I recap a couple topics from episode 32, talk about The Walking Dead Season 7 Episode 1, then talk about the main topic of progress in regards to how far we've come, how far we may still need to go, and how often painstakingly slow it is at both a personal and public level. Timeline of topics discussed: 00:00:00 to 00:24:54 Recapping the prison system & layoffs 00:24:55 to 00:41:17 The Walking Dead Season 7 Episode 1 + the power & fearlessness of art 00:48:13 Progress: Human evolution & civilization 00:54:38 Progress: Slavery in the U.S. 01:07:08 Progress: Same-sex Marriage in the U.S. 01:17:37 Progress: Womens' Rights in the U.S.

I don't get to the topics of Fatherhood, Layoffs & Prisons as promised, so they will be discussed in the next episode. I discuss the movie The Babadook in regards to managing our own demons, delve into people who are vain and some reasons why, while touching on how we are often quick to judge.  Official podcast of the Ephemeral Rift YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/EphemeralRift

Each one of us is an ocean. We are more complex than the roles we are placed in, more than just a worker, a student, a teacher, a father, a daughter, a prisoner. And we ourselves may not even know the potentially fathomless depths of our own existence. I talk about how complex and deep people are, and how we should try to remain as open-minded and non-judgmental as possible. So that we can all be more understanding and accepting of one another, and so that we can all learn more about one another, ourselves and this crazy world we live in.

The podcast is back and in this episode we keep it mostly lighthearted as I get back in the saddle with talk about movies, a little music chat, some philosophy sprinkled in here and there, some channel news and upcoming podcast topics.

Dedicated to those who are struggling with their identity, finding themselves, and frustrated with all the voices in their head and people in their lives from friends and parents to teachers and leaders telling them what to say or do, how to act, behave, etc., etc. I share my thoughts, knowledge, experience and views on why I think people should think for themselves and question everyone and everything in order to work towards living as free a life as possible, especially in regard to one's mental health.
