Deep Lore of the Mind

BOY HOWDY WE GET ROWDY Hello friends, welcome back to another very calm and normal episode of the Deep Lore of the Mind podcast here on Spotify, Amazon, and Apple. There are definitely no giggles in this episode, and we take every word very seriously. On a completely unrelated note, make sure your kids can’t hear this episode when you’re listening. Thanks for joining us! Music by Stephen Newman.

We’re back and we’re continuing our discussion on money!! Doc gets a little fired up because the main talking point this week is about the amount of money you have equating to your moral virtue, and Doc vehemently disagrees. Don’t mind the fact I had to cut out a bit of discussion because of his word choices. Thanks for joining us! Music by Stephen Newman.

(sorry this episode is a couple days late) Here’s our Halloween special, where we talk all about why some people enjoy being scared - even to the point of seeking it out! Turns out, there’s actually a lot of reasons why someone might want to watch a scary movie or go to a haunted house. I mean, Doc won’t, but someone might. Doc is bad at scary things. Thanks for joining us! Music by Stephen Newman...

Sometimes, we find that we’re interacting with views or opinions that we find wrong or even offensive. Rather than writing off the person saying these things or getting ready to fight them, have you ever stopped to consider what the deeper reason for their stance may be? In this episode, we talk about how understanding can be pivotal to having a productive conversation. Thank you for joining us! M...

Amy begins this episode with a very poignant quote, so be sure you really drink that in. Afterward, we continue to harp on hookup culture and some of the problems it perpetuates while diving into some personal experiences of our dear hosts’ around that topic. Loosely around that topic, in some cases, but still. As a side note, 👾 is the emoji that Amy was talking about regarding bug catchers, in c...

This week, we have James back in town! We leverage his expertise of all things Marvel to begin to go over what Jungian social archetypes each of our New Avengers seem to fit into. We go over the Orphan, Eternal Child, and Shadow, with many more to come. Also, Yelena is the love of my life. Thank you for joining us! Music by Stephen Newman.

Diamalynne was deep in her despair this week, just contemplating how the economy looks in comparison to how much she can make with a full time job. So, Doc comes in it’s some explanation of how this system came to be. Also, why is Bitcoin? I mean, just overall? And let us know where you want your homes to be because I must know!!! Thank you for joining us this week! Music by Stephen Newman.

Amy is so back, baby! We talk about a plethora of topics, as we tend to do. And we laugh a lot. As we tend to do. Side note: coincidentally, I have a date tomorrow with someone new, so let’s hope there’s no ghosting in this graveyard 🤞 Thanks for joining us! Music by Stephen Newman.

All I really want to point out is that when Doc called the mind the “locus of motion” at the end of the episode, I used all my power and self control to not say anything about how that sounds like the word locomotive and make a train of thought joke. You’re welcome, everyone. Thank you for joining us! Music by Stephen Newman.

Alright, apparently Doc had some people that wanted to fight him over the whole rant on pavement princesses last week. So this week, we have a far more levelheaded conversation as we get into the specifics of striving, and how compensation can manifest in different ways. Don’t worry, at the end of the episode he promises to get salty next week, maybe we’ll even have a full blown fist fight next ti...

If it wouldn't tank the searchability of this episode, it would just be titled 🧂🧂🧂 because WOW, there are some big feelings being thrown around this week.🧂We talk about big trucks, tiny dicks, and our experiences with them. Well, about experiences with the big trucks, mostly. Anyway, thank you for joining us this week! Music by Stephen Newman.

It's us again, we just can't stop releasing episodes! We have Amy back, and we go on a couple of funny digressions but it always ends up from the heart. And the heart of it all is hammering purity culture, which is always nice and cathartic for me to hear about. Wait, this isn't about me? Anyway, thanks for joining us! In Utah and need a therapist? Amy is open for clients! https://www....

Aaaaaand this week, in the third corner... Krystal Fullmer!! We bring Krystal on to hear her insights about Truth, where our responsibilities lie when in relation to other people, and connections she's made about humanity and humility. We talk about marriage, divorce, friendships, even passing strangers on the street, and what they may be deserving of just simply by Being. Thank you for joinin...

Ladies and gentlemen, theys and thems, we’ve got James Pemberton on the podcast with us today! James is someone who took classes from Doctor D, and he left quite an impression on our dear Doc. James is a deep thinker, a kind soul, and an overall homie who can definitely hang. We dive into his experience with racism, some of the deep lore of where racist systems have stemmed from, and why “I don’t...

Amy’s back in the house toniiiiight!!! This episode, we go off about seeking out diagnoses to justify shirking responsibility rather than expand your possibilities for being. Then we go off about narcissism. Then we go off about red pill/black pill culture. We seem to go off a lot, huh? Thank you for joining us! In Utah and needing a therapist? Amy is available for new clients: https://www.psychol...

After some recent tragedies in the lives of the hosts, Doc and Diamalynne return to finish their discourse on good. Of course, I say “finish” lightly, because we almost always return to or recall topics we’ve covered in the past. Bottom line? Despite it all, you can still be kind. Even when it’s hard, especially when it’s hard, you can be kind. Thank you for joining us! Music by Stephen Newman.

I was coming in chanting about starting a riot, but I guess that sort of violence is not exactly the revolution Doc is talking about. This week, we continue talking about the absolute nonsense that is goodness. We even pull in loving your enemies, which seems like a wild concept, right? It may be hard, but it's hard to deny Doc has a point with that one. Thank you for joining us this week! Mus...

Okay, so we've dived (dove? diven? hmm) REALLY deep into the logical way that evil works in the past few episodes. Using the depth we've delved (dove?) into, let's start breaking down how good falls to that equation. The further we go, the more the divers (diven-ers? diviners is a real word and that is a little bit confusing as far as the joke I'm making so I'm going to give up...

Another episode, another visit from Amy! We talk about social media and the ways that has influenced how we project ourselves and perceive one another, as well as what "nonchalance" has done to the process of dating these days. Doc talks about his experience in the olden times, which sounds like another universe to someone like Diamalynne. Thank you for joining us! In Utah and needing a...

This week, we dive into reciprocity, revenge, and "eye for an eye" - where does evil fall in those ideas? Is it evil to be looking out for a friend when they have evil enacted upon them? How far reaching is this deep lore, really? Thank you for joining us as we wrap up the logic of evil, and join us next time as we tackle something new! Music by Stephen Newman.

It's always going to come back to Dungeons & Dragons here on Deep Lore of the Mind, and this week is no different. We begin this discussion of evil by using the alignment chart in D&D, and explaining how even though it all manifests in different ways, it all still follows the logic of evil. We tend to put things in nerd terms so Diamalynne can understand. Thank you for joining us! Musi...

This week has some pretty dark stories in it - we're talking about how evil has its own internal logic that many people end up participating in. We also talk about the varying degrees in which evil manifests, all the way from a high school mean girl to a brutal serial killer. This week we take the vibe down, it's been too nice in here lately. Thank you for joining us! Music by Stephen Newm...

This week we have an old friend of Doctor D's on the podcast - author, artist, survivor, and all around badass Keira Shae! We explore topics such as what Deity means to each of us, how constricting dogmatism can be, and we touch again on the topic of "only you can make you happy." Here is the link to Keira's memoir, go support her! https://a.co/d/6bdYZCM Music by Stephen Newman.

This week Diamalynne starts by calling herself out a little bit, but I swear it pertains to the episode topic. We cover eight different ego defenses, brought to you by Freud. There are some hefty stories as examples this episode, and Doc and Diamalynne get particularly mad about one of them. The lore runs deep with this one, so buckle in. Thank you for joining us! Music by Stephen Newman.

Are you proud of me? I didn't even make the classic Skeksis noise one time. This episode does get kind of gross with descriptions of expulsions, thanks to Doc's colorful and imaginative use of words. But, we're talking about Freud's stages of development for a large part of it, so that's inherently kind of gross. What else was he to do, water it down? No thank you to that. Anyw...
