The Subjective Professor Podcast

Prof of History Matthew Garrett settled with his lawsuit with his college for 2.4 million fiat dollars. It's a wonderful thing and hopefully a sign that we are nearing Peak Woke.  I am facing a similar situation; however, it is being pursued as a simple "breach of contract" case. I briefly go over his case and also discuss my own situation and offer some lessons learned through the process. 

This episode is 30 minutes, sorry. But it is because I forced myself to listen to the entire conversation between Musk and Trump. I have to admit, I wasn't listening in the way I would listen to a lecture about which I would later be tested. I wanted to highlight most of the topics discussed and just offer some subjective thoughts when they took a less desirable direction in the conversation.  Nev...

Free speech is protected in our Constitution. Thankfully I went to school when many of my teachers understood the importance of speaking one's mind. For this reason, I simply cannot understand the desire of ordinary citizens to restrict speech in any way. Why one would want to protect speech as an employee of the state, is quite simple. Otherwise, citizens everywhere must remember just how importa...

It's Subjective Preacher Day and this episode is the sermon I preached today in church.  "All things" could be difficult to understand, surely it can't mean including the bad things? And if bad things are included, how do I know which things are bad? What about that karma thing? Does it ever end and when do I know I have the promised good thing? Hopefully, I clear this up simply and without contra...

It seems that few people are truly anti-war because they believe in the myth of US military superiority. I am sure that there are some strong aspects of the military but that's not what I'm referring to. I want to focus on the ability of the US to "win" a war. It's obviously a problematic belief… but why is it? The reality of war and history are different from the entertainment of movies. We shoul...

Princess Bride fans will hopefully recognize the nod to that movie, but "democracy" is all the rage today. Thus, it must be something good and virtuous. But by the prevailing illogic, to be opposed to this is to be somehow evil, perhaps even a fascist.  Well, as it turns out, the democracy that people keep yammering on about is the democracy of Marx. I quote from the Communist Manifesto. It is, as...

Today's episode is my attempt to try to make sense of ... whatever THIS is in the world today. I understand what people mean by "simulation" now. If you are on X at all, then you can see that the videos of war in Ukr have been replaced with unbelievable videos out of the Middle East and England. Where is the Rule of Law, especially in England that was proud of their legal tradition? Does the FED h...

I watched Guy Ritchie's The Covenant last night with the wife after putting off watching it for weeks. I knew it was going to be a good movie, but I also knew that it would make me have negative thoughts and probably rant. Though it did kind of have an upbeat ending, it was tragic. My mantra remains true: A good war movie is an anti-war movie.

I talk about Astroturf in this episode, not artificial grass but the phenomenon of deceiving people through information manipulation. I have explained several times why information and the evaluation of information is subjective, so how does one navigate the sea of information much of which is potentially extremely subjective? This is important to discuss in the context of Truth. Is there a Truth...

We will know if the teaching of God is true by striving to live by those words. How do we know if we got it right? How do we know we got it wrong? How do we know we are just being stubborn in our opinions?  So many questions, so little time. I tried to explain how we can know this and live a life full of his grace. Peace.

I wanted to do an episode on monopolies and competition and decided to work in Olympic boxing without having to go into the gory details. In other words, I want to examine some of the root issues when it comes to controversial phenomenon such as women's boxing.  I personally, don't enjoy watching boxing, especially women's boxing, but how can society move forward fairly on the matter? Some subject...

You probably heard about the re-branding of Kamala. It bothers some people while other people get really defensive. So... is she black?  Sure, why not. What are we really discussing though? What is this phenomenon of re-branding or re-imaging or re-creation? Should it be banned? I share some subjective thoughts on the matter and offer a different question that should be asked instead.

Talking about a few issues I have ignored. I keep seeing others talking about these topics, I thought I would share my 2 cents. The recreation of the Last Supper at the Olympics opening ceremonies in France, Weird as a talking point and the election in Venezuela.

An interesting phenomenon is when people who thought they had points in common all of a sudden turn against each other, violently. I share some subjective thoughts on how it might have started and concluded. You are free to disagree. Really, this is an episode about living superficially vs thoughtfully. This is a huge topic, but I tried to lay out some of the basic reference points. It's always sm...

A little late today, I had a family function. Apologies. Well... in an attempt to bring something different to the table, I wanted to talk about DEI MY WAY, and compare it to nepotism. They are similar in many ways. But is it a big deal? Should they concern us? Yes and No. Hope it is food for thought.

Sorry it's a bit long... But that's because there was so much to say! If you been watching the news, then you know where this is coming from and what caused me to settle on this passage. The world is getting crazy with the lies and deception! What is a believer to do in this sea of lies? How do we even know what is a lie and if we did find a lie, what do we do? This is tricky especially since this...

One almost feels obligated to discuss the Dems presidential candidate, so, here it is. It is amazing how the internet is being scrubbed in her favor; the spin makes my head dizzy. Though her supporters are overjoyed she's not a Biden, many people do not consider the impression projected to others in other countries. It is embarrassing, maybe it's just me. And finally, there's a lot of lying going...

The Leader of Israel is here, and he spoke to congress. It is an interesting spectacle considering the supposed anti-foreign influence attitude in this country. What about all those protests? What about the never-ending wars? What about the debt? What about the coming sovereign debt crisis? These issues are all related, of course. Some thoughts from yours truly.

What is the difference between Conspiracy theories in and outside of the University? hmm. Why are conspiracy theories which develop outside of the wall of the university looked down on so relentlessly? There's a lot of snobbery out there. And... John Cena started following me on X. haha. I think it was an accident, but I'll take it! I watched "It's John Cena!" meme videos for a good 15 minutes. 

I saw a meme which inspired me to do this podcast with this topic. It's a summary because I am trying to keep episodes to 20 minutes.  I understand the impulse to require English as a condition for life in America, but it is not a path that will have the best outcomes. Aside from the legislative aspect of that requirement, it ignores what life in America is supposed to be about. This type of pheno...

Things are happening so quickly, it's hard to decide what to discuss. Some updates about the Trump unalive attempt and some thoughts on the aftermath if the attempt was successful, Biden's or the Bidens bowing out of the election, the Left's problem with projection but also how you can use it to protect yourself, and has DT learned any lessons? Buckle up, Spanky; the ride is just beginning.

Jesus Time. While watching the news and following the updates on the attempted assassination, I read this verse. That's nice that righteousness exalts a nation, but what is righteousness, and do we have to make the US a theocracy, that is, a nation governed by the "Christian" God. We definitely do not want to continue in sin and then have to suffer God's condemnation. Peace to you all today and th...

It's getting thick with conspiracy theories out here. I am making my fair share of them but will keep them to myself and my family for now. It all seems too much for it to be a simple "lone gunman" story.  There's a lot of uncertainty as a result and it just so happens that my wife and I started financing our end-of-life rituals (funeral and burials). Weird? Maybe, but it stands in contrast with a...

Did you miss me? My laptop died so I had to order a new computer, a desktop. Now, I'm back. Several topics I wanted to cover subjectively... Some considerations of the attempted assassination, questioning the idea of conspiracy, the "reverse" canceling we are witnessing against those with TDS, and finally DEI.  

Jesus Time. I ran out of time, so I didn't mention it, but some people would say that Love IS delusional. I would not say that about the Love of God. So, what is the distinction of the Love of God from the love of the world? And how does that love become victorious over the delusions of the world? As so many people today are delusional... perhaps these thoughts would help in sorting it all out.
