Puts the story of Tevye and his five daughters in its geopolitical context of the 1905 Pale of Settlement. Was Lazar Wolf, the wealthy butcher, really Lazar Kaganovich, Wolf of the Kremlin and butcher of Ukraine in the Holodomor? The second daughter marries a Marxist and I look at the Bolsheviks and the Red Terror as Tevye's revenge. The third daughter is 'dead to him' because she assimilates by marrying a Russian. I turn that logic around for who is excluding who. Is Palestine the new Holodomor or hunger extermination?

How do we deflect the Dark Arts of word spells? I spell out the steps of methodical thinking--state your purpose, own your dogma, put your rooster in the ring. I define four paradigms in socio-spirituality that I uniquely represent and why we should be agreeably disagreeable.

Does Victoria Nuland's resignation and the recent deaths of Kissinger and Rothschild mean a changing of the guard or a new level of the Dark Arts? I examine five videos on the latter, and then repost my video from two years ago, when Ukraine was a neocon dream and Nuland was a cherubic devil in a blue dress-suit. It sees Nuland as the Harry Potter villainess, Dolores Umbridge, back from Azkaban where she was sent for crimes against humanity (aka Muggles). She's now wreaking havoc from NATO to Iraq, Afghanistan to Libya, Syria to the Iron Maidan of Ukraine. I examine false-flag dementor/sniper attacks, horcruxes as WMD's, and Voldemort as world death. I explain the relevance of the NATO agreement, the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty, and the Budapest Memorandum. I end with a lesson from a 1947 Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Dorothy L. Sayer, on why "whole classes and nations are hypnotized by the arts of the spell binder" because we don't know how to decipher words and use logic to resist propaganda.

I tell a search & rescue saga with a moral about my daughter's husband. It involves four Christian crows, a mudslide, a hero-woman, a relentless dad and a wife who doesn't take 'have a nice day' for an answer when her husband's missing.

I compare the story of Adam & Eve, Cain & Seth to the mythologies of the gods Osiris & Isis, Horus & Set. The geopolitical history of Egypt and the Pharaohs parallels Seth as the usurper and deceiver, who kills his brother. I cite Bloodline of the Serpent Seed by Robert Sepehr and include AI art in the Substack version.

On the Duke Report, Peter and Jasun discuss trauma & mothers, magic & money, world wars & word wars. From Jasun's book Big Mother, he looks at immersive technology as the drive to return to the womb. Peter adds details on NLP as hypnosis made easy, two types of people, the Trivium, ontology and sci-fi as cognitive structuring. I add my thoughts on Malone, Irving, Corbett, and why we need real mothers and real logic to break the word spell.

Does a psychoanalysis of the patriarchs of Genesis from the view of the slave-wives, raped daughters and disinherited sons.

In this episode, I read my poem called Becoming Yeast and talk about prayer and forgiveness. I ask whether two people asking the same question, with more concern for getting the right answer than being right, is a special form of prayer.

In response to Caretology, I explain why mothers are natural economists, how carets could turn a golf course into a food forest, farm & restaurant, and why universal basic income is ordering pizza in your parent's basement. I continue to explore the caret system with William Hunter Duncan and John Wright.

Describes how to break the power of the bankers and enable distributed economic anarchy, which is self-governance, not chaos. The system change in my book, How to Dismantle an Empire, gives commonwealth banks the sole power to issue mortgages and the credit to repay them.

Alison McDowell's Camelot Corner analyzes Charles Eisenstein's talk at Bretton Woods and his deep connections in cryptocurrencies. She looks at RFK's talk at a Bitcoin conference and the false story of how the two met.

Reads a passage of the gnostic gospel of Philip and explains why first century Christians and Jews may have been followers of Judas the Sicariot, leader of the zealots. Compares it to passages from the Tao te Ching, A Course in Miracles, the Isha Upanishad, and a poem by May Sarton. In an essay called Coming Into One's Own, I look at the concept of Oneness in ancient and modern mystic scriptures.

Any change you can make as an individual, without changing the system, is a tweak that won't last. Challenges James Corbett's Solutions Watch that taking responsibility for our own happiness, even if that means shopping on Amazon, is better than judging others.

To kick off a year of better arguments, I start with the Big Questions. I define the given proof of Reality as something perceived by more than one person.
