I doubt it. Or if some of them do, they dishonestly hide it – which might be even worse. But we simply cannot trust any person who pretends to know everything and to always be right. That is the perspective of someone who will be blind to incoming information that could uplift and expand, clarify their models of reality. Ironically, the loudest and…

Here are a dozen questions I would LOVE to hear Irish politicians asked. Alas it seems one of the requirements of being among those who get to ask the questions is that you don’t go too close to the core things we need to just say plainly in the faces of those so out of whack. If we can ask these simple but hilariously outrageous questions to our ‘…

Do you do drugs? Don’t answer that! I’ll respect your privacy. And which drugs anyway? Alcohol? Caffeine? Sugar? These all affect the mind enough to be properly called drugs – but they are the drugs modern industrial civilisation endorses, because they amplify its values of productivity, orderliness, political centralisation, cultural conformity an…

Vegans, vegetarians, pescatarians, omnivores and carnivores unite! Let us discuss honestly the controversial question of what we should be eating. I offer my views on the pros and cons of each of these diets, in terms of optimising health and ecological flourishing while minimising the suffering of sentient beings. The core theme is that there are …

Health is the foundation upon which all else in our lives is built. All our dreams and schemes require it and blossom in direct proportion to the vitality of our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual wellness. This episode provides countless practical tips about what is and isn’t in our interests if we want to thrive on all levels. I am not an …

History isn’t over yet. It is not just the past but also the present and the future; the greatest story ever told – ever imaginable – as it is the sum and whole of all stories ever to be. This episode gives a brief (ahem) overview of world history, with a particular focus on Europe and the near East; vital knowledge for anyone who wants to know whe…

Awakening is the single most important thing in your life. Truly! For it is to experience the mindblowing lucidity of pure awareness without thinking – which is actually who you are. It goes by many names, can be understood in many ways, and has formed the core of all major religions throughout history, but the essential point to understand is that…

We in the so-called developed world spend so many years in school and yet in adulthood so often wonder why we were never taught fundamental skills and knowledge that could save us much heartache, blood, sweat and tears; the ignored doors to a better life missed. Much of this lost education is simple, practical and even enjoyable, but revolutionary …

Let’s give it up for Mother Nature! What a gal. She gives us literally everything we have and asks nothing in return – don’t say she doesn’t speak, you’re just not listening! Or maybe you are. Maybe you too are aware just how plentiful are the gifts and opportunities dangled before us like lush fruits of the jungle as we spin through space at stunn…

Tune in as I psychically connect with my twin brother Mark via various hilarious and generally flamboyant esoteric magical practices long ago encoded into our DNA and higher-dimensional astral skeletons. We discuss truth-seeking and the joys of seeing life as a journey of spiritual education; also the ways in which black magic aspersions such as 'c…

In this episode we look at what 'free speech' is and why it is so important. The freedom to say what one wishes (so long as it doesn't violate the non-aggression principle) is the most fundamental of human rights, because it is the mechanism by which all rights are decided. This most precious power is not only enjoyable and useful for collective pr…

In this episode I talk about why 'being yourself' is a really good idea! More than a cliché, this is timeless wisdom that will elevate one's existence if taken sillily (or seriously). I discuss the various levels and meanings of 'being yourself' and how I think we can live more joyfully and authentically, connecting with ourselves and others by dro…

One small step for me, a giant leap for hyperbole! This is my first ever podcast episode and I talk about my reasons for starting this project - and why YOU too could (maybe even should) lean into that glowing golden dream floating about elusively in the back of your mind - or if you don't have a dream, then just to take some humble step toward a l…

There are 80 million people worldwide who claim some Irish descent, with 3 million being Irish-born emigrants, their children and grandchildren. This group of 3 million are legally recognised Irish citizens and tend to share quite closely the sociocultural norms of Ireland. The majority of these people also left Ireland with great reluctance due to…

It’s human nature to look forward and try to master the future, to better our lives. But it is crucial that we balance this with a primary focus on the Now, and in particular on enjoying this present moment as full and enough; to strive ultimately only to be a good person today and let tomorrow be the duty of tomorrow’s self. We think ahead and act…

We tend to get what we anticipate. Thus it is essential that we devote our hearts to a faith that Love will triumph over illusion, fear, separation, conflict and evil. We need not have evidence of this destiny – in fact that’s what makes it faith in love and something specially precious in the human condition – but merely the understanding that whe…

Notice the exclamation marks. This is extremely serious. As serious as it gets. You may or may not have noticed, powerful leaders in the USA and Europe are increasingly beating the drums of war against Russia. This would very likely mean nuclear war, as Russia’s arsenal is greater than America’s and they would not be able to compete in a traditiona…

Dear friends and strangers, I am running for election to Dáil Éireann, and need your help. Freedom, peace and truth are all under increasingly violent assault by those claiming to protect them, and I believe in my bones that I have the character, skills, knowledge, and consciousness to defend them – if enough people like yourself choose to believe …

Robert F. Kennedy Jr is one of the three major contenders in the US presidential election in November, and I urge you to watch him speak for two minutes and if you are won over (as I am sure 90% of people will be) then reach out to each and every American you know or happen to meet, and ask if they will vote for RFK. This may at times be awkward, b…

Friends! I am running in the local elections on June 7th to win a seat for Howth/Malahide on Fingal County Council. If you live in the area, or you know people who live in the area, please share this video and help me get voted in! I am a person who strives for excellence, integrity and consciousness in all things, so if elected I will devote mysel…

Migration is a normal part of plant, fungi, animal and human existence; however, in the human world, the flow of large populations between societies is often wrought with peril for one or the other group – or both. Thus it is extremely important that a calm, loving but clear-headed analysis is sought on how to balance immigration with native rights…

Ireland is beautiful! The grass is always greener and so Australia may seem like the wise move if you are a young Irish person looking around at the mess our government has got us into and the many pressures and limitations one must deal with on the Emerald Isle. However, this island and this nation are precious beyond imagining and in this episode…

Last episode we got into the nature of the sevenfold awakening I am advocating for Éire and by extension for the whole planet; essentially, activating human potential in certain vital aspects which have the beautiful potential to transform the world for the better, one person at a time, starting with oneself. Today I read through the ‘Principles of…

Gaelic Awakening is a new political party contesting the upcoming election in Ireland; but more importantly it is a cultural movement seeking and embodying the realisation of Irish potential in a sevenfold awakening: spiritual, emotional, intellectual, physical, political, economic, and cultural. Curious about what this all means and whether you mi…

Today’s episode covers the big picture of what myself and Gaelic Awakening, my newly formed political party, seek to bring to Irish politics and society at large. In a nutshell, we need liberty – saoirse. The very thing our ancestors so long laboured and died for is just what is needed to reset our country and by example perhaps help reset Europe, …

I am running for elected office! Ireland is in crisis. Europe is in crisis. The West is in crisis. The Earth is in crisis. You might think we deserve this or that it doesn’t matter, but both are wrong – both are untrue and unjust to proclaim. The systems of liberty and limited government upon which you and I have depended for almost every joy we ha…

On one level there are many problems that confront us; some being life and death, torture and freedom. But ultimately there is only one problem: believing that problems exist. For in truth there is only the Now, including those things out of power to change (which the sane simply accept) and those things in our power to change – which the sane care…

When in doubt, assume you can do it – whatever it is. Happiness and success arise from having the wisdom to ask the question ‘Is this thing within my power?’ and if it is not, then to leave it be and fully accept – even embrace – it. Or if you decide you do indeed have control over the thing in question, then act and wield that power as wisely as y…

Being down to earth is heavenly high! Thankfully a big part of humility is being humble enough to accept that you’re not perfectly humble yet. These things take time, and you are not God! (So to speak.) In all aspects of life, from learning, to leadership, to true kindness, our ability to help ourselves and others depends so deeply upon how well we…

Negative energy is that which shrinks the potential of life for creativity, higher-order complexity, harmonious interconnectedness, and the experience of love, joy and being. Positive energy is that which uplifts, expands, grounds, nourishes and enlivens the living. But there is a time and place for negativity; sometimes it is healthy and even inev…

Companionship, affection, romance, sex; it can all come from casual connections. But a true long-term relationship offers all this and more: not only in spite of, but also because of the difficulties of adjusting one’s ego and habits to the ways of another wilful individual, living together inevitably means learning and growing together. Not only f…

Let's find something nice and heartfelt to say about as many different countries as we can. What a world! Verily overflowing with charming characteristics.Jamie McGlue による

The Joe Rogan Experience RFK Jr Podcast Part Of The Problem, with Dave Smith The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast Aubrey Marcus Podcast Stay Free, with Russel Brand Kosmographia – The Randall …

Nihilists argue nothing really matters; there is no right and wrong, no meaning, no love. It is all a grand and pointless illusion, they say. But there are three problems with this. One, they don’t act like they believe it – for they get unhappy if you cause them pain. Two, the costs of nihilism greatly outweigh the benefits to oneself and the worl…

There’s a surprisingly large amount to be said about silence.Jamie McGlue による

Why do we take the family name of our father, rather than our mother? Is that unfair? This episode looks at the arguments on both sides and concludes . . . well, give me five minutes and I'll tell you!Jamie McGlue による

Culture is the beliefs and behaviours of a society. What do we think is true or false, and good or bad? How do we convert such thinking into action, habit, custom, etiquette? But one’s own personality is in essence an individual culture, while the family, community, town or city, country, continent and world constitute larger scale cultures. Each p…

There is a time and place to be spontaneous. It might just be NOW!Jamie McGlue による

Just as individuals in a circle of friends help one another grow by supporting but daring to draw attention to blindspots, cultures at large (families, creeds, cities, countries, regions) too can strike this joyful and enriching balance of being inspired by friends and inspiring in turn, each offering and accepting the gifts of our unique angle on …

Words run the world; they are a powerful agent of change equally able to uplift to the good or pull down to the bad. We can use words wisely to alter our perspective, emotion, habits. But if we are not careful the words we use use us, blindfolding the soul in their concepts and causing us harm. This episode goes into how one can use words as “magic…

“The bureaucracy is expanding to meet the needs of the expanding bureaucracy.” Quite. This quote sums up the problem when a system of offices and officers are allowed to rule over society on taxpayer funding, making rules and restriction, providing goods and services, yet never having to face the disciplining justice of liberty via the free market.…

Tragedy upon tragedy. A brutal stabbing of children today has sparked a massive riot in the city of Dublin, with police being attacked, vehicles burned and shops looted. While the core of this violence and criminality is surely hooliganism and young impoverished people looking for some mayhem and an enemy they can enjoy fighting, equally we would b…

The only constant – apart from our own consciousness in which all unfolds – is change. This most fundamental of forces can delight and dismay, so let’s look at wise ways of facing change so as to make the best of what is essential and inevitable to existence.Jamie McGlue による

Let’s talk about the lifestyle choices that maximise one’s energy, drive and stamina, as well as the mental and spiritual core truth of what energy is, and how we can learn to access it.Jamie McGlue による

Here cometh a few things exemplifying the pendulumic nature of existence and progress. Ambition, religion, sexuality, gender, kindness, independence, truth – all serve to suggest this pattern. Just like a pendulum swinging from side to side, gradually finding centre, we humans tend to go too far this way and then too far the other way, then (if we …

What follows is a Samhain/Halloween devotional love poem of sorts for Ancestor; being each one of those who brought me to be here as I am, by their devotion, love and will.Jamie McGlue による

The biggest crimes by far have always been by governments. Throughout history everywhere and still now in the present moment of our time on Earth, the terrible crimes of dark and unhinged individuals pale in comparison with the atrocities committed by governments equally against their own people as well as against those of other countries. Yet gove…

While we can and must agree on certain standards for human behaviour, I feel it is often overlooked how one’s context affects the question of virtue and moral excellence. If you are born into the mafia but do your best to err on the side of kindness within your world, then you seem to be showing greater moral effort than one who is born into a fami…

My little baby daughter turns half today! So in honour of her and the beauty she has brought into our lives, I check in with my own father for a debrief on how it’s all been. Parenthood has many challenges, but far more blessings, and the gift keeps on growing.Jamie McGlue による
