Guest for the full hour:
Returning guest Jonathan Gonzales was born in Tuxtepec, Oaxaca, Mexico and grew up in southern California. He has spent the last 12 years learning earth living skills and ancestral ceremonial ways with many teachers and elders, combined with participating in Indigenous, earth-based ceremonies along with a quest to connect more deeply with his ancestral lineage, which is Indigenous Taino from Puerto Rico, Chinanteco from Mexico, and African. "Among other related topics, we discuss cults, culture and civilization and the differences and how different cultures are treated by cults and civilization," Tiokasin says.
