Pure Jewish Anger by Daniel Clarke-Sennet I'm reading it for you. I suggest you go read it again yourself. on Substack. Every single Western Useful Idiot who hates Jews and loves Hamas can choose which rear cheek to kiss.
Written words don't suffice. We need to call out these evil people with at least as much energy as they put into lying about Israel defending itself from terrorists. My response to the Jew Hater Francesca Albanese at the Jew Hating United Nations takes under six minutes to convey. Brevity is the soul of clear-eyed morality. Truth is always one of the first casualties of any war but this insanity in which the global Left in combination with Islamist death cultists has managed to spin the most biz...
Jewish scholars - both religious and secular - discuss in depth the implications of the pagan prophet Balaam's description of the Jewish people: From the peaks of rocks I see them, From the heights I gaze upon them. This is a people who dwell alone, Not reckoning themselves one of the nations. (Num. 23:9) In this season of Pesach, I read the essay written by Rabbi Jonathan Lord Sacks of Blessed Memory, in which he discusses the potential meanings of the People that dwells alone. Not even 80 year...
Civic engagement is a prerequisite if we, the citizens, want to enjoy competent public governance. Ben Franklin warned us that we'd have this Constitutional government if we could keep it. Make no mistake: there are strong Leftist activists whose sole goal in life is to destroy our Western Civilization based in individual rights and responsibilities. They adore Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea and the Chinese Communists' totalitarian control of the population and want to bring that fun misery here t...
Today's episode is the epitome of the #Enlightentainment that @MessyTimes was founded to provide in ample portions and frequent doses. Who doesn't love a prurient view into the lives of evil men? Half of Netflix and Hollywood is all about drug lords and mobsters. Ever wonder how much of what you see is fiction and if there is any fact at all? Brian Dennard spent years in clandestine service to the US and visits the Messy Times studios to discuss the early days in the 1970s when the American gove...
Kurt Wuckert, Jr., Chief Bitcoin Historian visits the beachside studios of @MessyTimes to talk about #Bitcoin and all its implications. Every 210,000 coins or roughly four years, the block reward of Bitcoin is cut in half. Every infrastructure player in Bitcoin has to find ways to make money on transaction volume instead of the block reward. The bootstrapping subsidy was designed to help the Bitcoin ecosystem develop to the point where a natural economy would take hold. Fifteen years in, the Bit...
The evil Gazan Government still holds Israeli hostages - both alive in perpetual terror as well as the rotting corpses of murdered Jews - 138 days after their rape, torture and murder spree of October 7th.Samantha has a robust social media following on Instagram, where she is a consistent voice of reason and advocacy for the safety of Jews in hostile world: https://www.instagram.com/samanthaettus/ What everyone needs to bear in mind is that none of the idiots - whether highly educated or draggin...
Find out why Stephen Fry’s Alternative Christmas Message landed so well this year, on a channel opposite King Charles’s chat to the Kingdom. Richard Bermitz has a long and storied career in UK sport advertising. Join us for a fascinating conversation about the history of the business of sport in the UK and then Europe more broadly. In addition to getting a crash course in the dynamics of sporting clubs, fan loyalty and the commercial reality underpinning your favourite teams, Messy Times fans se...
Greg Ward has a tremendous depth of experience in the things that matter most: music and creative coding. He joined our Glittering Host in the Messy Times Studios for a discussion about the true power of blockchain technology. The original Bitcoin as described in Satoshi's white paper is all about radical economic inclusiveness. The strong uses cases of peer-to-peer micropayments along with the power of immutability to strengthen cyber security are some of the finest applications of free human e...
We are living in difficult times, what the glitterati call Messy Times. Sadly, it is looking very likely that we're going to look back on this period in history as being relatively peaceful compared to what is coming down the track at us. Tune in as Robert Patrick and our Enlightentaining Host ponder the major issues of today, including the horrendous eruption of anti-Jewish hatred in America and Europe "because" evil terrorists of Hamas murdered 1,400 innocent, unarmed people and took another 2...
Imagine a government plan designed to achieve these wonderful goals: 1. Make electricity SIX TIMES MORE EXPENSIVE. 2. Destroy America's security by removing our radar and missile systems' ability to see over the horizon to detect incoming threats. 3. Deprive people of healthy seafood or at least make it three times as expensive. 4. Take American tax dollars and give them to Scandinavian countries' pension funds for the long-term benefit of Scandinavian companies and workers. 5. Oh, and kill lots...
Fellow Native New Yorker, now proud resident of the Last Free State in America, Florida, Andrew Gutmann joins us in the @MessyTimes studios for a wide-ranging but focused conversation about the need to root out the insidious evil of Marxism in American life. He achieved accidental fame for penning a letter of protest to his daughter's school in New York City - a private school called Brearley which for decades was a beacon of educational excellence, but during the Wuhan Hysteria and the BLM Summ...
In today's episode of Bizarre Leftist Hypocrisy, we find the doyens of the environmental movement so befuddled that they're swearing allegiance to oceanic wind farms which are killing whales by the dozens. David Blackmon came on the show as a follow up to the interview he did with Meghan Lapp, Fisheries Liaison for Seafreeze Shoreside. I will not steal the thunder from that interview, which I urge you to watch at The Energy Question #65 but will summarize her findings to let all the ocean- and w...
I had the pleasure of meeting Zach Resnick at the London Blockchain Conference earlier this year. Now that we're both back in the Western Hemisphere, Zach paid a visit to the @MessyTimes studios for a deep dive into his career as an entrepreneur and how his journey has been interwoven with blockchain technology, most recently #BSV, or Bitcoin Satoshi Vision, the bitcoin protocol based on the original white paper, versus #BTC which has diverged from that original vision in myriad ways. Tune in fo...
David Blackmon joined us in the studios for a wide-ranging discussion on the virtues of affordable energy, debating whether insanity or perfidy motivate Apocalyptic Climate Cultists and the general messy madness of our age. David knows of what he speaks - having deep expertise and long experience in the oil & gas industry. For a fun pre-episode game, try to guess whether our Brilliant Guest or your Glittering Host has more biting calumny to heap on the ridiculous #ESG fraud which has destroy...
Messy Times is focused on making the American military culture and its people available to a wider audience. Only 7% of Americans are either in the military or family members of our all-volunteer force. Our Enlightentaining Host is privileged to serve on the Board of Directors for the Combat Control Foundation . Tom DeSchane had a 28-year career in Combat Control, retiring as a Chief Master Sergeant, after entering the Air Force for four years to pay for college. He joins us in the studios to gi...
Jack Pitts and I shared a stage at the London Blockchain Conference. We were mesmerizing. For those unfortunate souls who missed the big event, we bring you this discussion. He is the founder of SLictionary , a brilliant, blockchain-enabled Web 3.0 version of the processes which created the Oxford English Dictionary. A self-learning dictionary which grows in accuracy and comprehensiveness the richer the user-contributed corpus grows is just the shot in the arm the English etymological industry n...
We are delighted to be joined in the @MessyTimes studios by Connor Matthews ( @TheControllerMMA ) who shared with us a bit about his journey involving an early interest in martial arts, to MMA (mixed martial arts) to accidentally signing up for the Air Force's Special Operations branch after first hearing what the SEALs had to say about a career in the Navy. Your Enlightentaining Host is honored to serve our military veterans as a Board Member of the @CombatControlFoundation. One of the perquisi...
Ray Nayler wrote a great novel, The Mountain in the Sea. The Enlightentaining Host of @MessyTimes was so delighted by the book that he wrote a book review and reached out to Ray to invite him for a visit to the studios. The conversation that follows is the result of Ray's saying yes to that invitation. Ray is a deep thinker with wide-ranging international experience and a persistent curiosity which drives him to learn more and to express what he learns in his writing. Beyond or as part of his wr...
We are delighted to have Dr. Ken Dekleva join us for a deep and wide-ranging conversation across his areas of expertise. Ken covers a lot of intellectual and practical ground in his second visit to the studios . A prolific author as well as a Senior Fellow at the George H.W. Bush Center for U.S.-China Relations , Ken's experience spans the globe. His deep experience is not only represented in historical knowledge, but directly in current international affairs and innovations in healthcare, not o...
Florida is already the Last Free State in America. Because of that, it is attracting talent from all over the other 49, which is making it a bastion of free market innovation. It's obviously the best place to be, which is why @MessyTimes would never consider broadcasting from anywhere else. Aside from hosting rampant innovation in Enlightentainment, up and down the peninsula, many towns have become blockchain and tech boom towns. Charles Hwang shares how he became involved in Bitcoin (BTC), what...
China wants the world to accept the renminbi as a reserve currency. What are their reasons for suggesting an alternative to the US Dollar? Was Bretton Woods a mistake? Is Purchasing Power Parity a reasonable way to value a currency? Money is international but a currency is national; how many people care about that distinction? Has anyone ever gotten a date by using monetary theory as a pickup line? Is the paradigm of a "cold war" drawn from the Soviet-American 20th century headbutting a useful f...
It's a weird thing about history. One can visit, say, ancient European city centers and marvel at the architecture, in full knowledge of horrific war crimes and atrocities committed on the very streets one is currently strolling on, nibbling pastries and snapping selfies. All that happened a long time ago, so - to steal a line - at this point, what difference does it make that babies were snatched from their mothers' arms and dashed to the pavement right here where I'm dropping powdered sugar on...
City of London politician Mark Wheatley revisits the @MessyTimes studios for a brisk chat about The Coronation, current Great Power competition and to sort out who is lying to whom the most in the jockeying for geopolitical domination. Pomp! A really old throne! An MP wielding an impressive sword for hours with nary a wobble! Geopolitical considerations! Snubs and divisions! The manipulation of the Sacred! Golden bracelets that strike fear into politicians' souls! Tune in! We're even broadcastin...
Statistically normal people are exhausted and bored by the bizarre linguistic preoccupations of a tiny segment of the population, and are baffled by the weird insistence of the chattering classes that they "must" learn 65 new "pronouns" and 97 new "genders." This particular brand of neo-Marxist madness contributes directly to our decidedly Messy Times. In line with the weaponization of language for political control, the government in a wild-eyed, frenzied assault on the First Amendment created ...
Many early use cases of a technology in hindsight look pretty silly. In 2000, Seventeen "dot coms" spent millions on ads for Super Bowl XXXIV - more web-based companies than have booked ads in the intervening twenty years. Similarly with "blockchain" which I take a delightful hour to kick around with my guest Professor Michael Mainelli, Chairman of @ZYenGroup . Whenever a tech term becomes marketing faerie dust, look out! #Blockchain and #BTC (which some call #Bitcoin) come under our strict scru...
We are delighted to be joined in the @MessyTimes studios for a philosophical and sociological deep dive seen from the point of view of an American #millennial. Justyna Czekaj is a credit to her generation, an accomplished, educated and thoughtful critic of the foibles which contributed so strongly to the madness we've lived with for going on three years. Join us for a hearty and wide-ranging discussion. We touch on such minor topics as the rapid decay of the formerly great United States, to the ...
Americans are obligated to provide all the assistance we can to our combat #veterans and their families. All who serve in our military deserve our gratitude and appreciation. We owe an especial debt to the members of our Special Operations teams, who go above and beyond the normal risks associated with war. Those individuals with the drive and commitment who volunteer for the hardships and augmented risks of Special Operations are what differentiates the American military. Their enhanced trainin...
Messy Times and the Brownstone Institute were both created to fight back against the tsunami of lies about the Wuhan Hysteria. The Administrative State has not ceased in its Orwellian efforts to make everyone mouth insane lies. The key to a complete governmental takeover of power is when a populace has been so beaten, bored and just wearied into mouthing the absurdities, if that is the "pass" to living a normal life. Lest anyone think that Elon Musk buying Twitter put an end to the bizarrely tig...
Most people know the solar calendar has ticked over to 2023. The cognoscenti are aware that a far more important milestone has been reached - the start of the 4th season of MessyTimes and all the glitteringly brilliant #enlightentainment that entails! Join #CraigWright and our Glittering Host for a rollicking ride starting with the ignominious and predicted collapse of #FTX and the lying fraud #SBF and ending with a hard binary choice between two competing philosophical systems of deliberate exi...
