Stuff They Don't Want You To Know
Discussed The Celts [2 volumes]
“There was an excellent article by a guy named Joseph Siegel that references a book by a guy named Samuel Romani. And Romani writes about Russia in Africa—resurgent great power or bellicose pretender?”
Discussed Raven Rock
“He has a book on it, the story of the U.S. government's secret plan to save itself while the rest of us die. So shout-out, shout-out to you, Garrett, because it's a great book, it's a gripping read, and Garrett is how I learned about Mount Weather.”
Discussed Seven Days in May

Modern Wisdom
Discussed A People's History of the United States
“And, you know, you've always had Howard Zinn types, let's say, on the left who are willing to point to issues, and your parents would say, 'Well, you know, be very careful with that book, because if you do know the truth, you can't participate in polite society.'”
