My father, a Mechanical/Electrical Engineer, was a 2LT in the Signal Corps in 1945. Twice he was assigned as Defense Council, won acquittal in both cases. Thus ended his military legal career.
This is a ridiculously hyper-specific topic to comment on, but that “peckerwood” discussion sent me. I’m black, and my 50-year-old dad (important note: he’s country as hell) still uses peckerwood, and I've also met some other black people that use it too (important note: also country as hell). So the legend lives on. But for a white supremacist group to call themselves that, though? It’s um…very modern of them to try to reclaim a slur? I'm going to be cackling about this for years.
Joe have you considered removing these episodes due to the author’s complaint?
Hey, I'm a Captain and I love your show l, so there's at least two of us that will put up with your bullshit
Between this and Behind the Bastards I’m binging this stuff around 8 hours a day and the thing that breaks me out of the sadness is that 20% of the time I’m like “Wait! I’m related to that fucking guy!” It’s a bit of a trip to find out my family is even worse than I thought.
2 hour episodes r the best
"Use this to plug ur show" like I'm not listening to Knowledge fight right now. Great episodes
So I started knowledge fight a few weeks back and as someone who binges it at work I agree it definitely deals some damage.
