The Nick Margerrison podcast.
Former Kerrang! Radio & LBC presenter Nick Margerrison's fortnightly podcast is a continuation of his often eclectic radio career.
Building on the legacy of the critically acclaimed first series "The Cult Of Nick" this podcast looks at how topics which were explored back then are now considered to be the bare bones of what is frequently termed 'the intellectual dark web'.
A proud Discordian Nick's take is always sincere but never too serious.

127 - Vegans, Aliens met the President, face analysis, reincarnation, and kick ass moves!
Rob Jackson the vegan, his web presence is here. He tolerated a lot of nonsense to get his message over back then. Interesting how some of my viewpoints have shifted and some stayed the same here. Good piece. This looks like him: http://fuckyeahveganlife.tumblr.com/post/37293420117 Manuel Kirklin, a witness to the President's incredible meeting with aliens. At this point I was in my full on true believer mode from the sounds of things. It was an interesting belief system at the time. Curiously close to outright Christianity. Kristina Powell dives in for a bit of facial analysis. Quite an interesting piece.

124 - Bit of brain food for you

123 - The Aetherius Society and Britain's vilest troll OldHolbornlolz
The Aetherius Society is one of my favourite small scale religions. Mark Bennet is their representative. They are often described as one of the world's first UFO religions. Their website is here: http://www.aetherius.org The YouTube video I refer to in the interview, and borrow a few clips from, is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GS4UEpzlAyM Also worth a look is this excellent Jon Ronson piece from his old and incredibly underrated TV show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWjl5CDk2vs As a side note I was delighted to discover the entire series has been posted up there, apparently by World Of Wonder, the production company that made it. In the unlikely event they read this, do another series! I'll present it if Mr Ronson's too expensive these days. Probably my favourite TV show ever. We cover the sad death of a...

122 - Climate crisis and UFO truth
We feature two great guests this week. Piers Corbyn's website is here: http://www.weatheraction.com/ Richard Dolan features on the podcast, his website is here: http://www.richarddolanpress.com/ I continue my pagan mumblings, as this was recorded during my pagan week. That's over now. For those not following this thread I'm currently trying out new beliefs and this week I've realised the truth is in The Lord Jesus Christ, in a Gnostic context. It's much trickier to pull off monotheism. It's so antithetical to me. Or it was. Managed to say my prayers a bit last night. Do Gnostic Christians do that? My only real guide to their beliefs is a book by Philip K Dick. Here's the famous Independent story about how there's going to be no more snow thanks to 'global warming'.

121 - The McClue Interview
Scottie McClue, the man, the myth, the legend. Scottie's work was early inspiration for me. He seems explicitly Discordian, although this thought only occured as I began to write this little piece for the podcast. Scottie's world record breaking tip top website is here I wonder how his particular brand of broadcasting will be recieved by The CON's U.S. listeners? Comments and time will tell. By the Gods, for I am a Pagan this week, the music is supplied by @QuislingMeet And I tweet here: @nickmargerrison And Scottie McClue continues his one man mission to educate the world on twitter, here: @ScottieMcClue
