#166 - Duncan Trussell

Bob Woodward

“Duncan Trussell (Speaker B) discusses Sebastian Junger's book 'War' about a deadly valley in Afghanistan. He describes it as 'a great book' and 'fucking awesome,' explaining how Junger embedded with troops in the Korengal Valley and wrote about the experience of war without moral judgment.”

Heinrich Institoris, Jakob Sprenger

“Duncan Trussell (Speaker B) mentions this book about torturing witches, also known as 'The Hammer of the Witches,' which was written during the Inquisition. Joe Rogan orders it on Amazon during the podcast.”

James L. Kugel

“Duncan Trussell (Speaker B) references the Bible metaphorically as an 'old shitty map' that people use for guidance, comparing it to the Constitution and other outdated systems, in the context of discussing how society needs new frameworks for the modern connected world.”
