Illegitimate Scholar
Samuel Urban
Our culture is in crisis and I don’t trust woke universities and authoritarian governments to give us the solution. I examine modern culture through history and anthropology, as well as other sources like indigenous knowledge and common sense. This is a show for those who love academics but hate academia, and want to learn about social studies without the constraining limits of woke universities.

Educator to Entrepreneur: The Art of Purpose
Illegitimate Scholar
In this episode, I talk to Art of Purpose and he shares his journey of going from a Public school teacher to self employed millionaire. Dino and I discuss Teaching, the issues with public school, mindset, and finding your purpose. Art of Purpose is a social media consultant, and I learned a lot of my Twitter knowledge from him. I highly recommend personally his courses and communities and find him on X spaces every Monday if you want to grow on X/Twitter.

- Centralization
- Definition
- the action or process of bringing activities together in one place.
- the concentration of control of an activity or organization under a single authority.
- Definition
- Hunter-gatherers, state of nature
- Any higher centralization requires some level of political organization
- Early Empires
- Rome similar but specific example China
- Standardized writing system:
- Standardized systems of weights and measures:
- Standardized currency:
- Network of roads and canals:
- Great Wall of China:
- Rome similar but specific example China
- After Roman Empire collapses the next thing I want to concentrate on is the modern era, beginning with the era of “absolutism”
- Feudalism in Europe was decentralized
- Phillip II of Spain
- He established the Royal Printing Office in Madrid in 1566
- Established the Tercios
- Professional Army under Spain specifically
- Rather than feudal levies
- Standardized, highly effective
- He built new roads and canals to connect different parts of Spain and to facilitate the movement of troops and supplies.
- Physical location very important
- China, Rome, USA, always important, speed matters
- He expanded the Spanish bureaucracy and created new government departments
- Always
- Replaces feudalism
- Put loyal people in those positions
- #patronage
- He established a postal service that linked Madrid to all major Spanish cities
- With new roads, postal service allows control of larger area, utilize those roads, make information reliable and control
- All only possible with marriage of Ferdinand and Isabella of Castile in 1469
- Leads into Spain
- Modern era
- All the centralization in the modern era mirrors the past
- Railroads allowed for even faster transportation
- Telegraph for faster information transfer
- Ship technology faster transport
- Regional languages disappear as people are incentivized to speak the most economically viable language
- Post-Modern and the future
- That brings us to today
- Internet is an insane force
- Lifestyle centralization
- People in Namibia, Indonesia, Myanmar can see life in the upper classes of North America, Europe, East Asia, Middle Easst
- Globalism and the New World Order

057 - Politics of Identity w/ The Prudentialist
Illegitimate Scholar
Identity, Multiculturalism, and Societal Shifts
Written by AI for Keywords and Simplicity. (Do not blame me for how it sounds college liberally)
Prudentialist Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePrudentialist
Prudentialist Substack: https://theprudentialist.substack.com/
I, Illegitimate Scholar, together with the Prudentialist discuss identity, multiculturalism, and the evolving societal dynamics of 21st century America. We discuss the effects of mass immigration, the nuances of assimilation, and the profound impact of demographic shifts on politics and culture. We critically address the commodification of identity, the role of media and institutions in shaping perceptions, and the influence of identity politics on contemporary discourse. Through an in-depth analysis that includes historical injustices, governmental policies, and the implications of globalization, we shed light on the challenges and opportunities presented by a multicultural society. Our discussion aims to provide a profound understanding of the intricate relationship between personal identity, societal structures, and cultural changes, offering insights into the ongoing debates around diversity, inclusion, and the shaping of public policy.

Books and Audible:
Audible AUDIOBOOKS, free trial:
https://amzn.to/3TJOARA"American Nations" - Cultural history of the US focused on distinct cultural areas and their affects. Link: https://amzn.to/3P6lTwn
The three big anthropology books I recommend :
"Guns, Germs and Steel" - https://amzn.to/3qI271S
"Dawn of Everything" Graeber/Wengrow - culturally left wing big (pop) anthropology/history book. Good for diversity of thought, many good references here. - https://amzn.to/47Fl6uH
"Sapiens" - Globalist/WEF but a decent take to understand their position. -https://amzn.to/47FEW95
Other reccomendations:
"The Korean War" -Bruce Cummings, history of colonization of Korea and the context of the nationalist/communist wars of East Asia. - https://amzn.to/3smlLB3
"Oracle Bones" - Book on China from a journalist's perspective in the 90s, exceptional and if people want to read one book on China I recommend this one. - https://amzn.to/3YOOfzE
"1491" - Mann. So much of what we know about Native Americans is tainted by influence of Europeans (by the time Europeans were writing a lot of stuff down, especially in English 200 years had passed since first contact and almost everyone was dead and the cultures were irrevocably changed, even if they didn't meet Europeans yet). The lost history of pre-Columbian western hemisphere is a glimpse into so many unique cultures that challenge our assumptions of human nature as well as history. - https://amzn.to/45luIsM

034 - Death of Tradition in Medicine
Illegitimate Scholar
Besides the explosion of medical company monopolies, not much has changed with medicine in my lifetime. My boomer parents took pills for everything and they encouraged me to. mention of a headache gets an ibuprofen, rather than a glass of water. Even at a young age I was obsessed with primitive people and I wondered how they survived without our modern medicine, or even toothpaste. It was only once I was much older that I realized that much of the problems we have are due to our modern life and they way we live, and our culture decided the best solution was to pop pills and make $400 rubber insoles rather than actually change the culture to just not create those problems that need industrial solutions.
I’m Sam and this is the Illegitimate Scholar Podcast. The weekly cultural anthropology and history podcast that makes sense of our senseless world through indigenous and historical examples, academic methods in social science, and a perspective not limited by the crushing restrictions that come with traditional academia and public schools
Today we are going to talk traditional medicine, the pros and cons and what it can do and can’t do. Then where our modern health system comes from, what the nature of our health culture is, and why people are so fat and miserable in the west.

I’m Sam and this is the Illegitimate Scholar Podcast. The weekly cultural anthropology and history podcast that makes sense of our senseless world through indigenous and historical examples, academic methods in social science, and a perspective not limited by the crushing restrictions that come with traditional academia and public schools
Today we are going to talk traditional medicine, the pros and cons and what it can do and can’t do. Then where our modern health system comes from, what the nature of our health culture is, and why people are so fat and miserable in the west.

033 - Caffeine and Capitalism: A Culture's Choice of Drug
Illegitimate Scholar
Indigenous cultures often have hallucinogenic traditions, from Meso-America, to Africa, the Pacific, and indigenous Europe. The United States, Spain, and Japan, just as diverse, all drink similar amounts of coffee while being very different cultures. Why do these cultures that differ so much share these traits, and what do these, and the use of other drugs tell us about the values and customs of a culture?

017 - Corporations Place in Our Culture
Illegitimate Scholar
I discuss how corporations affect our country, and how they work. I discuss the implications of the structure of corporations and how to best interact with them in your daily life and evaluate the effect of a corporation. Corporations are a specific type of organization, but they are a social construct and can compare to other social constructs.
