0:00.0	This is the Unregistered Podcast, and I'm Thaddeus Russell.
0:07.2	This is a show about ideas, people, and behaviors that are considered inappropriate, out of bounds, or beyond the pale.
0:15.5	The things you're not supposed to talk about if you're a schoolteacher, a college professor, a businessman, a politician, a parent, a neighbor, or even a podcast host. These are the things you're not supposed to say or even think if you're a good liberal, a good conservative, or a good citizen. Each week, I'll interview a person who has something bad to say.
0:40.2	They might be a journalist or a professor, they might be a porn star or a drug dealer.
0:45.3	They might just be an ordinary person with an ordinary job who doesn't care about the rules of
0:50.7	polite society. I'm not interested in breaking the rules just to be a troublemaker.
0:56.1	I'm interested in people who break the rules of conventional thought
0:59.5	and to expand the scope of what is possible to say in our society.
1:04.1	I'm interested in people who make me think.
1:09.6	Unregistered is mostly supported by listeners.
1:12.8	If you'd like to support the show and become a member of the unregistered community,
1:17.0	you can join the Unregistered Underground at unregistered underground.com.
1:22.5	Members of the Underground receive access to my private AMA sessions and to our private Facebook group, as well as discounts
1:29.4	on Renegade University courses and events. Again, to support the show and join the unregistered
1:35.1	community, go to unregistered underground.com. We also have two special Renegade University
1:41.5	weekend events coming up. One is in Los Angeles, the weekend of February
1:45.9	1st to the 3rd, and the second is in Washington, D.C., and that's March 15th to the 17th. For more
1:53.1	information, and to sign up for the Renegade University special weekends with me in Los Angeles
1:58.3	and Washington, D.C., go to Thaddeus Russell.com slash courses.
2:03.4	It has come to the point where advocating for free speech qualifies you for being an
2:09.3	unregistered guest. And I can safely attest that my guest this week, by advocating for free
2:14.8	speech and academic freedom on college campuses, is saying things you're not allowed to say, things that are beyond the pale.
