Hard Cornell

October 5, 2026 · 1 h 6 min

Show notes

Today we discuss the story of the Cornell 7 and the controversy surrounding accounts of the events and aftermath of the incident, the potential for bias in the appointment of Letitia James as special prosecutor, as well as the general degradation of academia. Plus, England's Green Party further descends into antisemitism, and New York City ends its relationship with a far left synagogue. We end with Seth's recommendation of the PBS miniseries Tresspasses.
