TSM180 : Knocking Down Icons and The Transformation of Mythology


Listen Later

Holy crap, so much for my time off the internet ! I suppose I just gave into an urge !
In today's monologue I talk a little about the popular habit of knocking down icons - iconic thinkers of the past and why this is such a stupid thing to do ! (Note I accidentally called Nikola Tesla Nikoli - because I suppose I prefer the Russian variant). Later I explore the idea of mythology from a modern and an ancient perspective and look at why ancient mythologies maybe more meaningful than most modern mythologies. During this discussion I take a brief swipe at the modern fetish with tattoos, which is bound to upset a few people.
