Just listened to this and I owe you an apology Darryl. I don’t especially care for Tucker Carlson and recently cancelled my paid subscription based on a kneejerk assumption I understood your personal politics. I’m ashamed to have fallen into the polarization that is our culture’s single most deadly flaw right now. It was sickeningly easy to shove aside all the years I’ve respected you and your work. We don’t always agree and sometimes I do question your tone. But you have constantly asked interesting questions and come to balanced, humane insights chasing the answers. Not for the first time you’ve kicked open a door to knowing myself better. You’re a good man Darryl Cooper. Re-sub’d
Bombshell information in JFK docs, declassified for the first time in March 2025. The President’s intelligence report on 11/20/1963. Unless I am misinterpreting this document, then this appears to be breaking information. https://substack.com/home/post/p-169968277
Darryl, many people argue your career itself looks like a textbook bait-and-switch — years of presenting as a normie-friendly “researcher,” cultivating trust, even producing a six-part Israel/Palestine series that was pro-Israel in effect, casting Jews as protagonists by opening with a Ukrainian pogrom and conditioning listeners to empathize with the Zionist project. Now, once it’s safe and lucrative, you’ve pivoted to anti-Israel, anti-war revisionism while leaning into the darker ideological company you’ve long kept with figures like Greg Johnson (Counter-Currents) and Thomas 777. How do you answer those who see this not as intellectual growth but as a calculated strategy to smuggle conspiratorial and authoritarian ideas into the mainstream?
Don’t be ridiculous. I didn’t pick up on that at all. He’s pretty sympathetic to both sides, and blames both sides. If anything, I felt like the exposition towards the end of the series made me feel more sympathy for the Palestinians. They’re the underdogs in the story.
Jeff, you should keep that same energy with Tucker Carlson. The guy is telling a lot of truth right now, and your status as a tribal political casual is leaving you in the dark. I used to be the same way, voted dem most of my life until I realized how insanely ignorant I was. But get tf out of your bubble and you'll learn a lot. To be clear, I don't consider myself a Republican, either. The system is two wings of the same bird, and the media on both sides lies constantly because they're beholden to money. Keep yourself open, you're on the right path to more clearly understanding the world we live in.
I've been watching Tucker Carlson since he created TCN/. He's an honest guy who's wrong on occasion - but he tells you about it, he doesn't hide from being wrong. I follow people who are honest.
The reason anti-zionsim gets conflated with antisemitism is because they intentionally make the conflation. And this behavior pre-dates Zionism. The reason it doesn't change is because of a lack of self reflection by that same group. Everyone else is supposed to tip toe around everything and profusely over explain themselves to avoid these ridiculous accusations. Enough is enough. Dawson is the man and what happened to him certainly doesn't do anything to help the narrative around that groups "control".
Tons of historical examples. Zionism is a 19th century creation. 200 years together is a great place to start and you can work your way backwards in time. Constantly present. Transcends people too as the Ashkenazi are a completely unrelated people (to the ancient Hebrews) who were converts from Khazaria.
That article never addresses the genetic aspect. And that is a big problem for the claim you want to make. I know the groypers have been trying to push this because the initial Khazar theory came from a Jewish intellectual. The problem is them being a different people.
Genetics already killed the Khazar myth — dozens of large-scale studies show Ashkenazim cluster between Levant and Southern Europe, with no Turkic/Caucasus signal. It’s settled science, the “Khazar theory” is internet cope.
Brunel supposedly founded 1 Mother Modeling in Kiev in 2013, and I’ve heard it speculated that not only was Kolomoisky an investor, but that they were trafficking women to Hunter Biden - the women in the pornographic videos on his laptop. I belive I heard this from Gonzalo Lira on Ryan’s show. Is there any evidence on this?
I admit that I am biased since I enjoy DC's work alot. He is a great narrator and he knows how to build suspense and create images when he tells history. Not so with these random podcasts, partly because his hosts are far below his nsights and narration skills.
I just don't enjoy them. So, he's barking up the wrong tree so to speak when he does these lame podcasts.
If you think that I am wrong suggest a few that you like. Thanks 👍
I get that he's doing them to reach a new audience, but I'm mostly in agreement with you. It gets repetitive because he has to retread ground we all know for folks that aren't read in.
I've made this joke before but I really do think in a few years there will be a Zionist on Piers Morgan saying that the Mossad has the "most moral pedophile blackmail rings in the world" and why are we only focusing on theirs.
This one is nuts. Listening to this dude is the like meeting Rorschach in real life. Finally someone goes deep on where did Epstein get the money, why did Wexner grant him power of attorney, etc...
I looked up the Robert Miller thing and the Bronfman estate sale is right in the Wikipedia, it's not even like these associations are behind closed doors. I don't think the elder Bronfmans had any love for the NXIUM guy though, but their money did keep that organization afloat.
Also, it is hard to listen to all the anti-Israel stuff and not wince a little because I feel the instinct to hear it as anti-semitism (even though I know you’re not anti-semitic and I don’t think Ryan is either), but I can see why the normies get turned off and relexively call it that. It’s kind of like I remember when I was in psych class in college in the 90s and we talked Charles Murray and the Bell Curve. You know that Charles Murray isn’t a White Supremacist but it’s so delicate that some people just can’t discuss it rationally without screaming that he’s a racist.
Have to agree. This one was all over the place. Thought they were going detailed on a more concrete theory and they're scattering all over North America from Seagrams, to Montreal, to Bob Kraft to other cults... In fact, MM and this guy seem to disagree on whether or not Epstein is connected to US intelligence, but nothing is fleshed out.
Jordan Peterson blocked me on X for pointing out that he added a whole class to his "university" about Churchill just because Daryll poked that bear. I've been to 2 of his lectures, read all his books, and watched pretty much all of his college era lectures going back to his cancelation. I did make a joke that he cant have an opinion on Churchill unless he's beeeen there. Which was a joke about Churchill Downs but come on man. Kinda seems like he hasn't properly integrated his shadow....
As bad as Gaza is (fully expect there will be land acknowledgements in the lobby of the Trump Gaza casino in a decade or two), the main issues for me will always be the pedophile blackmail network that has been running the US for about 30 years. Everything flows from that.
Hi Darryl, as you mentioned already multiple times (including the show notes of this exact episode) you are no friend of libertarianism. Now that you have your regular show with Scott Horton, apparently a libertarian, will you ever challenge him (or anyone else from this circle) about his ideology?
What issues do you have with Libertarians. I have been reading into it a lot and now kind of steering my beliefs towards them. What I find is a seductively appealing civil belief system. It wouldn't unless everyone was on board with it. Nevertheless, it seems perfect.
Libertarians get real close but have a blind spot when it comes to corporations obeying market forces. They will always cartelize, even if it goes against the rational self interest of that particular corporation. See Hoppe's solution to insurance, it's the best example of the cure being worse than the disease since communism.

Well said! And thoughtful thoughts! Thank you for expressing them.
Pretty long winded way to say “pray the gay away” works.
Darryl and Ryan,
That was amazing.
Please do a PART II. And Part III.
The reason anti-zionsim gets conflated with antisemitism is because they intentionally make the conflation. And this behavior pre-dates Zionism.

The behavior pre-dates Zionism? How did it work before Zionism?
Tons of historical examples. Zionism is a 19th century creation. 200 years together is a great place to start and you can work your way backwards in time. Constantly present. Transcends people too as the Ashkenazi are a completely unrelated people (to the ancient Hebrews) who were converts from Khazaria.
They have more of a relation to the Tartars than the twelve tribes. Kinda ironic when you look at how the Tartars acted during the Russian civil war
The Khazar theory’s been debunked for decades — genetics, history, linguistics all kill it. Low-IQ Dawson fans just parrot tropes they never read about. https://www.razibkhan.com/p/ashkenazi-jewish-genetics-a-match
That article never addresses the genetic aspect. And that is a big problem for the claim you want to make. I know the groypers have been trying to push this because the initial Khazar theory came from a Jewish intellectual. The problem is them being a different people.

Just do: " The German's War "
Please focus.
Thanks
Hey, I’ve learned a lot from the digressions that Darrell has engaged in. Don’t rush sound work. It will be worth the wait.
No doubt that Daryl does great work, when he sets his mind to it. But, he is the first to admit that he is easily distracted.
Said it before and I'll say it again. Let the dog hunt.
But in this instance, DC is barking up the wrong tree.
It's almost a bait and switch gambit. Go figure…
Why do you say he’s barking up the wrong tree?
Hi Elizabeth,
I admit that I am biased since I enjoy DC's work alot. He is a great narrator and he knows how to build suspense and create images when he tells history. Not so with these random podcasts, partly because his hosts are far below his nsights and narration skills.
I just don't enjoy them. So, he's barking up the wrong tree so to speak when he does these lame podcasts.

I get that he's doing them to reach a new audience, but I'm mostly in agreement with you. It gets repetitive because he has to retread ground we all know for folks that aren't read in.
Thank you for the response. Yes, I get your point. Did you see the video clip today, “Colonel Douglas Macgregor Shocks: 'The
Germans Did Not Start the Second World War'”
The Liberty Daily, on Rumble.
I've made this joke before but I really do think in a few years there will be a Zionist on Piers Morgan saying that the Mossad has the "most moral pedophile blackmail rings in the world" and why are we only focusing on theirs.
It does kind of start abruptly, mid-conversation, is that intended?
Thanks! Fixed!
Can't wait to dive into this one again.
This one is nuts. Listening to this dude is the like meeting Rorschach in real life. Finally someone goes deep on where did Epstein get the money, why did Wexner grant him power of attorney, etc...
I looked up the Robert Miller thing and the Bronfman estate sale is right in the Wikipedia, it's not even like these associations are behind closed doors. I don't think the elder Bronfmans had any love for the NXIUM guy though, but their money did keep that organization afloat.

That's on those delicate flowers, not us. Feelings should never take precedence over truth.
Ryan must’ve interrupted at least 100 times during this interview. Very grating and hard to listen to. Thank you though Darryl, lots of good info
Have to agree. This one was all over the place. Thought they were going detailed on a more concrete theory and they're scattering all over North America from Seagrams, to Montreal, to Bob Kraft to other cults... In fact, MM and this guy seem to disagree on whether or not Epstein is connected to US intelligence, but nothing is fleshed out.
Tbf nested operations like this require a lot of bouncing around.
yeah i dont really know wtf i just listened to.
Darrell, you handled it graciously. The interruptions were well made up for by the content of the thoughts that he provided. None of us are perfect.
This showed up on my podcast feed and then disappeared. Substack app also says “cannot load audio file”
Per Twitter, there was an editing issue that Darryl is fixing before re-uploading.
I can’t load the file either.
And another day without Enemy: the German war
Jordan Peterson blocked me on X for pointing out that he added a whole class to his "university" about Churchill just because Daryll poked that bear.

Starting with Gaza is appropriate. It's hard to care about any other issue when that's going on.
As bad as Gaza is (fully expect there will be land acknowledgements in the lobby of the Trump Gaza casino in a decade or two), the main issues for me will always be the pedophile blackmail network that has been running the US for about 30 years. Everything flows from that.

How come we didn't expand on Trump's relationship with Epstein when it was brought up?
