| 10/15/26 |  KunstlerCast 453 — Edward Tenner on Why the Hindenburg Had a Smoking Lounge | Edward Tenner's new book is Why the Hindenburg Had a Smoking Lounge, a witty and erudite followup to his bestseller, Why Things Bite Back about the peculiar intersection between technology, human nature, and the revenge of unintended consequences. He has had a distinguished academic career in history at Princeton, Harvard, and the University of Chicago and was science acquisition editor at Princeton University Press, where he published, among other books, Richard Feynman's best-seller, QED. Many of his fine essays can be found at EdwardTenner.com. The KunstlerCast theme music is the beautiful Two Rivers Waltz written and performed by Larry Unger | 1h 05m 02s | ||||||

The site is self-funded with no institutional backers, and free for public use. Berman's essays can be found on Medium / X for free and act as entry points to explore the Engine. I only encountered Alan for the first time a few weeks ago. He's young, in his 30s, and has had an interesting background in martial arts training (the gym he owned was run out of business by the Covid Lockdowns), as well as radio production and a spell as a standup comedian. Get to know him. . . I plan to get him back on later this year. His website is called Moketchups.com. ("Moketchups" is a gag by standup comedian Dave Attell.) You can find the Psychohistory Prediction Engine there. The KunstlerCast theme music is the beautiful Two Rivers Waltz written and performed by Larry Unger | 1h 13m 02s | ||||||

| 7/30/26 |  KunstlerCast 448 — Lt. Morriseu's Rebellion and the Rise of Bernie Sanders | On this summer break podcast. Dennis Morriseau is an interesting friend of mine with a political history worth recounting. He was the only US Army officer in the USA who refused orders to Vietnam after several in-uniform protests — including one at the White House gate, noted by Walter Cronkite on CBS-News at the time — and he beat the court-martial that resulted. Dennis went on to run for Congress in Vermont 3 times 1970, '71, 74 . Bernie Sanders was on Dennis's campaign staff in the '71 election, and we'll hear more about that. After politics, Dennis went on to found and run the popular Burlington, VT restaurant: Leunig's Old World Cafe (since renamed Leunig's Bistro). He lives in West Pawlet, VT in an art gallery on the Indian River called LOST & FOUND ART. He Winters in Belize.

He is an expert in analyzing systems and procedures for the U.S government. He says he is "keenly aware of the rapid politicization that has occurred not just in the humanities, but increasingly in the science, technology, and mathematics (STEM) areas, and is devoted to debunking the shoddy reasoning behind many contemporary trends such as the extravagant claims made for Artificial Intelligence." His latest book is Artificial Intelligence: Foundations, Limitations, Benefits and Dangers — and is the subject of this conversation. He is president of the Xavier Zubiri Foundation of North America, and has translated several of the Spanish philosopher's books into English. Currently an independent consultant and Adjunct Professor of Engineering at George Mason University, he has lectured widely in the U.S., South America, and Europe on science and philosophy.
