What do you think of Big Herc's book list? He's more well read than 90% of this board.

I mean, good on him for reading and rehabilitating himself, but those books are mostly junk

He responds to all emails. Share some of your favourites with him.

The OG badger stories are scary as hell. The guy that escaped from the Florida prison by falling in love with a guard is a hilarious storyteller. He should write a book.

I don't know Big Herc beyond that the linked video or what his interests are, so i think it would be inappropriate for me to send him unsolicited book recommendations. Based on some of the book he listed (self-help), i would guess that he'd like Stoic thinkers like Epictetus, Seneca, and Aurelius. I'd imagine Augustine's confessions would also interest him. Virtue ethic would would probably suit him too, but i can't think of a text that isn't overly theoretical.

The law and religion stuff is based, the self help and conspiracy stuff is cringeworthy
