Welcome back, folks! This week I'm doing an episode that I feel like I probably should've done a long time ago -- but everything comes in due time, and here it finally is! Two and a half hours hashing out outers-space through the lens of philosophy, alchemy, and metaphysics.
Diving into topics like the symbolism of outer-space from ancient to modern day; the possibilities and pros/cons of colonizing other planets; whether or not human survival for any deep length of time in space is possible; the history of Operation Paperclip and Warner Von Braun and the extremely dark legacy this paints on our space pursuits as a human culture; Jack Parsons and the history of NASA through Jet Propulsion Labs, including all his weird sex magick, his hang-outs with L. Ron Hubbard, and the absolute brilliance of his self-taught rocketry! And if that wasn't enough, I even take the time to dissect the Moon Landing a bit, discussing why people think that Stanley Kubrick faked the footage and what some of the key details of the hoax theory are. It's one wild fuckin ride this week, I hope you dig it!
