    It'll be a once a fortnight affair this time. We've got some stuff in the can which I'm going to use along with a few new bits we'll make along the way. I got sick during COVID, not of actual COVID but of the way the discussions were going. My answer to it all was the breatharian guy. Notice that didn't get a health warning!? Wow. He was telling people to stare into the sun and only eat fast food. I mean, enough said.

    0032 INTERVIEW | The Breatharian Institute of America

    0032 INTERVIEW | The Breatharian Institute of America

    This piece is an interview with Brendon Dey of the Breatharian Institute of America, an organisation founded upon the teachings of Wiley Brooks. A man who became notable after being featured on television in America. A moment our guest Brendon Dey will never forget...
    This podcast is not to be considered as health advice; it's an interview with a fascinating man who represents his belief system with refreshing honesty. This piece is a real treat for Discordians looking for a fresh and unusual reality tunnel to try for a few days, without following any of the implied advice.
    In many ways this podcast is intended as a satire on the notion that podcasts should be ever be censored on the grounds that people may follow the advice on them. They shouldn't. Podcast listeners are not idiots, this medium is not - and never should be - the new "radio" or "broadcast" media. It's able to do that but it can do so much more...
    Check out our guest's instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/breatharianinstitute/
    Their website is here: http://www.breatharian.com/breatharians/
    The incredible music we use in the background is by the following artists, who flatter the Cult Of Nick by saying they are occasional listeners as well...
    Complexi-Tales: https://complexi-tales.bandcamp.com/
    Mike Richmond: https://mikerichmond.bandcamp.com/
    Crednes Codpiece: https://sound4good.bandcamp.com/track/saturnalia
    Our guest shares these final words:
    Hi Nick,
    I wanted to add a couple of details in case you or any of your listeners would care to know. Wiley also told me, as it related to the young women that he saw in the pornography industry, that he would have no interest in being on this planet with all of us at all, doing the things that he did, if he didn't get the joy of looking at these young women's bodies which he considered to be
    Perfect 🤣 ...
    And who can blame him?
    So even though he hadn't had an erection in at least 10 years, he was motivated by the energy of seeing young beautiful women, until the end of his time in the body, on Earth. I thought that I should add this so you could relate maybe on a deeper level, to his position.
    He made it very clear that he never masturbated, but used the energy that he felt from looking at the women, to produce the feelings of Love and Joy within his body. This is what he considered to be the ultimate highest calling of all humans: to produce Joy (hormones) in our bodies.
    Cheers!

THE CULT OF NICK RETURNS!

YAY! Nick has returned! Now called The Nick Margerrison podcast, The Cult Of Nick podcast with Nick Margerrison has always been one of my very favorites. I realized many times over the past two years, when the podcast was on an apparent hiatus, that every time I went to tidy up my podcast feed of defunct and not listened to programs, that I could just not delete the feed and give up hope that one day our leader would return to lead us back into Chaos. As a long standing Cult member, imagine my delight and surprise when I went to check my podcast feed this Saturday morning, February 24th 2018, to see a large icon of Nick’s eye staring ME right in the eye. And the new episode did not disappoint! Nick has always covered topics considered ‘fringe’ amongst other thought provoking exercises. Ironically a lot of these subjects have since gone mainstream. Already an accomplished broadcaster before ‘The Cult of Nick’, it should be noted that the old feed is still part of the new format and ALL of the old episodes are definitely worth listening to. Some of the episodes are strictly CON content and/or mashups with old Kerrang radio unedited broadcasts Nick had done in the past. Highlights include amazing interviews with Alan Moore, Alex Jones and a historic interview and on air admission from Edgar Mitchell about UFOs that will blow your mind. And much, much more. This podcast deserves your attention. Nick is truly a master of his craft. Welcome back Nick! Not a moment too soon either. All Hail Eris! See you next podcast!

I never would have guessed...

...that I'd be binge-listening to this at 12:15 AM, kept up by the interesting discussions and good humor; the production is great, too! An all-around wonderful and entertaining podcast. I think this'll be a new "cult classic!" (Pun intended.)
