This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel Ubik It focuses specifically on one of the central themes involved in the plot and worldbuilding of the story, namely the existence of psionic talents such as telepathy and precognition, and the existence of anti-psionic talents (called inertials) that nullify those psionic talents. Most of the psionic and anti-psionic talents work for companies, like that of Ray Hollis or Glen Runciter To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler You can get a copy of Ubik here - https://amzn.to/4k8i348
This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel Ubik It focuses specifically on one of the key features of the narrative world Dick develops in the story, namely the technology of Cold-Pac, which allows people who have experienced bodily death to be kept at cold temperatures and have their brains and thereby consciousnesses maintained, extending them for a while into "half-life". They do eventually run down and die after their energies are exhausted, and perhaps are reincarnated or have their consciousness simply drift off into space. Within half-life, there are some predatorial people who consume the lives of other people in order to extend their own half-lives.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel Ubik It focuses specifically on the advertisement copy framing Ubik as a variety of different commodities and services that begin nearly each chapter of the novel. Most of them also include cautions that the product must only be used as directed.

A follow-up to last week's Hockey Update. Not all the news is good. This week's movie is based on a true story, a first for this podcast. As such, Steve dives into the real history of Alfred (Alferd) Packer.Cannibal! The Musical: A musical bit of fan fic surrounding the real life "adventures" of Alfred Packer, a 19th Century American who served in the Civil War, became a wilderness guide and gold miner, then ate a bunch of guys. That escalated quickly, huh? The movie might just be a vehicle to mock a woman Trey Parker was in a relationship with at one time, as her namesake in the movie is Packer's fictional horse, Lianne, aka The Horse Who Would Let Anybody Ride Her. He may have made this entire movie just to talk about her.Yor, The Movie with the Wordy Title final grade: Steve: It was entertaining. If you're a fan of South Park or Team America: World Police, you'll like this as a kind of origin story for Trey and Matt. Their restaurant doesn't have very good food, FYI. The local twist of this movie makes it interesting to us. 2.75/5.0Brandon: This one was a little shpadoinkle, but not all the way shpadoinkle. You could see bits and pieces of things that would later become the kind of humor that would make these guys boatloads of cash with South Park and other stuff. 2.5/5.0Cocktail of the Week:The Cannibal Reviver1 oz Gin1/2 oz Lemon Juice1/2 oz Yellow Chartreuse or Genepy de Chamois1/2 oz Dolin Sweet White VermouthPeychaud BittersCombine everything in a cocktail shaker. Shake to combine and chill, then strain into a rocks glass over ice. Garnish with a lemon wedge/wheel. Cocktail Grade: Maybe it's the fact that we're not popping the $80 for a bottle of Chartreuse, and the Genepy stuff messes it up, but this one was just OK. A bit of an anise flavor that will turn off black licorice haters. Better than ChatGPT creations, at least. 2.0/5.0------------------Contact us with feedback or cocktail/movie recommendations to:boozeandbmovies@gmail.comX: @boozeandbmoviesInstagram: @boozeandbmoviesThreads: @boozeandbmovieswww.facebook.com/boozeandbmovies
Ancient Sculpture and Twentieth-Century American Womanhood: Venus Envy (Bloomsbury, 2025) by Dr. Hallie Franks examines the reception of Graeco-Roman sculptures of Venus and their role in the construction of the body aesthetics of the “fit” American woman in the decades around the turn of the 20th century. In this historical moment, 19th-century anthropometric methods, the anti-corset dress reform movement and early fitness culture were united in their goal of identifying and producing healthy, procreative female bodies. These discourses presented ancient statues of Venus – most frequently, the Venus de Milo – as the supreme visual model of a superior, fit, feminine physique. An America of such Venuses would herald the future prosperity of the “American race” by reviving the robust health and moral righteousness of the ancient Greeks. Venuses had long been symbols of beauty, but the new situation of Venus statues as an aesthetic and moral destination for women set up a slippage between ideal sculpture and living bodies: what did it mean for a woman to embody – or to try to embody – the perfect health and beauty of an ancient statue? How were women expected to translate this model into flesh? What were the political stakes to which this vision of a nation of American Venuses was bound? Who was believed to conform to this ideal, and who was excluded from it? In taking on these questions, Dr. Franks engages with physical culture and dress-reform media, modern artwork that adapts Graeco-Roman traditions, anthropological texts, art histories of ancient Greece, film, advertising and medical reporting on women's health. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on the discussion of and engagement with the Oracle (aka the Book of Changes or the I Jing) on the part of Juliana Frink and the Abendsens. Juliana is able to determine that Hawthorne Abendsen used the Oracle to write his alternate history novel The Grasshopper Lies Heavy. This then raises a question: Why would the Oracle choose to write a book? The answer is that through that, it reveals the truth about the world that is the setting for the novel, namely that the world in which the Axis powers won World War II is not the true or real world To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler You can get a copy of Man In The High Castle here - https://amzn.to/45yJ2ie
This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on the experience that Nobusuke Tagomi has when he concentrates on a piece of jewelry produced by the Edfrank company in the park, and finds himself transported to an alternate America in a world in which the Allies won the war instead of losing it. The experience allows him to recenter himself from his trauma resulting from killing the two SD Kommandos in the Nippon Times Building.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on he new and original American jewelry produced by the Edfrank Custom Jewelry company and placed on consignment with Robert Childan's American Artistic Handcrafts, Inc. store. Childan gives Paul Kasoura one of the pieces, and there is a very interesting exchange between the two of them. Paul asserts that Frank Frink's jewelry is without aesthetic value, particularly wabi, but possesses a higher transcendent value of wu, placed in the artifact by its maker. Paul then proposes to Robert that the pieces can be used to mass-produce a line of copies for poor people in South America, which places Robert in a crisis that demands a decision be made.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on a plot-point only revealed in the last third of the book, but which has been set up as Tagomi organizes a meeting between the Swedish Baynes (actually the Abwehr agent Wegner) and retired Japanese general Tedeki). Baynes/Wegner reveals the existence and readiness of a Nazi plot for attaining world domination, Operation Dandelion, which involves a massive nuclear attack on Japan. This poses a dilemma, since Goebels, who is in process of consolidating his power, is in favor of Operation Dandelion, but Heydrich and the SD/SS are against the operation. Wegner suggests that the Japanese government should support the "most malignant part of German society", Heydrich and the police. This means collaborating with evil in order to prevent evil of a different sort and on a greater scale.

Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on the alternate history novel "The Grasshopper Lies Heavy" which is read and referenced by a number of the characters in the work.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on two of the characters in the novel, Betty and Paul Kasoura, who are a younger Japanese married couple newly stationed in the Pacific States of America. We get to see them largely through their interactions with, and in the thoughts of Robert Childan, the American antiquities and artifacts dealer. We discuss three main interactions: the first in Robert Childan's shop, the second in the Kasoura's home, and the third in Paul's office.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on one of the characters central to the story, the Swiss Nazi assassin, on a mission to kill the "man in the high castle", Hawthorne Abendsen, the author of The Grasshopper Lies Heavy. He poses very convincingly as a bitter Italian veteran and trucker, who hooks up with Juliana Frink and proposes they go meet Abendsen. One of the interesting narrative features of this character is that we see him primarily only through his interactions with Juliana.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on one of the most central characters in the work, one who arguably provides the most consistent moral perspective throughout the novel, Nobusuke Tagomi, who is a Trade Mission official in the Pacific States of America. He is a person who values ethical action and intentions, and who is repulsed by the evil he sees the Nazis engaged in throughout the work. Tagomi also relies upon the Oracle (the Book of Changes or I Jing) throughout the narrative, but is also able to act upon his own when he considers the possibility of the world being abandoned by it.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on the role that the ancient Chinese work and practice of divination, The Book Of Changes (Yi Jing/I Ching), generally referred to as "The Oracle". It is used by a number of the characters in the Pacific States of America and in the Rocky Mountain States within the novel, and for more than one purpose. Nobusuke Tagomi, Frank Frink, and Juliana Frink consult the oracle for guidance in preparing for and making decisions about important matters. In the cases of Tagomi and Frank, they also rely upon the oracle to better understand their own relationship to the Dao or their own unconscious.

TrineDay's The Journey Podcast 172Onward! Kris, Paul, Liz, Kent and Adam Wish Bruce WellPublisher Kris Millegan and authors Paul Fitzgerald, Elizabeth Gould, S. K. Bain and A. W. Finnegan wish Bruce de Torres well as he becomes Communications Director for the American Small Business League. Bruce became TrineDay's Marketing Director in 2020 when Kris launched TrineDay's podcast, THE JOURNEY: Conversations with Publisher Kris Millegan.Bruce's book, GOD, SCHOOL, 9/11 AND JFK: The Lies That Are Killing Us and The Truth That Sets Us Free, came out in 2021 (Read the amazing reviews at BrucedeTorres.com!), the same year Kris launched TrineDay's Live monthly Zoom Roundtables, inspired by Paul and Liz's book, THE VALEDICTION, their two-part memoir about the mainstream media's refusal to broadcast the truths that Paul and Liz found in Afghanistan about the Soviet Union's presence there in the 1980s, and about what Paul and Liz call “the narrative creation process.”The Roundtables explore JFK's vision of peace, and economic justice as the foundation for a genuine world peace, highlighting the principles of Henry George, 19th Century American political economist. Future Roundtables can be found at Valediction.net, under Events. Past Roundtables can be seen on YouTube, on the channel called “Valediction Vision.”S. K. Bain is the author of four TrineDay books: THE MOST DANGEROUS BOOK IN THE WORLD: 9/11 as Mass Ritual; THE END…IS ONLY THE BEGINNING: 2022 and the Coming of God; BLACK JACK: The Dawning of the New Great Age of Satan; and MOST DANGEROUS: A True Story. His humor lets the reader comprehend the malice evident in the events he relates.A. W. Finnegan is the author of THE SLEEPER AGENT: The Rise of Lyme Disease, Chronic Illness and the Great Imitator Antigens of Biological Warfare, “very different than what most people think of when they hear ‘biological warfare.' An attack to tire and exhaust; to take down your enemy over one hundred years, not six months or so with a deadly disease, because those burn out quickly and actually don't do as much damage. … if you take out the immune system, there's a secondary effect on the brain, causing what I call the dark triad: chronic disease, neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders, and cancers. All three of those are absolutely exploding in western countries today.”Inspired by Paul and Liz's stories of synchronicities, dreams, and other mystical experiences, Bruce describes seeing JFK in his mind's eye while standing near the eternal flame at Arlington Cemetery, then having an echo or bookend experience while standing on the Grassy Knoll in Dealey Plaza seven years later.“TrineDay will always be family. I will stay in touch. And, as Kris says, there is a right way to walk here on earth, a right way for us to treat our brothers and sisters.”
This episode wwas one for the books. So many many books. And the reading and researching of all those recipes showed me that - once again - some of the assumptions I went in with were way off!Chicken and dumplins... dumplin - are not typical early 19th century fare. But plenty of other stew type things are. And there are lessons in the recipes for all us modern cooks - regardless of how we cook our stew.The biggest big deal - brown your meat! The other thing - freshen up your seasoning right before serving. Do it!But what if it's a vegetable... a meatless stew? Well, I fear to tell you, due to the spice fearing vegetarian crusaders of the 19th century (the Grahamites and their ilk) this was a terrible time to go hunting for good American vegetable stew. It was there, but not in any printed cookbook. America's date with generally good vegetable cookery got badly shoved into the corner.Sigh.But get on board with why our stew got so bad - and how you can make yours great!Music Credit: Fingerlympics by Doctor TurtleShow Notes: https://thehistoryofamericanfood.blogspot.com/Email: TheHistoryofAmericanFood at gmail dot com Threads: @THoAFoodInstagram: @THoAFood& some other socials... @THoAFood
This week's tech news is all about Elon Musk and Vivak Ramaswamy's DOGE ambitions to supposedly reinvent the Federal government. But as That Was The Week publisher Keith Teare and Andrew discuss this week, the problem with this DOGE plan is that it appears much more interested in blowing up government than in rebuilding it. What's needed, Keith and Andrew argue, is to radically rethink government as something that delivers high quality services for 21st century American society. It's what Keith coins as “government-as-service” and Tim O'Reilly calls government as a platform. Such a forward thinking conception of government, Keith and Andrew agree, is essential if the Democrats are to successfully counter the destructive Republican DOGE plan with something more constructive of their own. Keith Teare is the founder and CEO of SignalRank Corporation. Previously, he was executive chairman at Accelerated Digital Ventures Ltd., a U.K.-based global investment company focused on startups at all stages. Teare studied at the University of Kent and is the author of “The Easy Net Book” and “Under Siege.” He writes regularly for TechCrunch and publishes the “That Was The Week” newsletter.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators. In addition to presenting KEEN ON, he is the host of the long-running How To Fix Democracy show. He is also the author of four prescient books about digital technology: CULT OF THE AMATEUR, DIGITAL VERTIGO, THE INTERNET IS NOT THE ANSWER and HOW TO FIX THE FUTURE. Andrew lives in San Francisco, is married to Cassandra Knight, Google's VP of Litigation & Discovery, and has two grown children.Keen On is a reader-supported publication.

Peter Matthiessen (1927 – 2014) was an American novelist, naturalist, wilderness writer, environmental activist, and zen teacher whose works dealt with the destructive effects of encroaching technology on preindustrial cultures and the natural environment. He is the only American writer to win The National Book Award in both nonfiction (The Snow Leopard) and fiction (Shadow Country). In this episode of Nature Revisited we meet Peter's son Alex Matthiessen – a distinguished environmentalist in his own right – who offers rare insights into the well-traveled life, prolific works, and nature-steeped pursuits of one of the true "literary lions" of 20th Century American literature. https://www.matthiessencenter.org/ Peter Matthiessen books: http://bit.ly/3AXCUVR Listen to Nature Revisited on your favorite podcast apps or at https://noordenproductions.com Subscribe on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/bdz4s9d7 Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/5n7yx28t Podlink: https://pod.link/1456657951 Support Nature Revisited https://noordenproductions.com/support Nature Revisited is produced by Stefan van Norden and Charles Geoghegan.

In The Woman as Slave in Nineteenth-Century American Social Movements (Palgrave Macmillan, 2019), Ana Stevenson explores the ubiquity of what she terms the “woman-slave analogy” in nineteenth-century US feminist discourse. Using examples from the women's suffrage, abolition, dress-reform, and labor movements, among others, Steveson reconstructs the creation of this theoretical framework that imagined women's subjugation as similar to, and sometimes even worse than, the plight of enslaved Americans. Although the women-slave analogy sometimes appeared tone-deaf, Stevenson demonstrates the many different ways that reformers--men and women, black and white--embraced the concept to fight for women's political, legal, and economic rights. Crucially, Stevenson's book encourages us to rethink the intellectual foundations of modern feminism and to critically evaluate the legacy of the women-as-slave worldview. Chelsea Gibson is a Visiting Assistant Professor at Binghamton University. Her research explores the reception of Russian terrorist women in the United States before 1917.
