What happens when a society's pursuit of pure rationality and radical individualism actually threatens to dissolve the trust that holds it together? Notre Dame University's Paul G. Kimball Professor of Arts and Letters, Dr. Vittorio Hösle, joins host PJ Wehry to discuss the overlooked genius of Giambattista Vico and the hidden dangers of modern rationalism. Dr. Hösle explores the philosophical foundations of the human sciences through his book Vico's New Science of the Intersubjective World. They examine why projecting modern thought onto ancient history fundamentally distorts our understanding of the past, and how recognizing the cyclical nature of civilizations can warn us against our own potential decay. In this conversation they explore: How Vico established a rigorous "new science" focused on the common nature of nations, effectively laying the groundwork for modern sociology and the human sciences. The profound realization that archaic humans experienced the world through sensual metaphors and mythic wisdom rather than abstract concepts or romantic love. The crucial discovery of the fallacy of anachronism—and why erudite scholars constantly make the mistake of projecting their own modern mindset onto the past. Why pure rationality and universal rational egoism, termed the "barbarism of reflection," can dissolve societal trust and lead to civilizational collapse. The sobering reality that historical progress is not guaranteed, and that the collapse of high civilization remains a persistent threat even today. Vico's method of conceptually understanding archaic societies by comparing epochs, even when directly empathizing with their foreign mindset is impossible. This is a conversation for anyone interested in philosophy, sociology, and history who wants to understand the foundational forces that shape human societies and the historical blind spots of the modern age.

In 1883, Buffalo Bill's Wild West went on tour. The show combined theater, circus, and rodeo. It was inspired by Cody's experiences as a Pony Express rider and Army scout, and it romanticized an American West that was already disappearing. Spectators flocked to the show, which included a buffalo herd, sharpshooter Annie Oakley, and reenactments of stagecoach robberies. It also featured a band of Native Americans, including Chief Sitting Bull. The Native performers welcomed the chance to leave the reservation and return to riding, and they were paid as well as the white performers.
Why did the US invade Iran? What does it have to do with American imperial decline? Why do oligarchs need the permanent war economy? Why is left populism impossible without an anti-war movement? What should a leftist or progressive foreign policy actually look like? Is AOC an organic intellectual, and what do we need from her foreign policy? Why did Bernie Sanders shift from talking about kleptocracy to talking about oligarchy? What are the prospects for left populism at home and anti-imperialism abroad? And why is political reform still possible in a revolutionary conjuncture?

One of the most haunting moments in Nuremberg isn't about the verdict—it's about restraint. In a quiet execution scene, a condemned Nazi breaks down. He panics. He loses control. And the man who helps clean him up before his death is a Jewish guard.This episode isn't an argument against punishment. It's an argument against dehumanization as punishment. After the Holocaust—one of the most heinous crimes in human history—the response at Nuremberg was measured, procedural, and deeply human. Not because the crimes deserved mercy, but because justice loses its legitimacy the moment it becomes barbaric. The defendants were given lawyers, a platform, and the dignity to speak—even when there was real fear they could manipulate public opinion or reframe themselves as martyrs. That risk was taken anyway. Because justice that only exists when it's easy isn't justice—it's control.Even when the sentence was death, it wasn't spectacle. No cheering crowds. No humiliation. No entertainment.That Jewish guard becomes the moral center of the story—not through forgiveness or absolution, but through dignity within necessity. He refuses revenge. He refuses spectacle. He refuses to let evil dictate his own humanity. In a time when punishment is increasingly public, instant, and performative—especially online—Nuremberg asks a harder question than “Who deserves punishment?” It asks: Who do we become when we deliver it?

While the world witnessed Israel's genocide in Gaza, another war has been unfolding inside Israeli prisons. Thousands of Palestinian prisoners, including women and hundreds of children, are held under brutal conditions, many without charge or trial. In this episode, we speak with Palestinian lawyer Nadia Daqqa, one of the first attorneys to visit Palestinians abducted from Gaza after long months of enforced disappearance. Nadia shares chilling testimonies of starvation, torture, and medical neglect. She also unpacks Israel's policies that reinforce the illegal mass detention of Palestinians, revealing another war taking place quietly behind prison bars.
