  • Running the Numbers with Nicco Augustave

    Running the Numbers with Nicco Augustave

    Joining for the last Not-a-Podcast Show of what I’m in hindsight calling Season One is Nicco Augustave. He is a co-host of the Aquarian Anarchy podcast and a young numerologist, tarot reader, and astrologer.

    I emphasize that he is young because it takes many years for people to become masters of these arts, not just from practice but from life experience. He is humble to this fact.

    Still, I wanted to bring him on because I’m interested in doing more purposeful, thematic episodes, especially with past guests. It takes at least an hour to get to know someone, so my first interview with someone will be most about their life and perspective.

    Nicco was one of my first guests, before I decided that one hour was going to be the format for Not-a-Podcast Show (before I had a title for the stream), and we talked for more than two hours.

    In this hour, I attempt to draw out the basics of numerology with Nicco and reveal the ways that numbers become synchronicity, and how to live without becoming obsessed with it.

    One takeaway is that I need to prepare a little more for episodes like this. We did our best but we both left feeling like the narrative got away from us. We talked about doing it again and bringing a third guest.

    I like Nicco, he’s an earnest, genuine young man exploring his consciousness, steadfast in his ethics, taking an unorthodox path in life against the grains of social norms. Respect.

  • Sex Magic with Marcus and Forest Mommy

    Sex Magic with Marcus and Forest Mommy

    Episode 25 of The-Not-a-Podcast Show is my first anniversary show, and it features two past guests together for the first time: Forest Mommy and Marcus.

    Marcus is an expert on occult practices and Forest Mommy is something of a sex magician. I wanted to bring us together to explore the topic because I realized that there is power behind every sexual experience, whether there is any physical contact between two people or not.

    Forest Mommy uses her sexual energy online to attract an audience and transmit the message of personal freedom, from coerced medical interventions to sexual choice. Marcus uses sex magic within his marriage and seeks a relationship with God.

    My blog is meant for the more personal admissions and reflections about the content than lets say a purely promotional tweet. That said, my questioning had something to do with my own personal experience with someone and I wanted to understand how someone can gain a degree of control over your consciousness without having sex with you. And vice versa. Things that most of us do, like think about someone while gratifying ourselves, can make connections to people energetically or subconsciously.

    I want to be more careful about this. Not only I should be aware of what that does to someone on that level, but what it does for me. The imagination is more powerful than most people would admit. To consecrate my feelings for someone in my imagination is dangerous for myself as well, as it reinforces a potentially false reality. Magic is in many ways no more than the rippling of intention.

    The last thing I want to mention is the difficulty that I had keeping this interview on track. Forest Mommy admits on the show that she is pretty well drunk by the time we go live. I genuinely care for the woman whom I consider a friend and did not like seeing her in that shape for this show. On the other hand, from an objective standpoint, I was faced with interviewing a drunk person. I hope I handled it gracefully.

    With the chat room involved, it is a lively episode, my production value has improved and I’m looking forward to another year of episodes to come. Get it. To come. A verb in transitive.

    You can find Marcus on the Aquarian Anarchy podcast wherever you listen to podcasts. You can find Forest Mommy on YouTube where she hosts two regular occurring livestreams.

  • Finding God in Anarchy with Chad

    Finding God in Anarchy with Chad

    Chad breaks the spell of bad internet with an ethernet cable. The saga of my livestream has light at the end of the tunnel.

    I enjoyed my talk with Chad, the man from Men of Order, the great white Hotep, co-host to Aquarian Anarchy Podcast, and former Adam Kokesh operative. He is passionate and committed, but he discusses his weakness and near-resignation to mediocrity.

    Our conversation gets a little bumpy in the middle, and this is a Livestream, so if things go south you risk cutting your losses. No edits. Sometimes he glossed over some perspectives that I don’t totally jibe with.

    I remain very much aligned with the spirit of lefty politics. I continue to hang out in this community while making new friends in conservative circles. Whoever I talk to, I want to find the common ground that we share.

    That is what I do with Chad.

  • Guest Appearance on Aquarian Anarchy

    Guest Appearance on Aquarian Anarchy

    The guys over at Aquarian Anarchy, whose roster of guests include the leaders from the anarchy, hotep, and libertarian communities, were gracious enough to have me on last week.

    Two of the three hosts of the show were guests previously on my livestreams. They are very open people and believe in taking a chance on building relationships.

    Liberty through leftism is what they wanted to focus on. To most of my community, I have become alt-right. To these guys, I am still a lefty.

    I had to concede that I am more of a civil libertarian decentralist. This means that I have not concluded that the federal government is inherently a bad construction, as it can levy power in a decentralized way toward freedom in the fifty state system.

    I believe the federal government should be reduced to where local communities are self-determined, and the federal government is there to protect that.

    We argue about secession, which I find to be a dangerous move.

    We relax and talk about music, stuff like that. For a two-hour podcast, I think this one is compelling and entertaining, and reviews many of the most important issues surrounding us.

    There was a little stuff that I didn’t choose to argue. I am sure that my social justice friends will be appalled by one or two statements here, but I am not defending anybody. My own views are unsettled sometimes anyway.

    As a civil libertarian decentralist, I want everyone’s rights to be respected. I don’t have to understand someone to respect them. Minding my business and taking care of my own, this is the ethic that outlives all liberal and leftist mores.

    Where pure anarchists I believe go wrong is that they forget that we are the world and the world is us i.e. the state. Leftists also play into a victim mentality, forgetting that they have agency over themselves but not others, and so the government isn’t meant to protect and save us. The only people who seem to realize they are the state are the state is them are ones taking advantage of it. The real victory, to me, is flipping this mindset in America.
