Episode 9 - Gaming & Meddling
You'll have tons to digest and talk about after listening to this episode!
MCREC9 marks Dane's first foray into sharing Video Games he thinks even the most intellectual listeners would enjoy, including a tease for the new SciFi game "Death Stranding" and a recommendation for a grand strategy game.
He also reads from LBJ's Chief of Staff, W. Marvin Watson, about how Russia (as the Soviet Union) meddled in American democracy during the Johnson Presidency. There's a rambling riff about homelessness in NYC that he hopes you'll forgive him for by time you hear him sing "The Song of the Day to Check Out," which is about the decline of modern music artistry itself!
Plus, Dane's story "Holy Crisis" has arrived in people's mail, and the reviews are coming In hot!
This episode features Political Science Reflections in lieu of Philosophy Reflections as part of the "Smart People Read" segment, a new untitled segment on Video Games, a "Song of the Day to Check Out," and so much in between!
