Springtime is Party Time!

Send us Fan MailWhat's up to my verdant vicuñas and riotous rockhoppers!  Welcome back to the BNP everyone and thank you so much for joining. Shouts to my patrons: you're the creosote in my medicinal Chaparral tea, thank you for being anti-viral and alleviating stomach cramps! You are appreciated. This week's ep is a fun one folks! We got the zany audio tidbits. We give a tip of the hat to Ostara, the Saxon Goddess of the Dawn and Patroness of the Spring Equinox. We got Terence McKenna talking about the world being made of magic. We have a meandering solo meditation on the Source of all True Motivation, techniques for discovering one's deeper purpose and the spiritual salve that is creative expression.Switching gears to more utilitarian matters, we then discuss is the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act, which was ushered in by everyone's favorite narcissist, ex-prez O-bomb-a, and which makes it perfectly legal and chill for the American intelligence and security state to propagandize directly to American citizens. I know, shocking right? Ahem.Next we take a look at the highly suspicious auto wreck that killed the investigative journalist Michael Hastings, and finally we take a trip south of the Caribbean to Venezuela, to visit the Luisa Cáceres de Arismendi Commune, which has successfully taken over trash collection and management of the general store in its hometowns of Barcelona and Puerto la Cruz, and which shows how genuine self-governance outside the purview of the state is possible.
