I'll Have to Think About That

A much-overlooked subgenre of Metal music...tune in and turn up.

Poetic language, biblical allusion, and Abraham Lincoln commenting on what's at the core of the American Idea.

The Senate, as of January 2021, is split 50/50 between the two parties, meaning VP Harris could be busy breaking ties...but that only happens IF there is a tie, which means every Senator votes in accordance with his/her party. In the case of Joe Manchin (D) of WV, this was not looking to be the case when the year began, and is even more clear now (SEP '21). He's one of the Senators to watch.

In our system of government, free flow of truthful information is essential. In this episode I discuss this thorny issue and give some perspective on the history of the press in America, and the implications of the biased, low-quality mainstream media of today.

Disclaimer: CRT is pseudo-scientific garbage, and is entirely separate from America's past. Listen to get a clue about the history of this anti-intellectual movement.

What might be the implications of demonstrated existence of extraterrestrial life on the world's religions? I discuss, offer some evidence, and opine...

We Americans love to talk about, shout about, gripe about our rights...but did you know there are many different categories of rights? In this episode I discuss with Dr. Rob McDonald natural rights, which are the bedrock of the American view of rights, and in many ways quite unique in the world.

Begun in SEP 1944, the fight over tiny Peleliu, east of the Philippines, resulted in the highest casualty rate for any single battle in the Pacific in World War 2 for the United States, and yet this nasty battle is largely forgotten today. In this episode I discuss and explain the battle and why it's actually quite important.
