Podcasts about academia

The centerpiece of this episode is DHP Episode 253: Academia is a Racket, which CJ produced back in late-February 2023, only about 6 months after he walked away from academia, after spending 22 years of his life in it (6 as a student & 16 as a teacher.) In this episode, CJ mostly avoided the lowest-hanging & widely understood defects of academia in recent decades — ie, the rise to hegemony of once-fringe (even in academia) “Woke” ideology, & the exorbitant costs to the students of getting a college “education.” Instead, drawing from his 22 years inside academia, he mostly focuses on structural (in the true sense of the word) problems inherent in the nature of the institution & the perverse incentives created thereby, which minimize the amount of education (in the true sense of the word) that takes place. Join CJ as he discusses the following problems with modern conventional academia: No real market feedback mechanism to indicate whether a “good education” is being provided. Overspecialization. Rigid credentialism. Too many courses online (especially at the intro/gen-ed level.) Excessive disability accommodations. Private-sector profiteering (off a captive audience & cartelized, non-competitive system.) Administrative bloat. A focus on arbitrary metrics that can be juked/gamed. Degree inflation. The accreditation agencies functioning as a cartel enforcer to artificially restrict entry & reduce competition. Ideology baked into most (if not all) disciplines, in many cases for over a century. The adversarial relationship often automatically created between student & teacher. State & corporate influence & control. Like this episode? Support the DHP on Patreon!

Rev Jamie is back with a solo episode that starts with absurdity and ends with righteous anger.

You've spent so many years earning your degrees. But how do you know if staying in academia is the right thing for you?  Whether you hope to keep working on campus or chart a new path, this episode will help you take stock of what you need, and design the life you want. Questions this episode asks include: when are you at your best; when do you feel engaged and excited; when do you feel valued; and when are you making a contribution? It then asks you to make connections: where are you when you feel those things, and who are you with? We also explore what you can do to help yourself make career decisions: going on informational interviews, expanding your definition of “success,” becoming curious about what could make your life better, and considering how you can make adjustments to your current job so it works better for you.

The Dungeons & Doctorates cast gather to celebrate 6 years of making the podcast by answering questions and discussing the show

This episode examines the declining male labor force participation rate in America, which has fallen to its lowest level since 1948, with roughly one in three men no longer working or seeking work. While mainstream explanations point to manufacturing decline, an aging population, and the opioid crisis, host John Odermatt argues that a decade of DEI policies has systematically pushed men—especially white men—out of industries across corporate America, academia, media, and tech. Drawing on Jacob Savage's viral Compact Magazine article "The Lost Generation" and survey data from hiring managers themselves, the episode presents sector-by-sector evidence of documented hiring discrimination. Odermatt shares his own experience of being pushed out of corporate America and reframes the crisis not as a story of victimhood, but as a call for men to build income streams they control—through entrepreneurship, skilled trades, and commission-based work. The episode closes with a challenge to listeners: stop building your life on a foundation someone else can pull out from under you.

Text the show! Jason Arday was hired by Cambridge University as a professor of sociology.Chad argues that he was also given another job—one Cambridge never put in his contract.He became a symbol.That distinction is at the center of today's Monologue Monday.Rather than joining the argument over whether Arday's downfall proves DEI is corrupt or whether his treatment proves the media is racist, Chad follows the institutions that surrounded him: Cambridge, Harvard, academia, publishing, and the British press.Why were extraordinary biographical claims repeated for years without basic verification? What happened when academics raised plagiarism concerns with Cambridge? Why did the institution defend Arday before eventually investigating his qualifications? And why did his appointment receive radically different treatment from that of another Cambridge professor later found guilty of plagiarism?Chad also tells a personal story about being offered LGBTQ-targeted business funding—and the moment he realized the people across the table were more interested in his identity and story than the company he was actually building.The episode ultimately reaches a larger argument about DEI itself:A policy can fail. A doctrine cannot.If evidence against a policy causes us to change the method while preserving the mission, the system can correct itself.If every negative result is instead explained away, renamed, ignored, or blamed on the people questioning the program, we're no longer measuring policy.We're defending belief.Call or text the show: 252-CHAD-LAWEverything Common Sense, including Chad's books, editorials, and free Common Sense Conservative Manifesto: ChadParkerLaw.comCHAPTERS00:00 The Job Nobody Tells You About01:02 Jason Arday: The Professor and the Symbol09:43 When the Symbol Has to Keep Growing17:23 Chad's Own Encounter With the Second Job21:07 Hilary Cremen and Cambridge's Warning23:38 The Plagiarism Evidence27:36 Institutional Protection and the Investigation30:12 The Media Helped Build the Symbol33:31 Kendi, Race and the 249-Article Question42:05 When DEI Becomes Doctrine#JasonArday #DEI #Cambridge #MonologueMonday #CommonSense

Find us at www.crisisinvesting.com  The hosts discuss the death of Cambridge professor Jason Arday, describing him as Cambridge's youngest Black full professor and alleging his career was built on fabricated claims and widespread plagiarism, with media framing his death as a tragedy potentially linked to press scrutiny. They argue plagiarism and DEI bureaucracy are widespread in academia and connect this to the student-debt crisis, citing 9 million borrowers in default and noting shifts from COVID-era payment freezes to paused collection tools. The conversation broadens to rising consumer debt, buy-now-pay-later growth, and U.S. fiscal strain, including $1.3 trillion annual interest expense and $40 trillion owed, warning of defaults or bailouts. They also cover migrant pressure on Spain's Ceuta and recommend Jean Raspail's The Camp of the Saints. Finally, they debate Peter Diamandis' "universal high income" optimism amid AI/robotics and conclude with bullish moves in small-cap resource stocks and extreme commodity undervaluation versus equities. 00:00 Jason Arday Death 00:56 Fraud And Plagiarism 02:35 Media Reaction Debate 04:34 Academia DEI Bloat 06:14 Student Loan Defaults 08:47 Debt And Deflation Fears 11:23 Ceuta Migrant Crisis 13:47 Camp Of The Saints 15:35 Diamandis High Income 19:41 Robots And Scarcity 21:52 Resource Stocks Rally 24:31 Wrap Up And Q&A

Send us Fan MailBill Bartholomew talks with Katie Sonder, Associate Director and Fellow at the Salve Regina University Pell Center, about the center's August 2026 Voices of Value poll and what it says about Rhode Island's Democratic and Republican primary races. The conversation focuses on the headline McKee-Folkes result, the unusually high number of undecided voters, and how academic polling can fill a gap left by shrinking local media polling.Bill Bartholomew frames the poll, questions the methodology, and argues that academic polling is becoming more important as traditional outlets poll less often. Katie Sonder explains the survey design, the likely-voter screen, the two-step question process for undecided respondents, and why the Pell Center launched the project in the first place.Key topicsIn this episode, the main headline is the Democratic gubernatorial primary poll showing Helena Folkes ahead of incumbent Governor Dan McKee, 48% to 28%.Katie Sonder says the most surprising finding is the size of the undecided bloc, especially in down-ballot races like Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General, where nearly half of likely voters are unsure.Sonder explains the poll's two-question method for undecideds: respondents first pick among candidates, then are asked again if they have to choose.The Pell Center's Voices of Value project is designed to track Rhode Island views on state issues and national issues, including democracy, polarization, media habits, legislation, and bridge reconstruction.Bill and Katie discuss the broader role of academia in polling and journalism as local media budgets shrink and fewer outlets produce their own statewide polls.Sonder says the Pell Center sees the poll as a public good and a bridge between the university and the community.On the Democratic side, Sonder points to crowded fields and lower name recognition as reasons for uncertainty in races like Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General.Bill notes that in the Lieutenant Governor race, Sabina Matos and Zay Collin are near the top, but the undecided share remains very high.In the Attorney General race, Kim Ahern leads the pack, but 46% of voters are still unsure.The Senate discussion turns to the three-way race involving Jack Reed, Connor Burbridge, and Dr. Luis Daniel Munoz, with Bill arguing that Burbridge's 12% reflects real campaign momentum.On the Republican side, Sonder explains that the smaller sample size means a larger margin of error, but Elaine Poirino still holds a notable lead over Aaron and Jukian.Bill emphasizes the transparency of the Pell Center's materials, including the report, crosstabs, methodology, and survey questions.Timestamps00:00 - New Pell Center poll and the McKee-Folkes Democratic primary headline00:44 - Katie Sonder on the biggest surprise: the undecided vote02:30 - How the poll's two-step undecided question works04:49 - Why the Pell Center launched Voices of Value06:03 - Academia, journalism, and the shrinking local polling ecosystem07:14 - Why the Pell Center sees polling as a public service10:48 - How Katie thinks about reliability and academic rigor11:30 - Why down-ballot races have so many undecided voters12:40 - Using the poll to inform voters and candidate research13:10 - Jack Reed race, Connor Burbridge, and campaign momentum14:10 - Lieutenant governor race read: Matos, Zay Collin, and weak showings14:40 - Republican primary polling challenges and Elaine Poirino's lead15:28 - Sample size, margin of error, and confidence on the GOP side16:44 - Why the Republican race remains too fluid to call18:39 - Where to find the report, crosstabs, methodology, and survey questions19:24 - Transparency, expertise, and why the poll matters in the civic landscape Support the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Jacoba Lilius, Associate Professor at Queen's University, researcher, FOCUSED Certified Coach, and the research consultant for my upcoming book, You're Not in Trouble: The ADHD Guide to Building Healthy, Connected Relationships.Jacoba was diagnosed with ADHD in 2019 at age 42, after building a successful career in academia while quietly struggling with chronic procrastination, time blindness, and executive function challenges. We talk about what it was like to navigate such a demanding profession with undiagnosed ADHD—and how her diagnosis changed the way she understood herself and her work.We also go behind the scenes of You're Not in Trouble. Jacoba shares what it was like to serve as the book's research consultant, how she helped me ground the book in solid evidence, and what we learned along the way.And of course, we get into the survey findings from the book research that absolutely blew our minds.If you're a late-diagnosed ADHDer, an academic, or someone who has spent years wondering why everything seems to require so much effort, you'll want to hear this conversation.To reach out to Jacoba, click here.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sociology professor Jason Arday was lauded as the youngest-ever Black professor appointed at the University of Cambridge in 2023. But since landing that position, he'd been, according to his family, “subjected to a campaign of sustained abuse,” stemming from scrutiny about his work and record.Arday faced growing accusations of plagiarism and fraud, was found dead in London on August 14th, just days after he resigned from Cambridge. His death is raising new questions about how fairly Black academics are elevated and criticized in comparison to their peers. In this episode, we explore those questions with University of Southern California Professor Shaun Harper, whose research focuses on race, gender, and equity in education and other spheres. For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org. This episode was produced by Michelle Aslam and Jeffrey Pierre, with audio engineering by Robert Rodriguez.

No episódio número 250 do Podcast Filosofia Pop, conversamos com o filósofo Claudio Ferreira Costa sobre autismo e filosofia. Cláudio Ferreira Costa construiu sua trajetória acadêmica no Departamento de Filosofia da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), desenvolvendo pesquisas principalmente no campo da filosofia analítica contemporânea, com trabalhos em áreas como filosofia da linguagem, filosofia da mente e metafísica analítica. Realizou seu mestrado em Filosofia no Instituto de Filosofia e Ciências Sociais (IFCS), no Rio de Janeiro, e seu doutorado na Universität Konstanz, na Alemanha. Sua formação inclui ainda períodos de pós-doutorado na Hochschule für Philosophie, em Munique, na University of California, Berkeley, na University of Oxford e novamente na Universität Konstanz. Nesta conversa, partimos de seu texto sobre Síndrome de Asperger e filosofia para discutir sua experiência pessoal com o autismo, o diagnóstico tardio e questões relacionadas à linguagem, empatia, sociabilidade e vida acadêmica. O diálogo também passa pelas possíveis relações entre determinadas características do espectro autista e o trabalho filosófico, pelos limites das tentativas de diagnosticar filósofos do passado e pela própria maneira como Cláudio Costa compreende a atividade filosófica.

The shocking suicide of the fraudulent Jason Arday alongside the Atlantic cover story about how a mostly leftist scholar "of color" (Tyler Austin Harper) quit his tenure track job at Bates College because he couldn't stand "the insufferable hypocrisy of elite academia," ought to be the last straw for our nation's tolerance for a completely rotten education system, from K-12 through the colleges and universities. But it probably won't be, because the left is not going to give up these premier bastions of political power unless they are crushed. And that can't be done quickly or easily.Joining us this week to take the place of the truant John Yoo is Bates College alum Richard Samuelson, nowadays a professor of history at Hillsdale College, who adds some detail from his own experience as an undergraduate at Bates College, and you will wonder how he survived the place.We also have a brief cameo appearance from John, who notes the peculiar legal strategy being pursued by Liuigi Mangione, the killer of United HealthCar CEO Brian Thompson last year. Keep your eye on this one, as we have a possible conspiracy theory to roll out about it. And finally, we take up a reader comment about something we said last week about the meaning of the phrase, "nature bats last."This is a long episode, but it's ad-free this week, so it zips long even zippier than usual. I want to introduce again the new voice for the show opener, Colin McLean. Colin is a noted voice-actor in Britain, and semi-retired from a distinguished business career in The City. You can read about his voice work at his website Vocal Flair, and I also recommend his YouTube channel, The Healing Voice, where he ranges widely from poetry, music, story-telling, and some sensible psychology.

Cinco indicações sem vitória. Foi assim que Martin Scorsese chegou a Os Infiltrados (2006), o filme que finalmente lhe deu o Oscar de Melhor Diretor em 2007. Mas será mesmo essa a melhor obra da carreira dele, ou o prêmio veio como uma espécie de acerto de contas atrasado da Academia?Neste episódio de aniversário de 20 anos, o grupo destrincha detalhes que passam batido pela maioria do público: o filme é remake de um thriller de Hong Kong que nem Scorsese nem o roteirista assistiram antes de adaptar, a montagem de Thelma Schoonmaker que faz duas horas e meia parecerem uma só, e um motivo visual escondido em janelas e sombras que funciona como presságio de morte.Rafael Arinelli, Caio de Aquino, Fernando Machado e Cecília Barroso discutem a masculinidade performática de Matt Damon, o pânico constante de Leonardo DiCaprio, os improvisos assustadores de Jack Nicholson com uma arma de verdade no set, e o final com um rato que quase foi apagado digitalmente após uma petição de fãs em 2019.Vinte anos depois, Os Infiltrados continua questionando o sistema. Existe alguma diferença real entre o policial e o bandido?Ouça nosso Podcast também no:• Spotify: https://cinemacao.short.gy/spotify• Apple Podcast: https://cinemacao.short.gy/apple• Android: https://cinemacao.short.gy/android• Deezer: https://cinemacao.short.gy/deezer• Amazon Music: https://cinemacao.short.gy/amazonAgradecimentos aos padrinhos: • André Marinho Moreira• Bruna Mercer• Charles Calisto Souza• Daniel Barbosa da Silva Feijó• Diego Alves Lima• Eloi Xavier• Guilherme S.

Hoy nos visita en la Academia Miguel Aceves, investigador mexicano en Transcomunicación Instrumental cuyo libro, Voces Fantasmales, recoge su labor en el fenómeno de las Parafonías. Su trabajo explora fenómenos de audio paranormales, siendo particularmente famoso por sus investigaciones en lugares abandonados como la antigua vecindad en Peralvillo. Junto al experto en TCI Raúl López, desgranamos la fenomenología y escucharemos diversos cortes, algunos de ellos realmente inquietantes, recogidos por el propio Miguel en sus numerosas experimentaciones. En su sección “Arqueología de los Medios”, Miguel Herrero nos habla de mujeres pioneras en el espectáculo audiovisual previo a la aparición del cine. Durante el auge de la Linterna mágica y otros montajes de fantasmagorías, hubo realmente “mujeres orquesta”, que realizaban la labor completa de diseño, dirección, producción y ejecución de los shows. Ejemplo de esto es la española Josefa Bañoblez, cuyos montajes asombraron al Madrid del siglo XIX. Unas auténticas pioneras del cine a quien hoy rendimos homenaje. Bienvenidas y bienvenidos a la Academia. ________________________________________ Podcast Academia de los Nocturnos Dirige: Félix Friaza Presentan: Félix Friaza y Lola Velasco Colaboran: Javier Resines y Miguel Herrero Locución: Lola Velasco Edición y diseño: Juanca Romero Hasmen Edición de sonido: Gregorio Ruescas - Estudio McIntyre ________________________________________ Si te gusta nuestro programa, suscríbete en Ivoox, comenta y dale a Me gusta.

In this episode, Nina Borba joins me to discuss the history of the everyday lives of enslaved Africans in the Central West of Brazil. Nina is a Ph.D. candidate in History, with a specialization in Latin America, at Stanford University, where she also completed her master's degree. Nina's research focuses on the African diaspora in the hinterlands of Brazil, particularly on the formation of communities and families by enslaved people in Mato Grosso during the 18th and 19th centuries. As a historian, Nina is dedicated to sharing Brazil's racial history as living, accessible knowledge connected to the Brazilian population. 

UC Santa Barbara is looking to extend and establish more Artificial Intelligence Guidelines for academia across campus. There are still several questions about the appropriate use of AI, and debate about how to apply the technology throughout the wide range of disciplines the university offers. KCSB's Mavis Holley spoke to UCSB Psychology and Brain Science Professor Miguel Eckstein to learn more.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the White House's new childhood vaccine schedule aligning the US with Europe, alongside newly uncovered Fauci text messages showing he privately worried the COVID shot could cause miscarriages while publicly insisting it was safe. Bryan covers a wave of admissions from academia, with UC professors now pushing to reinstate the SAT after watching students arrive unable to handle basic coursework, plus alarming new data showing most New York elementary schoolers can't read at grade level despite record spending. He also breaks down his heated pushback against GOP Senator Lisa Murkowski's defense of the Smithsonian against Trump's bias claims. Plus, Bryan covers fresh intelligence warning of another mass Muslim migrant crossing into Spain's Ceuta enclave planned for August 15th, allegedly orchestrated by Morocco's king, and growing evidence connecting that effort to Spain's Marxist government.

Nathan Cofnas, the academic who recently drew widespread attention for exposing plagiarism allegations against Cambridge professor Jason Arday, returns to Brain in a Vat to discuss academic freedom, institutional conformity, and his own controversial departure from Cambridge.Cofnas argues that universities create incentives for academics to conform, particularly when scholarship challenges prevailing political and moral assumptions. He recounts the backlash to his writing on race and intelligence, including student petitions, protests, complaints, and the lengthy Cambridge investigation that followed.Can universities remain committed to free inquiry when students and administrators find certain conclusions offensive? Cofnas contends that academic institutions must distinguish between social norms and punishment, and that protecting truly open inquiry requires tolerating ideas many people find objectionable.Chapters:[00:00] Introduction to Nathan Cofnas[00:15] Philosophy Outside the University[04:40] Universities and the Limits of Free Inquiry[11:35] How Academia Selects for Conformity[13:30] Cofnas's Cambridge Free Speech Controversy[27:25] Student Veto Power in Academia[30:49] Race, IQ, and the Harm Objection[34:22] The Case for Discussing Offensive Truths[38:27] Race, Group Differences, and Wokeism[50:03] Academic Freedom and Social TaboosSubscribe on Substack: https://braininavat.substack.com/

They look like lost children… until you see their eyes — and realize you've just opened the door to something inhuman.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/dontlettheminREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/yath5y6wFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Described as childlike beings with eerie coal black eyes, no iris or pupils, and pale, white skin, a scourge of mysterious black-eyed children have been reported all over the world. There are hundreds of reports of black-eyed children, often seen in groups of two or more, who ask for permission to enter the person's home or vehicle. Witnesses often report an overwhelming feeling of dread and despair in their presence. What the black-eyed children seek is not known… nor is it known exactly what they are. (Invasion Of The Black Eyed Kids) *** In October of 1943, a U.S. Navy destroyer was supposedly turned invisible and teleported from Philadelphia to Norfolk. But did it really happen? (The Truth Behind The Philadelphia Experiment) *** The Witchcraft Act of 1735 ended the gruesome practice of burning witches at the stake, making it illegal to accuse anyone of having magical powers. Yet in 1944, Helen Duncan was convicted under this very law for fraudulent spiritual activities. Despite her claims of contacting spirits through ectoplasm and even revealing classified naval secrets, she was sentenced to prison. Her trial was one of the last times the Witchcraft Act was used before being replaced in 1951, but her supporters continue to campaign for her pardon. (Britain's Last Witch) *** Once a powerful festival, Dies Sanguinis, or "Day of Blood," honored the Roman goddess of war, Bellona, with animal sacrifices and martial rituals. The festival showcased Rome's military strength and dedication to victory. Although the rise of Christianity and the fall of the Roman Empire eventually ended the festival, its legacy still sheds light on the fascinating nature of ancient Roman culture. (Rome's Day of the Bloody Sacrifice) *** The Dardeen family was found brutally murdered in their home near Ina, Illinois, leaving residents and investigators stumped. Yet even after a confession by Tommy Lynn Sells, the truth is still a mystery.

Anthony Rispo came up on the progressive left — a gay man who found a home in an ideology that rewarded his grievance, teal hair and half-mohawk included. Then the pandemic, BLM, and the campus orthodoxy around him stopped adding up, and he read his way out. Now a writer, independent researcher, and Columbia psychology graduate studying cognitive neuroscience, he maps the wiring beneath our politics: identity fusion, moral conviction, selective empathy, and the resentment Nietzsche named. We get into why the left cancels hardest in the name of compassion, why “power and privilege” became a substitute for a self, how the same rigidity shows up on the right, and what common sense on borders and belonging really means.(00:00) Palestinians Then Vs Now(00:35) Opening Conversation(04:20) Anthony's Origin Story(11:35) From Woke to Doubt(27:56) Losing Friends Finding Voice(37:15) Psychology of Ideology(54:54) Clarity Over Conformity(58:33) Nuance Through Exposure(01:02:44) Individualism Vs The Tribe(01:08:18) Intersectionality Critique(01:14:54) From 9/11 to Academia(01:24:42) The Problem with No BordersGuest LinksInstagram: @anthonyrispoSubstack: rispo.substack.comConnect with UsJoin RATH AcademyStart the Free 7-Day Self-Esteem ResetFollow us on InstagramJoin our membership Friends of the TruthWatch All Episodes

Across universities today, raw GPAs treat an A in advanced econometrics the same as an A in introductory film studies. Standard grading systems inadvertently penalize students who challenge themselves and reward those who course-shop. In this episode, we speak with Harvard Business School Professor Scott Kominers about his recent paper that looks at how mathematical market design and "eigengrades" can strip out course difficulty to measure actual student performance. The paper proposes a fixed-effects model—using student overlap across courses—to isolate true academic capability. We explore how this simple structural fix could end the strategic game of course-shopping. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Why does a man with everything going right for him quietly fall apart on the inside? Jeremy Lipkowitz was a PhD student at Duke studying the genetic code that supposedly explains what a human being is. On the outside it looked like a life going exactly to plan. In private he was losing to a compulsion nobody around him knew about, and the more he achieved the worse it got. Eventually he stopped trying to fix himself from the outside, left the program, flew to Myanmar, and ordained as a monk.He has spent the last decade teaching men to do what he did, without religion, dogma, or drugs. His show is Unhooked and his work is at https://unhookedacademy.com/We talk about where shame actually comes from, what happens to you around day four of a silent retreat, and whether moderation is possible with anything engineered to hook you. Late in the episode we get into whether there is anything behind all of this. He says no. I made my case anyway. Neither of us moved, and that exchange might be my favorite part of the conversation.

Academics were in classrooms, at conferences, on stages around the world, defending the safety of GMOs and herbicides. They looked independent. They weren't. Some of the most credentialed voices in agricultural science were quietly collaborating with Monsanto, taking money from the company whose products they were defending.For a transcript of this episode: https://bit.ly/campusfiles-transcripts

She found that Columbia's English Department had replaced literature with Marxist theory, postcolonial studies, and critical theory. She's been pushing back ever since. We talked about: the teachers who made us both writers; reading Wallace Stevens's The Snowman — out loud, in full — and the seventh grade class that made Liza stand in the snow for an hour to understand it; Hemingway, Ezra Pound, and the fascism problem; what happened to Columbia's English Department and why it matters for publishing; why Marxism is fundamentally an ideology of resentment (Bertrand Russell said it 100 years ago); the novel Yesteryear and what it reveals about contemporary literary self-righteousness; why writing characters who disagree with you is the whole point; the Emily Wilson translation of the Odyssey and what "a complicated man" does to Odysseus's character; and Christopher Nolan's Odyssey film — specifically the Cyclops scene he cut, why it was the scene that defined Odysseus, and why its absence drains the heroism from the entire story.

Bob Zimmerman highlights the "bankruptcy" of modern academia, citing a study where half of social science papers failed replication tests. He discusses an upcoming Falcon 9 rocket impact on the moon scheduled for August 5th and new data from the Juno mission revealing Io's subsurface temperatures. Additionally, scientists are investigating whether a suspected asteroid is actually a failed 1980s Soviet Mars probe, although Zimmerman remains skeptical of speculative theories involving alien technology.
