I\u2019m launching a second podcast. It\u2019s called the Alien Observer.<\/p>\n

I still hope to bring Love & Hope back for a second season, but the things I have to talk about right now are very different from the concept I started for that show in January. This show might be more eclectic, because it\u2019s more broadly about my observations of the world.<\/p>\n

The Alien Observer is intended to give me a place to share audio about whatever\u2019s on my mind at a given moment. A couple of times recently \u2014 here<\/a> and here<\/a> \u2014 I\u2019ve recorded audio and just stuck it on here, so launching this will give me a place to share those sorts of things more broadly.<\/p>\n

You might notice that the photo for the artwork was something I shot a couple of months ago and used here with an article. I couldn\u2019t shoot a new photo right now, because since we\u2019re still in the middle of an economic shutdown, my hair looks as though it\u2019s gone back in time a few decades.<\/p>\n

For now, this show is not going to be on any regular schedule. I\u2019ll let you know when the first episode is ready to share.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, go listen to my two recent audio posts if you\u2019ve missed them. One is about the psychological necessity — for me, anyway — of building something new right<\/a> now instead of waiting for a solution from governments. The other is about why it matters which ideas rule your world<\/a> — and why I’m sick of having to dumb down my own ideas to have a chance of being heard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
