In the Afrocentric podcast episode "Freestyle 1: GET UP AND VOTE YOUNG PEOPLE, NO CAP," Morgan emphasizes the importance of voting in the black community and the history of voting rights. The goal of this episode is to address the concern(s) of Black Baby Boomers that fear younger generations will not carry on the tradition of voting or take pride in voting. Our Generation pushes back against this narrative, and we argue that Generation Z has high voting rates and is becoming more involved in politics. This episode also addresses modern attempts to divide the black votes, including the Black men to Conservative Christian Pipeline. This episode is a call to action, it is imperative that our community starts educating, rallying, and supporting the topics like black voting and black politics on a local, statewide, and national level. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theafrocentricpodcast/message

We had the pleasure of interviewing Barny Fletcher over Zoom video!London artist Barny Fletcher has released his new mixtape, JETPACK!Barny Fletcher has seen a meteoric rise since his debut, garnering support from BBC's Radio 1, Australia's Triple J, and features everywhere from a collaboration on the latest DJ Shadow album, a Euro 2020 fashion design campaign with Umbro, as well as inclusion on the soundtrack for Michaela Coel's HBO series I May Destroy You. Today's new single comes on the heels of previous track "Backstroke," which landed on Spotify's New Music Friday and has already racked up 250K Spotify plays since its release last month. Barny first started teasing the forthcoming JETPACK mixtape late last year with "Breakfast at Isabel's," which featured a playful video co-directed by Barny himself, and then followed with track "90s Baby" this summer. A budding pop prodigy with undeniable charisma, Barny Fletcher first debuted in 2019 with singles "Christ Flow" and "Blu Skyes," which set the stage for his hotly-tipped debut project, CANVAS2033, and its follow-up, BOZO. The releases sparked support from BBC Radio 1 on their 'Introducing Playlist,' leading to a prestigious performance slot at the BBC Introducing Stage at Radio 1 Big Weekend. He has also played a sold out London headline show as well as festival appearances at Lollapalooza Paris, Reading & Leeds, and The Great Escape.Growing up in a small Somerset, UK village to a photographer father, filmmaker mother, and very little else to occupy his hyperactive nature other than an eclectic record collection, Barny delved into the catalogs of artists such as The Kinks, Eminem, Bob Dylan, and Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, a chaotic fusion that still influences him today. Getting his start uploading weekly tracks to SoundCloud, Barny's sound has evolved into a kaleidoscopic mix of hip-hop, R&B, pop, and disco, alongside a distinct lyrical take on the absurdity of the everyday. He has landed on Spotify's NMF UK playlist 7 times, has seen Front Left, Our Generation, and Free Form (including the cover!) Spotify placements, as well as on Apple Music's New Music Daily. Outside of music, Barny enjoys developing his fashion brand 'Verlimont,' a passion project of which he enjoys sourcing quality materials and even hand-applying finishing touches himself.

Pastor Zack Strong The Bewitching of a Generation   Text: Galatians 3.1, Deuteronomy 6.1, Judges 2.10 Bewitched- cast a spell over, attract or interest someone a lot so that you have power to influence them, to charm, to fascinate Foolish- one that has become dull and sluggish of mind, stupid, reckless in thinking We've become a generation that has built upon a truth but not the truth. You can be religious and not a Christian. Religious people do religious activity. You can be religious but not godly. Religion without the pursuit and hunger for Jesus is not Christianity. Pursuit and hunger shown through demonstration, in the passion of our worship, and in our passion for actions that pleases God. Three things said of Peter: -You've been with Him -You're of Him -You sound like Him The enemy's assignment is to pull us out of our position. He takes a truth out of the truth to deceive. The truth has been watered down so much that only a connoisseur knows the real thing. If we don't get the first four commandments right, we'll never get the last six right. There's a difference between insulated and isolated. Insulated keeps the world from touching us but isolated keeps us from touching the world. Six Dangers of Our Generation -religion without the Holy Ghost -Christianity without Christ -forgiveness without repentance -salvation without regeneration -politics without God -Heaven without hell

Changing My Child's Behavior There's a reason for this. Young people have been leaving the church in droves. This exodus, to use a biblical term, doesn't seem to be slowing down. There are reasons for this also. So the question is why? Why are our young people leaving the church? What can we do as parents to keep our own kids in taking part in this rush for the door? Even more importantly, how can we keep them from abandoning what we and they have always believed to be the foundation of moral and spiritual truth? Today, we'll be peeling back this onion on a quest to find the truth for a new generation with a special guest, Dr.  Alex McFarland. Discussing Church for Our Generation with Alex McFarland As a Christian apologist, evangelist, author, religion and culture analyst, and advocate for Biblical truth, Dr. Alex McFarland speaks worldwide. He has preached in over 2000 churches throughout North America and many more around the world. He also speaks at Christian events and conferences, debates, and other venues to teach biblical truths and preach the gospel.

All my all my guests are special. This one's ever got Daniel with us. Once again, for what the third, fourth, fifth time, the fourth time, I've started, but I forgot already one of those times, one of those times. 00:01:13Crazy false flag event is happening. Every time we do a podcast episode and I want to get I want to go straight to the point with you and I want to ask you a question that I've been thinking a lot about lately and I don't know if you can answer it. If you don't feel comfortable, ask that you not answering it. That's fine. But I need to know. How do you know if you know me. I was I want to listen, listen, to music serious stuff. I'm serious. Don't listen, is in. This is going to be crazy. Bro. Kofi is Nicolas Cage. Part of the child pedophile ring. 00:01:51That is a very tough question that I don't know if I want the answer to bro. You really don't know if I want the answer to that question. I've been on here watching Nicolas Cage movies, bro. And I just he's such, he's such a great actor. You know what I mean? He's such a hurry. He's a character in all his stuff. It's amazing. I don't really remember how we saw a color out of space. There's a moment you ever heard of his movie Vampire's Kiss or he acts like a vampire and all that stuff. Bro. It's one of this is one of the I don't know if you've ever searched up like his scenes in the stuff that he's known for for like his overacting and we're not at the movie Vampire's Kiss of the movie where he straight up, like I never missed anything. 00:02:44What time does a b, c d? What's that mean, that? I mean, like, where he does the crazy eyes, that's what that movie is from. That's that movie Vampire's Kiss. And in that movie, he talks with, like a little bit of a flow of like they should be any color out of space. I found this out through an interview he did. He said that that that he's related. He based that character and color out of space. Like he says all because Dad never said that. Dad said he did that character as if it was the son of another character that he played, as it's out of here. 00:03:27But he said it with a straight face and like the guy interviewing he was like my mind is blown right now. Oh my God, I would have I would have been, right? Because he's been in that. He's got like, I don't know how many houses he got. Like, you got married and divorced, within like the same day or like a day or two. I don't remember the story. That guy's life is insane. Dude. We see the latest one Pig. I have not seen play, that one's cute up and I have to see it at some point. I just been working too much. Bro, is barely enough time in the day to just sit down and watching The Cage movie. Oh, those were the good days. Dammit just finished. 00:04:15Do they make this time quick senior? How many, how many movies has Ian movies amount at Sea over a hundred movies, bro. I'm over a hundred. That's all that's a lot of movies, but then he was out buying dumb ass. Shit are cops. If I blow into this. Holy shit. Now, worth around 25 million as of May 2017, has reportedly taking film rolls left and right in order to pay off his remaining debt. So 00:05:06If we look right here cuz I am DB page. He still has an Untitled. Joe Exotic project, write another Untitled, Nicolas Cage, Amazon Studios project that got announced call the parent Lee, Lord, High fire, whatever that is. And another one called retirement plan. And butchers Crossing, which is in pre-production and post-production as we speak is based on a book. Okay. Gotcha. This President is so much stuff, bro, like the scrolling down and seeing everything. I'm like, I know of a few movies here and there, left behind Outkast. I remember watching. Joe was actually a good movie to watch while going to be a TV series brother, High Fire by Fire Wolf voice acting. 00:05:58Yeah, this guy's done so much stuff, bro. I don't know if he's like one of those actors that as much as you see him in like some piss poor project. There's there's a couple in there is like Diamonds in the Rough or you just go. No way. He made that. That's awesome. I think. 00:06:18I'm going to go ahead and stay and I think over a hundred movies. You going to tell me woman? Okay? Okay, this can go either or this can go either way. I think, maybe the reason he's been in so many movies is, maybe because he doesn't want to go into that world right into the world of the, the elite of, you know, what I mean? Right? And that's why he would have the rule that's going to make him and like that. That'll be all he's known for, right? I think it's weird because in that world, right? Like once you get that Academy Award or you've made it to like the top of the mountain at that point. It's like you can pretty much do whatever and most of the time What actors do is that they end up directing projects, they become producers their the becoming more behind-the-scenes people and they are on suck. But what's funny about Nick Cage is that he doesn't really like playing that role. He just wants to keep doing movies and do it movies to no end. 00:07:18Damn, dude, what else? What else you going to do? Like it, but it's different when they cage, because if you look at someone like, let's say Steven Seagal, right? Steven Seagal was like, Provident into like the early 90s you had as few movies, that were pretty good Under Siege hard to kill or whatever. But after that like he just hit a lull in there. That's where he's been the rest of time. Like he came out with a few movies recently. We're all he's doing is just standing there and then he just he just does that shit and whatever. But he doesn't do any action moves or nothing. He says, they're where's Nick, Cage is busting his ass trying to make a fucking piss-poor. Movie somewhat legible. Good to watch, like it's incredible. Dude. With a cage is what is a work horse? And I don't know if it's easy, it is for the dead. I will say that but he keeps it going. 00:08:1817. So that was some years back, but supposedly he blew 150 ml. 00:08:25That's a lot of fucking with him. 00:08:30Do that money, bro. Only have 50 million videos. Fucking 00:08:37I'll be chilling, bro. It's like, let's get into it. I don't know if you want to plug your social before for the three people listening to this fucking shit, unplug your socials. And so people can find out if you want to find me anywhere. It's a book you for a music gig here in Florida, bro. Exactly a tad Daniel, Rockstar. That's Daniel RC kst, or you can find me anywhere. I've done twitch streams. I've done podcast of the multitude of things. It's just responsibilities, get in the way. And I hate that sometimes, bro. Don't say that sometimes real like y'all got to do this and then it's like crap. You got like this to do and this to do. There's not enough hours in the day bro, working a full-time job and doing stuff like outside of here. It's like such a demanding role. But then again, I'm the type of person that takes on too many projects bro. Like, I'm not going to lie. I think I have a problem with hyperfixation. I really do and 00:09:37Did I told you got your bro? I've I stop this podcast for 7 months because of obviously life got in the way and 00:09:46Well, then it's a. What, what really? What real what was that? One thing in Family Guy? What really grinds? My gears really grinds my gears? Yeah, really grinds, my gears. Is that check this out? I just came across this on Reddit. 00:10:02What are make this shit on break and the leader of the Taliban has a Twitter account in the former president of the United States. Does not. How does it? How does that make you feel? Okay, so it's because we've already mentioned earlier like how these historical events just tend to happen. Whenever we decide to do an episode like the last one. I remember we did was it was the whole thing after Trump do that in January? I think it was cuz we just talked about everything and just this should show that happened. And yeah, and then and then was interesting. Now is like, not only are used to seeing this happening in Afghanistan. You like taking my perspective, for example, and, and mind you, like, I could go in this like fully and death, but just to kind of leave it short and sweet, like, in Columbia. There's been an uproar of the government wanting, you know, the people wanting, the governments of you replace. 00:11:02It's looking like it's going towards communism. It's looking like they're trying to sell. I'm going to lose. Yeah, dude, really reported on my parents went back in around like close to like May and they were there for a month and then that month that they were there, the country went into lockdown now only because of covid-19 to pass some laws that we're apparently raising the taxes. They weren't stopping collecting money from the people and people weren't working because everybody had these restrictions and all these zones and all this stuff. And you know, if people just felt like they were tired, they were tired. And there was an uproar and there were protests, there was a lot of burnings, a lot of stuff going on over there. 00:11:49And a lot of people just got tired, got out of the house, once a protest, my parents had to like, reschedule their flight back because of how bad things got. A lot of people are looking to get out of the country and a lot of people are just trying to just start some shit, you know, just because you like burning property and everything, Have you listened to the one of the latest episode of I listen to Joe Rogan's last now by listen to one of his latest episode. The one with the with the little Korean. I've seen Clips here in there. I haven't heard something April or the last couple have checked out from Joe Rogan was the one we had a Dave Chappelle and Quentin Tarantino. 00:12:33The the whole thing with her was and I honestly, bro. I think it's probably if not, his best episode aside from the Alex Jones ones, which are always going to be. Number one is pi up. There's like pie top five best episodes that he's done it and what she doesn't, she goes into depth in North Korea was actually happening there. It's pretty much a genocide and I've done episodes on North Korean strange horns, my buddy, Tom. And yes, it's all. It's all jokes and Shake is more like a comedy cuz. Yeah, but but this is real. This is real. And there is it? What pisses me off about people here in the states when they talk about oppression? And they talk about how, how they they feel Target in all this shit. There's actual places, where there's actual real oppression, where the government will. Literally, there is no protesting. There is no speaking, your mind. Your you do, as you're told, and you like it, and there's actually people who experience that every day and then 00:13:33People come here and because the president tweeted something that made my nipples hurt anything on these other places that people have no say to what happens to them early. They have no control and people take for admit, you know, they take for Advantage. Are this democracy that we live in in the in the beautiful country that we do live in aside from all the bulshit that's going on right now. And that's why with the whole covid and all this other bullshit. That's fine. You know, it's a real thing. Don't get me wrong. I know people get Gonzales, but I know a lot of people who have died from covid. It's a real thing. I'm not an anti-vaxxer. I'm Auntie mandate. Don't be fucking forcing things on people. 00:14:26Tip for what? All because if you're so fucking concerned that you're going to get a virus that you're vaccinated against. You're concerned about getting it from me. Aren't you vaccinated for the virus to be, you know what I mean, but I asked somebody right? Yeah. I said cuz they were they were bringing up being vaccinated and how we're going to do. You know, they're talking about needing vaccine vaccine reports for going Interstate right here in the US and then I do know. This is Schindler's List all of a sudden do cats say. Yeah, so they're like, oh, yeah, you know, I have no problem cuz I'm vaccinated and I'm like 00:15:11They're making people feel like this is, like, you're a hero for getting like, text Anita. It's like what I said, I said. 00:15:26I responded to the person I said. 00:15:29Do you know what it feels like to be a lab rat? I'm sorry. You do know what it feels like to be a lab rat Because by the way, the actual term for it is is immunity boosters. Not a taxi because it's not. So Excuse me while I went out to some long-ass list of things. I don't trust the government with because they also brought up the fact that I took vaccines when I was at when I was a kid. I had no choice now. And guess, what? Did you see that that report in Australia, they're going to fax. They're going to vaccinate $25 equals in, about the Yeah, Yeah. Yeahs without their parents being able to be there. How creepy is that? Shit? That is it just as bad, Optics. It looks like something that it's not a good look. So taking it step-by-step, right? For me. I can understand where I've had many conversations with people about why either. They don't want to take the vaccine. I took the vaccine. 00:16:29One of the biggest Daniel listen when you guys become bucket list or Lizards or whatever the fuck, you're going to come home and make sure to personally go to your house and put your fucking misery.

And you know that my dad is he had a stroke in like early 2013 and you know, there's plenty of things there. 00:17:26That had me very unsure and throughout 2020. I wasn't able to do much at all. Like I used to do music gigs. I used to go out with people. I used to do so many things and then I was practically just homebody and then go to work back home, work back home. And a lot of the trouble I was having was even if I do go out right because for us younger folk, it's like we can at least kind of fight it a bit. You know what I mean? Like, we're not going to be at a worse odds, right? But for my folks, I was really worried and they ended up agreeing to take the vaccine and then they asked me, what did you want to do? 00:18:08Me and my conscience in the way that I look at things. It's not a matter of religion. It's not a matter of like, what it, like, how do I say this? Like, it's it's just that, that bit of me where I was like, if something happens, right, you know, God forbid something happens and in like I get it and doesn't hit me that bad, but then one of them gets it, you know what I mean, like, and the worst comes to happen. That's where to me at that point. I don't know how I would come to feel about that. And I know, I'm just getting, like, real deep about it right now. But like, it's just, that's the part. That sucks. Right? Like if I was living on my own, if I was like, dude, I was very doubtful about it, especially the day that I want to get the first dose. Is it literally outline for you? Like in seven different pages that says this is not been approved by the FDA and that was my biggest problem with this from the beginning was already bad enough as is. 00:19:12I just like, you know, Derek their Mass producing it, putting it out there. And a lot of people, I feel like if this was something improved, right? And this was something that was going to come out anyway, then and just put the seal of approval on it. And a lot of people would have been like, you know what, it's an option, right? But we're not going to politicize it. We're not going to do this going to do that. But they end up weaponizing. We did, we did all that shit anymore. All that shit anymore. And then and I get you right. I got you because my dad had my dad had a heart attack seven months ago a month ago. So my dad has my dad's diabetic. Can I get you? But at the end of the day, I mean, I don't live with him and I, but I do go visit him. Yeah, he got the vaccine cuz his doctor said, if you get covid, again, it died. That's what do his doctor said. If you get covid, you're going to die. 00:20:12So guess what? He's supposed heart attack it right. Now. If you have some sort of cancer, May Nicolas Cage, you know, bro Pro prohibit that right? Cuz you're so fucking Nicolas Cage. So if you have some sort of cancer, right is right, and obviously we all know that even money can't buy you life because what was the dude name from Apple? Was it does Steve Jobs have Steve Jobs. One of the richest men in the world died of cancer. Even have money couldn't save him, right money. Couldn't save him now, so, 00:20:47Right. Now, if you have some sort of terminal illness and and there is nothing, absolutely nothing else you can do. 00:20:53I'mma tell you what I'm going to do. I'm going to be tell me how you have a 50% chance of when you take, when you eat cow shit. You're going to get, you might get ready or cancer. Guess what I'm going to do it, right? If I have no other choice. I'm just going to try. Yeah, I don't want to get into the whole metrics and all this shit, but it's got a very high survivability rates right for the help. People people who don't have underlying, underlying condition is got to hydrate. So, what I think is what I've talked about before, on my podcast, it's called in the medical tourism. And what they do is they use propaganda. They use propaganda to speak to people's soul in a deeper way because of you, notice how people are acting nowadays. It's almost like, as of lately, right? As in and I've noticed this and I didn't know it. What if it was me or if it was what it was, right? 00:21:48We all get depressed sometimes right now. Yeah. Yeah, I think we all get sad in the in the hustle and bustle outside. Fuck. What am I doing? Where am I going to go? What, you know, why do I keep you just you just get tired for the for a little while? I've been feeling a bit down, right? Like like the energies off and like, for me like time is slower. Right? It's like this weird vibe that's going on in the world right now. That's just throwing everything off because if you see how people act, bro, it's almost like this cult mentality. Like, it's almost literally, like, like hordes of zombies, quite, you know, figure it figuratively. And maybe perhaps, literally soon enough. We will see come here. Two years from now, whoever took the vaccine will see. What? What's the 00:22:44Later, but I got you, bro. I get why you did it. And I, and I, and I and I get what, you know, I get your reasoning. I'll be honest looking at it to like everybody's everybody's like, human body's different, right, you know. Depending on what exactly you depending on, what you eat, depending on how you are and like, what you have suffered from, or what the hereditary hereditary traits, right? That your family is and stuff of like, you know, health concerns, and whatever, all that stuff, kind of like factors into it as well. I just like seen recently, of course not saying names, not, you know, mentioning anything in particular but like seeing two different cases where somebody who had the vaccine, 00:23:34Go through your getting covid and just getting over it. Like, if it was just the flu compared to somebody else who didn't take it. And, you know, now they're in the hospital. It's like, right? Like it kind of It kind of adds. What does that mean? Exactly. And that's what I was getting too. It's like, then you look at it at the other way around, and you're like, so what's the whole point of this, this vaccine? Then we'll do what I think it is. 00:24:04And if the government wants to track you there, if they're already doing it. Okay, we got phones, actually, I mean, if you want to stop that gun, just answer your phone in your fucking ass, and you'll make that stop. But here to check the email, the whole what I think is happening. 00:24:23I don't know. I don't know what the fuck is happening. I will be honest, but check this out. What is, what if 00:24:33What if I don't want to say it, but what if it's part of like revealing the aliens or some shit, dude, I don't know. You know, I already passed that we knew and will try to get you. If I want the fuck. I want the fucking pictures of the Year. Dimensional Grays right away through a fucking poor. The one I want. I want a gray on. I want him talking telepathically to me to MTV. I want that. I don't want to watch, there are unidentified objects flying in our airspace. No shit. We know that the 7th grade. What are you talking about, man? I want an alien to just kind of like, or whatever being it is to know that. Like they've already seen enough of the internet or just enough of us in general to just like flip us off on screen just like a straight middle finger. Just like I were like that understands us. 00:25:33They know that we are in all seriousness,. It's like a, it's a social experiment, is what it is, I've ever seen. What's that? What's that movie? It's actually with the guy from what's his name? Adrian. Brody is based on a true story of the prison experiment on me. See what it is, where they give us Authority, and I think it was like, the guards and then they they it's like a social experiment to where they go. It's, it's not the movies that are they called the experiment in 2010 and the movie. I'm going to read the the experiment does. The name is a 2010. American drama Thriller film by Paul starring, Adrien Brody in a bunch of people and then it's an experiment, which resembles Philip zimbardo, Stanford Prison Experiment, and that was some social psychological experiment and flu. 00:26:33By the Milgram experiment to investigate the psychological effects of Percy, Faith, power, and it was focusing on the struggle between prisoners, and that's what I feel. And that's what a lot of different ancient scriptures, talk about, right. They talk about us pretty much being a fucking experiment in the Book of Enoch. When Enoch is, is among the angels and just chilling up in heaven with, with the one or God, whatever they're at the, you know, they're looking down on Earth and going well, like, look at this is a fucking who, who, what is it? I was just, you know, pretty much an experiment. Forgot to see. Hey. And then we fly our Angels down sometimes and we fought them. And then we come right back up. And then we make like demigod babies, right? That's what I feel. It is that it's, it's 00:27:20It's some sort of experiment and maybe it goes deeper than that. Right? Maybe it is a religious experience, especially in terms of experience in and just like a whole like shift, not just in culture, but in the way of just like, you know, your viewpoints and then your perspective on things, right? I think, especially looking at what we were talking about earlier, you know, was talking about Afghanistan or Columbia or just any of these countries that are going through some type of, like political shift or some type of cultural movement where people are just fed up, right? Like you look at here. And of course, our problems are completely different than what other countries are. But even in small doses, right? People want to get paid more people want, you know, to earn more but the situation in which there in doesn't allow them. 00:28:20Have that growth right unless you really go out there and you like you don't start your own business or you try to do something on your own. Like if you're trying to work commercially through something like it's probably not going to give you enough to to continue your growth unless you're working like two, three jobs, and driving yourself. Absolutely insane, which a lot of people do, right? And in other people that just want to make enough money now. So say, like I said, I want to make $15 an hour now, flipping burgers and then all the doctors and all the people, all the federal people that work, you know, these these more lucrative jobs, right. That they're like, I have to really put myself out there and put my mental stability. On check constantly. Now, I'm going to get paid, you know, even if I'm salary or whatever, it's like these people are going to be making just roughly about the same. Now. Like, where's my increase, right? Everybody's going to want that. It's so it's so to me. It's ridiculous. 00:29:20Do do you say it? Like everything that comes with economy especially towards like let's stay here cuz I'll just related to us right here in this state here in our area if people want to tell me while I can't you know for an apartment just flipping burgers and stuff don't like yeah, then why did you come to the tourist capital of the world? Where all you know is just going to be 50. But your retail flipping burgers and all that like you got to seek other opportunities. Got to get elsewhere, right? Unless you're working construction, some type of industrial job or something. Like you're not going to get what you're looking for. Working the basic stuff because the basic bare minimum is going to give you just that like something, so, 00:30:05I'm going to play devil's advocate here, because 00:30:09at the end of the day, everything and anything that we do for example, money currency is 00:30:19We give Valley to that, we give it, ya. Ya who tell who it in the nineteen-seventies. They pass the law where didn't need to be backed by gold but you know back then right after the after that, in the nineteen-seventies at 5 to print as much money as they wanted to. Yeah, to do. Anyway, I have to give value so much to these things, that we all again. It's a thought experiment. We all came together and said, hey what makes the president the president without a bunch of people collectively agreed on it, right at the other that you believe, what are the respectable? Because you were supposed to present under States. What what do you mean? Do you want to meet the president with a fox that like just the kind of like throwing a little comment with that too. It's like I've recently got into looking at a certain YouTube videos. I like to follow certain people that have like different, but you have a YouTube, the phone. 00:31:19Hey, hey, so what's this guy? And there's a guy who just kind of goes through about like the different videos, right? And it's different like, political YouTubers out there that they're like, all, why is this President good? Or why is this President bad excetera excetera? And the one thing that stood out to me about what that guy said, was look at the end of the day, whatever you try to say about a certain president. It's not just, it's not just about the one guy. You're talking about the administration you're talking about Congress, you talking about the, you know, the Senate, everything all together collectively together, the government working itself, out. Just so happen to do. Certain decisions, Pastor in-laws, and who just happened to be the person in power that so-and-so. So it's like it's not just a one-man show and a lot of people get that perspective skewed because of course, the media will just say whatever they're going to say, you know, 00:32:19The Hulk old mentality in in the whole like you're with me or against me type of thing that they dispute the unvaccinated. Yeah, right, so I don't know, dude, but you do know that that Hitler claimed the Jews had a certain disease in order to make them all going to the train, right? That's how they fucking thing. Like it's like, people will start getting into these extreme approaches when it comes to this. Because now they're going to say. And one of the things that I I kind of related to his just didn't even even not going to like the whole lake Hitler similarities or any of that. I'm just like, even like the bare-bones kids in school, right? If if, but you, and I both know, and I'm not sure how I feel like everybody else knows, you're not really required to say that you got vaccinated or not. 00:33:19No, not really is. I don't think it's really either. There's some type of legality towards it or ya Hippa Hippa. So there was someone that I know that told me that one of their teachers at their kids school had got covid. And now, they were pretty worried cuz they're like well, as everybody else vaccinated, like, how are they operating? This is Mike. Instant thought, as well. They're not going to tell you, like, why would they tell you their? Luckily for you? I identify as fully vaccinated, so, 00:33:54Where, where are you? Okay, because even so like if I had a kid, right? And this is just me talking. Like I don't have a kid. I don't know what that feels like, right? Like if if I'm they're going to tell me, you have to send your kids to school. I was going to say that I'll do homeschool virtual school. I don't care what it is and I'll be up if you have the option. Not only that it's like you think I'm going to trust some snot-nosed brat, who doesn't have you know doesn't know shit about like hygiene or anything. He's going to maintain a clean fucking Behavior about it, dude like that you and I we we grew up, you know, we knew each other since middle school. We like we were growing up and seeing that broke. Kids can be discussed in teenagers are fucking gross. People are gross. And you know, that's it's not going to be pristine like, all know that's not going to happen. So 00:34:54I don't blame people for getting angry at that. You know, I don't blame people for being like, Oh, well, why are they doing this then? It's like, well should just keep them home yet. Most like to see everybody's mad at DeSantis, right for not enforcing The Mask mandate York, your fucking kids, and you can wear a mask if you want. And don't, you know what I mean? Like, it's like this. Like, but what happens is the made it to where I'm at. It's like I'm better than you because I got my vaccine. I think all I'm asking everybody, but you know what? I mean? I can join the sheet that I read on the internet, especially it seems like everybody's like I was on red at the other night and I was like, some guy was like, I fucking hate unvaccinated people. I hate them with all my heart, like, like people are legitimately hating. And having this, this, this feeling and these feelings towards Pitbull. 00:35:54It's that whole like you're with me or against me mentality to. I think with the problem was when they started opening things back up and letting people back into certain public events, next week. Hey, yeah, so so that's where my problem. But doesn't that show you right there, bro? That the government doesn't know what the fuck's happening. Anyways, distrusted the signs, but what's even with the Santas, whether you're with him or not, Riley or whoever's listening, whether you're with him or not. It's like he falls into that same category 2, because nobody knows what the fuck is happening, right? This is, he doesn't really have like, capacity towards their parts or anything like that. Where is before, when she, it was like serious and nobody knows. Nobody. Truly knew what the fuk was going. There was like half capacity. Barely any capacity. Fuck everybody. We're not doing shit. Like that's how that's how quick it was. That's how quick it was. We're not letting anybody in and that's Disney. Frozen is Disney locks up there. 00:36:54Doors. That's when people go. Oh, shit, like cuz there's a more money hungry people than they were sold out for a while to see parks in the last stuff. Like this is the way it starts to see it. Right? Cuz, you know me, I like looking into shit and taking weight was putting myself in in other people's shoes and and how to see it if I'm a company. Right now. I have my employees and they just so happened then like take away the political aspect of it. Take away the, you know, religious beliefs, whatever what have you right? Right. Never buy. But then some of them start getting covid and then they end up becoming some type of liability. Now, you as a company, as head of your company has to answer for that because now it's all you got covid-19 app, hurt. My husband got covid in your facility, right? And your property under your watch, now you have to pay for that is like, companies are going to start going like, well, 00:37:54We're going to have to cut down on a bunch of shit. Right industry-wide. There's been a shortage of so much supplies. So much material, bro. I'll tell you firsthand based off what I work, right? We've had so much shortages and so many things that have not been produced and Disney is trying to just work overhaul on so many things. They were doing this again. We're touching up on paint here. We're doing this for doing that and it's like, they're trying to set all these projects and trying to remodel and do all these things, but the materials not there for it, but Disney doesn't care because they'll just throw money around. Like it's nothing cuz they have so much money to spend. But 00:38:35Lake even like for what I got recently. Like I mentioned to you like earlier before the episode. I got another guitar. There was a certain things that wasn't able to get for a while and guitar that I wanted for a while. I was one of them like they weren't being produced. Things were just on short supply. There's a perfect video that showcases why that's been happening cuz I saw it on forgot the name of the page, but basically what they were saying is because of the shortages and what companies have been doing on the west side of the country, unlike California, there's like two entry points like to Doc's, like main docks. Were they get a bunch of like Imports and, you know, stuff like that and didn't see the import-export and all the trading and all the shit that happens through it. They're operating on like half of their staff and we're talkin about it while dude. Still love you, bro. And here is they're not going through quickly. You know, it it's it's what I tell people plywood has gone up in in in a crazy on like 280% or 300%. 00:39:35Yep, trees are growing any slower. You can still get what you can still get the chemicals to make paint, right? You can see all these things. It's just how you said the Labour. Sure. There's not enough people to make the word fast enough. Yeah. For supplying them and it goes up but it's like an artificial demand. It's an artificial, the man like Supply crunch cuz it did not but there's no trees to cut to make the fire with it's not enough for getting around. Yeah, and so people know what's inflation is transitory like know, it's here. It's here to stay because they're fine. Yeah, what was it yesterday? Or this morning? I think five million jobless claims against, you know, what is 5? Million people aren't working fine. They're getting paid $16 an hour to stay there. Ass at home. While you're waking up every morning and going into work and working your ass off and exposing yourself, right? Potentially. 00:40:34While they sit at home and, you know, it's okay to milk the system, but at the end of the day, you know, we were in Afghanistan for 20 years, for 20 years. Our taxpayer money was funding this for, what? Yesterday was it was, it was is done all that money for what? Cuz again, it's a conspiracy. It's the fucking Elites whether they're reptiles or not. They're the ones playing this game and they're all launder money with each other. And how you going to tell me a public servant that makes $200,000 a year $240,000 a year, how the fuck they have a net worth of 50 million and have X amount of properties in x amount of money, from a, from a public servant job. Ridiculous. How do you go from being president, making $400,000 a year to an boom, over $100 a week cuz of all their connections and all the other lobbying that they do for all the other? It's all corrupt. 00:41:34All a game. It's a program. And I don't know if you've been seeing like it's I've seen a few but he's already of it of like glitches in The Matrix and it's like people who aren't acting the way they should. Cuz they say, there's a conspiracy theory that says that some people are NPCs and some others are like players and we're just add that the main characters and others are NPCs and stuff. You're not. And I saw one this morning is like a cop, like just like 00:42:05It was in the guys. Like I might to hit he's like if I do anything wrong officer, the guys just like looking at them. So you was rebooting in the cloud or some shit. I don't fucking the Lord was Afghanistan. Also just like you said for 20 years, right? All the year that I'm going to say it. It wasn't Trump's fault or Biden's fall. 00:42:31You know, the fuk got us into Afghanistan was Bush. You fucking idiot. And here, you are trying to blame Trump or Biden. I did. I saw some people already throw into the Trump thing there and it's like to me. It's what people fail to realize is that they keep connecting shit to recent because it's like that's all they know is the recent and they don't know the history. They don't know the things that have happened before, right? Why do we go to Afghanistan? Right? And in, like 2001, was like the big, like, an uproar about it was 9/11 and everyone at that time, whatever, you know, whatever of what we know now, it's like back then, it's like, the way that your sites were were, just boom. We need Revenge. We got to kick some ass. They're not getting away with this. And the way that the narrative was spun was. Hey, it's over here. It's over here Afghanistan. Yeah, we're going there. Hey, how about Iraq is pretty fucked up. 00:43:31They're doing over there. Right? And it's like way white. What if it is like slowly, but surely everything kept happening and then people like as time went on right over the last 10-15 years. It's like okay, something's not right here. Something's not right. And with the flow of information and everything that has come up sprayer, every as it feels like. Now everyday something happens immediately, you just, you know about it, you know what I mean? Like, that's just how crazy things have gotten now. It's, it's one of the things I wanted to add with like it, especially with like medicine as well. Right? I was listening to a podcast, I listened to their not political or not, and they were just talking and they just so happen to start talking about the vaccines and everything. And one of the guys said, you know, it's really odd. How, you know, I got a surgery, let's say, like seven eight years ago for his leg, right? Left them a pretty gnarly scar after he got it, you know, everything came out fine. You got operated on the leg, come to find out. 00:44:31A co-worker somebody he knew like ended up getting some type of like surgery done as well. And you don't even see anything like just a little wine. That's like what the surgery was now it's like pretty much. 00:44:44How things keep innovating and how it keeps upgrading is such a rapid rate, which is why I feel like some people just aren't completely unsure or have that that negative feeling towards or that attitude towards the vaccines and Sports Medicine in general. Cuz it's like to technology keeps evolving. Fucking medicine keeps going all over the place. We still don't know what the fuck is going on around the world, cuz just everything is that an uproar? Everything that happened ever since 2020 has just halted the world, right? Everything has stopped. And in most ways, the thing that I see is just like you said, you think it's like, you see this as like, an experience is like some type of experiment, write something going on, and I feel a lot of people, I know, you might feel a different way about it, but I feel like a lot of people are not only just waking up to just certain things happening here, cuz I've seen so many interesting discussions. 00:45:44So many cool like things out there were people are just like, hey, this is not a way to live a life. You know what I mean? This is not a way that we should be. You know what I'm saying? Like this. This shouldn't be, what what we should be doing all the time. Here's the thing, bro, you're talkin about trusting the signs and trusting the powers-that-be, not always Novation happen, but at the same time, how does that get weaponized? Right? How does that get better than this because 00:46:19The government has fucked people before in the past. It doesn't repeat but it often Rhymes. Right? And that's what people are scared of that. Maybe perhaps they're using this to weaponizer or whatever because the powers that be, that's just the way it is. I mean, if it's in a cultic practice or whatever it is, that's just the way it's been. And unfortunately, the the poor in the lower class always get the short end of the stick. And I firmly do believe that there is this this this 00:46:57This cabal of elite that run everything in the fun day and they cause it's got, its got a name something dialectic. I forgot. It's like a problem solution and then start, you know, you like that. Cycle, you know, I'm talking about so I can present in a solution to be solving that it just it just isn't always like, it's something right. If it's not one thing. It's the other. If it's not who's going to be president, is what the fuck the president was tweeting. It's like right now, it's all about what has it been lately, obviously, covid, and that the elections were stolen right. That's all, it's been going back and forth, like play K. Let's find some dirt on somebody for some shit. They did that. Again. It's all like this game, like this TV show its like The Truman Show bra. Honestly. I love The Truman Show and it's scary how like, accurate that shit is cuz it's like I have a few men who trippie that would be like. 00:47:58if it's not really like that one who's to know if, 00:48:02If you're going to fucking wake up, and what's that? What's the, the Morpheus actor? Laurence Fishburne. Just like, he's like, they're waiting you up and come with me. And how crazy that would mean. You just like, welcome to the part with the Whitworth is martial arts training is like it'd be as hard as you can, and again, it's 00:48:38I honestly think it's some sort of experiment. Where were just I find it. So interesting to like it's such a I think maybe because with us we've been we were part of a different generation. I leased born in the into a decade where, you know, I will I was born in 93, were what 94 like our generation at least in the sense of like, the group that that we were born with. Right. We experience like the tail end of what it meant to be, like having the technology and its Bare Bones material, right? Until I cut the beginning stages of like cell, phones and smartphones and everything, and having it evolve to where it is. Now. The phone type keyboards. Yes. Exactly. Right. Or like different things, where you just don't you just kind of take that shift for granted because you just look at it now. And you just go damn. 00:49:38Had a lot of different things in what kids are born with now, right, and it's crazy because, like, I could just imagine what a kids like, definition of fun, would probably be, right? Like with us. It's like fighting dudes. Like you, you were there, while we did was ride bikes. Stand in front in front of electrical box and just talk about crap all day. You know. Maybe that's the cure to covid, are the people that got the radiation from those boxes paying off my butt. But like my point is it's like there's such as to what I was saying earlier. It's like that whole cultural thing where it's like, at each generation goes through it, right? But 1960s, right was like the summer of love and light, does a peace out talking about hating black people and races Civil Rights Movement. We're going to Vietnam and all this cultural shift. That was like no fuck that raelettes in the seventies. 00:50:38In the 70s, there's like more of a change in media with the movies and everything was more like grimy and just fucking out there and then he has moves like taxi driver yet movies that it just they were Relentless right with what they put out there in the 80s. Everybody just went fucking ham and just fuck it as a line of coke. I'm going to do five. Fuck it, you know, everybody just went crazy with it and it didn't music as well bro, like the spearmint Tatian going on the 80s in like all these people that came before us to do what they did write that they just had that third eye opener of any kind Ray like they just had that moment of just realizing fuck. This is what we're going to do and we can enjoy doing that. It's like, how do you define the last ten or Twenty Years of that? Right? What defines, what the fines that that generation? What defines Our Generation where it's like, for me? Obviously, for us like we, we weren't around to experience, like, throughout the 90s fucking Kurt. Cobain. 00:51:38Nirvana that the whole age of rebellion that led to like movies, like The Matrix and stuff like that fight club and the anti Authority because everybody got tired of that shit. Everybody hated that already. They're like no fuck that. I won't do what you tell me, write that type of attitude going to fight that broke is a mind. Fuck. Do you like even watching even re-watching and knowing how it is? How I can't believe that. That's like what happened, you know, but even in that movie, you see the messages that is putting out. Everybody's working on a fucking 925 Jagger. And all I think about is, what am I buying? Am I buying Starbucks in my buying the living room couch, and my living does Sam. I am I living my life by a fucking Jeff bezos's email after he does. Lex Luthor know. It's crazy because as much as like, as much as like you say, right, like things are like a simulator. 00:52:38Things like that, but there's always been those bread crumbs of things out there. Even in media, even in things that we don't trust now, regularly or the language to the. So I've always end up, there's a reason why they put all this shit into movies. How you're saying. You're you're you're, you're hitting it right on the head. But again, it's this, this occult practice of a video, you know, that Play-Doh Play-Doh and play Tool's the Republic. And again, a lot of things that were inspired by put even the Matrix got to do is put those do the the allegory of the cave. So Play-Doh and the play OneRepublic, he talked about banning certain arts and Musical musical notes and yet wanted to limit music because he kneeled the effect that the Arts had on people. He knew the effect music speaks of frequency, speak, to people on a different levels. He said that buy people seeing plays and whatnot that they were to get inspired. 00:53:38And it's almost like, you know, inspired to revolt against the government or, or do whatever. And again, that this is crazy at the guy in the year 300, something was talking about the sort of stuff in the same shit that everybody else is playing with sticks, staring at a wall. This guy is like, what the hell is our purpose, right here? Not do is write like what it, what are we doing? Right? Let's see, Jeff, Jeff, Bezos. Laugh here, all guy. 00:54:07What the fuck? People laugh, but nobody believes me when I say I'm like bro, rich people just have this distorted way in their behavior. And the way that they laugh, the way that they talked all that shit ain't got to be a fucking weirdo when you're the life out of me. Because like look at those people. Look at you and they just feel like you're you're beneath me, right? It's like I'm not. I'm a royalty on this. I'm not asleep. 00:54:40You're made of meat and Bone, just like I am but that's what I was saying earlier about what gives those people value? All because they have they have more pieces of paper than you do. Yeah, they made more money than you did. I thought you meant to put it out there. You know what I mean? Like, what that message. They accept that that, that rule, right? That's like all that stuff. Is the richest man in the world. OK, Google doll. That is like, all right, is fucking narrative that I got. I made it. I didn't happen. So my buddy. Yeah. Tony from the third dimension and I named it, the American illusion and then the on the, on the cover. I put, you know, homeless person with the arrow. Horse has white house over here because at the end of the day, bro, I was just like it, it's fucked up. But what do they say, one man's treasure in is another man's is another man's trash is another man's treasure. Another, there's another saying would like misery. 00:55:40Whatever, like one man's daughter die, is there? Okay. I know what you're talkin about. What I mean? Like, one person's Good. Fortune is another's Misfortune. And if nobody's made that cord, then there is a comes down. I always believed to people that make it to that Elite status and whatever is just such dumb luck. Bro, is so dumb luck, too. Because it's like, you got no, I think it's what I think. I think it's I I firmly believe that. I think it's something that you can control as long as you know, the law of attraction. I'm that's why I talked about that. We live in a simulation because it's been proven that the mind you buy. You looking at things. It has a different reaction. But by when you don't look at it, look up the double slit experiment, Adams act differently when they're being observed, almost as if they know, if they're being observed and they change in the in the way that they behave by you just, it's the observer effect. So right now, 00:56:39Who's to know if when you're not? 00:56:43Looking what they're actually really going on. You know what, I'm going to have to seem to be some metaphysical aspect or not. And that's why I feel like a lot of the things of back then, the reason that they were so exaggerated an end and, you know, just different and I'm talking about like, ancient scriptures and and the art and whatever it is, is because it was a different time because I feel people were that much more in tune, with their, their Oneness, right there, their self. They may be a point. Like, what was difficult about believing things so far in the past is that, you know, the victors are the ones who write the history of his story, but his story. Yeah, so it's like, it's, it's so, it's, so it's interesting, right? Because it's like you said, it's one of those things that you could believe that, but it's, it's also one of those things that you look at you go. Well, how much of it is true? How much is not right? Because that's the that's the beauty of it, right? People. Talk about all what happened World War. 00:57:43My World War 2 is like not everything is going to get spelled out for you because it's going to follow a narrative and it's going to be whatever the Victor say. It was right on the same as with, you know, ancient Societies in like the Mayans or are even like ass sex or anything else, whatever we found and whatever these people thought would happen. That's it. Right. We don't know what exactly happened down to the nitty-gritty diesel, but it's funny. You're saying because back then and unless the thing right? Maybe it wasn't his history, his story back, then when they fucking wrote on rocks and here they they didn't just put any random ship on rocks, know it had to be important and had to be straight to the point. Good back then writing on Rock so hard and it was expensive, right? So maybe perhaps they did do some things out of story. Imagine like it's like, I'm pretty sure I've seen this in a movie. So there's like, okay. So how does this story start? Why I bursted 00:58:43I want it more epic. I ran through the door and I made a grand entrance. No, no. No, I want it. A little bit. Yeah, his mighty wrath, came all the while. The guys is going to rain in Boulder, right? There's nipples are really hard. So who knows if it's the fallacy worried people needed to embellish things, but 00:59:11I just know, it's a fucked-up system in a fucked-up word that with him because of how what pisses me off about people is for the longest time. And this is all over the world. They call the US, the police de do, do the world, right? Like all they need to get, they get involved, where they're not supposed to be. It has some shit like, how is happening in Afghanistan, as I want the Americans helping cuz I could use one of them out of their, you complaining, you fucking complain about us being there and then you don't know, we're not there, some ship popped off then your complaint that we're not. It's a damned. Why we always talk about? Dan W, Dan W fucking. You got to think about the children in this and that's like you realize, what they're doing to women and little girls over there, bro. Because his videos all the videos that came out of that right with the plan. And also do you realize that I like, there's not many women, there are many girls there.

Today, I want to talk about the first book of the The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Fellowship of the Ring. I think we're in a place where each of us has had something similar to Frodo thrust upon us. In the book, Gandalf basically says that we don't ask for these hard times, but when they come, we have to deal with it. This comes up as Frodo is lamenting about how he has to bear this burden and fight to save the world. Even though he did nothing to deserve his fate, he has to take responsibility and go on this journey. Grab your copy of The Lord of the Rings trilogy>> We need people to bear their burdens And I think that as a culture, as a society, we have a lot of burdens that we have to face. This book offers a valuable lesson in what it takes to push back against evil. We're at a time where there is a similar feeling as what you have in the beginning of the Lord of the Rings. There is something hanging over our heads, looming, and I think there is an eerie feeling about where we're heading. What's sad about this is it isn't "our fault." Rather, it's something that's been thrust upon us and we have to respond. So how do we do that? Like Dr. Jordan Peterson talks about, we have to take responsibility - even if we aren't the cause of the suffering. Enter your email here for updates on the Conversation of Our Generation! Take Responsibility So, Frodo decides to go on the adventure and to take responsibility for something that was thrust upon him. And, I think that's what we need today. We need men ready to take up responsibility, even if it is for something we didn't mess up. Instead of the childish, "He started it," argument, we should be a society of doers. And I really like this book because it just is relatable to a child can who is coming of age, but I think a young man can as well. It is a call to take on what is thrust upon you and bear that burden. If you want to be inspired to do that, check out this book if you haven't already. Below is a transcript for you to check out and see how Frodo takes responsibility.

I had the pleasure of sitting down with Stephen and Brian from The Vital Masculinty Podcast to discuss how we can build a more virtuous society. On their podcast, they focus on helping men become more virtuous, and I think that our society would benefit from more virtuous men. If we want to change the culture, I think we each have to play our part and grow in virtue. A society is simply the people in it. In order to change a society, we must each choose to choose virtue. What Does a Virtuous Society Look Like? You can't build something if you don't know what you want to build, but sometimes things are fuzzy. The picture may not be clear, but we have to take action anyways. With that said, I think we can agree that a society filled with Justice, Prudence, Courage, and Temperance is good. These cardinal virtues are the center of a virtuous life, and therefore, a virtuous society. A virtuous society will have strong families, tight-knit communities, respect for differences, and healthy politics. So, how do we go about creating that? The Building Blocks of A Virtuous Society A society is just a human beings in relationship with one another. The family is the building block of society because its the first relationship one has to other people. But, we can only control our own actions - so if we want to change the society we live in, we have to change our behaviors first. That's why I like the Vital Masculinity Podcast's emphasis on each man attaining virtue. So, if you want to see how you can do that, listen to this episode and check out their work as well. Enter your email here for updates on the Conversation of Our Generation! Finding Community as A Man One thing I struggle with is finding like-minded men to fight alongside me. We want a band of brothers, but often don't know how to find that. Plus, it doesn't help that men aren't the best at building bonds and putting themselves out there. If both parties aren't reaching out, then no new bonds will form. So, the guys and I discussed this issue in light of their recent series on friendship and my observation of the breakdown of communities. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/conofourgen/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/conofourgen/support

Today we will be talking about what government has done with our money. Or better yet, the book: What Has Government Done To Our Money by Murray Rothbard. And, the reason I want to talk about this today is because I think it gives us a good basis and a good understanding of how to understand money at the basic level and how that interact our government. We have a lot of problems with money, and I think this book can help us fix them. I'm reading another book right now on Abraham Lincoln and why he may not have been such a great president, actually. The author brings up some good points about problems with nationalized banking and some of the other policies that the Whig Party, and then the Republican Party, took on that were very problematic and terrible ideas. We have this sense of money that is wildly incorrect, and that's what I want to talk about today. You should read this book to straighten out your understanding of the concept of money. Plus, it'll help elucidate the problems with money we face as a country. Quote of the Week "Few economic subjects are more tangled, more confused than money." -Murray Rothbard I think that's really what the crux of this whole issue is - that it's so confusing, so tangled. We don't know how to classify this asset, and yet we use it daily. We understand how to interact with it in so many ways at a personal level. But we don't necessarily, when it gets into the macro monetary policy, understand things like what the Federal Reserve doing. How does that all work? That's where it gets very confusing, very muddled, and it becomes very easy for people who are in power to utilize that confusion in their favor. And, I think they do that a lot. Grab your copy here to learn about what the government did to our money>> Problems With Money I've talked about this problem in the past in another episode that through inflation and other monetary policies that we have, an oligarchy or an elite group of people get first access to the money, and therefore, have the most power in our economy. And so, that's why I think it's such an important read: money is a huge means of control. If there are people who are able to get first access and priority access to the money supply, they can influence economies. Especially because we see a democratization happening right now with the GameStonk thing and everything going on in politics. They're pushing back against this institutional money that has the advantage in the market because they're close to power. And they are the ones who are nestled up and get the first, access to loans and cash flow.

Not sure if you've ever read Russian literature (I know I avoided it in high school). But, if you haven't it is something unique. In Notes From Underground, Fyodor Dostoevsky shows how someone paves the road to hell for himself by how they think and act. So, in today's episode, we'll take a look into the psyche of a man on that path to learn from his mistakes. Buy your Copy of Notes from Underground here. Where's the Road to Hell? Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn says "The battleline between good and evil runs through the heart of every man," however, he doesn't mention where Heaven and Hell are found. By following the character in Notes From Underground, you will see how one takes the road to Hell. The battle between good and evil may run through every heart, but the battle between Heaven and Hell happens in every action we take. In this book, you'll follow the thoughts and actions of a man on the road to hell. If you'd like to read it, you can grab your copy here.

In our society, politics has jumped to the front of most everyone's mind. Despite its prominence in our lives, it seems that many people don't know how to talk about it. But, that doesn't have to be the case. A while ago, I sat down to talk with the guys from the Vital Masculinity Podcast about virtues, and how to discuss politics. Since I've been revisiting some of the great conversations I've had, I thought I'd revisit this conversation about justice, reading, and talking politics. That way, I can pull out some new insights and elaborate on an amazing conversation. So, after you listen to this, it would be good to check out the original interview. Enter your email here for updates on the Conversation of Our Generation! "Virtue is harmony." -PYTHAGORAS You Can't Fix Injustice with Injustice While it may seem like revenge can right wrongs, it really can't. In fact, injustice cannot be dealt with by committing further injustices. Instead, justice has to be done to rectify the damage, and while some may not feel as though they've been made whole, they may need to accept that. As politicians today call for things like reparations and "equitable treatment," we ought to be wary of their solutions. Revolution Rarely Works out Well Although the American Revolution worked out well, it is an outlier, not the rule. More often than not, revolution leads to chaos and a worse state of things. Tyranny of a dictator is, at the very least, predictable. However, mob rule and the chaos of revolutions like the Communist Revolution or French Revolution leaves a society in desperate need of order. And, this often comes from a strong-willed leader who generally leads back to the tyranny the revolt reacted to in the first place. Talking Politics Virtuously Man, is it hard to have a good political discussion. It seems like anytime we talk about politics either we talk past each other or it turns to shouting and name-calling. But, that doesn't have to be the case. There are ways of talking politics that can be productive. Doing this requires virtues of patience, prudence, and courage - as well as some tact and knowledge. So, if it's possible, how can it be done? Listen to find out. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/conofourgen/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/conofourgen/support

I recently sat down with Brendan Heard of the Aureus Press to talk about traditionalism and power of ancient and esoteric wisdom. After his book about the decline of Western Art, Brendan continued to writing. This led him to start the Aureus Press website where he publishes articles. This conversation will teach you a lot about a range of problems facing us today. For more of this discussion, listen to the interview. Or, if you're a subscriber you can watch below. Importance of Beauty As you know, I've talked with several accounts about art, architecture, and beauty. And, I've talked a lot about restoring the arts, despite being in an ugly culture. Furthermore, I think there is a connection between truth and beauty - that they're both objective. Brendan and I discuss that quite a bit as well. That said, I think much of what we tried to get at is perfectly summed up below by Francis Bacon. "Beauty itself is but the sensible image of the Infinite." Francis Bacon What Is Esoteric Wisdom? Basically, esoteric wisdom is knowledge meant to be somewhat hidden - or at least not widespread. According to the dictionary, esoteric means: "intended for or likely to be understood by only a small number of people with a specialized knowledge or interest." This is, in other words, a type of knowledge that requires a lot of studying and work to acquire. However, that doesn't mean it's out of reach. It is something that each of us can attain, in fact. The quote below explains why that's the case: "Esoteric or inner knowledge is no different from other kinds of human knowledge and ability. It is a mystery for the average person only to the extent that writing is a mystery for those who have not yet learned to write."

Recently, I sat down with the Stained Glass Zealot to talk about the beauty of stained glass, and how it draws you in. Check out his Twitter account here or his Substack to see what he's doing to show how beautiful this art is. Mostly, we discussed the beauty of churches. But, we dove into several other topics like the Lindy Effect, Divine Light by Abbot Suger, fashion vs. eternal beauty, and much more. Listen here or subscribe below to watch the interview: One theme that came up again and again in this interview was that beauty draws us in. We know this from our own experience, if we stop to reflect. Generally, when we fall in love, it starts with some attraction to beauty. In a grocery isle, our eye jumps to bright, beautiful packaging. Beauty captures our attention. It captivates us, pulling us in. "My interest in art must have started with my Catholic upbringing. Art was everywhere: churches with its paintings, sculptures, stained glass, textiles, and fine metalwork." -Cheech Marin Stained Glass and the Lindy Effect According to Wikepedia, the Lindy Effect, "is a theory that the future life expectancy of some non-perishable things like a technology or an idea is proportional to their current age, so that every additional period of survival implies a longer remaining life expectancy." Basically, the longer something has been around, the longer it will last into the future. Therefore, much of the beauty we find in stained glass windows, some hundreds or a thousand years old, will remain beautiful for. along time. Obviously, they have to be maintained for that. to be the case. But, the principles of beauty they follow will last. The Origin of Stained Glass This art was largely inspired by Abbot Suger of St. Denis. His work of Divine Light was meant to encourage the use of beauty to inspire people to pursue Christ. In essence, he believed that beauty could be used to bring people into the Church. In fact, people took this idea even further and used the art itself to teach the faith. Today, many churches have stained glass windows that teach the gospel and of the saints.
