Way back in the long-ago before-times (2016), CJ put out an episode in which he listed & talked about 25 of his favorite antiwar songs. A lot of listeners at the time really liked it. CJ has been a musician even longer than he’s been a historian, so any chance he gets to combine his love of music & history is one he’s happy to take. For this (2025) Armistice Day, he’s FINALLY going to be putting out a sequel – “25 More of CJ’s Favorite Antiwar Songs” – which will be exactly what it sounds like. But before he puts that new one out, he decided to reissue the original from 2016, since his audience was a lot smaller 9 years ago than it is now, so the majority of current DHP listeners have never heard this one. (Plus it’s been only available on the private Patreon supporters feed for the last several years.) Hopefully it’ll whet everyone’s appetite for the soon-to-be-released, long-awaited sequel! 😉 Join CJ from 2016 as he discusses 25 of his favorite antiwar songs from a variety of genres. Once you’re done listening to the episode, check out this Youtube playlist of the songs discussed made back in 2016 by a listener named Jon.) Like this episode?

America trying to Monday morning quarterback something they are responsible for, without taking any responsibility and continuing to fund, while supposedly wanting peace. There's nothing more absurd than US foreign policy.

I gave this guy a chance. listened to his podcast. He's a nutjob. He actually said: "10-7 happened because Israel has a liberal government and won't let their citizens carry weapons." That's one example. He's high on his own supply. Embarrassing that Scott here, only challenged him once or twice.

2025, Swamp The Drain 2.0. Listening to this: Trump hasn't changed one bit. But people still project hope and anger on the guy that says the opposite of what he said 48 hours ago, every day, and never actually does anything good, that lasts.

Amos Hochstein. Former IDF. Would be a traitor if it weren't already established: D.C. works for, "them."

I realize Scott is on LA radio, and he shapes his arguments to his audience. But Los Angeles is one of the last places Biden would bomb. Louisiana, maybe, but not LA

This is a great episode. It's all there. A key to understanding 2024, from Kiev to Tel Aviv.

Great interview! Great to hear someone like David come on the show. A prelude to the Kristol debate.

It's so incredibly interesting to listen to this in 2024. Trump did more in the long run for the loony left in four years as a foil than ever could have been accomplished with a Hillary presidency. What's even more remarkable, most of the MAGA right still don't see it now. "The left" secretly wants him back. They get motivated, the rest are pacified.

Wormwood, a docuseries on Netflix is important and related. one of the few things on Netflix worth watching.

Now, 2024, the miniseries that was good. fairly accurate, has been removed from Netflix and replaced with a horrible documentary that's very deceptive.

The comment about degenerate Israel being like state governments in the southern US in the 1850s did not go unnoticed. I know Scott is talking to a brainwashed leftist audience but that's an absurd comment. If anything, Lincoln equals Netanyahu. He would never say something so dumb in front of Ryan Dawson, Tom Woods, or Jim Bovard. We know better. So just skip it all together unless you want to do an episode opening that can of worms. Please stay on point.

This is perhaps the centerpiece flagship interview that I would share with the fox news friends on the subject of being anti-war. Excellent and crucial. As for Israel, it's tricky. Grant F. Smith, or a couple of select documentaries. Weird that getting "the right" to understand the nature of the Israeli government is such a hurdle. Especially in 2024 when the reality is so out in the open.

Cast Lead was '08-'09. Scott keeps saying 2014. Am I misunderstanding something?

This is the only time I heard Scott Horton say something retarded. He's out of the loop finishing a book. Bushnell was obviously mentally ill. We saw how a troubled person deals with the horror of what's happening in Palestine. This either/or conversation I saw on the Internet was disturbing. Both situations, the emolation and the genocide are both illness. it's not either/or or black and white. Aaron. fixed nothing. Only added a number to the Israeli death count. Keep it real.

Alcoholics Anonymous is arm and with the government. I understand that you two think it's different. But it's corrupted. As you read this there's a judge or two ordering a defendant into AA. It's not effective. There's a huge mythology built up around AA. Because of government involvement.
