The Cost of Immortality

March 17, 2020 16:50 - 1 hour - 67.4 MB

Many want to live forever, but few give real thought to what the cost of immortality would be, to them and to the human race. Let’s say your wish for immortality is granted. What does life look like in a world of immortals? Everything costs.

Just A Puppet That Sees The Strings.

March 15, 2020 00:36 - 58 minutes - 53.1 MB

“So long as we can be made to think that death is a bad thing we can be ruled”- Alan Watts. It’s the end of the world—as we know it. Not in an Armageddon sense, but, everything will be different from now on. What we are experiencing is a social experiment, thats demonstrating just how easily the entire world’s population can be corralled and herded into a panic using smart phones and mass media. Stay conscious my friends.

Fear, Reactivity and Pain

March 09, 2020 21:19 - 1 hour - 66.7 MB

Further discussions on the media utilising the Coronavirus to trigger unconscious reactivity en masse, the conscious exercise of free will, and using the mind as a tool to master pain.

We’re all mad here

February 22, 2020 01:52 - 1 hour - 56.8 MB

What do schizophrenics, hallucinogenics and video games have to teach us about reality?

Multiple incarnations into the same life.

February 13, 2020 17:32 - 43 minutes - 39.6 MB

They say life imitates art, but what if life was a futuristic, multidimensional, quantum art form. What if your higher-self incarnates multiple times into the same life, each death a draft or sketch or layer, building up to a perfectly imperfect masterpiece of a life?

...conscious in a Westworld sort of way

February 10, 2020 18:39 - 31 minutes - 28.8 MB

Imagine that free will is an illusion, that everything you’re experiencing has already been pre-scripted and you’re just the consciousness experiencing it and if you make your self aware, you start paying attention, you start seeing where the people who created you are taking artistic license with your story. What would you do in that situation? How would you try to drive the story?

Your Death Date.

February 09, 2020 16:07 - 47 minutes - 43.7 MB

What would you do if you knew the day you were going to die?

A sort of feedback loop through time.

February 08, 2020 06:47 - 40 minutes - 37.3 MB

If time is relative then perhaps not everyone experiences time chronologically. What if some people can somehow communicate with future versions of themselves. What if your future self can affect your present behaviour? This episode was created literally in the midst of such an even happening to me. It was just as trippy recording it as it will be listening to it. And I’m still slightly tripped out.

What if earth is another world’s heaven?

February 05, 2020 16:00 - 23 minutes - 22.2 MB

If Life is a simulation, what sort of civilization would simulate this world? What if Earth is another world’s “heaven?”

WW3

January 09, 2020 01:23 - 35 minutes - 32.8 MB

War is an archaic institution that is a product of primitive times and we as a race should’ve evolved from this practice a long time ago. The year JUST started! Can we at least have some time to our Christmas trees away before attempting to drag us into WW3?!

Dr Manhattan’s Achilles Heel.

December 15, 2019 06:10 - 25 minutes - 23.5 MB

Just finished watching WATCHMAN Season 1, Episode 7. While watching it, it dawned on me that Dr Manhattan, the big blue god, suffers from the same weakness that plagues the rest of us: a lack of free will...

Andrew Yang, Socialism-lite and Guaranteed Basic Income

December 12, 2019 19:13 - 37 minutes - 35.1 MB

Why aren’t more people talking about Andrew Yang and his guaranteed basic income proposal? Yes it’s socialism... “lite,” but how is it “free money” when he all have to pay taxes? We pay taxes we should get some of that money back and not just when we are too old to really enjoy it! On this episode I argue that Capitalism can be improved with a dash of socialism. It’s working in Europe and Canada, it can work here.

November 08, 2019 23:45 - 43 minutes - 20.5 MB

What does “survival” look like in the 21st century, in the age of mass consumption of media at the detriment of the actualization of one’s self?

At this rate, humanity as a whole is gonna be dumb as shit in 500 yrs.
