American Gargoyle: A Cloven Hoof in the Homeland
22/08/2016 Duração: 16minIn this original fairytale, you meet an orange-faced Gargoyle. That short-fingered, cloven-hoofed, Vulgarian God is set upon the destruction of the world, and is served by three, misshapen, children as the rest of humanity are rendered mute with nukes. Then -- a child appears -- to tame the hatred, and stanch the drooling, with the gift of kindness; and the world is able to be re-birthed again, in the valley of the homeland.

Disability and Indifference
16/08/2016 Duração: 14minDo we still care to care for the disabled -- or do we only want them fixed? We discuss why we may think there are right protections in place, like the Americans With Disabilities Act, to guarantee and ensure equal access; but as society changes, Eugenics rises again, The Ugly Laws become revitalized, and we have a return to those who prefer to cull the herd instead of lifting up everyone. Even 23andMe are disaffected in wanting to fix instead of help!

Omne Trium Perfectum: The Rule of Three
15/08/2016 Duração: 23minWe believe in Threes -- for there is power in the multiple choosing! -- but, why? We consider Sigmund Freud's fascinating essay, "The Theme of the Three Caskets" to help divine answers in our need for a triple choice. Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice" and "King Lear" hold clues to caskets of gold, silver and lead and -- in the final absorption -- we find the unadorned, instinctual, reflexive, viral, choosing of The Goddess of Death as the real value in every human life.

Ubiquitous Distribution Channels

11/08/2016 Duração: 13minAristotle tried to give form to the function of the human soul. We search the human experience for meaning in the evolution of our communal concept of the soul -- ending in an indictment of what has become, in the Modern Age, the moral ubiquity of the Demon Soul!

We examine the life of Clarence Earl Gideon, a prisoner and petty criminal who helped guarantee our fundamental right to counsel and free access to a Public Defender.

01/08/2016 Duração: 09minWe fight for justice and pledge allegiance to each other and ourselves. How then, do we handle creators who give us public joy and communal introspection -- while their personal lives are broken to the bone and morally corrupt in the being?

-
Reflections in a Blind Soul
01/08/2016 Duração: 11minHow do we teach our children to tend their souls? Do we set an example for imitation? Or are children born with a soul that blindly leads them right?

Veneration in Death
