Part One: Alex Karp: How Palantir's CEO Went From Marxist To Anti-Woke Crusader
Behind the Bastards opens a two-part episode on Palantir CEO Alex Karp, tracing his left-wing Philadelphia upbringing, dyslexia, friendship with Peter Thiel at Stanford, and doctoral years in Frankfurt, where Jürgen Habermas declined to supervise his dissertation — a rejection that still stings. Host Robert Evans calls Karp one of the show's most dangerous subjects, now an anti-woke Trump enabler.
