The 50 Minute Hour

The boys sit down with returning guest Jonathan (of seminal fame) to discuss the illusion of morality, the failure of the west to deal with the Euthyphro dilemma, caste hierarchy as the medium of determining one’s ethical status and rules, and the theology of St. Dionysius the Areopagite who discovered the God beyond good and evil long before Nietzsche.

The boys discuss the rise and fall of psychology and its inherent relation to religion.

The boys return from hiatus to discuss what’s been happening during their absences, Freud, Jung, Kant, and 9/11

The boys return to discuss the highly misunderstood perennial or Hermetic tradition. Are all religions true? Don’t they all contradict each other? What is the Dao, the Way, the Logos, the Light?

The boys discuss Ivan Ilyin, Dugin, 4th political theory, and the woes of mankind.

The boys discuss pharmakon per Plato and the Bible, the nature of magic, shamanism and its relation to psychoanalysis and the media, hypnotism, and the ontotheology of eye contact

The boys return to discussing the demons and the occult, including vampire cults, voodoo dolls, giants, and the levels of demonic possession.

The boys discuss the realm of the demons, spirits, the occult, and their everyday effects on the world and ourselves.

The boys discuss ideology as fashion and sexuality as identity, and how unique modernity is in respect to sexuality and sexual identity compared to the rest of history.

The boys give a quick rundown of tarot and how it got corrupted in the enlightenment and the new age into becoming a divinatory art, but that at heart it has nothing to do with the "occult" or divination, and proceed to give a live reading to one of Calvin's friends, Hank.

The boys discuss over a nice pipe the (false) dichotomies of lucid dreaming and astral projection, myth and history, monotheism and polytheism, esoteric and exoteric, science and faith, dragons and dinosaurs, the word of God, and The Word of God.

The boys discuss wine moms, St. Dionysius the Areopagite in relation to Aquinas and the west, ideology, and the subliminal object of ideology.

Cory and the gang discuss icons, Plato's Phaedrus, the danger of photography, art, the Unabomber, and the perversion of religion towards the totalizing ideology of our pornographic spectacle of the modern world.
