  • DDH - An Instrument of Arbitrary Power
    2026/01/20
    Before the first shots were fired, before tea hit the water, the American Revolution was already underway, quietly, methodically, and with paperwork. This episode begins in places that do not make it onto commemorative mugs. Courtrooms. Docks. Ledger books. It begins with a simple realization that spread through the colonies like a winter chill. British authority was no longer bound by its own rules. The law, once assumed to be a shield, had started to feel like a weapon. We tend to remember rebellion when it looks dramatic. We forget it when it looks procedural. But long before muskets cracked at Lexington, colonists were watching ships seized under cannon, neighbors dragged into courts without juries, and legal rights evaporate behind polite language and official seals. These were not accidents. They were patterns. Today on Dave Does History on Bill Mick Live, we look at two maritime flashpoints that forced that truth into the open. The seizure of John Hancock’s ship Liberty. The burning of HMS Gaspee. On the surface, they look like local disputes. They exposed something far more dangerous. A system willing to deny juries, relocate trials, and treat distance itself as punishment. These events did not just provoke anger. They taught a lesson. When law becomes untethered from consent, resistance stops being radical and starts being rational. This is the story of how paperwork, procedure, and power pushed America toward independence.

  • WTF - Bat (CRAP) Crazy
    2026/01/18
    Welcome back to *What the Frock?*, the show where a rabbi, a friar, and a strong cup of coffee try to make sense of a world that has clearly skipped a few maintenance checks. In this episode, we start where all serious analysis begins, with football heartbreak and bad bets. From there, we wander, cheerfully and with intent, into the strange new marketplace where people no longer wager on games but on governments, resignations, and the expiration dates of world leaders. Not *if*, mind you, but *when*. That alone should tell you something about the age we are living in. Along the way, we ask uncomfortable questions about media, madness, and why shouting has replaced persuasion. We talk about the economics of outrage, the difference between conviction and performance, and what happens when even the loudest voices start blinking at the craziness around them. We also notice something quieter and far more unsettling, the absence of celebration as the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence approaches with barely a whisper. There are no tidy answers here. Just history, skepticism, gallows humor, and a shared sense that silence often says more than noise ever could. Pull up a chair. Pour a drink if that is your custom. The frock is on, and the world is still strange.

  • 41 Cold War Sentinels - USS Benjamin Franklin SSBN-640
    2026/01/17
    She was built to disappear. Not in the romantic sense, not like a magician’s flourish or a ship slipping into fog for the sake of poetry, but in the colder, more disciplined sense of Cold War necessity. USS Benjamin Franklin was designed to vanish into the acoustic shadows of the ocean, to become a rumor instead of a presence, a probability instead of a target. That was the deal struck between the Navy and history in the early 1960s. If the submarine could not be found, then war itself might be kept at bay.
