplines, in many cases for over a century.
- The adversarial relationship often automatically created between student & teacher.
- State & corporate influence & control.

For this DHP episode, CJ was happy to be joined again by Alexander Von Sternberg to talk about a recent episode Alex did on his show, History Impossible, called "Stakeholder Naziism."
Join CJ & Alex on a wide-ranging, freewheeling conversation about "stakeholder capitalism," its methodological similarities to fascism, the modern American "professional managerial class," how Wokeism fits into this, how these phenomena manifest in various institutions (including Hollywood & academia), and potential action items & white pills in the face of this seeming Orwellian Juggernaut!

Finally, more than a year after Woodrow Wilson Part 9, CJ returns to the story of the man he loves to hate!
This time, we're going to take a detour from the chrono-narrative of Wilson's presidency; this one is going to focus on Wilson's beliefs, statements & actions on race throughout his career as an academic & politician.
Was Woodrow Wilson a racist? The short answer is yes, without a doubt. But as is so often the case with history, the details are more complicated & more interesting than most people realize!
Join CJ as he does a deep-dive exploration into Woodrow Wilson's beliefs, statements, & actions regarding race through his academic & political careers.

In this episode, CJ discusses 12 authors who (in his opinion) deserve to be more widely known & read among libertarian/anarchist/etc type people. Most of these authors would not actually identify as "libertarians" or "anarchists," but all have a strong independent streak & have at least some views & attitudes that overlap with libertarianism and/or anarchism. Furthermore, all of them are great writers in their respective genres.
Join CJ as he discusses:
- Montesquieu
- Alexis de Tocqueville
- Jose Ortega y Gasset
- John Dos Passos
- Jacques Ellul
- Jane Jacobs
- Gore Vidal
- Edward Abbey
- Mike Resnick
- James C. Scott
- Kirkpatrick Sale
- F. Paul Wilson

For this DHP episode, CJ was delighted to be joined by retired Army officer, military contractor, and irregular warfare expert Bill Buppert. Long-time DHP listeners (& those who've gone through the back catalogue) may recall that Bill was the very first guest CJ ever had on the DHP, all the way back in 2015. A few months ago, Bill launched a podcast of his own, Chasing Ghosts, in which he covers the history, theory & practice of irregular warfare, and the shortcomings of its alleged antidote, counterinsurgency.
Join CJ & Bill as they discuss Bill's background, his podcast, irregular warfare, the problems with counterinsurgency, and 3 of the greatest practitioners of irregular warfare in the 20th century - Michael Collins, T.E. Lawrence, & Paul Von Lettow-Vorbeck, who all operated c. 1916-1922.

Join CJ as he discusses the so-called "McCollum Memo" from the Office of Naval Intelligence, written by ONI officer Arthur McCollum & dated October 7th, 1940, which served as the blueprint for the FDR Administration's strategy of deliberately provoking Japan, a strategy that culminated in the Pearl Harbor attack 14 months later.
