The Nick Margerrison Podcast

Long term Cult listeners will be aware of my obsession with the idea of free speech around the turn of 2013-2014. I loved Claire's book "I find that offensive", the focus of this interview. Please spread the word that the podcast has returned! Invite a mate to join the internet's least sinister cult of Discord! Here's Claire's bio: Claire Fox is the director of the Institute of Ideas, which she established to create a public space where ideas can be contested without constraint. She has a particular interest in education and social issues such as crime and mental health. Claire is a panellist on BBC Radio 4’s The Moral Maze and is regularly invited to comment on developments in culture, education and the media on TV and radio programmes such as Question Time and Any Questions? She is also a columnist for TES (Times Education Supplement) and MJ (Municipal Journal). Claire is an Executive Board member of the Institute for Risk and Disaster Reduction (IRDR), UCL, and a Fellow of Wellington College....

The Cult Of Nick relaunches with an awesome interview featuring Ashley Mortimer of The Doreen Valiente Foundation.   There's a few words at the end about cult founder Mr Margerrison's bumbling from one talk station to another, which put the podcast on a slight hiatus for a while.   In that period, weirdly, the audience has grown some more, looking at approximately 5,000 listeners (per podcast) these days.   The Discordian tribe is expanding!   NM   TWITTER: www.twitter.com/nickmargerrison Like this podcast? Step 1, subscribe. Step 2, tell others. Step 3, Get all smug in the future when the audience is even bigger and yet you were here first... Want to join the internet's least sinister cult? Only way to do it is to listen to every single podcast in this feed.

Gabrielle D Roberts gives us some thoughts on spiritual enlightenment. This triggers some conversation in the latter part of the podcast about initiation and enlightenment in general. And a few thoughts about Mars. The Cult Of Nick has finally moved to Talk2MeRadio - this means you can now subscribe to it via ACAST.

Music by the legendary @quislingmeet   C.O.N favourite John Higgs goes through his latest work, "Stranger than we can imagine, making sense of the 20th Century".   NM

The wonderful Runesoup iz here: http://runesoup.com/ Welcome to new listeners, you're late. We've been doing this for ages now. Want to join? You need to listen to every single podcast. You won't get it if you don't do that. It'll just be noise. The wonderful music in the background is from an excellent pop act: https://twitter.com/quislingmeet They are available for live gigs etc. Why not book them to spice up your next corporate event? Speaking of which, it does appear that this podcast is now on the verge of earning money without "selling out". Cult members will be able to imagine how exciting this is. New listeners will not. But they might get an idea if they download the whole lot and join... NM

A fun interview with The Right Reverend Ryan Richards [REDACTED]. We wander around the world of Discordia chatting about Pope Bob and the various projects this celebrated Erisian is manifesting. Further information here: http://discordia.wikia.com/wiki/Right_Reverend The podcast has almost "pod faded" in recent times. This is ironic because I am working on a project which will be focused on podcasting. Stick with me, cult member, the dawn broke a few months ago and a glorious podcasting sunrise is on its way.
