This chapter explores the profound impact of disconnecting from modern distractions and immersing oneself in the wilderness to truly connect with nature. Through personal experiences and observations, the speaker highlights the power of nature to foster self-reflection and realization. Themes of interconnectedness in nature and the importance of listening to the environment are intricately woven throughout the discussion.
In this episode, Mike Gathers chats with Joseph Matheny, multidisciplinary artist and explorer of both the wilderness and the esoteric. Joe was an old friend of Robert Anton Wilson (Joe was also Bob's chauffeur for a while), and he was talking to Bob a lot when the book Reality Is What You Can Get Away With was published, and part of the efforts in trying to get the screenplay produced.
