Ep. 129 - DEAR DIRTY DUBLIN

What if we held hands in the Akasic Record?

Topics in this episode include too much information about the Freemasons, entering the Promised Land, Daniel O'Connell's mass meeting at Mullaghmast, political radicalism, the Akasic Record, Stephen's magic powers, rebutting John F. Taylor, Parnell's parliamentary finesse, argumentum ad pasiones, leaning into your own bias, the origin of the phrase "Dear Dirty Dublin," duplicitous newsies, disappointment for J.J. O'Molloy, Odysseus rebuffed by Aeolus, and Stephen girds his loins for creative outburst.
