I have a chat with Odin Moja (WotanZA), resident computer scientist of South African Twitter who did his Master's Thesis on the topic of Artificial Intelligence, Co-founder of The NoScript Show tech podcast, father of the Wotanism, proud Tswana, and whiskey appreciator.

I have a conversation with Tim Noakes about the lies and myths millions of people still believe about nutrition, food and health, the food pyramid, red meat as the in vogue public enemy number one, cholesterol, the low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet (Banting), and more.

I have a chat with Brendon Hill, an online green thumb and successful urban farmer living in Johannesburg.

I have a chat with David Bullard about satire, freedom of speech, mocking the elites, the South African political zeitgeist(s), the great liberal slide away, embracing the chaos in South Africa, and more.

I talk to Martin van Staden about the fundamental right to freedom of expression, why debates about it are inherently controversial, the banning of the old South African flag or "Apartheid flag", the Prevention and Combating of Hate Crimes and Hate Speech Bill, and more.

I discuss the archetype of the storyteller, its significance, why civilizations and communities need storytellers, and the oral tradition most Western cultures have lost.

I chat with Hügo Krüger, a South African structural engineer who did his Masters degree in the field of nuclear energy, writer and podcast host, about the piece he co-authored, 'The New Great Game'. We discuss the nuanced factors regarding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, modern resource wars, the mirage of "Net Zero", nuclear energy, and the “useful idiots” in the West, the environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) movement (woke capital), and much more.

Episode 100 of Stream of Consciousness I dedicate to reading and analyzing Samuel Huntington's incisive and prescient 1997 essay 'The west and the rest', in light of developments in the Western world at large in recent years.
