I’ll skip wishing you luck, as you’ve spent the last several years honing the skill that will take you where luck never could. Interested to hear your new work and VERY interested in the side content. I inevitably leave your podcasts with more questions than when I started, which in my opinion is a mark of quality. I hope you will be sharing your reference and source list as well.
Sorry, I am a weak person and can't pass up the opportunity to make a Rick and Morty reference. Already signed up. Thanks for all the work you put into the podcast.
I've been a very happy consumer of your content for years and am very glad to support the top tier work you produce. Thank you for the hours of thought-provoking entertainment and education.
Amazing Unraveling podcast (unmitigated disaster). You and Jocko have very clear audio “tells”, it’s very obvious when you are emotional about your interpretation of history, lived or read. You guys kind of broke character in this episode, and went a little more journalist than historian. Everyone is over Afghanistan, old news, and we still have our own (including Afghani’s) left behind. Thank you both for risking your reputations to speak truth to power. That gives me some hope. I truly appreciate both of your work.
Would love for you to create a subscriber podcast link if possible, so we can track you through our podcast client rather than just directly through substack.
I am an old man in Alabama pleased that circumstances have allowed you to choose to direct a greater part of your attention and your actions to sharing an understanding of how to be in the world. I have been your follower since before you posted your 3rd episode of ‘’Fear & Loathing in the New Jerusalem”. I am now your substack subscriber.
I have already reconciled (to my satisfaction) how change in the world, accounted for by the unintelligence, unintended processes of evolution and entropy, can nevertheless be understood as purposeful and not random. Our actions in the world won’t create a road until the ideas inspiring them initiate a cohesion in the direction we go. I am hearten by the ideas you share.
So pumped for this. Question: In the Salem witch trials episode of the unravelling, Darryl mentioned a story about a court astrologer of the king engaged in satanic rituals. Wanted to look into this. Anyone have anything good?
Darryl I have no idea how to PM you. If you end up doing a series on the break up Yugoslavia you may want consider talking to me as part of your research. I have two first cousins that were imprisoned as part of the Croatian Six in Sydney Australia and my father is pretty much the most hardcore of Croatian nationalists (now an old man). Note: given my background everything I say will have a strong Croatian bias.
Signed up. If my new subscription never gets used (highly unlikely) the year long subscription is still pennies on the dollar for the content I have consumed from you over the last few years. Thanks so much for all your work.
I'm in. Love the book club idea.

Book club would be awesome
Anyone know his former solid retirement/benefits job he left? Curious what he use to do.
Also, anyone know why he left that exactly?
I usually only ever hear people leaving lame jobs for podcasting.
Idk why I want to know, curiosity I guess.
I’m sure glad he did leave tho, his content is truly in a league of its own.
I'm in. Keep up the great work.
Here for it sir, thanks as always.

I am in as well after listening to all of your podcasts to date.
I like the idea of a book club, I think three books that go together really well are:
Wealth & Poverty by George Gilder where he deconstructs capitalism and how our societies work.
The Social Animal by David Brooks where he tells the tale of a young girls rise from poverty to success and the price she and her family pays for it.
Making It by Norman Podhoretz where he shares how he grew up and went from being a Marxist to a neo conservative editor of Commentary magazine.
