Didactic Mind

I got an interesting query from LRFotS Randale6, asking about what kind of dictatorship we can expect in America. It's pretty obvious that the USSA is, indeed, headed straight toward dictatorship of some kind, but the precise kind is hard to figure out. Here's his question in full: Periods of extreme leftism and subversion (at least in Europe) have previously heralded the rise of such figures as H...

This week's episode is about how the turmoil and madness that we see in the physical world, mirrors the Great War between Heaven and Hell. I discuss how the concerted, extremely over the top, push-back against nationalist leaders and peoples in Russia, China, and now Hungary and Serbia, is a straightforward manifestation of spiritual evil that dates back to BEFORE the Flood (no, not the HALO kind,...

In this latest episode of the podcast, I analyse the current geopolitical situation by starting with the Russian strategy in the special military operation (or invasion - take your pick) in Ukraine. I talk about the misconceptions and outright lies told by Western analysts and presstitutes about the war and the way it is going, and point out that the way the Russians are fighting is fundamentally...

In this latest episode of the Didactic Mind podcast, I talk about the current strategic situation in Ukraine, to the best of my knowledge, and point out that, regardless of the Western propaganda and nonsense on the subject, Ukraine is DOOMED to lose this war. I predict that we will see the partitioning of Ukraine, which would be a tragedy of epic proportions for all concerned, but probably a nece...

This week's podcast concerns the lies that we have been told about the war in Ukraine. I examine the roots of the war, unpack some of the lies being told in the course of fighting it, and point out where this endless stream of nonsense and bullshit is taking us - and it is nowhere good. In the course of all of this, I hope you will get some new perspectives on Russian history and thinking, and abo...

This week's podcast is even more... ranty than usual, mostly because it concerns the horrible war in Ukraine. As those who read my work will know quite well, I am firmly on Russia's side in all of this, but I hope and pray for this war to end quickly, with minimal bloodshed and loss of life on both sides. I never wanted to see Russians and Ukrainians taking up arms against each other, and I pray G...

This week's podcast is all about how you can add value to people's lives, and finding those people who bring value to yours. I break it down into 7 basic principles, as enumerated in the podcast itself, and take you on a journey to achieving your own telos, or potential, as I wrote about in a post from some years back. Those steps are, essentially: Understand that time = value; STFU about yourself...

The podcast is back, finally! This episode is all about the modren state of the medical industry, and consists of an examination of the career of Anthony Fraudci, one of the greatest servants of evil that we have ever seen, and his complicity in some of the biggest medical scandals and cover-ups of our time. I talk about the excellent new book, The Real Anthony Fauci by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and...

We're back with a new podcast, this time answering an interesting query from LRFotS Robert W. He asked me for my thoughts about inter-cultural communications , based on a particular book, in light of my 2021 reading list: RE Five Love Languages By Gary Chapman: My wife and I read this as part of a group study within the first two years of our marriage. It was a useful read but seems like it was a...

HAPPY NEW YEAR, everyone!!! May Our Lord's blessings and peace be upon you in 2022, in the name of Christ Jesus! Let us look forward to the new year in hope, faith, and love, as we strive always to give glory to the Almighty. Here is the New Year's podcast, as always, and today is a special day indeed, for it also happens to mark the 9th birthday of the Didact persona. (Well, my version of the Did...

Merry Christmas, everyone! May the Lord's peace and blessings be upon you and your family. The Didactic Mind podcast returns for Christmas with reflections upon what the day means, and why it is so important. I talk about the reasons why this day matters, how its significance translates into our everyday lives, and where the Christmas tradition of gift-giving comes from. I also talk about how thin...

Here's the second of the day's Domain Query series, based on a very interesting long comment from LRFotS Kapios on my post about resilience: It gets worse before things get better. Knowing that intellectually and feeling it to every last bone in your body is a big difference as I’ve realized. There is one subject that I would like to see you tackle in a post sometime in the future, and that is ove...

The Domain Query series is finally back with a new episode - two of them in one day, actually - with a very involved and interesting question from LRFotS Randale6, which I quote in full below: A request for one of your next episodes, I suppose you could call it "hope for a hailmary woman or just grind on". I was walking in the park one day and noticed something, all the couples walking the paths h...

The Didactic Mind podcast is back, finally, with a new episode dedicated entirely to the Coof. Yes, I know, it's kind of old hat at this point, but the emergence of the new so-called "Omicron Strain" has stretched the credibility and gullibility of the Sheeple to, and in many cases well beyond, the breaking point. The result has been protesting and anger on a massive scale across Europe, and that...

This week's podcast is undoubtedly going to be a tad... controversial, because I go over a very wide range of subjects, ranging from Catholic doctrine and how some of it doesn't make sense, to recent events, to eschatology and the End Times, and finally the corrupted nature of the Word-Faith and NAR movements. I start by talking about the Catholic doctrines of Purgatory and the immaculate concepti...

This week's podcast is all about strategic thinking and design, and is inspired by the life, work, and thought of Col. John Boyd - "40-second Boyd", the fighter pilot without a single kill to his name, who single-handedly revolutionised the art of war and changed the way that we think about warfighting. Col. Boyd used to have a standing bet with the other pilots around him - they could start on hi...

This week's episode of Didactic Mind is all about embracing the conflict that we find ourselves embroiled in - physically, mentally, and most importantly, spiritually. I talk about the world we are living in right now, built on lies as it is, and I walk you through the best ways to fight against it. This one is not for those who need fainting couches every time they hear something that they disagr...

At long last, the Didactic Mind podcast returns! This week is all about the parallels between Ayn Rand's (in)famous magnum opus, Atlas Shrugged, and the daily realities of life under governments that hate us and want to see us persecuted and destroyed. I talk about "Going Galt" in terms of the way that Rand herself looked at the idea, and in terms of how it can be done in a proper Christian contex...

This week's podcast about the current mess we find ourselves in with respect to governments around the world arrogating to themselves powers that they were never supposed to have in the first place. I look at the core reasons as to why this is happening, and I provide you with some ideas about how to fight back, in a wide-ranging discussion that covers a number of different topics. I specifically...

The Didactic Mind podcast is finally BACK - after a 3-week or so delay, much to my regret, due to various (quite pleasant, actually) circumstances in my personal and professional life. The elapsed time has, however, proven fruitful, because a number of crazy things have happened in the past few weeks that provide us with PLENTY of material for discussion. In this week's podcast, I talk about: What...

The Didactic Mind podcast is back to something approaching a sort-of-regular schedule again, and this week's episode is all about the sudden and quite dramatic collapse of America's failed Syracuse Expedition in Afghanistan. I talk about the roots of its failure, the lessons to be learned (which of course the American military will utterly fail to heed), the folly and stupidity and arrogance of Wi...

The Didactic Mind podcast is BACK!!! And for this week's episode - the first in 2 months - I have a highly relevant series of topics lined up to discuss, including: What it is like to have the Coof, or something like it; How to confront the lies of this world; The core attribute that sets Christianity apart from all other religions, which are based on works and not faith; What the Scripture actual...

In this week's podcast, I talk a bit more about the hive-mind nature of evil, the ways in which evil seeks to control us, and the manner in which the work of Dr. Michael Heiser can help us to explain and understand the motive force behind the madness we see in the world today. I talk about why the plans of the Luciferians continually fall apart, and how you can do your part to ensure that those pl...

This week's podcast is quite a bit longer than usual, because it goes DEEP into the subject of historical criticism of Islam. I unpack much of the latest evidence that we have about the very obscure origins of Islam. Following the data and evidence that Dr. Jay Smith from Pfander Films has collected, I unpack the issue of Islam's origins through 5 specific polemical lines of attack - as he calls t...

We're back this week with a new episode of Didactic Mind, after a week off. Today I discuss the ways in which questioning the standard "Narrative" will get you labelled as a heretic, and why that is no bad thing. I talk about how many of the narratives that we take for granted are, in fact, absolute lies, and I discuss ways in which you can unpack those lies and get to the truth. References Lauren...
