Continuing in this ongoing chapter of the Warhorse audio-novel-podcast-expermient devoted to the practicalities, exigencies, and contingencies orbiting the broad and shifting topic of The Collapse, we pick up with gear in the first hour--specifically, Hill People Gear Kit Bags, holsters and Back Up Guns. Detours and digressions include: commentary on the potential, but fanciful, proposition that traditional Japanese clothing is just simply superior to Western if we consider the well-being of the individual, the useful narrative innovations of Roberto Bolano (novel 2666 in particular), and the evolving utility of the tactical bicycle.
We serve up a might addition to the exercises filed under the broad aegis of The Criminal of Purpose. The Guerrilla begins to edge his way into the conversation! The metaphysical potentialities of walking get concretized treatment. The power of the pruning shears shines through. We drop some substantial insights into E&E from the skilled tracker's POV.
In the subscriber's segment we swing high and low touching on the deep torment of The Collapse, as well as the utilitarian approach we must begin to adopt regarding the various step-wise downward phases of this experience. LaFond shows up to describe The What-If game. A miserable visit from characters out of McCarthy's The Road. The advantageous power of avoidance, creating and maintaining distance. Anxiety. Minor digressions into the twisted nature of modern publishing. Sayings of the modern Orthodox Fathers.
