The pyramids were underwater
I love thinking about the pyramids and how they were built (and by whom). Nobody actually knows. And I absolutely don't believe the mainstream narrative.Roger Cunningham, AKA the The Ethical Skeptic, has been researching this for a long time, and makes the following arguments:the established timeline is wrong by thousands of years;they were built by advanced people;the truth is being covered up; andthe pyramids ended up underwater for centuries, following a cataclysmic event.How can you not find that fascinating?
Africa's high-speed trains nobody knows about
PD Lawton was on my podcast a few days ago, chatting about violence against Christians in Nigeria. Her knowledge of Africa is so good that I invited her back to discuss a topic nobody knows about: a high-speed railway network being built across Africa.One reason nobody knows about it is that it's part of the Belt and Road Initiative (which is Chinese), and Western media doesn't like that. Another reason is that it's an uplifting, positive story, and people tend to consume negativity and doom-scroll.📺 The video is on YouTube.

Todd Hayen is a psychotherapist who has been a regular on my podcast for years. We mostly riff about abstract nonsense, but I enjoy it, which is why he is a regular.His Substack is called Shrew Views.This time, we chatted about gay marriage and whether or not AI is an existential threat.
Instead of calling people idiots, we must show empathy
We're in an information war. In fact, we're in multiple information wars at once — a helpful term for it is 'poly-war'. In other words, we're being attacked from many sides: health, mental, and physical.It's why I do what I do — to fit the many puzzle pieces together, try to see the bigger picture, and figure out what's true.UK Column's Mike Robinson and Charles Malet joined me for our weekly banter, where we threw around ideas on how to effectively fight all these wars.
Nietzsche hated God but was obsessed with Him
Chris Waldburger wrote a book in which he argues that Nietzsche and Christianity can be reconciled, and that Nietzsche's antagonism towards the faith is far more complex than the cartoon version of "God is dead.It's kinda ironic.Nietzsche claimed he was an atheist, yet spoke about God more than any Christian.
