This one feels good. That said, it’s funny how you hit a benchmark and you just feel like you have so much further to go. Regardless, massive love to everyone that's part of hitting this digit.
Truthfully, there is irony here - Despite numbers going up, it's really the same as it's always been.
Mostly solitary, personal and
psychological. I do hope to change that as this outlet continues to evolve. Of course the exploration and grind shall continue and I'm very excited for what's to come. 🫶

Tonight at 7pm ct— A multifaceted riff session on the many dimensions of the UFO / UAP phenomenon with journalist, author of the UFO Paradox and seeker, Keith Thompson. I was really impressed with the depth and breadth of Keith’s knowledge and how nuanced his take on all of this is. Hope you can make the premier! You can check out some of the unused art for this episode below 👇

One for the fellow esoteric nerds — Ever since reading about the soul/star connection in Jung's Red Book and later learning it goes back to Plato's Timaeus (at least), I've been a bit obsessed. Pretty stoked to have found the actual Greek terminology here (augoeides soma).
The book is Theurgy and the Soul by the great Dr. Gregory Shaw.

Come hang at 7pm ct!
This week we’ve got a particularly mirthful, insightful mind meld with philosopher, scientist, author, and mystic, Dr. Tom Cheetham.
Like most of my favorite thinkers, Tom holds multiple kinds of wisdom. He has a rigorous academic background in philosophy and science. He even spent years as a biology and environmental studies professor.
But even with all of that technical expertise, Tom still thirsted for something more, something beyond the material.
That something more arrived in the form of mythopoetic geniuses like author and psychologist, James Hillman, Carl Jung and, especially, philosopher and author Henry Corbin.
The above wizarding triad led Tom to a decades-long on-going obsession with understanding the visionary, and the imaginal. The realm Corbin called the "mundus imaginalis."

Greetings, friends new and old! Want more thoughts on Plato’s Cave?
First— I’m thrilled that so many of you have checked out the video. It’s the biggest video debut I’ve ever had. Second, I actually had somewhat of a different vision for what would be covered in it initially. If you want to hear about it in a sort of director’s commentary way, check out the audio version of the Plato’s Cave episode wherever you listen to podcasts. There’s 10+ minutes of extra riffing!
Also here are two alternate pieces of art I almost used for the thumb.
