Summary

Guest speakers: Lorenzo Hagerty & Chris Hedges PROGRAM NOTES: [NOTE: All quotations are by Chris Hedges.] “I think when we speak today about American values what we're really speaking about are corporate-instilled values.” “When you spend over a decade brutalizing people, people become brutal.” “You can't use the word 'liberty' when your government watches you 24 hours a day. That's the relationship of a master and a slave.” “There is no difference between a night raid in Oakland and a night raid in Falluja . . . none!” Download MP3 PCs – Right click, select option Macs – Ctrl-Click, select option Hedges v.

This is Lorenzo and I'm your host here in the psychedelic salon.

And yes, in my last podcast, I said that in just a couple of days, I'd be out with a few comments about what Terrence McKenna had just said regarding the task before us.

And, yes, it has now been a whole week since then. But you see, well, I discovered

0:40.8

that I had a lot more to say than I first thought. So it's taken me a little while longer to put

this podcast together. Now, if you are new here to us in the salon, you should know that today's

program isn't a normal one for us.

Our longtime listeners already know that one of my main motivations for doing these podcasts is to pass along a few of my thoughts and stories to my grandchildren.

But you see, right now they're all too young to even care about them, let alone understand them.

1:09.9

So hopefully you'll all consider yourselves now my mature grandchildren

1:37.7

and find my stories at least interesting, if not always helpful.

1:42.8

Also, I should say up front here that if right now you are in college or college-bound,

1:48.9

then there are some things in this podcast that could very well be important to your

1:53.3

understanding of where you are right now, at least in regards to your life path, your destiny.
