La Fool and A wrap up their chat about Mars and wander back toward Earth. We explore Hollow Earth possibilities; lost knowledge of past civilizations; Cannabis/Hemp as a solution to various Mars challenges; mining the Moon; and a giant ring around the Earth populated by a trillion humans.

In modern times we have tended to look out and away. Why not look to our center?

Have you considered volunteering for a venture to Mars? Would you be interested in living in the new Musk colonies?

It may sound far fetched now, but give it some time. That type of conversation will soon be commonplace among many people that we know. 

The question is- would you consider going, if the opportunity came knocking at your door?

Just think about it. We have planted a seed in your mind. Check out this episode and let's water that seed. Please enjoy and share.

Recorded August 26th 2020, A's reference to astrology launches us deep into the United States' past and the alignment of timelines.

We explore how black lives matter and how history draws a direct line, direct reflection, and direct rhyme to the American present. How we respond in this century will echo and rhyme into the future. What do you want that rhyme to be?

Proslavery Missourians who voted and participated in Kansas’s territorial politics legally, extralegally, illegally, and often with threats and violence were the first to be called border ruffians.

The 1856 Republican National Convention Party Platform called for Kansas to be admitted as a Free State; and in clear, direct language strongly opposed slavery.

The 1856 Democratic National Convention went 17 rounds, ultimately nominating Buchanan and Breckinridge.

If you want to know the future, take a good look at the past. Recorded right after the election, we speculate Biden's potential picks.

And then we talk Secretary of State and war: Does Biden have a trigger finger? Let us know what you think!

Doubtful that intelligent beings live inside the Earth, A challenges La Fool to back up his belief. Along the way we delve into Roseanne Barr's influence on female comics and Donald Trump's run for President. We also get into whether or not space exploration is more important than exploration on Earth and whether or not any valid evidence for the Hollow Earth hypothesis exists.

Presently A remains unconvinced.
