The Bryan Hyde Show hour two 8-7-2020

• One of the surest ways to know that you're being gas-lighted is when the simple meaning of words begins to change. Doug Casey gives some highly relevant examples of what this looks like today as our language becomes corrupted and distorted.
• History wasn't exactly my favorite subject when I was in school. I'm probably not alone in that assessment. Nevertheless, I've come to see how essential it is to have a basic understanding of how we got here from there. Annie Holmquist reports that there's a new movement afoot that seeks to abolish teaching history in the classroom. That doesn't sound good.
• The smartest people I know are the ones who can glean lessons from experiences that might go over the heads of most of us. Gary Arnell shares an example of how a neighbor kid helped him fix his lawnmower and opened his eyes to an educational dilemma.
• It's ironic that the very day that a U.S. Appeals Court upheld the dismissal of the case against the Bundys, Ammon had a box truck full of watermelons confiscated from him and was threatened with arrest in Utah. I'm more convinced than ever that the state--not the Bundy Family--is the biggest troublemaker around.
