BRICKS IN THE WALL PART 2
MARCH 20, 2022 AARON SMITH SEASON 1 EPISODE 22
SHOW NOTES:
Today, in Episode #22, we continue our conversation with Pete Gahagan, regarding the Western model of education. This portion of the interview is focused mainly on the underlying movements that have contributed to what we see, institutionally in our educational structures. We also find ways in which we can foster the use of healthy educational tools in the classroom and in our personal lives. Our observations come from the perspective of outsiders, a fact Pete and I readily acknowledge. If you are an educator and would like to share your personal experiences, please feel free to email me. I would love to broaden my understanding of this important topic.

BRICKS IN THE WALL PART 1
MARCH 13, 2022 AARON SMITH SEASON 1 EPISODE 21
SHOW NOTES:
Today, in Episode #21, we feature the first of a two part interview with Pete Gahagan, AKA Pete G, who shares some of the observations he has made about the educational system in the U.S. Of course, these observations are not confined to the US; many of them are pertinent to any place in Western civilization, to some degree or another. First and foremost, I want to acknowledge that being a teacher is an extremely challenging career.

INSTEAD OF SHEEP
MARCH 06, 2022 AARON SMITH SEASON 1 EPISODE 20
SHOW NOTES:
The current events flooding the news waves have been making me think about how much I distrust the information that I receive from MSM. The real-world suffering of people being used to further the goals of elitist globalists, who are unlikely to feel any real consequences for their actions, can be disheartening. I hope that Episode #20, though somewhat shorter than the other shows, will be an uplifting respite from the madness.

UNDER MY THUMB
FEBRUARY 27, 2022 AARON SMITH SEASON 1 EPISODE 19
SHOW NOTES:
This week's Episode #19 takes another look at Biderman's Chart of Coercion, but from a different perspective. The abusive and authoritarian actions we have been subjected to over the last couple of years need to be acknowledged if we are going to be able to recognize them moving forward. The tactics are not new, nor are they relevant only to the current events. Coercion is anathema to consent. The more we understand the tactics of totalitarianism, the less likely they will be effective against us.

RUSTY CAGE
FEBRUARY 13, 2021 AARON SMITH SEASON 1 EPISODE 17
SHOW NOTES:
Domestic violence is not something we like to talk about or even think about, but it is the daily reality for many. What preconceptions do we have about what it looks like or about the people who experience it? In Episode #17, we do some soul-searching. I share some information that I sincerely hope helps you understand this difficult topic. If you are a victim of domestic violence or have been a witness to it, I hope you can be encouraged by this content.

UNCOMFORTABLY NUMB
JANUARY 30, 2021 AARON SMITH SEASON 1 EPISODE 15
SHOW NOTES:
Information is in no short supply in the modern world. In Episode #15, we delve into some ancient information: Plato's Myth of Thamus and Theuth. We discuss the story in relation to our heavy reliance on search engines to find accurate information. We also touch on the potential consequences of focusing only on the world around us—the outside world—instead of looking within ourselves.

GIVE A LITTLE BIT
JANUARY 23, 2021 AARON SMITH SEASON 1 EPISODE 14
SHOW NOTES:
The moral framework in which we operate guides our decisions. Sometimes that framework can become imbalanced between the empirical and mythical. What is the basis for charity? In Episode #14, we begin a discussion about meaning and morality. We discover that the hard, unfeeling approach of the strictly objective does not account for the human tendency for charity.

FREE FALLIN'
JANUARY 16, 2021 AARON SMITH SEASON 1 EPISODE 13
SHOW NOTES:
In Episode #13, we pick up where we left off last week. I go over the third and fourth conditions for Mass Formation, as described by Professor Mattias Desmet. And I offer an analysis of the events leading up to the pandemic that may have made us more vulnerable to being influenced and thus more desirous of joining the crowd.
Here's a link to the attempt by "fact checkers" to disprove the existence of Mass Formation by, you guessed it, an appeal to authority. No need for technocrats to construct actual arguments! https://twitter.com/i/events/1479934834164133893
