Show Notes

There are many parallels between the 1933 “Business Plot” and recent events, so James Keys and Tunde Ogunlana discuss the historical record of the plot, the role Smedley Butler played in exposing it, and what can be learned from it about efforts to overthrow a democratic system from (01:23).  The guys also take a look at recent research about chronotypes which suggests that the extent to which someone may be an early bird or a night owl could be something that is genetic (34:58).
