Dr Koontz and Rev Fisk open the show by talking about outlaws and untouchables living outside societal lines, and move into a discussion of media influence on public opinion of war. They talk about James Burnham's theory of managerial revolution and changes in power brought in by the world wars, the beginning of the federal reserve act, and the illusion of civilization without fathers.

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.
