EP 30 – Monism, Dualism, and Backpacking

Happy birthday, Matt! Erik went to visit Matt over his birthday weekend, and we celebrated with brewery visits, beer tasting, hiking in the woods, and a good old philosophical discussion. In this episode, please join us as we go on a long adventure around Gig Harbor, Tacoma, and Olympia, discussing the differences between monism and dualism and how they have influenced and built the Western Mystery Tradition.The BeerCigar Box Cedro Deluxe IPA and Mo Pale Ale from Tacoma Brewing Co.Hopworks Deluxe Organic Ale (DOA) from their 10th Anniversary partyFive of Swords and Ten of Swords, collaborations between Engine House №9 and Holy Mountain BrewingThe Dual American Wild Ale from Engine House №9Silver City Ziggy Zaggy PilsnerFort George Matryoshka StoutTopicsDualism and MonismMcCormick Forest Park in Gig HarborThales of MiletusDouglas-firBackpacking hammockExtra socksMarlene Seven BremnerOlympia Arts WalkBurial Grounds"Grrrrarrrurrrr.
