Hands-down, one of the best podcast out there, completely changed my view on the Israel, Palestine conflict. Every kid in school should be taught this stuff.

Darryl has had a significant influence on my perspective on the past. I am tremendously grateful for this outstanding show. The quality is consistently impressive and his courage in discussing hard topics and reaching unpopular conclusions from looking at the data is to be commended.

Darryl is so meticulous in his research and desire to tell an unbiased rendition of facts in an entertaining captivating way. I have truly enjoyed learning more about history listening to his various treatise length episodes. It’s quite obvious that the uninformed haters are out in force because in their mind he spoke blasphemy during his Tucker interview. I’d suggest they spend some time listening to his careful well researched episodes instead of making a snap judgement based on a sentence taken out of context spoken during a multi hour interview.

I just finished this podcast series, and it’s one of the best I’ve ever heard. Like many people, I wasn’t all that familiar with the machinations surrounding the formation of Israel. Daryl Cooper provides a very even handed description of the events leading to the formation of Israel from both the Jewish and Arab perspective. On more than one occasion, I wept at the sheer barbarity of human race. I think many people’s understanding of a pogrom comes from Fiddler on the Roof. I know mine did. I don’t think most people understand the horror that Jews were forced to endure for centuries as residents of other countries. Most people just think about The Holocaust, but that was just a culmination of centuries of persecution and pogroms. As Daryl says, “What would YOU do?” Now that I have a better understanding of the situation in in Israel, I’m also not sure what the solution is. The Arabs have a right to their land and homes. The Jews have a right to their own country where they’re not persecuted for simply being Jewish. History is more often than not simply a tale of power and conquest. On more than one occasion, I thought about how America was founded on the former lands of Native Americans. America had the strength to take the entire territory of the United States by force, so we did. Israel had the power to take what they considered their rightful homeland by force, so they did. We are not giving the land back to the Native Americans anymore than Israel is giving back their land to the Arabs. What would you do?

Can't really support anyone who supports people who spout white replacement theory and general fascism. It's a shame, because I've been listening for years. But to see the company he's decided to keep, hear the things he says, and then to hear him speak with amused self-righteousness about the attention his support of seething racists has received is just gross. It's very disappointing. Luckily there are plenty of other podcasters who don't celebrate themselves for hanging out with white nationalists.
