This installment in the Woodrow Wilson series covers the period of the Wilson presidency from the summer of 1914 through the end of that year, when he said he wanted to keep the US neutral & out of the war, & still seemed to at least kinda mean it. (*Apologies for the lackluster audio quality in some of the middle segments - I accidentally used my laptop's crummy integral mic instead of my usual podcasting mic for those.)

CJ recently recorded this DHP Bonus Episode during one of his long drives that he's been doing as part of some of the non-DHP-related work he's been doing lately to make ends meet, and he decided to share it with "gen-pop" -- ie, freeloading, non-supporting listeners ;) -- on the public DHP feed for a limited time, too.

Harding, which was recently released in paperback. Join CJ & Ryan as they discuss Warren Harding, his presidency, and how, in contrast to the Establishment's take, Harding was actually a very good president, and far, far superior to his immediate predecessor, Woodrow Wilson - at least, if you actually value things like peace, freedom, civil...

We've all heard of the famous 'butterfly effect.' But is there a plausible, realistic, alternative historical scenario in which the US & the world could've been spared the worst aspects of Woodrow Wilson's presidency merely by altering one seemingly minor detail of the 1912 election? Yes there is. Join CJ in this super-concise DHP episode as he discusses just such a scenario, whereby changing only one seemingly humble variable in 1912 would probably have given the US a POTUS who would've...

Way, way back in 2018, to commemorate the 25th anniversary of one of his all-time favorite films, CJ recorded a discussion & review of the excellent 1993 Dystopian scifi/action/comedy film Demolition Man with Joshua Perry, who was then still doing his now-late, lamented Dusty Den podcast. This was a bonus episode only for financial supporters of the DHP or the Dusty Den, & was not published on any public feed for either show. Now, in 2023, to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the...

Finally, more than a year after Woodrow Wilson Part 9, CJ returns to the story of the man he loves to hate! This time, we're going to take a detour from the chrono-narrative of Wilson's presidency; this one is going to focus on Wilson's beliefs, statements & actions on race throughout his career as an academic & politician. Was Woodrow Wilson a racist? The short answer is yes, without a doubt. But as is so often the case with history, the details are more complicated & more...

In this episode, CJ discusses 12 authors who (in his opinion) deserve to be more widely known & read among libertarian/anarchist/etc type people. Most of these authors would not actually identify as "libertarians" or "anarchists," but all have a strong independent streak & have at least some views & attitudes that overlap with libertarianism and/or anarchism. Furthermore, all of them are great writers in their respective genres. Join CJ as he discusses: Montesquieu Alexis de...

Join CJ as he discusses the so-called "McCollum Memo" from the Office of Naval Intelligence, written by ONI officer Arthur McCollum & dated October 7th, 1940, which served as the blueprint for the FDR Administration's strategy of deliberately provoking Japan, a strategy that culminated in the Pearl Harbor attack 14 months later.
