I think Poe had a mission to tell us what it's all about. To answer some of the great questions of life.
One life is worth the universe. Poe was able to go right into the very depth of life and to demonstrate this.
My background is basically scientific math. My Dad was a physicist, so I have it in my blood somewhere. Scientific method is very important to me. I think anything that contradicts it is probably not true.
It is important to me that what Poe has to say gets across to people. I want to give people the feeling that I get from all this. I think that we are succeeding. The feedback is very warm.
I love to play for audiences that are simply made of people rather than so-called special people.
I figure I basically am a ghost. I think we all are.
I do want to write about socialculturalhistorical context. I'm interested in relationships, in character, but within a specific social context. Which is kind of a political thing, I admit that. But it's what I'm interested in, and it's how I believe human behavior is legible.
My favorite part of podcasting is running my mouth for an hour. The only time I dont like it is when Im off. Then that hour feels like a day and a half.
Consciously cultivate the ordinary.
Even our pets can become idols.
