Ep. 0249: Chasing Ghosts w/Bill Buppert

For this DHP episode, CJ was delighted to be joined by retired Army officer, military contractor, and irregular warfare expert Bill Buppert. Long-time DHP listeners (& those who’ve gone through the back catalogue) may recall that Bill was the very first guest CJ ever had on the DHP, all the way back in 2015. A few months ago, Bill launched a podcast of his own, Chasing Ghosts, in which he covers the history, theory & practice of irregular warfare, and the shortcomings of its alleged antidote, counterinsurgency.

Join CJ & Bill as they discuss Bill’s background, his podcast, irregular warfare, the problems with counterinsurgency, and 3 of the greatest practitioners of irregular warfare in the 20th century – Michael Collins, T.E. Lawrence, & Paul Von Lettow-Vorbeck, who all operated c. 1916-1922.

Ep. 0248: “Led to Commit an Overt Act of War”: A Fun-Size DHP Pearl Harbor Day Special

Join CJ as he discusses the so-called “McCollum Memo” from the Office of Naval Intelligence, written by ONI officer Arthur McCollum & dated October 7th, 1940, which served as the blueprint for the FDR Administration’s strategy of deliberately provoking Japan, a strategy that culminated in the Pearl Harbor attack 14 months later.
