Very Bad Philosophers

A rental-car bound Jonah invites his research assistant Nick Pompella onto the show from the reclusive Zoom cave in which Nick usually resides — or in this case, the dankness of Jonah’s basement as Nick housesits. Topping the docket today is a discussion of “whiteness,” along with verbal distress over how to pronounce “Parler” and the chilling acknowledgment that the government is the only entity that can legally kill you. Show Notes: -Barton Fink -Page about “Whiteness” from the NMAAHC -Pew data on church attendance by race/ethnicity -Michael Burleigh’s The Third Reich -Fukuyama’s Origins of Political Order -Slavoj Žižek -David Skarbek on the Remnant -The article Nick found about Slack channels as the new water coolers -David French’s hosting of the Remnant earlier this week -Wednesday’s G-File, written from Alaska
