About

The Dangerous History Podcast

“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable, and so, if he is romantic, he tries to change it. And even if he is not romantic personally he is very apt to spread discontent among those who are.” – H.L. Mencken

The Dangerous History Podcast is dedicated to sharing history that the Establishment would rather you NOT know, so you can learn the past and thereby better understand the present & prepare for the future.

CJ Killmer

Born and raised a Florida Man, CJ Killmer holds Bachelor’s & Master’s degrees in history. He taught college history for 16 years, during which time he taught classes in US History, World History, Western Civilization and Florida History.

In the summer 2014, with basically no budget, little technical know-how, & zero online content-creation experience (he didn’t even own a smart phone or have any social media accounts prior to 2014!), he somehow managed to start the Dangerous History Podcast as a side-project to serve as an outlet for some of his more radical takes & deep dives on history topics that didn’t always fit into the intro-level survey courses he was teaching at the time.

CJ has been a smartass, iconoclast, and a cynical questioner & critic of authority since he was a kid. Naturally, these attitudes have influenced his take on history, which CJ often summarizes as a combination of George Carlin & Murray Rothbard.

If you’ve been looking for a history podcast that combines deep dives & radical takes, and that DOESN’T just repeat the same Establishment propaganda narratives you’ve been bombarded with since elementary school, you’ve come to the right place!
