Dr Koontz and Rev Fisk talk about the study of economics, the over reliance on expert authorities, what is the stock market, what lead to the Great Depression and what was done to correct it, why people fail to understand perennial problems, and the importance of seeing life in a long timeframe.

A Brief History of Power
Every week Dr. Adam Koontz and Rev. Jonathan Fisk check their privilege against the backdrop of the wide and varied annals of history. You don‘t have to believe the Babel about the sons of Noah being a rosetta for understanding the postmodern global politic to agree that an intellectual dark web exists because history always rhymes, no matter what you try to do about it. You might not save the world by listening, citizen, but that doesn‘t mean you won‘t save someone. Because knowing is only the first half of the battle.
