This episode marks Dave's debut on Rumble with a full audio/video presentation. To mark the occasional, Dave had the honor of hosting and interviewing Dr. Stanley Ridgley about his brand new book, "DEI Exposed; How The Biggest Con Of The Century Almost Toppled Higher Education."
Professor Ridgley's book is meticulously sourced to the tune of 599 footnotes, copious original source documentation, and more information than could possibly be contained in a single interview. As Dave said, "It's like trying to extract a singe teaspoon of water from Niagra Falls." As the conversation unfolds, we are learn of everything about the academic ecosystem that allows fraudsters to gain a veneer of academic credibility with which to wreck higher education from within. The book also contains the practical implications of DEI, including the story of Oceangate, whose CEO advertised that 50 year-old submarine veterans need not apply in the construction and operation of the Titan submarine, which was to explore the Titanic on the ocean floor - the result being that sub imploded some 12,500 feet down into the Atlantic, killing the four occupants instantly.
It's a fascinating conversation in a fascinating new chapter of The Dave Carter Show!

"I plead Cajun"
That's a guilty plea, but quicker?

Hate to bring this up, but you might want to look at the ads. Not for the sprinkler service; I'm half a continent away from Georgia but I certainly don't mind hearing about a relative making good. The automatic insertion ads; there's a lot of them, and they have a tendency to break into the middle of sentences.
"You take a name like ---"
"Dr. Sarah Somethingoranother, one of our leading public health experts, warns of the dangers of fentanyl abuse."
Pretty sure that wasn't the name you were going for. I'm better informed than I ever want to be about Chumba Casino. But, everyone's got to work for a living. If you gotta have ads go for it, but I'd appreciate it if you could at least make sure they don't split sentences.

Finally got the chance to watch on Rumble. Glad you are on that platform. Great interview with Dr. Ridgley. My husband and I had to stop it several times to discuss how these things impacted our work lives. (Thankfully not having to deal with that anymore.) Looking forward to the next show! Oh, and great music, as always.
