A few weeks ago, CJ FINALLY won the War of Art when it came to starting a second podcast, something he’s been seriously thinking about & planning for over 5 years.
The podcast is called Archetopical, and has its own separate podcast feed from the DHP. You can find it here, or search for it wherever you consume your audio podcasts. (And if you can’t find it on your favorite podcatcher, shoot CJ an email to let him know where you can’t find it & he’ll try to rectify that.)
CJ’s first Archetopical episode (numbered episode zero) was a basic introduction episode. This one is episode 1, in which CJ explains and analyzes the Hero’s Journey monomyth and associated archetypes, as popularized by people like Joseph Campbell & Christopher Vogler. It is being shared on the DHP feed as well in order to let the DHP audience know about it & get a taste of it. Enjoy!

In 1919, the Supreme Court of the United States voted unanimously to uphold the conviction of Socialist Party activists whose only crime was distributing a pamphlet critical of conscription during American participation in the First World War, even though the pamphlet did not advocate any lawbreaking — not even civil disobedience.

What if I told you that we can connect Woodrow Wilson to the Nazis in a single degree of separation?
No, this is not the zillionth illustration of Godwin’s Law that you’ve seen this week; it is simply little-known historical fact.
In this dose of Dangerous History, we’ll talk about the little-known eugenicist psychiatrist who drafted the eugenics sterilization bill that Woodrow Wilson signed into law in 1911 (during his brief tenure as Governor of New Jersey), and who later collaborated with the Nazis who ran the notorious Buchenwald concentration camp three decades later.
Join CJ as he discusses the life and career of Dr. Edwin Katzen-Ellenbogen, and the historical context in which they occurred.

This installment in the Woodrow Wilson series covers the period of the Wilson presidency from the summer of 1914 through the end of that year, when he said he wanted to keep the US neutral & out of the war, & still seemed to at least kinda mean it.
(*Apologies for the lackluster audio quality in some of the middle segments – I accidentally used my laptop’s crummy integral mic instead of my usual podcasting mic for those.)
