    What's good world, we back from the crypt with some more of that hood philosophy shit, and on this episode of the podcast I'm running back some of the happenings from the last four months that it's been since the last episode.

    I'm talking a little ancestral knowledge I've learned along the way, the significance of Xipe Totec, the influence of The Smiths, The Cure, and post-punk in general in the Xicano/a community and how wild it is that others are just finding out about that, why cholo culture being appropriated is mad cringe and... Donnie Darko.

    That movie is dope as hell, I use it to teach a lot of different parts of philosophy in class like time travel, free will, and the absurd to name a few - some of the real horrifying shit in life when we seriously pause to consider it.

    What's good world, we back from the crypt with some more of that hood philosophy shit, and on this episode we got lots to talk about.

      For starters, one of the Epstein lists has been released, and rather than talk about the human trafficking element side of it, I go in on the effect it's had on undermining the sovereignty of the United States instead.

    Don't get me twisted, the trafficking and exploitation of children is unquestionably reprehensible and the sickos that engaged in these actions deserve punishment to the fullest extent imaginable, but belying this is the real root of the problem that some Blue Anon MF'ers are still trying to dismiss.

     

    The US straight up has been bought and sold homie and the hustle only exists cuz our politicians were abusing their power, and that's the issue few are discussing. I got you though, and offer a little hope in the form of ancestral Nahuatl ways that show why such leadership is disgusting as well as how we can potentially fix it so we can build a better world from the smoldering ashes of this one.

    I close off by pulling a complete 180 and going in on some psychoanalytic film analysis on Belly, as mentioned in the previous episode. That movie is mad philosophical and deserves its flowers in my humble opinion, and DMX and Nas team up with Hype Williams to give us a masterpiece on what it's like to navigate the struggles of the hood.

    What's good world, we back from the crypt with some more of that hood philosophy shit, and on this episode of the podcast, I'm running back some lingering thoughts on the episode I did with Allaa and talking about the ancestral responses to some of the points he advanced.

    I'm also digging into to religion in general and offering a multitude of ways in which I feel they can be interpreted. I'm talking everything from simple practices designed to ensure the survival of a small group of people to complex rituals designed to open portals as practioners prepare to transition from this dimension into the next.

    And somewhere in between all that I introduce the bi-cameral mind and how religion may very well be nothing more than a remnant of a time in human evolution where people were unable to recognize the voice inside their heads as their own and ascribed it to the voice of a 'god', instead.

    I'm not saying the Christian, Muslim, Jewish, or any other God aint real homie, I'm saying they have no bearing on my life cuz I am my ancestors and my ancestors are me, and when I die I will be welcomed back to the Mictlan with open arms to join them. In the mean time? Well, to quote the great Vince Staples, pimps needs Porsches and h*es need abortions, so if you thirsty please grab a Sprite.

    Stay woke fam...
