It has been QUITE a while since we last did a proper podcast - first I was busy, then I was stupidly busy, then I was on vacation, and then I was (and still am) sick. But nothing gets older than an excuse, so let us crack on with a great set of questions from LRFotS JohnC911:
Hey Didactic, I hope you are doing well my friend.
I have a few questions
On the subject of China demographics. If a Chinese government ask you could put any suggestions on what solutions what might you list?Also do you think Christianity if adopted by the Elites and laws enforce, could this help the demographics in the long run?Also why is it that a lot of Chinese women want date or marry non Chinese men? Is demographic a part of the issue, ie too many Chinese men and not enough Chinese women? Could it be as I have hear many cases the mother pushing them to find mostly white men? Mind you it is mainly Chinese women in their late 20s and 30s I have meet, might have to do with not having luck in China they search else where?
I had this Chinese woman in her late 20s at Church, she treated me better than any other woman I have dated. She brought me gifts and write me thank you letters after I took her out on dates, She would say many nice things about me. She would dress very feminine and She loved the Lord and we would talk about the Bible. She has now gotten marriage to a Chinese Husband and I am very happy for her. The next best women was a Korean woman. Also Japanese have been very pleasant to be around and date. Mind you I live in Australia so it is mostly European or Asians here, unless you go to Sydney or Melbourne.
But anyway I don’t know why but I often have better conversations with Asian women, especially north east ones that dress very conservative. Funny things is that they don’t get angry when I talk to them about Jesus and God. So many White women get angry on the topic and especially emotional. Maybe it is the pill, Korean women (3%), Japanese (0.9%), Chinese (14%) vs Australian (40%) probably higher for whites since many non white do not take it, English (45%) and American women (64%). It could also be IQ, on average North East Asians are higher than whites (mind you the White Europeans in Europe it is about the same).
I am coming to Europe soon, I am dating a few women while I am over there. What are your thoughts on Swedish, Swiss, English, Polish and/or Bulgarian women (less than 3% on the Pill, and fewest Covid shots)? Do you think any other countries I should explore?
That is a good meaty set of questions to answer. Let us carry on, then:.

Protect Yourself From Big TechI make some pretty incendiary statements in this podcast, and in most of my podcasts. I can only do so because I take steps to protect myself from the Big Tech companies, and preserve my identity. You need to do the same – this is no longer optional, because if you don’t, the gatekeepers WILL come for your head.

The Domain Query series is back, with a new episode inspired by a (lengthy) request from LRFotS Randale6, about how to achieve some degree of fiscal and geographical independence from the long, and increasingly corrupt and decrepit, arm of Uncle Shmuel:
By misfortune of my nationality (American) I am faced with a bit of an investment problem, the IRS has a complete and utter hatred of Americans investing in foreign stock markets (to the tune of taxing any capital gains from them at 40%, obliterating any gains from compound interest).
Once my English teaching stint is over and I transition over to international/bilingual schools I will be making enough money to begin serious investing, but the dollar is something I need to either escape or somehow make up for.
I see the following options but am open to more.
Moving to Russia: Owing to the west's sanctioning of Russia international schools in Russia seem to be having great difficulty with recruiting western teachers (from what I hear at any rate), this means that a less than ideal candidate (such as myself) will be considered, particularly by less than top notch schools.
I am lukewarm to Russia but...a pathway to citizenship that doesn't involve marriage is offered there (I will be blunt, no Natashas, they are not worth the headache), it won't give a flying fuck about the dollar collapsing and with Russian citizenship I can safely invest in their stock market (so long as i don't travel anywhere that has an extradition treaty with the USA).
Option 2 is betting against the USA...with dollars.
Simply put it would be putting money into such things as vanguard index funds that target overseas investments and betting that even if the dollar goes to hell that those investments will skyrocket enough to make up for the difference. I have no clue if this would work at all.
I am of course open to other options, but I am not sure if they even exist or what they are.
I answer this set of questions as follows:
First, I note the availability of the Foreign Earned Income Exemption, which provides for at least a modicum of tax relief for American citizens living abroad;Then, I discuss what it is like to live in Russia, and in other locations outside the West - it is NOT easy, at all, and those who do it, need to understand what they are getting into;I talk about the challenges, and opportunities, involved in opening up investment accounts in foreign lands, such as Russia - while it is possible, one needs to be careful about the bureaucracy involved, and be realistic about the challenges as well;I talk about the interesting and exciting world of emerging alternative investments, such as digital currencies and stablecoins, and traditional ways of diversifying your currency exposure, like precious metals and cash;One point I should have mentioned, but forgot, is that the demand for foreign English-speaking teachers in Russia is actually rapidly declining - while interest in those speaking Chinese or Asian languages, is spiking. This is because of Russia's rapid shift toward a true Eurasian posture. It is worth keeping this in mind - Russia is not an easy country to live in, even at the best of times, and nowadays, for foreigners, it is becoming substantially more difficult to enter.
However, I will say this - once you get past a few irritating hurdles, and you bother to take the time and learn the language, life in Russia can be quite pleasant, even wonderful, because of the advanced civilisation, culture, and humanity of its people.

The latest episode of the Didactic Mind podcast is back, finally, with a look at the collapsing Western empire. I discuss the ways in which the West is getting worse and worse - to the point where Western nations can barely figure out how to keep the lights on and the plumbing working - and how these are very obvious symptoms of late-stage imperial collapse. I discuss the predictions made by what was, honestly, an actual joke book, originally designed to mock the hell out of perhaps the biggest Gamma in the entire world of science fiction today. And I talk about how, if you travel around the rest of the world, "enshittification" is not nearly the problem that it is in the West. The root cause I identify here is the spiritual and moral corruption that has infected the West - and I note that there is simply no way one can VOOOOOOOTE HARRRRRDURRRRR!!! to get out of this mess.

Rejoice, brothers and sisters, for Christ is Risen! He is with us and between us on this most glorious of days, as we celebrate Easter and the day of His Resurrection. Today we acknowledge in faith and joy the promise that He made to us, and which He kept. In that spirit, I have put together a set of thoughts on the nature of Easter, what it means for us, and why His Hugeness gave us the signs He did. I also talk about the need to read through Scripture to understand His words, and the dangers of ignoring the clear signs of Scripture, and especially of rejecting the Trinity.

The Didactic Mind podcast is FINALLY back, after a long hiatus due to... well, sheer laziness, mostly, and a real lack of desire to talk about much of the craziness around us. Nonetheless, recent events in the West and Russia have made a podcast necessary to unpack some of the historical and political context behind them. In this episode, I talk about the parallels between the Fall of the Roman Empire, and the very obvious collapse of the FUSA. I discuss how Roman culture, philosophy, and political thought went from Rome, to Byzantium, to Moscow, and how Russia considers itself to be the true guardian of the ancient flame of Graeco-Roman legal philosophy, combined with Christian morality.
I then go into the ways in which the FUSA is falling to the exact same forces that destroyed first the Roman Republic, and then the Roman Empire. I quote the words of one of the Last of the Americans, St. Reagan of the Right, Ronald Magnus himself, to explain how the FUSA has taken a downward course that has doomed it to destruction. And I close with some rather sad words about how the only people who truly understand what America is about to face, are the very people that the neoclowns and GloboHomoPaedoPharisatanists want to exterminate - the Russians.

This latest Domain Query comes by way of LRFotS Randale6, who asks a pertinent and germane question about the difference between natural and artificial, or "learned", charisma, with examples provided as reference points:
Didact, what are your thoughts on natural vs artificial charisma?
For clarification I will provide a summary of each along with a video showcasing it.
Artificial Charisma: Being more charismatic then you naturally are, involves studying the rhetorical and dialectic arts, seeking advantages provided by the environment and/or audience, and preparing ahead of time.
Example video (Mark Zuckerberg speaking Mandarin).
Natural Charisma: Charisma that is innate, often marked by the user's ability to improvise and as they say "fly by the seat of my pants", often without any apparent effort or preparation.
Example video (2016 republican debate, aka Trump abuses rhinos for sport).
In my response, I point out that there is indeed a big difference between the two, but artificial charisma CAN eventually substitute for the real thing, through time and practice, although it will never be a perfect substitute for the natural kind. I liken it to the difference between a naturally gifted athlete, e.g. Roger Federer, and one who is simply relentless and remorseless in his training and dedication to the game, e.g. Novak Djokovic. The former will always be more talented than the latter - but the latter has more titles and more records to his name now.

Happy 2024, brothers and sisters! May the peace and blessings of Our Lord Jesus Christ be with you this year. The podcast that follows is, admittedly, a couple of weeks late - I originally intended to record it on New Year's Day, but that didn't happen, due to family commitments and other things. Nonetheless, here we are with the relevant podcast to kick off 2024.
The first thing to say is, New Year's day marked - no joke - ELEVEN YEARS since I started doing this shitposting thing. That is not an exaggeration. The original Didact's Reach Blogger site launched on Jan 1, 2013. That evolved eventually into the current Didactic Mind site, podcast, and Telegram channel. So we are now into the twelfth year of this whole... journey, if you want to call it that.
Most blogs and sites do not last more than 11 weeks, never mind 11 years. As I point out here, I do not do this for anyone other than myself - I literally do not care what most people think about my writing - but it is nonetheless rather rewarding to learn that other people get value from what I do, and appreciate the output.
So, as always, thank you very much for your continued patronage, site visits, comments, and community participation. If you want to engage more with the content, then be sure to join the Didactic Mind Telegram channel, which is quite a lot of fun for pretty much everyone involved. It is a small, but highly lively, community that regularly engages in hilarious banter and cross-posting of ideas. And Telegram is simply a great platform that combines the best features of Twitter, WhatsApp, and a long-form site, while offering other features that are far better than any of its competitors.
As usual, I will provide analytics for my site and podcast here, so you can get an idea of how this site stacks up against everyone else (hint: not great, but that's fine).
Total pageviews of 153K in 2023, which is a 41% decrease against 2022's 260K, and is unsurprising given the much lower rate of poasting; Total of 31,602 unique visitors across the site, which is down about 27% relative to 2022's 43.6K, and again, for the same reasons; Total of 440 comments across 255 posts, which is a decrease of 39% and 16%, respectively; Posts averaged 1,086 words each, making them significantly shorter than what we saw in 2022;The geographic distribution of the site's readership continues to be highly global, but predominantly US-centric:
The Didactic Mind podcast also had a decent, though not great, year - due largely to much lower frequency of recording:
2,623 total downloads, down 26.2% against 2022, with over 8,500 total downloads all-time; A more or less steady subscriber base of about 126 Telegram members of the Didactic Mind channel;All in all, a year of struggles, at least in some ways, and I go over some of these in the podcast. I also discuss what 2024 might hold for us, and how we can prepare for what promises to be a very challenging year ahead.

Happy Christmas to you all, my dear brothers and friends! May the peace and blessings of the Lord be upon you and your families on this most wonderful and sacred of days. Today's podcast is all about explaining "the reason for the season", as it were - a phrase I rather dislike, so I try to avoid using it, but it applies nonetheless. In this podcast, I discuss why Christmas is so important, and how the timeless story of the tiny infant born into a manger has so much meaning. I talk about how the person of Jesus is rapidly destroying the heresy of Izzlam, how the power of the Holy Spirit transforms lives and builds men up, and how we can all take inspiration from the greatest story ever told.

Friends, the time has come for another Ask Didact Anything brain-dump. This instalment addresses a wide range of reader questions, starting with a fascinating article sent to me by a reader, and continuing on through various points of interest raised by members of my Telegram channel. (Join for the news feed - stay for the bantz.)
The list of questions is as follows:
LRFotS AuntRat asks for my thoughts on an excellent article by The Z-Man on the horrors of the new kind of mechanised warfare we see in Banderastan;Ambergris asks me to play a kind of "Desert Island Discs" with respect to the bands I would tolerate listening to for the rest of my life;Our native Kraut, MK, asks for my opinion on the best places to live with industrialised First-World environments, where a young buck can start a family - Germanic-speaking areas preferred, of course;LRFotS Kapios - a veteran from the very earliest days of the old Didact's Reach Blogspot site - asks how I might consider setting up a content-creation business online with a commercial partner;The hilarious SupremeCannon - he of the hysterical "Tyroneiums" moniker - asks a serious question about which out of the FUSA, the EUSSR, the UK, or China, will collapse first from colossal financial phuckwittery;SupremeCannon again with another question about how Civil War 2.0 will unfold in the FUSA, and whether 2024 will be the year in which it will happen;Many thanks to all of my channel members and subscribers for their most excellent questions. I hope I have answered them thoroughly and thoughtfully, and welcome your comments both here and on Telegram.

The Didactic Mind podcast is finally BACK with a new episode! This one is all about the importance of debt forgiveness, from both a moral and economic perspective, as it is a necessary (but not sufficient) condition for ensuring investment in genuinely productive sectors of the national economy. I go over a number of topics here today, starting with Scripture, going through fake economic statistics and the work of heretic economists like Dr. Fadi Lama and Dr. Michael Hudson and some of the Austrian economists. I then discuss how debt is crushing youngsters in the FUSA, with similar effects felt in many Western nations. And I talk about how social engineering experiments in Russia's Far East offer solutions to some of the most pressing demographic problems we see today.
This is one of those podcasts that weaves together lots of different ideas into something that is (hopefully) a cohesive whole, and I would be intrigued to get the audience's thoughts, so be sure to like, comment, share, and subscribe.

This one originated from a question sent to me by LRFotS MK, who is also a Telegram channel subscriber, about a program done on The Duran with Alex from Reporterfy. The program in question was a most excellent Q&A session between the THREE Alexes - they are multiplying like rabbits, I swear - about the coming financial apocalypse. The third Alex raised a lot of excellent points - indeed, I agree with basically everything he said - but he skimmed over quite a lot of details, and obfuscated others.
So, MK reached out to me to ask for my own point of view and explanations as to the financial chicanery going on right now. I give it my best shot here, in which I apply my own expertise and experience in derivatives pricing, economics, financial services, energy, risk management, and other fields, and I welcome follow-up questions from this episode.

Here we are, back with another Domain Query episode. This one is perhaps the most complex and demanding topic ever, because it touches on so many different things. As with the previous episode, this comes via a query from LRFotS Randale6, who asked - well, ranted, really - about a whole bunch of different things:
Breaking with my established pattern of geopolitical queries I present something that may be haunting the majority of the readership. Wife hunting post-plandemic. Simply put many of us Western escapees understand two things. First we must get out of the West and never return, secondly we must find wives abroad (western women at this point can only be made serviceable by slavery, and I mean this literally). The plandemic has complicated this matter enormously thanks to genocide in a syringe. South-East Asia for example may be completely wrecked if the jab numbers concerning it are accurate. Given that this was the number 1 place for westerners wife hunting safaris this means two things, either we have to abandon the region entirely or we have to have someway of reliably separating the wheat from the chaff. I have no clue about how to do the latter efficiently (and reliably, as the truth comes to light women will start lying...as usual). As for the second the problem is the same with a twist, how do we accurately sort through the noise of the statistics? All I can reliably make out from the mainstream headlines is the following. Eastern Europe (we will include Russia in this grouping) and Africa in general seem to be the least vaxxed populations worldwide. Meanwhile the west (outside of the USA, the benefits of a third of our population being conspiracy theorists) is fucked, the middle east proper (excluding North Africa) is very middle of the road as a whole, South America is aping North America to it's detriment, and Central Asia is also middle of the road. All of this is further muddled by two things, questionable statistics from questionable sources (let us hope that they are deliberately cherry picking their data to inflate things), and the (not)vaccines administered. If I were a betting man I would wager that the Chinese and Russian vaccines are less harmful than their western equivalents. This is admittedly a low bar to beat, the aforementioned countries besting it simply by not being a bunch of depopulationists dredged from the asshole of Satan. This leaves us in one final pickle, the matter of the (new) hunting grounds. Eastern Europe while not new to us Americans isn't a good choice from what I've seen here in America. This is admittedly based on a sample size of one but it wasn't good, the woman is literally named Natasha (I forget if she is Russian or Ukrainian) and upon receiving her green card promptly divorced her rube and proceeded to shack up with a 20 year old arab boytoy. The next (most)viable area would be the caucuses countries of Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia. This region is so remote and so obscure that it's hard to gauge it, all I can surmise is that these countries are a better choice then the others I will list here. Central Asia suffers from the same problem as the caucuses, there just isn't enough expat experience of the region online to make anything remotely resembling an assessment of the landscape. Next up is...the middle east. Needless to say I do not fancy this option one bit given my secular(ish) instincts (at this point I ain't sure about the existence of god(s), the existence of devils and demons on the other hand...I can believe that). For someone religious this could prove to be a more profitable expedition, let's not pretend that Arab Christians (particularly the Palestinian and Egyptian varieties) like living under the Jewish and Muslim boot, respectively. Finally we arrive at Africa, for the record I will note the following. I will only consider North Africa here, having seen the barbarism and evil that is inherent to negro race here in North America I will never stain my bloodline with their filth. With that out of the way onto the question of North Africa. North Africa strikes me as being a less extreme version of the middle-east, this trend truly picking up steam anywhere west of Libya (may the entire Clinton family burn in hell). Beyond this general trend of lessening craziness the farther from Mecca you go I don't have much more to say concerning the region (the information problems I mentioned concerning Central Asia seem to apply to this region as well). I know this one is going to be a bitch didact, this is probably the hardest domain query I have ever asked of you. I simply do not have both the first hand experience and the mathematical background to sort out the true from the false (beyond assuming that the mainstream statistics have been fudged) with regards to this problem.Well, to be honest, I'm not even sure exactly where to start with this one, but I gave it the old college try, as it were, and here is the result. My basic answer to these questions is: you are not alone. There are more of us purebloods than most people realise, and it is only by striking out and taking risks to find them, that one will realise we are rapidly becoming the MAJORITY in the West, not the minority.Protect Yourself From Big TechI make some pretty incendiary statements in this podcast, and in most of my podcasts.

Hail, brothers! The Domain Query series is finally back, with an all-new episode, thanks to LRFotS Randale6, who wrote in with a long two-part question. The questions relate to my recent trip to Russia, and everything that I have seen and learned before and since. Here is what he asked - edited somewhat, due to my Grammar Nazi tendencies:
The first question is pertinent to your recent vacation to Russia, have the Russians finally accepted and (we can hope) embraced the reality that they are Russian, not European, and not Asian? I do not mean this in the cruel sense of deriding the Russians as a barbaric race, rather I think of them as being the far eastern analogue to Texas...just bigger, colder, and to be blunt possessed of questionable cuisine (all hail the two truly homegrown American cuisines, Cajun and Tex-Mex).
Over here in the USA Texas has never been ashamed of being Texas, it readily accepts the fact that it is its own little (alright, big) reality that doesn't quite play by the rules as the American South, Southwest, and Appalachia know them. But Russian history doesn't play out that way, it's never a good sign when your nobility can speak better French than Russian...and you keep doing it despite the frogs shitting on you whenever they see you (ditto for the rest of western Europe with regards to Russia).
The second question relates to China. Simply put the Chinese have done something that they have never done since before the birth of Christ, that something being the alteration of their government. From the time of the first Emperor to the nomadic conquerors from over the wall the Chinese governmental model has stood firm, the only changes to it essentially being window dressing.
Those days are now gone, in the place of the old dynasties stands the CCP (which should be renamed the Fascist Chinese Party if we are honest). The CCP has a problem, a threat that it cannot answer like the old dynasties did. That thorn in their side being the question of legitimacy.
In the two millennia of dynastic rule all an Emperor had to do to remain legitimate was to keep China prosperous and stable. So long as he could do this the Emperor was legitimate, regardless of whatever bullshit his predecessors had cooked up.
However, the CCP cannot partake of this Mandate of Heaven like the dynasties did. The CCP is built around ideology, not an Emperor. Just because Deng took over from Mao does not mean the former can abjure the latter as having lost the mandate of heaven, the ideological tenets of the CCP being an absolute commandments that cannot be challenged (formally) lest the foundations of the entire party crumble.
Simply put the CCP cannot come to terms with the fact that are no longer Communist, they are Fascists, hence such euphemisms as "Communism with Chinese Characteristics". What this does is force the party to live in a state of cognitive (and political) dissonance, a damaging state for both the individual and the party itself.
With that in mind do you think that the CCP can overcome this internal contradiction?
I answer these questions at length in the podcast. Basically, the answer to the first question is: YES, the Russians have rediscovered their ancient love of their own people, and their own deeply ingrained sense of national pride.
The answer to the second is more complex, and there are a few misconceptions about the CPC that I need to clear up first. Essentially, the CPC faces a number of serious problems in China, and is working to address them by way of your typical engineering mindset - build, baby, build! This is not necessarily a sensible solution, because the problems confronting the CPC are quite severe structural ones, which they have failed to address for many years. But they are nowhere near as severe as what faces the West, and I believe the CPC enjoys far greater popular support than most Western commentators realise.

This episode of Didactic Mind is all about the misguided and very foolish return of Stalinism as an in-vogue political and social philosophy. This all came about because of the recent appearance by one Jackson Hinkle on Piers Morgan's show (Lord, have mercy, because that guy, right there, deserves a proper slapping), in which Jackson did utterly humiliate both Piers and his guest, Konstantin Kisin. But then, Jackson stated openly that he is a Stalinist, and believes in returning to Stalinist policies. This got me rather annoyed, because this is a trend I am seeing a lot of late on the channels I watch.
Therefore, in this episode, I explain why Stalinism is such a terrible idea, and where it actually led over time - to starvation, backwardness, and eventual economic collapse. Stalin's economic model is not one for the rest of us to follow - it leads to very, very bad places, and its actual record in action is truly terrible. Just because neoliberal policies are failing completely, that does not mean we should trade in one set of huge failures for another.
Reading ListI reference a fair few books and works in this episode. Here is a partial list:

The Didactic Mind podcast is FINALLY back, after many months off due to... well, laziness, really. This episode is all about geopolitics, and discusses the extreme and fatal errors of judgement made by the GloboHomoPaedoPharisatanist elites that have led the West from disaster to catastrophe. They fundamentally miscalculated about the nature of the enemy they sought to make out of Russia, and they also completely misunderstood themselves. The result is what we see today - a broken, beaten West that nonetheless refuses to give up on its idiotic quest to defeat an industrial and energy superpower.
The Banderastan War is but the latest manifestation of this incompetence and reckless stupidity - and it will only end once the West itself shatters, which may be sooner than any of us would like to admit.

The Domain Query series is finally back, with a new instalment, thanks to LRFotS Randale6. He had an unusual and rather interesting question for me, related to gaming, which I answered at some length here. The question goes as follows:
Departing from our usual fare I have one question: have we reached "good enough graphics" for gaming? What I mean by this question is have we reached the point in gaming where making your game the most graphically advanced (and ram chugging) wunderwaffen is even necessary to attract gamers?
For what I would consider the "base" where I started to see this occur in my mind I am bringing up a mass effect 3 (2012 release date) gameplay video. I never played any halo games but from research halo 4 was release in the same year as mass effect 3, so it should make a good comparison to mass effect 3 (I don't believe you have played any mass effect games from what I can recollect).
Here is the gameplay video our boy mentioned.
It is a rather good question. In my personal view, graphics have plateaued - they haven't peaked yet, but they aren't really improving at the speed and levels that would tempt people to buy those games en masse. I think gaming will move back toward the things that make people actually fork out cash, by going back to the basics, because the obsession with having the most whiz-bang wowser graphics has resulted in serious deterioration of core gameplay mechanics, story, and character.
Of course, my views on gaming are positively archaic by modern standards, so I invite anyone who thinks differently, to comment below. Have at it, lads.

Gentlemen! We just concluded another round of Ask Didact Anything Day on my Telegram channel, which is your chance as a member of the community (such as it is) to ask questions to yer very 'eavy, very 'umble Warrior-Servant. We got a really good battery of questions in for today's podcast, and I was very pleased to take some time to answer them all:
Dan: Which European country is in the worst shape socially and economically? And which would you expect to see collapse first?SupremeCannon: Progozhin said there were other PMC's operating alongside Wagner. (Gazprom has a PMC?! Shoigu has a PMC?!) Is Russia really that freewheeling, militarily speaking?WB: Can I borrow a dollar?AK: When people are willingly rushing towards their demise and moral decay is this a sign of the coming dark ages? To clarify further: I understand that we had difficult times in the past because people were misinformed, but is this the time that St. Anthony prophesized? The masses are not just misinformed. They truly convinced themselves that modern lunatic and satanic rules/practices coming from the elites, are good for them.GW: Is the current round of US bank failures the beginning of the end of the US financial system, or will they be able to kick the can down the road a few more years?Randale6: As I have been browsing the various forums available for international teachers I have noticed that certain countries and areas as being deemed "hardship" locations. Said locales are easier to get jobs at as they get less applicants and thus have to be a bit more open-minded. One of the areas mentioned is Central Asia (e.g Mongolia and all the stans) and I personally feel drawn to the old silk road. Do you have any experience of the Central Asian locales at all?Dan: I see the Kombat Kats as well as plenty of dogs in your posts. Are you a cat or dog person and why?I have to confess that I missed out on one question - which was kind of stupid, because it was literally the first one in the list, and somehow I managed to skip over it entirely. I will address that one specifically in a voice message on my Telegram channel. Here's the question:
MK: Are there good Russian history media in English or do I have to get off my lazy butt and actually learn Russian?
Sorry, bro - will get back to you about this.
For everyone else - here is the podcast.

Hail brothers and sisters - CHRIST IS RISEN! On this very special Easter Sunday podcast, I discuss the nether realm by weaving together the views of various Catholic exorcists (for whom I have tremendous respect), the late, great, and sorely missed Dr. Michael Heiser's work, and the elements of Scripture which pertain directly to the realities of that realm. I discuss how daemons are increasingly telling exorcists that they feel their time is coming, that something very BIG is on the way, and I talk about how God permits and uses their activities to help us purify ourselves, turn away from sin, and glorify Him through our own sanctification. I talk about the ways in which the worst excesses of Western civilisation are really a form of daemon-worship, and how the gods of many cultures are in fact daemonic entities in disguise. Finally, I talk about how the Resurrection is our ultimate bulwark against evil, for it fulfils God's promise to us and redeems us through the sacred blood of Christ our Lord.
There is a LOT packed into this episode, and you might have some questions coming off it, so be sure to reach out via the comments or direct emails if you wish - I might do a follow-up if there is sufficient demand.
Protect Yourself From Big TechI make some pretty incendiary statements in this podcast, and in most of my podcasts. I can only do so because I take steps to protect myself from the Big Tech companies, and preserve my identity. You need to do the same – this is no longer optional, because if you don’t, the gatekeepers WILL come for your head.

The main Didactic Mind podcast is now back - two episodes in two weeks, which is something to celebrate, given how infrequent the podcasts have been of late. (Yes, I know - my fault entirely, mea culpa, etc. etc.) This week's episode is all about the unfolding multipolar world. I talk about some key economic indicators and what they mean for the Western economies. I discuss how American policies have forced countries around the world to de-dollarise - but, as I point out, this does NOT mean the USD will eventually be replaced outright by the RMB, simply because the Chinese yuan does not have enough "float" to do so, and because the Chinese have no desire whatsoever to be the world's reserve trading platform.
I go on to draw parallels between what we have seen in the past, with the collapse of empires, specifically the (western) Roman empire, and the current very obvious decline of the American empire. Then, I move on to point out what the world will look like, as a multipolar one based on regional trading blocs that work with each other, rather than constantly fighting wars against each other, instigated by the American Deep State. The podcast finishes with a reference to the Watchers and the spiritual war in which we find ourselves, with more to come in next week's Easter Sunday podcast.

Comes a query from reader Ned, who asked a question that I should have answered more directly in my previous podcast. This one is all about whether or not the neoclowns currently driving the Western world over a cliff at roughly the speed of sound, have any capacity or inclination to back off and reconsider their literally suicidal strategery:
Do you think the global banking crisis will escalate the eastern European war, or do you think it will cause western neocons to pause and retreat?
The short answer is:
Not only NO, but F**K NO!!!
The somewhat longer answer is that, if you look at where neoclowns come from, who they are, what they have studied, and how they think, then you will quickly realise they have zero capacity for self-reflection, learning, and admitting mistakes. As a result, they are utterly incapable of backing off a failing strategy. Therefore, the global banking crisis will result in a redoubling of their efforts to destroy Russia through force of arms.
And it will fail - along with the Western banking system.
Many thanks to Ned for the question - feel free to ask any follow-ups as you see fit.
