"WhatifAlthist" | World History, Philosophy, CultureThe Greatest Lie Ever ToldWhile history remained relatively objective, anthropology has been utterly destroyed by pseudoscience—THREE-QUARTERS of Amazon's top anthropology books are scientifically fraudulent! My research across multiple fields has uncovered something unprecedented: the 20th century pulled off the most astonishing deception in human history. Despite unprecedented access to information and "intellectual freedom," our supposedly advanced civilization embraced absurdities our descendants will mock us for believing. This discovery is so enormous that those who see it feel momentarily insane.SPONSORS:NetSuite: More than 41,000 businesses have already upgraded to NetSuite by Oracle, the #1 cloud fin...

"WhatifAlthist" | World History, Philosophy, CultureThe Story of Black AmericaIn progressive religion, African-Americans occupy a sacred caste status—beyond criticism, requiring constant resource redistribution. Yet this narrative ironically continues black America's core historical theme: dehumanization. Leftists project onto black Americans whatever serves their power needs rather than seeing them authentically. Growing up in majority-black Philadelphia taught me that most progressives from whiter areas fundamentally misunderstand black culture, perpetuating the very dehumanization they claim to oppose.

Resúmenes de lectura rápidaExploring the Roots of America: A Deep Dive into David Hackett Fischer's “Albion's Seed”
What are the four British folkways that Fischer identifies, and what regions of America did they influence?
In his book "Albion's Seed: Four British Folkways in America," David Hackett Fischer identifies four distinct folkways that influenced different regions of America. These are:
1. The Puritans (East Anglia) : This folkway originated from the Puritan settlers of East Anglia, England, who established themselves primarily in New England. The values of hard work, community, education, and a strong sense of moral responsibility were key characteristics of this group.
2. The Cavaliers and their Culture (South England) : This folkway came from...

"WhatifAlthist" | World History, Philosophy, CultureThe Anthropology of the LeftWe know nothing about what we're closest to—like toxic relationships we can't recognize. Today's society is arguably history's most ABSURD, yet we refuse to study ourselves anthropologically. Instead, we embrace untested stupidities: blank slate theory, cultural equivalence, gender sameness. This series examines modern political tribes through the same objective lens we'd use on Amazonian cultures. First up: the origins, strengths, weaknesses and character of the left.

The History of the AmericansJean Nicolet’s Journey to Wisconsin in 1634
In this episode we tell the story of Jean Nicolet, one of Samuel de Champlain’s embedded interpreters. In the summer of 1634, Champlain sent Nicolet to negotiate a treaty with a tribe known to eat their enemies on the shores of Green Bay, Wisconsin. Along the way we consider the first European encounters with cities that today have National Football League franchises, and the fraught question of Nicolet’s legendary “Chinese robe,” which was depicted on a United States postage stamp in 1934. But the serious question remains: Was Champlain still looking for a northwest passage, or playing geopolit...

While the intellectual and civic contributions of Williams were legion, there are four startlingly modern things that he essentially invented. First, Williams argued that requiring people to attend church and worship in a particular way – a practice the English called “conformity” and essentially a universal obligation in Christian Europe for centuries – was an offense unto...

It is the summer of 1609. Samuel de Champlain has founded Quebec and spent the winter there. During that very difficult time, with its Jamestown-like death rate, he had built strong alliances with the Montaignais, Huron, and other local tribes. The Mohawks, coming up from today’s New York State, have been attacking Champlain’s allies for many years, long before the French arrived, but those attacks have intensified. The European fur trade has gotten more lucrative, and that makes the tribes along the St. Lawrence a more attractive target for Mohawk attacks. Champlain develops a plan to laun...

After a brief digression into current events and a visit to a Ukrainian speakeasy, we accompany Samuel de Champlain to the first settlement of New France, which was in today’s Maine, just 1700 feet from Nova Scotia. We also recount his three trips along the coast of New England in 1604, 1605, and 1606, barely missing George Weymouth and the Archangel along the way.

2022-02-1936 minThe History of the AmericansIntroduction to Samuel de Champlain and Some Other Stuff
In this episode we introduce Samuel de Champlain, without whom there might never have been a meaningful French presence in northern North America, largely through the work of the great historian David Hackett Fischer. We also consider Fischer’s views on whether history should be useable. Finally, but first, we address listener concerns over my pronunciation of “Powhatan,” a fraught topic indeed.

He points to research suggesting that voter ID laws and absentee voting have modest effects on elections and the reality that Republican state officials already have tremendous power to alter election outcomes — powers they did not use in the aftermath of 2020 and show few signs of preparing to use now.So I invited Ross on the show to hash it out: Am I too alarmed, or is he too chill?
