Night Rule returns in a new, perhaps monstrous form. 

We again read from and discuss Melanie Magidow's fantastic new English translation of the timeless Arab Epic:

Dr. Philip Herschenfeld is a psychiatrist based in New York. I try to stump him with some YouTube-gleaned Hegel before we move onto a far-reaching discussion of psychoanalysis, personality, the 1979 film "Breaking Away" and much much more. 

Philip appears regularly on The David Feldman show and I highly recommend checking him out there as well.

Follow the show @PodRule and feel free to reach out in any of the sacred or ancient languages. Leave us a review on Apple podcasts in Sumerian - reviews written in Sumerian really help grow the pod!

Much Love!

I was extremely pleased to get a chance to converse with Breen Ouellette, NDP Candidate for Vancouver Centre, as the federal election approaches. We discussed a wide range of issues and the discourse surrounding them.

Breen is a tireless fighter for many causes and fully deserves any support you can give! This may be a close one!
