Memory is one of the most potent tools man uses in his survival.

Here are three questions.

How did you survive that last predator's attack? How did you find enough money to make rent the last time something like this happened? What did you do for lunch this time last year?

Honestly, though, only two of these three are probably easy for you to answer. You probably don't remember the events from exactly a year ago.

But what if you could?

In the first of hopefully many contributions, Cassock gives background, theory, and practice on how an individual could make it a possibility. By coupling memory with imagination, he explains how you can make memorization on demand, and therefore into an even more potent and user-friendly tool.

This week's segment comes from that loveliest of flowers, The Rose.

Our own reality doesn't come spontaneously from nowhere. It is, instead, a combination of our own imaginative creation and reactive creation to others around us. As we travel though this cosmically large manic depression we call life, we hit beautiful high and the darkest of lows... how we deal with them determines what reverberations are sent through the tangled and delicately balanced web in which we exist, and whether they pull others up with us or drag them down to us.

Don't miss this show, folks, or you just might entangle others in a web of your making.

In Barroom Hero’s last installment, he talked about stories.  Stories, stories, stories.  He seems to think that's all our personality's made of.

Now, as promised, he delivers a short audio essay on symbols and why they’re so damned powerful.  Why they pull us every which way even if we don’t realize it or want them to.

If you enjoyed the first part of Stories, don’t miss this, the second installment.

Dearest Listeners:

Our apologies for the tardiness of your receipt of this, the 9^th installment of Mayhem Radio (dear fucking god, i can't believe i've made it this far with my liver in tact). It was due to unforeseen circumstances involving several ladies of the night (hookers), a casket (to be honest, just the body we found in the casket), a tortoise, a hare, and a hat (the casket occupant's, not my own). Respectfully, we submit this short segment to you, our fans, and hope that it meets your discerning tastes and expectations of MRPP.

Two score and about twelve weeks ago, we broadcasted this week's segment. Because the internet occasionally, but by no means often, eats things you feed to it, MRPP brings Metamicrophone to you again.

Heavy on pros for discourse and discussion, and light on cons. But we make no claims otherwise. This is an argument FOR discourse, not a report on it.

So listen. Enjoy. Spread it.

Think for yourself. Question Authority.
