Episode 23: Is It Salt or Sugar?
There is no way we recover our liberty if we do not learn its value. And there is no way we learn its value unless we read those books where that value is revealed. We have allowed the tyrants to control what we learn and they have substituting salt for sugar in the recipe and we've just come to tolerate the taste. We aren't educated anymore. We're merely moved through a system that serves to teach us unquestioning obedience to strangers. Unfortunately, when it comes to school, our parents reward us for obeying the strangers and the strangers get...

Episode 22: Marathon and the Tooth That Changed the Course of History
The Battle of Marathon is the reason you speak English, have representative government, and are free to worship according to the dictates of your own conscience. You owe an enormous debt of gratitude to Callimachus, Miltiades, and the rest of the unnamed Athenian soldiers who bravely stood in defense of their (and YOUR) life, liberty, and property. That small stretch of beach is a tiny hinge upon which the whole of history swung and it swung in our favor FOR SURE! #battleofmarathon #history #ancientgreece #ancienthistory #joewolverton #teacherofliberty #marathon #persia #persianwars #darius #callimachus #athens #greece #tyranny #truehistory #miltiades #sparta #immortals...

He not only calls out Mark Antony for all his crimes against the people, the republic, and the constitution, but he tells the senators that by doing nothing to stop him they are just as much to blame as he is. Marcus Tullius Cicero. The Founding Fathers quoted Cicero all the time and more often than not they called him Tully (an anglicized) version of his...

With all due apologies to John Trenchard and Thomas Gordon, I am replacing the last episode with this one. That last one was just unwatchable, y'all, and those boys deserve more than that. Trenchard and Gordon's Cato's Letters were the "dress rehearsal for the Revolution" and there is NO WAY I would be forgiven for my transgression against them had I not rerecorded the episode devoted to them.

Cato's Letters were found in more libraries than John Locke and were reprinted in every colonial newspaper.

It has changed my life and it changed the life of our Founding Fathers, and it changed the lives of so many of the great people in history.
