BHoP#102 Gods of California

July 21, 2022 ·

Dr Koontz and Rev Fisk continue discussing the Okies and the history of agriculture in California, the invention of agribusiness, what sets the Yankees apart from the rest of America and why immigrant groups are more interested in themselves than the general population, why intellectual causes always fracture, national vs global framing, the need for personal knowledge to change minds, and the migrant populations that work California farms.

BHoP#012 OCCUPY Ben Shapiro and Ice Chips

October 28, 2020 ·

Dr Koontz and Rev Fisk answer a couple of listener emails. They discuss the disconnect between hearing about California and living in what feels like an entirely different place, the history of Occupy Wall Street and who the One Percent are, the benefits of belonging to a distinct group, and why Ben Shapiro doesn’t understand Trump.
