Summary
5 - Drive @ 5 - Let’s end the week on a high note with Dr. Wilfred Reilly. They start with his new piece in National Review, ‘Not Everyone Who Lived The Day Before Yesterday Was Evil’. He details how standards change over time and to assume everyone in the past is evil because you’re judging them by our standards, instead of using historical context. Then they move to talking the changing curriculum in Florida, with the left calling it racist despite the teachings being completely factual according to historians and being used by every other state. These race stories are almost always revealed as a hoax, but the damage is already done by viewers who see it and internalize it. It’s not like there aren’t atrocities being committed today that will be judged harshly in the future, the difference being you don’t know they are atrocities in the moment. Our morality is not that great, and it's time we stop acting like it is. What does Wilfred think about Barbie? They then move to the fuss over climate change.
540 - The gang discusses movies, reusing intellectual property, and suggestions on what to watch.
