Just throwing this out there. Highly Respected University... Complete with a thorough reading list, and courses going over American history and philosophy. I know there are many past episodes that would qualify for the curriculum, but starting from the beginning and working through the major beats of America would be filling a gigantic void. And don't tell me you wouldn't get a kick out of playing the role of a heckling professor Scott... you're laughing about it right now, I know it. In all seriousness, it needs to be done. Without doxxing, I've done professional video for years now. You have some capable talent willing to help with things you need.

It may be done someday! A lot of the IQ supplements constitute that in part. A more formal series is a good idea.

A formal series would be huge. It’s really needed. But a substack article going through a reading list would be a great interim.

@mattglassman stated below to Maryter Made on Twitter and wonder if you have a different take. Maybe it doesnt change the fact about knowing the basic facts about the civil war. Be interesting so see a Twitter space or podcast on the topic with Matt. Good to engage these guys.

Scott! Three questions: 1. What are your thoughts on the band Muse? 2. Will you ever do an IQ supplement on the impeachment of Andrew Johnson? 3. Will you ever do a discussion on the Mormons?
