Episode #133: The Air-Conditioned Nightmare
November 9, 2024 6:00pm
Welcome to the Air-Conditioned Nightmare.
You know it whether you want to admit it or not, you're living in it.
Rampant consumerism, misinformation, disconnection, and all the superficial facets of day to day living. Why it is so important to find purpose and connectivity in our lives in a world that is and becomes more and more absurd each day.
This is a big cynic dump of audio to chuckle at, think about, and hopefully glean something from. George Carlin is at the center of this, as he had insights that he disguised as comedy. A lot of wisdom in those bits and he pops up repeatedly in this show. Please enjoy responsibly.
