Stargate program veteran and pioneering consciousness researcher, Dean Radin, dives into quantum reality, MK Ultra, the Telepathy Tapes, and more on episode 217 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.For decades, Radin has been at the forefront of parapsychology and consciousness research. As chief scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, he has published over 300 scientific papers and authored acclaimed books including Real Magic and his forthcoming The Science of Magic. Radin has held research appointments at Bell Labs, Princeton, and SRI International, and he has been featured in The Telepathy Tapes, bringing his groundbreaking work on psychic phenomena to a wider audience.In this electrifying conversation, Radin and Faust unravel the deeper truths behind the CIA's Stargate program and the lasting shadow of MK Ultra. They explore the clash between materialist science and quantum reality, the emerging genetic research on psychic ability, and the controversial intersection of Big Tech, societal control, and human consciousness. From telepathy among non-speaking autistic individuals to the scientific basis for what ancient traditions called “magic,” Radin makes the case that consciousness may be fundamental to reality itself.In this episode:Stargate vs. MK Ultra: Psychic espionage, mind control, and the hidden history of government programsHavana Syndrome: The controversial phenomenon Radin says points to something far more sinisterThe Telepathy Tapes: Inside the fight over telepathy experiments with non-speaking autistic individualsScientists & Psi: Why so many elite academics secretly admit strange phenomena have happened to themPsi & Human Creativity: How psychic experiences may have shaped science, art, and religionQuantum Reality Clash: What happens when classical physics collides with consciousnessThe Psychic Genome: Could genetic and epigenetic research unlock hidden abilities?Next-Gen Psi Tech: From lab studies to speculation about enhancing intuition itselfReal Magic Revealed: Ancient rituals meet modern science in Radin's groundbreaking workTaboo & Suppression: How institutions and culture keep psi in the shadowsExeter University's Masters in Magic: Academia finally dares to study the mysticalAlgorithms of Control: From Cold War experiments to Big Tech's digital cage… and much more!

For anyone who has seen Michael B. Jordan's excellent new movie Sinners, it's clear that any sort of deal with the devil - what has become known as the Faustian Bargain - is still very much alive. So relevant, in fact, that cultural historian Ed Simon has a book, just out in paperback, about its enduring relevance entitled Devil's Contract. From Shakespeare and Goethe to Thomas Mann and Donald Trump, Simon argues, the Faustian Bargain is more than just a literary trope. In fact, he suggests, it is as relevant today, in our social media age of the Mephistophelian Donald Trump as it was in the German Reformation of the equally populist Martin Luther. The Art of a Deal with the Devil. And we all know how it ends. Go and see Sinners. Spoiler warning: not without the spilling of a great deal of innocent blood. 1. The Faustian Bargain is Fundamentally About Irrationality Despite knowing the terrible consequences, Faust signs the contract anyway. As Simon explains, "if you know that the devil is real and that the Devil collects souls at the end of your life, then like you'd never sign on the dotted line. And yet these characters continually do." This captures our human tendency to act against our own best interests.2. The Contract Makes It Modern What distinguishes the Faust legend from earlier devil stories is the literal paperwork. Simon argues this bureaucratic element - signing on the dotted line - transforms it into a distinctly modern tale about legal systems, capitalism, and bureaucracy. It's not just about temptation; it's about documentation.3. AI is Our Latest Faustian Bargain Simon sees artificial intelligence as having "a shockingly obvious kind of Faustian gloss" - from the magic of conjuring something from nothing to the environmental destruction of massive server farms. We're trading our future for technological convenience, knowing the costs.4. Trump is Mephistopheles, Not Faust In Simon's reading, Trump isn't the one making the deal - he's the devil others make deals with. JD Vance becomes the perfect example: fully aware of what Trump is, yet "willing to seemingly abandon whatever principles he may have had in the past... for power alone."5. Sometimes Faust Wins (But Usually Doesn't) While Goethe's Faust finds redemption and salvation, most versions end badly. The American "Yankee Faust" tries to trick the devil but still gets his house burned down. The lesson? You might think you're clever enough to beat the devil, but the house always wins.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Author and longtime collaborator with Dr. Joe Dispenza, Tim Shields, explores consciousness, creativity, and the healing power of surrender on episode 216 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.For years, Shields worked closely with Dr. Joe Dispenza, serving as author, writing coach, and literary collaborator on projects including the bestseller Becoming Supernatural. Today, he continues to bring his passion for consciousness and storytelling into new arenas, currently collaborating with Dr. Zach Bush while developing his own books and teachings. His work connects the worlds of healing, creativity, and personal transformation, always returning to the core principles of surrender, trust, and human potential.In this expansive conversation, Faust and Tim dig into surrender, trust, and the transformation chamber of pain and healing. They explore generational trauma, subconscious programming, and how rituals and flow states unlock creativity. From the lessons of Dr. Joe's retreats to visions of collective consciousness and even the mysteries of extraterrestrial life, this episode is a journey into both the personal and the cosmic.In this episode:
Legendary filmmaker, researcher and author of The Creature from Jekyll Island, G. Edward Griffin exposes the Federal Reserve, the Rothschild banking dynasty, and the war between collectivism and individualism on episode 215 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.For decades, Griffin has been a pioneering voice in alternative media, documenting the hidden forces behind central banking, crony capitalism, and political control. As the founder of the Red Pill Expo, he continues to challenge official narratives while connecting the dots between the rise of the Federal Reserve, the spread of collectivist and communistic ideology, and the steady erosion of individual rights — all while calling for a return to liberty, free markets, and personal sovereignty.In this wide-ranging conversation, Faust and Mr. Griffin trace the secret history of money, the banking elite's grip on economic power, and the psychological warfare used to keep populations compliant. They break down the clash between collectivism and individualism, the dangers of fiat currency and a cashless society, and why education and grassroots action are essential to reclaim freedom in a system built for control.In this episode:
Katy Faust discusses the importance of stable, biological family units, asserting that children have a fundamental right to their mother and father. She critiques the cultural shift toward sexual autonomy, which she sees as undermining children's well-being.Through personal stories and data, Faust explores how intentional family disruptions, like surrogacy or divorce, harm children more than tragic losses. She advocates for policies that prioritise children's interests, urging a reevaluation of modern family ideals.Katy Faust is Founder and President of Them Before Us, a global children's rights nonprofit and the co-author of the book of the same title. She publishes and speaks widely on why marriage and family are matters of justice for children. She is on the advisory board for the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship. Katy helped design the teen edition of CanaVox which studies sex, marriage, and relationships from a natural law perspective. She and her co-author detailed their philosophy of worldview transmission in Raising Conservative Kids in a Woke City. Pro-Child Politics is her latest book. Katy and her husband are raising their four children in Seattle.You can purchase Katie's Latest book, "Pro-Child Politics" here: Australia: https://www.booktopia.com.au/pro-child-politics-katy-faust/book/9798888457085.html?srsltid=AfmBOoql6cQ1SUqvapB4Ny4YqSH1AwOZWfJE3vSyaw-srdXT-AC6hCMfWorldwide:https://www.amazon.com/Pro-Child-Politics-Cultural-Economic-National/dp/B0D6LT3ZB3Sign up to John's newsletter here: https://johnanderson.net.au/contact/--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Conversations feature John Anderson, former Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, interviewing the world's foremost thought leaders about today's pressing social, cultural and political issues.John believes proper, robust dialogue is necessary if we are to maintain our social strength and cohesion.

Wie immer beginnen wir unser Programm mit einem Rückblick auf einige aktuelle Ereignisse. Unser erstes Thema ist der Gipfel der Shanghaier Organisation für Zusammenarbeit, der die Einheit der Regierungschefs von China, Indien und Russland demonstrierte. In unserer zweiten Story sprechen wir über den 80. Jahrestag der Kapitulation Japans, die eine Ära der Bündnisse und des Freihandels einläutete. Die Erinnerungen an den Zweiten Weltkrieg verblassen – ebenso wie der Konsens darüber, wie eine Wiederholung vermieden werden kann. Danach sprechen wir über eine wissenschaftliche Studie, die neue Beweise für die Vermischung von Homo sapiens und Neandertalern liefert. Die Studie datiert den bisher angenommenen Zeitrahmen für diese Vermischung um etwa 100.000 Jahre zurück. Und zum Schluss sprechen wir über das Beer Mile World Classic-Rennen, das vor Kurzem in Lissabon, der Hauptstadt Portugals, stattfand. Der Rest des Programms ist der deutschen Sprache und Kultur gewidmet. Die heutige Grammatiklektion konzentriert sich auf The Subjunctive II Part 3 (Past Conditional). Wir sprechen darüber, dass es in Berlin zu wenig Möglichkeiten gibt, im Sommer baden zu gehen. Die Freibäder sind überfüllt, und auch die umliegenden Seen sind an heißen Tagen total überlaufen. Nun sollen Schwimmbäder auf Hausdächern gebaut werden. Zu unserer Redewendung der Woche – Auf eigene Faust – passt die Geschichte von Laura Dekker. Sie war der jüngste Mensch, der je die Welt umsegelt hat – ein Rekord, der bis heute hält. Aber diese Reise war nicht ohne Risiko. China, Indien und Russland demonstrieren Geschlossenheit gegenüber dem Westen Vergessene Lehren der Weltkriege bedrohen die Weltordnung Neue Forschungsergebnisse widerlegen etablierte Ansicht über Vermischung von Homo sapiens und Neandertalern Corey Bellemore dominiert zum fünften Mal in Folge das Beer Mile World Classic-Rennen Schwimmbäder auf den Dächern Berlins Laura Dekker, die jüngste Weltumseglerin der Welt

Kyskhet är något mycket mer än sexuell avhållsamhet. Wera von Essen lyfter en underskattad dygd. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Jag återkommer ofta till en jesuitpaters ord om kyskhet. Han sa: ”kyskhet är att bevara den andres hemlighet”.Men vad innebär det egentligen? Talar vi om sexuell avhållsamhet, celibat, eller talar vi om hur man behandlar andra människor rent generellt?För man kan vara sexuellt avhållsam, men okysk, precis som man kan vara sexuellt aktiv, och kysk. Celibatet utgör ingen garant för kyskhet, man kan kränka en persons integritet på andra sätt, eller ännu värre: använda celibatet som en sorts täckmantel för att begå sexuella övergrepp, en förödelse vi tvingats bevittna i katolska kyrkan de senaste decennierna.Detta är en fråga som den norske katolske biskopen Erik Varden inte duckar för i sin bok Homo Castus (2025), en långessä om kyskhet. En teologisk och idéhistorisk genomgång som ibland innebär en ganska komplicerad och modig brottningsmatch med de tyngre aspekterna av denna dygd.Att träda in i en andlig gemenskap är att ganska snabbt upptäcka att den renhet man sökte kräver en daglig kamp och stort tålamod med sina egna och andras brister. Människan förblir nämligen mänsklig, och utan att ursäkta de brott som begåtts måste man någonstans förlika sig med att livet och tron är något olösligt, ja, ibland närmast förnuftsvidrigt.Redan de gamla Psaltarpsalmerna gestaltar verkliga brott, krig och våld, ändå, eller just därför, sjungs de i kyrkor runt om i hela världen, som en vacker påminnelse om vårt eget potentiella fall, och om nåden som räddar.Bibeln består främst av människor som förvandlas snarare än att vara fullkomliga.Centrala gestalter som den samariska kvinnan, Paulus, Maria Magdalena med flera, erfor verkliga omvändelser tack vare sina erfarenheter. Och den förlorade sonen, som varit minst sagt okysk, som levt i sus och dus, välkomnas med öppna armar av fadern när han återvänder hem. Den dygdige och återhållsamme brodern upplever detta som djupt orättvist, han blir, som så ofta är fallet i Bibeln, svartsjuk och avundsjuk.Detta för tankarna till den katolska läran om pro existens – livsbejakandet, som ju också kan inneha en erotisk dimension. Liv må vara något oförutsägbart, ibland kaotiskt i sin intensitet, och impulsen att kväsa det ligger därmed nära till hands. På så vis slipper man ju göra fel. ”Låt inte ditt liv bli sterilt”, hade en munk sagt till Varden när denne gick in i trappistkloster i Norge. För kyskheten är inte steril, tvärtom, den innebär snarare att begär och passion riktas och tas till vara.Och det är svårt att vara ödmjuk om man inte själv kämpat med sexualitetens krafter. Om man bara stryper dessa riskerar högmodet att ta över. ”Förtrogenhet med vår egen svaghet lär oss ha medlidande med andra”, skriver Erik Varden. Men han påminner också om att vissa destruktiva lidelser kan svältas ihjäl, det gäller att medvetandegöra dem och avvisa dem. Här menas inte bara lidelse av sexuell art, utan brister av alla de slag. Jag tror att det är viktigt att bekämpa sina brister, men bara med vetskapen om att man är älskad med dem. ”Var inte så hård mot dig själv”, skriver den brasilianska författaren Clarice Lispector till sin syster i ett brev. ”Man vet aldrig vilken brist som håller samman vår byggnad i sin helhet.”Den ungerske författaren Sandor Márai (1900-1989) beskriver i sina dagböcker, översatta av Ervin Rosenberg, vad han ser som en generell metafysisk skillnad mellan väst och öst – han observerar några buddhistiska munkar som han tycker vänder sig bort från världen och håller en solid distans till allt vad begär heter. Han jämför dem med Faust som inte kunde låta bli att sluta ett avtal med djävulen. Márai skriver: ”Han var åtminstone nyfiken”.Det är en smått provokativ och lekfull passage, men denna nyfikenhet har, kan man hävda, på många sätt och på gott och ont, format den judeo-kristna civilisationen. En så kallad upptäckarlust, ofta exploaterande, har varit närmast outtömlig och lika genial som rastlös.I den judiska mystiken, kabbalah, talar man mycket om förverkligandets natur genom de olika stadierna i Livets Träd. Människans begär och önskningar passerar från det inre till det yttre och blir till materia. Begäret ska inte alltså kväsas, utan förädlas. Detta genom självkännedom och genom att avlägsna de ytligare begären som står i vägen för de djupare. Att hänge sig åt kortlivad tillfredställelse hindrar oss både från att förstå vad vi egentligen begär, men blockerar också vägen för det djupare begärets materialisering.Ökenfäderna, kristendomens första eremiter som levde i den egyptiska öknen på 200-talet, trodde på det som stod i Bibeln på ett konkret sätt. De materialiserade tron genom sina egna liv. De hade inga så kallade andliga upplevelser eller någon spännande identitet kring dem. Den helige Antonius (f. 251) som beskrivs som den förste att bilda en liten klostergemenskap ute i öknen, uppfattade till exempel Kristi uppmaning att göra sig av med sina ägodelar och följa Honom på ett bokstavligt vis – han gjorde det helt enkelt bara. Det som senare kom att uppfattas som abstraktioner hade då en annan innebörd, det vill säga, distinktionen mellan metafor och materiell förankring var inte så stor som i det moderna samhället.Erik Varden nämner i Homo Castus agustinermunken Richard av Sankt Victor (f. 1110) vars devis Ubi amor, ibi oculus betyder: »Där kärlek är, där är ett öga som ser.« Liknande tankar om kärlek har de franska 1900-talsfilosoferna Simone Weil och Emanuel Lévinas, kärlek är odelad uppmärksamhet gentemot en annan människa, där dennas ansikte får framträda, istället för att låsas fast i definitioner.Att bevara någons hemlighet innebär att man tänker sig att varje människa har ett eget inre rum som bara är till för Gud. Det är bara Han som har hela bilden av den människans existens, vår kunskap om andra är ytterst begränsad.En kysk blick är således uppmärksam, men inte klåfingrig. En hållning som också går ut på att inte härleda saker och ting alltför mycket till individualitet, utan snarare odla dygder som grundats i den större Saken. Kvalitéer som trofasthet och respekt bygger enligt ett kyskt synsätt mer på löftet man gett till Gud, än på de temporära känslor man har gentemot andra människor. En sorts underkastelse om man så vill, där människan söker inlemmas i en tradition istället för att själv vara utgångspunkten och utgöra världens centrum. En hållning som kan appliceras på bildningstraditionen, eller på litteraturkritiken, där verkshöjden förblir viktigare än författaren som person.Ett symptom på klinisk depression är minskad initativförmåga, lust och glädje. I förlängningen betyder detta faktiskt minskat begär. Det mänskliga begäret är något friskt som gör oss kreativa. Det gäller bara att se till så att det blommar och bär frukt.Wera von Essen, författare och översättareLitteratur:Erik Varden Homo Castus, översättning Hillevi Norburg, Silentium skrifter 2025Clarice Lispector, Brev i urval, översättning Wera von Essen, Tranan 2020Sándor Márai, Dagbok 1984-1989, översättning Ervin Rosenberg, Tranan 2014
Margherita (the trapped and conditioned feminine consciousness), has lost her reason due to Faust's abandonment and the death of her (divine) mother, since the sleeping potion had deleterious effects. Driven to insanity, the distressed Margherita, having born Faust's child, drowns it in a pond to spite her absent lover. Faust is driven by remorse to seek her in the bowels of a prison with the help of Mefistofele, who provides the key to the initiatic mysteries and the means to unlock wisdom from the well of the world, the bottomless pit or abyss where knowledge must be found, discerned, and consciously integrated. Such a descent into the lower worlds is a common trope within mythological narratives, whereby the warrior (human) soul (Tiphereth) must face the terrors of hell and redeem the fallen consciousness (Sophia) from perdition. Such allegories reflect what Samael Aun Weor called the Ninth Sphere, the transformed and divinely-inspired sexuality between husband and wife who conquer desire and practice alchemy, chastity, or sexual transmutation. However, such a path is fraught with pain and hardship, since lust is difficult to extirpate, and “Bitterness”—(which defines many marriages)—“lies in the (alchemical) cup of even the best love: thus it arouses longing for the Superman; thus it arouses your thirst, creator (alchemist)” (Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra). Learn how to transmute the pain of the Ninth Sphere through a study of the 21st Arcanum of the Tarot, known as the Fool in conventional decks, whereby Margherita, the Essence trapped in our defects or ego, can be liberated towards the higher worlds of the initiatic path.

It's time for one of those huge episodes. Well, it's a 3 parter anyways. The 90s was a stinker of a decade for horror. That's what history tells us, well lets investigate our selves because the old saying goes that history is written by the victors and horror always wins.

Dr. Bold beginnt auf eigene Faust in den Mordfällen im Sanatorium zu ermitteln. Dazu sucht er eines Abends erneut den Wasserturm auf. Dort angekommen, beugt sich Bold über eine Luke, erhält einen Stoss, und der Deckel über ihm schliesst sich. Bold sitzt im eiskalten Wasser in der Falle. Wer das Hörspiel am Radio hören will: Freitag, 29.08.2025, 20.00 Uhr, Radio SRF 1 Dr. Johannes Bold verspricht sich von seiner neuen Tätigkeit als Röntgenarzt in dem idyllisch gelegenen Waldsanatorium eine eher erholsame Zeit. Doch schon bald nach seiner Ankunft beginnen die Aufregungen: Oberschwester Anna liegt tot in der Pumpenkammer des Turms, der die Klinik mit Wasser versorgt. Ein aus der Fensterfassung gebrochener Stein hat sie am Hinterkopf getroffen. Ein Unglücksfall? Möglich. Aber auch ein merkwürdiger Zufall, denn Anna hatte tags zuvor das Fehlen von zehn Ampullen Morphium im Giftschrank entdeckt und keinen Zweifel daran gelassen, dass sie sich sehr schnell Gewissheit über den Dieb verschaffen könne. Hat sie deshalb sterben müssen? Zwei weitere Todesfälle halten die Ärzte des Sanatoriums in Atem. Nach dem Morphium ist nun auch die Flasche mit Streptomycin verschwunden, die zur Behandlung des Rechtsanwalts Dr. Bergius verwendet worden war. Bergius hatte sich schon auf dem Wege der Besserung befunden; dann plötzliche Apathie, rapider Verfall – Exitus. Oberarzt Bierstein hat einen Verdacht: Könnte jemand das Streptomycin mit Morphium versetzt haben, um den Patienten zu töten? Schwester Inge scheint zu wissen, wer die Medikamentenflasche genommen hat, und will dies Dr. Bold abends am Wasserturm mitteilen. Aber dazu kommt es nicht mehr. Bold findet sie – erstochen mit einem Skalpell. Wer in der Klinik, fragt sich Dr. Bold, hatte Grund, zwei Krankenschwestern und einen Patienten umzubringen? Ausser ihm selbst waren bei der letzten Punktion des Anwalts Bergius anwesend: Dr. Bierstein, Dr. Pinkus, Fräulein Dr. von Stagg, die inzwischen ermordete Schwester Inge sowie Schwester Maria. Einer von ihnen ein Massenmörder? Unvorstellbar. Bold und Stationsärztin von Stagg verabreden sich am Wasserturm, um ein Fenster ausfindig zu machen, hinter dem sie am Abend vor Annas Tod eine Taschenlampe flackern sahen. Hatte die Oberschwester gewusst, in wessen Zimmer sie das gestohlene Morphium suchen musste? Mit: Edgar Wiesemann (Dr. Johannes Bold), Monika Koch (Petra Radiess), Wolfgang Rottsieper (Nogess, Kriminalkommissar), Walter Kiesler (Prof. Dr. Bierstein), Wolfram Besch (Dr. Pinkus), Rosel Schaefer (Dr. Edeltraud von Stagg) ___________________ Hörspielbearbeitung: Hans-Georg Berthold – Musik: Hans Moeckel – Tontechnik: Ernst Neukomm, Vreni Rupp, A.-R.

This week on The Literary Life Podcast we wrap up the book discussion portion of our series on Edith Wharton's The Age of Innocence. Today, Angelina and Thomas begin with chapter 22, going through the significant scenes all the way to the end of the book. They talk about the ways in which this book is an elegy, as well as the continued glimpses of “the family” as the main character. They also discuss the ways in which May shows herself to be more cunning that she pretends in contrast to Ellen's lack of pretense. Other topics of discussion are America's relationship with foreign influence, Archer's desire to live in an illusion, and the recurring theme of “Faust.” They conclude with some thoughts on this book as a parable of American culture. Join us next week for an episode on the film adaptation of this book with our film guru, Atlee Northmore.

A few months ago I published the first of a series of episodes honoring “Over the Top Sopranos,” which presented French repertoire performed by a batch of supremely distressed divas. And today is a follow-up, again featuring “sopranos en détresse” in which I spread the net even wider, featuring every type of soprano from perky coloratura to hefty dramatic and everything in between. The characters represented range from reformed Alexandrian courtesans to vampiric Hungarian murderers. And the chronological spread is wide, too: we sample a wide variety of singers from Félia Litvinne, recorded in 1902, to Anna Caterina Antonacci, recorded in 2009. In between we hear, among others, Germaine Féraldy, Beverly Sills, Emma Calvé, Lucia Popp, Christiane Eda-Pierre (pictured), Patricia Brooks, Germaine Martinelli, Jacqueline Brumaire, Carol Vaness, Nelly Miricioiu, and Janine Micheau. Works range from the familiar (Mignon by Thomas, Manon by Massenet, and Faust by Gounod) to the obscure (Ivan IV by Bizet, Salammbô by Ernest Reyer, Erzsébet by Charles Chaynes, and Virginie by Alfred Bruneau).

Former U.S. Marine, whistleblower, and frontline activist Ken O'Keefe @TJPKenOKeefe exposes the Israel-Palestine conflict, war propaganda, and state power on episode 214 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.Ken O'Keefe is a former Marine turned human-rights activist known for the Gaza Freedom Flotilla and his daring “human shield” missions in Iraq. For years, he's confronted official narratives on war, sovereignty, and media manipulation — bringing raw firsthand experience and an unapologetic moral compass to some of the most uncomfortable conversations in geopolitics.In this conversation, Faust and Ken get specific about Gaza and the West Bank, how manufactured narratives shape public perception, and why free speech matters when history cuts against the grain. Ken traces his path from combat to dissent, calls out U.S. involvement abroad, argues for state sovereignty — even secession and state-run banks — and makes the case that empathy, love, and the family unit are the ultimate antidotes to a demoralized culture.In this episode:

Professor Kozlowski tackles the preeminent philosopher of Enlightenment philosophy: Immanuel Kant. In this lecture, we'll discuss the basic principles underlying Deontological Ethics (including an explanation of the Categorical Imperative), before moving on to appreciate the wry dark humor and cutting insights of his political essay "Perpetual Peace."Our readings include excerpts from the Fundamental Principles of the Metaphysics of Morals (Or "Groundwork...") and the complete essay "Perpetual Peace."Additional readings this week include a healthy portion of sturm und drang: Goethe's Faust and Schiller's The Robbers, as well as the behemoth of Romantic Political Philosophy: Hegel's The Philosophy of Right. (Proceed with caution - Hegel is not for the faint of heart...) As for today's video game recommendation, we're going with the Gamecube-era JRPG: Tales of Symphonia for its unflinching deontological morality. Take that, Final Fantasy X!If you're interested in Professor Kozlowski's other online projects, check out his website: professorkozlowski.wordpress.com

On 21 July, the opera world lost one of its finest tenors, David Rendall, at the age of 76. Rendall began his career in the mid-seventies as a lyric tenore di grazia specializing in bel canto and in the music of Mozart. His voice expanded and deepened over the years to encompass French roles (Des Grieux, Faust, Werther), 19th century Italian repertoire from Rodolfo to Otello, and finally Wagner roles from Lohengrin to Tristan. This episode explores his origins from his earliest recordings made before he ever considered a career in music, to live operatic recordings made between 1975 and 2006. Rendall's family was a deeply musical one: his wife, Diana Montague, is a legendary mezzo-soprano, and their son Huw Montague Rendall is one of the brightest lights in the present-day operatic firmament. The episode includes Rendall singing song cycles by Britten and Schubert, and operatic rarities by Rossini and Alfano. In all of the music offered, David Rendall's impeccable technique, patrician musicianship, and deep expressive connection to the music are heard to full effect. His memory will surely be a blessing to all who knew, heard, loved, and admired him. Many thanks to Huw for his advice in the preparation of this episode.

Confira nesta edição do JR 24 Horas: O influenciador Hytalo Santos e o companheiro dele, presos por exploração e exposição de crianças e adolescentes na internet, foram transferidos para o Centro de Detenção Provisória, em São Paulo. Eles estavam presos em Carapicuíba, na Grande São Paulo. No início da tarde desta segunda-feira (18), eles foram encaminhados para o CDP II de Pinheiros. E ainda: Faustão deixa UTI e vai para quarto de internação, em São Paulo.
Through the gifts of his newfound diabolic companion, Faust recuperates his vitality and youth, capitalizing on his new abilities in the effort to seduce Margherita, a beautiful but naive young woman from town. To assist in the magician's sensual escapades and dangerous liaison, Mefistofele provides him with a sleeping potion to drug Margherita's mother and therefore avoid detection during the lovers' tryst. The couple declares their love despite the rocky foundations of their infatuous and hastened affair. Afterward, the devil transports Faust to the top of a dark (and bald) mountain (sparsely populated by trees) to partake in a Witches' Sabbath: a Satanic ritual characterized by discordance, chaos, violence, lust, and power. Such dramatizations reflect the tremendous reality of and relationship between seduction and black magic: how the passionate fulfillment of lust and desire are the gateway to spiritual destruction and the development of egotistical powers. While modern people laugh and mock such metaphysical phenomena as the consequence and cause of blind fear, superstition, and ignorance, the truth is that such symbols demonstrate how anyone who cultivates lust with mystical devotion ends up as a demon, a being divorced from the eternal but awakened with powers in, of, and for evil. Such powers are driven by selfishness and produce terror and pain, emotions that are so masterfully depicted in Boito's terrifying music and choruses in this act. Learn how to conquer lust and to comprehend the essential nature of witchcraft, sorcery, and the machinations of the Black Lodge (the congregations of infernal entities) so as to enact spiritual self-defense and the protection of our spirituality from dark forces.

Consciousness researcher and author Mark Gober beams in to question mainstream science, from cosmology and UFOs to spirituality and the nature of reality, on episode 213 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.Mark Gober is the acclaimed author of the Upside Down series, covering consciousness, politics, economics, UFOs, medicine, and cosmology. A Princeton graduate and former Silicon Valley partner, Gober has served since 2019 on the board of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, a leading research organization exploring consciousness and human potential. He also created the podcast Where Is My Mind?, which investigates scientific evidence for telepathy, the afterlife, and psychic phenomena. His work bridges science and spirituality while challenging the official narratives we've been taught.In this provocative conversation, Faust and Mark explore the holes in mainstream cosmology, the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy, the role of NASA and space agencies, and the deeper spiritual consequences of false models of reality. From UFO phenomena to near-death experiences and the idea of soul traps, Gober lays out why questioning science may be the key to understanding consciousness and existence itself.In this episode:

ET contact researcher and acclaimed author Mary Rodwell shares stunning cases of starseeds, hybrids, and psychic children — exploring how alien encounters and telepathic downloads are reshaping human consciousness — in episode 212 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.Mary Rodwell is a globally recognized expert on the UFO and contact phenomenon. Founder of the Australian Close Encounter Resource Network (ACERN), she's a former nurse and midwife turned hypnotherapist who has spent decades working with experiencers — especially children — who report telepathic communication, star languages, past-life memories, and multidimensional contact. Over the course of her career, she has interviewed more than 3,000 individuals from around the world who claim contact with non-human intelligences. Her groundbreaking books Awakening and The New Human chronicle hundreds of extraordinary case studies that challenge mainstream science and psychology.In this profound and far-reaching conversation, Faust and Mary explore the transformative nature of contact experiences — especially among children with unusual gifts and alien memories. From alien technologies to hypnosis and past-life recall, the discussion unveils how contact is evolving humanity's perception of reality, spirituality, and our role in the cosmos. Mary details her most astonishing cases, revealing how trauma often becomes a gateway to awakening — and how love is the ultimate catalyst for consciousness.In this episode:

It's fascinating to look at the entire creative evolution of an artist - how they started and where they are now. Of course, looking at what's been going on in their life, can feel quite invasive and voyeuristic, like prying into the inner sanctum of life, but hey, all in the name of research! Music and art (although I'm by no means an expert) often feels subjective and open to interpretation and honestly, for me, I love it when I'm challenged to think about what it means to me. This brings me on to relatability. Perhaps it's now an overused word that has been diluted of its relevance and meaning. But is it important for an artist to create work that its audience will find relatable in some way? Will it help the audience make their own interpretations if they can relate to it? Or is speaking with truth and honesty equally or more important? And what about good old fashioned escapism? What does that connection between artist and audience look like? I don't know why the work of my guest today makes me ask these questions! Maybe it's because his work often feels like it is accessing what's in the back of his mind but created in a way that feeds my own interpretations and connects in a way that tunes into my own empathy.His art was described as “loose and raw that straightaway imprints itself on the human imagination”. This is interesting because it is the consistency of that rawness - and honesty - that also runs through his music which again gets my imagination fired up. I hope you enjoy this fascinating chat with James Johnston, who came to prominence in the early 90's with Gallon Drunk and has also played with PJ Harvey, The Bad Seeds, Faust and Lydia Lunch as well as releasing solo and collaborative work of his own. He started painting in 2017 which is just going from strength to strength.https://www.iwannajumplikedeedee.comI Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee is the music podcast that does music interviews differently.

This conversation delves into the life and legacy of Robert Johnson, the legendary blues musician, and the myth surrounding his supposed deal with the devil at the crossroads. The discussion explores the origins of this myth, its implications in music history, and the broader cultural phenomenon of the 27 Club, where many famous musicians have died at the age of 27. The conversation also touches on theological perspectives regarding the soul and the historical figure of Faust, who is often associated with making deals with the devil. Ultimately, the dialogue navigates the line between truth and legend in the context of these enduring stories. 00:00 The Legacy of Robert Johnson05:21 The Crossroads Legend11:35 The Myth of Selling Your Soul20:59 The Mysterious Death of Robert Johnson27:29he Legend of Robert Johnson31:18 Historical Figures and the Devil's Pact40:16 The 27 Club: Fame and Early Death42:25 Theological Perspectives on Selling Your Soul49:03 Legends vs. Reality
Like Beethoven, Arrigo Boito composed only one opera (Mefistofele), yet whose mystical allegory, musical power, and masterful lyricism continues to resonate with audiences worldwide. This clever yet profound opera also inspires, alarms, and, quite frequently, amuses. Based on medieval legends and Goethe's play Faust, this work depicts the famous and jaded scholar who makes a bet with the devil: to acquire occult knowledge and faculties at the cost of his soul, or to conquer temptation in the service of the sacred. If Faust can overcome passion, power, and desire, he can enter the divine mysteries and spiritual hierarchies where true peace, realization, and understanding is to be found. Surprisingly, all of this occurs under the auspices of the Transcendent, for without divinely-sanctioned temptation and adversity, there is no development, mastery, or faith, like Jehovah approving of Satan's afflictions upon Job to prove his candidacy to sainthood (Job 1:12). Or as described by Samael Aun Weor throughout his writings, “Temptation is fire. Triumph over temptation is light.” Discover how an initiate enters the secret path to liberation by facing the necessary forces of opposition and resistance—the mysterious and instructive tests of Lucifer (“the light-maker”)—so as to acquire profound self-knowledge and the wielding of esoteric powers with ethics, purity, and wisdom.
