0:00.0	Hi, my name is Chris Brennan, and this is episode 250 of The Astrology Podcast.
0:05.0	I'm recording this on Sunday, April 19, 2020, starting at exactly 730 PM in Denver, Colorado.
0:12.0	So this is a two-part episode. 730 PM in Denver, Colorado.
0:13.0	So this is a two-part episode.
0:15.2	In the first part of the episode
0:17.6	is going to be a recording of a lecture
0:20.6	that a friend of mine gave back in 2011 an astrologer named Alan White and he actually
0:27.7	presented this lecture. It was an introduction to Hellenistic astrology lecture that he'd been giving for over a decade at that point that had been somewhat influential and
0:38.0	Alan passed away after a long illness with cancer in August of 2011, but several months before he died, I went out to visit him and stayed with him for a few days and talked about his life and sort of documented his life story and reflected on things and I asked him to record a version of this lecture for me, which he'd given, I'd seen him give a few times in the past and which had been notable for reasons that I'll explain later.
1:12.0	So he ended up recording the lecture for me at that
1:16.1	point and I've been meaning to release it for a long time now. So the first half of
1:22.2	this episode, the first hour and a half is basically just a recording of his presentation of this flip chart lecture on an introduction to Hellenistic astrology, and then the second part of the episode for about an hour after that is an audio
1:35.1	recording of an interview that I did with Alan back around 2010 on my old
1:41.1	podcast called Traditional Astrology Radio and it was actually the first
1:46.4	interview that I ever actually did with somebody on a podcast so it's kind of
1:50.4	notable for that reason and I wanted to re-release it as part of the
1:53.9	astrology podcast series in order to have it as an official part of this
1:58.1	archive and sort of document some of Alan's life and work and thought as part of the astrology podcast.
2:06.0	Since that other podcast traditional astrology radio I stopped doing years ago back in 2012
2:12.0	and isn't really going to stick around for a long time.
2:17.4	All right, so back to my outline.
2:21.1	So Alan was 69 years old when he passed away in 2011 after a long battle with cancer.
