New HH Episode forth coming!

WTF
If anything I'm making Dan's case, except more honestly.

I didn’t hear a whole lot of equivocating, but yeah - he didn’t come out with “the Japanese were totally bastards for no reason”.

I think you’re injecting a whole lot of extra politics into the show. Common Sense became a train wreck, sure. I just don’t think it matters that much in the HH show.

It’s pretty damned good, even if he’s not your hero anymore.

It is just plain silly at this point to try to pretend that Dan hasn't caved to wokeness. He is chasing the dollars. Kudos for him but let's not pretend that isn't what he is doing. He faked his way into an audience that got him popular. That you think CS is so detached from his HH is kind of laughable. The dude's ideology permeates everything he produces, there is no barrier.

I wouldn’t claim any such thing. He’s gone mainstream - we all know that. But this is sounding a lot like ‘cancel culture’.
I don’t really care about the guys politics, I just enjoy the show. Not a lot of history podcasts out there with that level of intensity and depth.

Enjoy away.

Who is trying to cancel him? His politics are part of his show, there is no getting away from that. It's punk music that has the approval of "your" parents.

Someday, somebody else will do what he’s doing, and I’ll listen to that as well.

Pirate History, History of England/Byzantium/Rome/etc are available as well. HH is just another one of many that I listen to, and my hair hasn’t turned pink yet.

What a weird disclaimer.

Apparently, the concern is that Dans politics will infect the minds of listeners?

That isn't my takeaway from this discussion.

Then please explain why Anyone would care about his politics, in relation to the show?
Some offhand comment, out of a 30-hour podcast doesn’t really justify hating on the show.

His politics and political correctness infect his show. Hardcore History ain't so hardcore after all.

Who said anything about hating the show?
