Leaving the 21st Century

As Brian returns from Boston, the gents talk about eastern North Dakota's own “Yankeedom.” Also discussed are all things Turkey: Paul of Tarsus, Kojin Karatani’s theory of  “isonomia,” and Kurdistan as both the seat of this century's decentralized model of political organization and the source of a new theology. Why? Because as with the Christian Church, it's unlikely that the nation-state will make it out of this century without a similarly egalitarian and decentralized pivot left.
