Definitions can be difficult sometimes, especially when the word you are floundering to define doesn't really have a concrete definition, but rather a multitude of different applications and associations.  It's best then to define something with double negatives, as I try to demonstrate in this Episode 280: Sky Father The Uncrumbly.

Categorizing certain things is important.  Over-categorizing them, though, can be more damaging to one's understanding than not categorizing things at all.  Lately, I've realized that categorizations have impeded understanding our world to the point that perhaps we should just jettison certain categorizations altogether.  Hence, Episode 279: Why Capitalists Don't Exist.

For reasons I hope to make clear soon, advertising is not foremost on my mind right now.  I made a realization that a great change will quite possibly befall us, and… I have no idea when.  To understand my thinking on this, though, I feel it's necessary to give some background.  Hence, some background in this Episode 275: Nullius In Verba.

Attack Ads! The Podcast

What's that phrase?  One step forward, two steps back?  For every positive step our society takes, it seems there are invisible forces trying to drag every step in a quite negative direction.  I'll explore one example of just this in this Episode 274: Our New Normal… Is Abby.

There are far more thinkers whose writings can explain phenomena better than most; but thanks to ruthless historical suppression, those thinkers are not even considered.  I'd like to frame a few economic problems many of us are facing today to the philosophy of Henry George in this Episode 272: Henry Saw This Coming.
