Episode Notes

Religion, belief, faith - social and personal structures that have followed and intertwined with human development for millennia.

Or are there other, sinister forces that have taken the place of faith and emerged as a new, "real" god?

Let's try to talk it through and see if staring into the eyes of the unholy turns us madder than we already are.

Phil and Kyle would also like to give a shout out to those of us still in the streets fighting for the rights of Palestinians and those fighting for justice and abolition of the American police state. The best way to show solidarity with those struggling against the American empire is to struggle against the empire at home.
