Podcast appearances and mentions of matthew garrett

Is your tax money funding fake students and activist slush funds? What if the college degree you (or your kids) spent years chasing is barely worth the paper it's printed on? In this explosive episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we pull back the curtain on California's broken community college system - a system hemorrhaging billions while pumping out meaningless degrees and subsidizing fraud. Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS Joining Brian is whistleblower and former professor Matthew Garrett, who exposes how California's funding model rewards fake enrollment, encourages administrative bloat, and punishes academic rigor. You'll hear how tens of millions have been wasted on “students” who never existed, and how the obsession with equity has gutted educational standards. We dig into Governor Newsom's runaway spending spree, including programs for illegal immigrants, LGBTQ+ advocacy, inmate education, and even on-campus homeless shelters - all funded by your tax dollars. But what's worse? This isn't a bug in the system. It's the feature. Brian and Professor Garrett also tackle the cultural rot in academia - from DEI mandates replacing merit to administrators pushing credentials over competence. It's not just a California problem. It's a national crisis where participation trophies have replaced performance and mediocrity is being mass-produced in cap and gown. This isn't just a rant - it's a roadmap. You'll walk away with concrete ways to fight back, from contacting trustees and congresspeople to demanding real reform and accountability. If you care about education, your wallet, and your kids' future - this is an episode you can't afford to miss. ❤️ Order Cardio Miracle (CardioMiracle.com/TBNS) for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!

Dr. Matthew Garrett was a tenured, well-respected, award-winning professor of history– until he found himself fighting the system to protect his California college from radically racist policies.

Merry Christmas!  Today, we have another fiery holiday special for you, featuring segments from some of the best episodes and interviews from Conservative Daily!

A California community college district agreed to pay $2.4 million to a conservative professor in a recent settlement agreement after years of legal battles between the two parties. “After five years of administrative misconduct, a decisive courtroom display exonerated me of all allegations and exposed that Kern Community College District engaged in flagrant retaliation for my questioning of partisan policies and wasteful expenditures,” Matthew Garrett reacted in a statement to Fox News Digital. “Facing an imminent ruling in my favor and the prospect of paying millions of dollars in damages, KCCD had only one viable option: settlement.”

This afternoon, David began a conversation on the ridiculousness of our congress, pointing out how Diversity equity and inclusion hires (DEI) have been destroying America for years. David expressed that thankfully, Americans are beginning to realize identity politics is partly what allowed the Biden Regime to be so destructive, leading to more Americans speaking out against DEI. After a short beak, Matthew Garrett joined the show to tell his story of getting fired from Bakersfield College for speaking up against DEI along with the $2.4 million settlement he has received. Following another short break, Jake Lang joins the show from the DC Gulag to give us an important update on his case!

In this episode, Brad Westwood, host of Speak Your Piece, speaks with James Toledo, program manager at the Utah Division of Indian Affairs and co-host of the five-episode series, about his thoughts, ideas, and his family's experiences on Native American boarding schools and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' (hereafter LDS Church) Indian Student Placement Program (hereafter ISPP). In this episode, Toledo touches on how his family's multi-generational experiences attending boarding schools and the LDS Church's ISPP directly shaped his childhood growing up in Salt Lake City and impacted his learning and understanding of his Navajo culture. In all, this series has led Toledo to understand his family's experiences better and has brought to light the very complex history and stories of boarding schools and the LDS Church's ISPP; stories that are a crucial part of Utah and American history.Part 1: Native American Boarding Schools in the Am.

This episode aims to give a voice to those experiences and help listeners better understand the history, major themes, and underlying ideas behind the Native American boarding schools and LDS Church's Indian Student Placement Program that thousands of Native American children attended. Part 1: Native American Boarding Schools in the Am.

In this episode, Western Historian Matthew Garrett discusses his 2016 book Making Lamanites: Mormons, Native Americans, and the Indian Student Placement Program, 1947-2000 (University of Utah Press) with SYP co-hosts Brad Westwood and James Toledo. Garrett's book focuses on the education of Native American, mostly Navajo (Diné) children, as offered by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (hereafter LDS Church) from 1947 to 2000. This episode includes a narrative arc from the program's beginnings in Richfield, Utah, in 1947, to its closure amid changing Native American policies and rights. The podcast addresses why it was supported by some Native American leaders and parents; how it was seen as belated fulfillment of a prophetic obligation by the LDS Church to assist Native Americans in reclaiming an ancient Hebrew/Christian identity. And finally, how a court case propelled the LDS Church leadership into phasing out the program.   Part 1: Native American Boarding Schools in the Am.

In this episode, Franci Lynn Taylor (Choctaw), former Executive Director of the University of Utah's American Indian Resource Center, tells a story of Indian educational policies, with series hosts James Toledo and Brad Westwood. Taylor covers the post-Civil War-era boarding school policies inspired by the Carlisle Industrial School of 1879, the Dawes Act (1887), the Indian Relocation Act (1956), the Indian Self Determination Act (1975), and the American Indian Religious Freedom Act (1978). Taylor traces policies to the present day, including the Bureau of Indian Affairs' schools, tribally-run schools, state-run schools, and state-access schools.Throughout these federal policy attempts at Native American assimilation, Taylor describes a history of resiliency, generation after generation. The love for the community is the thread that weaves through this narrative. She concludes by tracing some of the healing initiatives for Native American communities which Taylor hopes will make sure many will never forget what happened, so history won't repeat itself. Part 1: Native American Boarding Schools in the Am.

Historian Farina King takes questions from co-producers James Toledo and Brad Westwood, offering a basic national, then an Intermountain West story, about the Indian boarding school era. The interview offers insights, as both King's and Toledo's parents and grandparents were survivors and/or participants in these schools; or the foster-parent and school program known as “the Indian Student Placement Program (ISPP),” which involved tens of thousands of Native American children across the Intermountain West, from 1947 to 2000, in a program offered by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As with most history, this is a complex story that cannot be generalized in one or two paragraphs. The SYP series is not an all-inclusive telling; rather it is an initial public conversation and historical inquiry. Further historical studies across Utah are needed. The Department of the Interior's Federal Indian Boarding School Initiative has preliminarily identified seven Utah Indian boarding or day schools so far (as of 2022); others might be discovered as researchers bring this historical topic into focus.Part 1: Native American Boarding Schools in the Am.

Had a great time chopping it up this week with Joseph Garrett. Joseph Matthew Garrett, of East Orange, NJ independently creates unscripted web series about 7 dream chasers balancing their dreams and the realities that threaten to deter them.   Joseph created this series out of nostalgia for the way reality TV was in the nineties on MTV and wanting to show that reality shows can have elements of positivity and not ALL conflict.  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/average-jay/support

In the newest Dialogue podcast Matthew Garrrett, Professor of History at Bakersfield College and winner of the 2015 Juanita Brooks Prize in Mormon Studies, discusses his research on the Indian Student Placement Program sponsored by the Church and documented in his recent book, Making Lamanites: Mormons, Native Americans, and the Indian Student Placement Program, 1947-2000, published by The University of Utah Press. From the Miller Eccles website: Dr. Garrett traces his adventures as a Native American history scholar meandering into the world of Mormon Studies, with special attention paid to the various perspectives and conflicts of both his own personal academic journey as well as those of the LDS Indian program he studied. From 1970s era protests over colonization, to conflicting views of Indian participants and church administrators, Professor Garrett will survey some of the past disputes that ultimately led to internal acrimony that destabilized, eroded, and finally terminated the LDS Indian programs.

Our guest for the hour today is Matthew Garrett, author of “Making Lamanites: Mormons, Native Americans, and the Indian Student Placement Program, 1947-2000” (University of Utah Press).

The Indian Placement Program was a program of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from 1947 to 2000, in which LDS Native American students were placed in LDS foster homes during the school year, where they would attend public schools and become assimilated into American culture. The program was initially developed to respond to the needs of Navajo teenagers and even younger children who were coming to parts of Utah to work. It was felt it would be better for them to get an education. Beginning in the 1970s, however, the Indian Placement Program came under criticism. Supporters believed that exposure to white culture was beneficial to Native American children, and that it improved educational and economic opportunities, while critics believed the program undermined the children’s Native American identity. In 2000 the last student graduated from the program, though the program never was officially discontinued. Matthew Garrett is currently an associate professor of history at Bakersfield College in California, teaching United States, California, and Native American Indian history courses. His dissertation and forthcoming book manuscript explore the LDS Indian Placement Program. He is also a devoted husband and the father of three adorable little girls.
