I only read for my very niche history podcast. I don’t have time to read these many tomes and books and essays y’all talk about. So I am so thankful for y’all’s insight into these classic works. Great episode!

For our listeners_

Calvin Coolidge was influenced by philosophy professor Charles Edward Garman, a congressional mystic who had a neo-Hegelian philosophy. Is that Hegel guy you mention the same one that professor Garman referred to?

As a listener my English teacher said Timothy Leary was a leprechaun. As a listener Vietnam Vets could get job pumping gas. As a listener I was the town drunk of Pittsburgh somewhere in time.

As a listener, sometimes I get so full of it I want to barf and not eat it again.

You might want to reach out to @kruptos to do more on Ellul. He might be available for discussions on it. He just did one with Charles Haywood.

He has done extensive summaries and deep-dive posts/podcasts on numerous Ellul works. Here is an example.
