I'm posting this well aware it has no value for anyone bar me, but i'm pretty excited.
Have you listened yet?Yes.
a round table discussion.None of this. Paul Kennedy is absent after a brief introduction. Laura Penny narrates. Bakker, Dunning, Gardner & Toplak contribute.
Is it good?It's ok. It's very much an intro into topics most on the forum have already delved deeply into. I don't think Bakker manages to quite explain the TPB theory to a general audience as clearly and succinctly as he could have (a tough task to be sure!). He seemed less eloquent than the other participants. One particular example he used to explain a brain engaging in introspection, was to compare it to an "anthropologist being nailed in a coffin with an amazonian tribesman". That was just weird to me.
Can't wait for my brain to be further ripped from my skull.Then don't wait! It's already up online!
Something that has been thrown around for a while is that people have been eating sranc all along, in the form of the mysterious drug that the Scarlet Spire seems to love. Though its name escapes me for now.Chanv coming from Sranc? Iyokus consuming it for all these long years? Interesting theory.
In the case of Sranc though, I really feel like that's going to have some horrible, grotesque negative effect in the long run. Eating Srancflesh is just way too freaking ominous. Maybe it will almost be like crack to the Nonman's cocaine?Um... Huge +1.
Quote from: bbaztekThis is fun. Now with half-baked plot speculation!
....Ch. 2 - Aorsi (zsoronga, proyas, kayutas) - first effects of eating sranc,
And I can listen to those links...Good! Thanks for testing it. They upload the shows onto the website fairly promptly so you should be able to listen to the show before 4pm on Dec 13th Melbourne time!
Yeah - Bakker mentioned in on his blog previously and it was originally scheduled for March.To refresh all memories:
I'm not sure if the host interviews each interviewee individually but I'm hoping that is a round table discussion. Cordelia Fine and Bakker interacting would probably make my head explodeI hope so too. Most of the time it seems it's one-on-one with the host Paul Kennedy..
Can somebody with a non-Canadian IP address try listening to a past episode (from all three links) to confirm that recording is necessary?Thanks, 2US! Hopefully folk can record it for those of us who are in other countries.I'll get it done, Callan.
