7/14/2025: If by DEI, you mean...w/ guest Stanley K. Ridgley

Knocked Conscious with Mark Puls

Pour yourself something strong, because this episode of If By Whiskey might get you canceled just for listening. Jason and Mark welcome the brilliantly unfiltered Dr. Stanley K. Ridgley, author of "DEI Exposed: How the Biggest Con of the Century Almost Toppled Higher Education", to take a flamethrower to the bureaucratic buzzwords taking over universities and HR departments everywhere.

We’re talking about Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion—aka the Holy Trinity of Virtue Signaling—and Dr. Ridgley’s here to reveal what’s really going on behind those glossy training videos and awkward corporate retreats. From Marxist roots to modern madness, we break down how DEI became a billion-dollar industry built on guilt, jargon, and PowerPoint slides.

It’s sharp, it’s funny, and it might just make you rethink your next company townhall. Buckle up—and sip accordingly.
