Dr Koontz and Rev Fisk talk about materialism in the human heart which overestimates the visible, Carroll Quigley's incomplete view of WWII, why various nations entered the war, the origin of the moniker "Greatest Generation", technologies that affected the war, and why the narrative of America's intrinsic virtue distorts our understanding.

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.
