if they want to do an episode on a cia front money place they should do one on deak-perera, who laundered latin american drug money, got money to agents over the world, provided bribes. when the drug running poo poo blew up the company got dropped by the spooks, went bankrupt and the founder was murdered a year later by some "random mentally unstable woman" can't remember the article i read about it, was quite good e: https://www.salon.com/2012/12/02/better_than_bourne_who_really_killed_nick_deak/ it makes a sketchy case that the woman was mkultraed or something similar.

Makes u think" well okay yeah I forgot about that part, that was dumb as hell. jet fuel can in fact weak steel beams until they collapse and all of the controlled demolition stuff has clearly been 20 years of disinfo and people not understanding how buildings collapse. the social connections they discuss, on the other hand, seem quite plausible. didn’t some videotape from 2001 just get released corroborating that saudi intelligence was hanging out with the hijackers before 9/11? so it’s a bit of a mixed bag. no, it wasn’t holograms or nano thermite or whatever stupid bullshit, but saying intelligence agencies were involved is publicly substantiated to some degree. idk same deal with JFK. when they get into bizarre alternative theories of how it went down, I think they get off track. but when they talk about oswald was clearly an intel asset, or how ruby was mobbed up as gently caress, and he conveniently went nuts after a jailhouse visit by jolly west? yeah that’s a lot of suspicious circumstantial evidence.

They mix in obviously discredited things like "jet fuel cant melt steel beams" with the truth in order to make you seem like a kook when you explain to people how bush did 9/11

The "official narrative" with JFK is obviously completely bullshit, and I also think the relationships highlighted with regard to 9/11 are relevant (if you held a gun to my head and forced me to guess, I'd say that 9/11 was probably deliberately planned - or at least encouraged - by the US). With the Boston marathon bombing, though...some stuff seemed really tenuous. IMO Ben wouldn't be bad as "a guy who knows a huge amount of minutae about these events and can reference it on demand," but Brace/Liz would need to rein him in (which they don't seem inclined to do).

I was just flirting with the idea of restarting age of napolean from the very beginning. I've only listened all the way through once and it's been a few years. I've never listened to any pod like it that nails every aspect so well. Extremely consequential historic subject matter without being overdone like WW2, such good research with some original stuff, consistently engaging pacing and cadence, the rare insightful guest that's always great, and the loving legendary diligence of the historical materialism despite literally covering *the* great man of history in a biographical fashion all while not trivializing him as a person. Ok yeah I'm doing it, ep 1 tomorrow.

also probably the best way to learn about all the dumb poo poo napoleon got up to in corsica which really puts his career in perspective nobody likes to talk about the time he was a firebrand revolutionary who got his rear end kicked all the time

hegel said that napoleon was history on horseback, but i'm not being successful so far convincing my local org to let me review them like napoleon although i don't have a horse but perhaps a bicycle or mobility scooter will work as a substitute

Ok yeah I'm doing it, ep 1 tomorrow. I just binged it from the start and it zipped by, great podcast. Interesting to compare to Revolutions as well, though the biggest overlap is Haiti which as people said before is Mike Duncan at his most leftist since the main history was written by a marxist

Age of Napoleon is fantastic. I've been going through it pretty slowly and restart it if I haven't listened to an episode for several months. I'm like a third of the way through, but it's the perfect combo of short-but-informative episodes that don't overwhelm you or bore you.

It's worth hunting for screenshots and if you search "YOU DID THIS" twitter is filling all the squares with pics on their phone.

Bill Clinton gets:quote:Quite frankly, you kinda did this too. Yeah, you appointed Breyer and RBG and did a lot of good. But all you had to do was KEEP YOUR DICK IN YOUR PANTS. All the animus that should have gone to you went to Hillary. She *made* you. And you did her dirty.
