Crackpot History is about separating history from hysteria. Fields of Gold, Fields of Red looks back at the forces that shaped the Russo-Ukrainian War: the old empires, the broken promises, and the stories told to make sense of it all. Through a critique of Scott Horton’s book

Lets get a few things very clear. 1. Thanks for the plug. 2. The podcast isn't about debunking you. It's about debunking influencers peddling terrible history of which you are one. It's called Crackpot History, not Crackpot Darryl Cooper for a reason. 3. If you had listened to

This frames the miniseries finale I’m dropping soon in a whole new light. Why bother covering the history of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict if your stance is that one side should just convert and cease to be? Why is this targeted at the Jews as opposed to everyone else who

When Darryl Cooper released his Fear and Loathing in the New Jerusalem miniseries, he told everyone in those episodes that he wasn't going to tell the audience who was right or wrong in this conflict, that he wasn't looking to allocate blame, and that he was just going to provide

This isn’t a podcast about any one particular influencer. The very first episode of the podcast was about a conversation between Douglas Murray and Dave Smith on Rogan that inspired the idea behind this. When the critique of Fear and Loathing in the New Jerusalem is done, other

Darryl Cooper blocked me to avoid pushback on his arguments, telling of the history, and narrative building. I expect other influencers and pop historians will do the same.

In the last couple days Darryl Cooper blocked everyone who tried to defend Seth Dillon against his slander, then declared he blocks people for speech that he would respond to in real life with violence. Creepy guy.

No, they weren’t. You just didn’t like the content and conclusions because they didn’t fit your narrative and worldview. “Make up our own minds” and “just asking questions” are the new code words for historical revisionism. It weaponizes the language of the scientific method

Happy birthday to @PatrickBuchanan. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. The history books we use in schools are heavily biased with a post-WWII liberal bias. Buchanan lays it all out there, the messy, complicated truth, so that we can make up our own minds.
