Premium 10 - Novels as Spycraft pt. 2, Paedophisles Carroll, Barrie, and HG Wells' NWO

[originally published on Patreon Oct 26, 2021] Today I return to looking at novels as spycraft, particularly Lewis Carroll, JM Barrie, and HG Wells. I go through Carroll's connections to Oxford, his hobbies and predilections, his relationship with the Liddell family, and the enduring fixation Carroll's work has for pedophiles to this day. Then, I look at JM Barrie, his ties to the literary scene and the throne, his relationship with the Llewelyn Davies family, and the fate of those children.  To wrap it up, I discuss several of HG Wells more interesting works, including the World Set Free, the Open Conspiracy, and the New World Order.  You might have known some of what I talk about today, but I'm certain there are some salient details that biographers seem to like to leave out.  songs: Wonderland by T*ylor Sw*ft Enter Sandman by Met*llica New World Order by Meg*deth the Eve of the War from Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds

Premium 09 - Simon Radowitzky, the Avenger of the Honor of the Humble Classes

[originally published on Patreon Oct 20, 2021] Today's about Argentina and it's radical history. We're talking about immigrants from Europe bringing their politics, the economic base of Argentina, and a May Day massacre that triggered a wild chain of events. We trace the life of Simon Radowitzky from the Ukraine to Argentina, to Ushuaia prison, to an escape, then back to prison, then to Uruguay, then Spain during their civil war, then finally Mexico City. It's a wild story. songs: Noy Soy de Aqui ni Soy de Alla by Jorge Cafrune Maldita Burguesia from the album 'Marchas y Canciónes de Lucha de los Obreros Anarquistas Argentinos' Fusiles Contra el Patrón from the album 'Canciónes de la Resistencia Española' Simón Radowitzky Anarquista Ucraniano y Héroe en Argentina, and excerpt from film, not sure who performed the song

[originally published on Patreon Oct 12, 2021] Today's all about novels as spycraft. I introduce the premise, the different classifications, and then briefly discuss Ian Fleming, George Viereck, Robert Ludlum, John le Carré, George Orwell, Anthony Burgess, and then Aldous Huxley. First I talk about Thomas Henry Huxley, Aldous's grandfather, the X Club, the rise of Darwinism and Social Darwinism, its connections to Rhodes, Milner, and the Fabians, and HG Wells. Then, I go through Aldous Huxley's life, his time in Hollywood, his friends and circle, and how he set up networks in the US to promote drug culture.  songs: snippets of Musica Ricercata by György Ligeti (Eyes Wide Shut) Henry the Eighth by Herman’s Hermits Brave New World by Motorhead

Premium 05 - Q&A 3, or, Bolaño’s Crime Novels, a Yen for Magic, and Magic Weaponized

[originally published on Patreon Sep 15, 2021] Today I answer a question about Roberto Bolaño and his work, read and discuss some of By Night in Chile, and discuss the role crime novels have in society. Then, I'm outed as a believer of magick in another Q&A question asking my opinion on the material basis of magick and whether the ruling class practices magick. I discuss Mormonism in several ways, white and black magick, stage magic, Giordano Bruno and Professor Ioan Culianu, John Dee, the CIA's stage magician John Mulholland, Haitian voudon, a research office tied to the Human Ecology Fund researching witchcraft for psychological warfare, the FBI memo about using magickal harassment (Beware the Siberian Beetle!), and other hints. songs:  Cualquier Noche Puede Salir el Sol by Los Muertos de Cristo Do You Believe in Magic? by the Lovin’ Spoonfuls

Premium 04 - Q&A 2, or, JFK vs. US Steel, and the WTC [Break Stuff]

[originally published on Patreon Sep 8, 2021] Today's answering two questions - first a deep dive into JFK vs US Steel, wherein we discuss US Steel picking a fight with JFK, how his administration fought back, who was actually on the board of US Steel, a curious op-ed called “Steel: the Ides of April” that appeared in Fortune magazine afterwards in 1962, and then I link the board to WCC/Permindex.  Then I discuss the WTC's potential hidden meanings/symbolism, psychogeography, sensory overload and overstimulation by design, UFOs, then a look at who built the new WTC, who owns the building, and how the whole thing functioned as a massive handout to private real estate developers. songs: источник – ничего не будет Break Stuff by Limp Bizkit

[originally published on Patreon Aug 24, 2021] I said I wasn't gonna do an episode this week, but I can't help myself. and out of 8 Q&A questions, I made it through precisely one, lol. looks like Q&A will definitely be on a rolling basis. today we talk about the coin shortage and the elimination of cash. right off the bat, we talk about the World Economic Forum and the Great Reset, then the function cash plays in the underground economy. from there, we go into the Free Silver movement and its war against the nefarious gold standard, including William Jennings Bryan. From the Free Silver movement, we go into L. Frank Baum and his Wizard of Oz as metaphor for the Silver vs. Gold debates of the time, and then we explore the theosophical underpinnings of Oz. from there, things really come off the rails, and we discuss some of the more esoteric Oz movies, including the demented Return to Oz, and then wrap it up with a discussion of Dr. William Joseph Bryan, the hypnotist. songs:  - outtakes from Jimmy Page’s Lucifer Rising soundtrack looped - the King of the Surf Guitar by Dick Dale
