You Can Call Me The Collector

Published 10 September 2021

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 22:03 — 30.3MB)

Urban legend speaks of a man dressed in a black pinstripe suit, gold pocket watch and a fedora. He appears when you least expect him, and he collects what you desperately try to keep.

Season 3, Episode 10

The Collector goes by different names depending on your culture. I have investigated him for the past couple of years and collected, excuse the pun, many stories from around the world.

Some claim he’s a negative spirit sent from the Underworld, others claim he’s an agent of the Divine Order.

I have mentioned him in an earlier episode and you will hear from him again in the season finale.

The Collector is not a hero or a villain he’s just like us at the same time he’s way different than us. I know that sounds confusing but hang in there.

If you’re still confused after this episode you can DM me on Twitter @poeticearthling also if you have more theories about this supernatural being I will like to hear from you.

Poetic Earthlings Studio is finally open

If you’re thinking about starting a podcast but have no time to edit, sound design and produce it then I could help. We could have a free 30 minute Zoom chat to see if my services will work for you. DM on twitter or on the contact page on my website, Poeticearthlings.com

Connected Dots

Connected Dots

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 14:09 — 19.4MB)

Some events in our lives seem random like unconnected dots, when we look closer we see the threads.

Season 3 Episode 8

If there’s no purpose in life than the pursuit of one’s pleasure then the human experience will have no meaning.

True meaninglessness is to inhabit a universe without strings. To exist as a singular organism detached and independent.

Some may call this liberation to live without attachments, to answer to no one, to be your own god.

Detachment and radical independence creates loneliness. “Man is not made to be alone.”

Like it or not are actions creates a ripple effect, and other people’s actions impacts us.
We are influenced for good or bad.

There is also Cosmic Domino Effect where one action creates a chain reaction. Cosmic Domino Effects are difficult to escape, but not all of them end poorly.

Tom Cruise VS Jesus

Tom Cruise VS Jesus

Published 2 August 2021

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 18:24 — 25.3MB)

The Hollywood Superstar or the Chosen One, who will you choose.

S3 Episode 7

Jesus has been misunderstood, misscategorized and maligned.
He’s the most famous man to ever walk the Earth. His teachings and way of life is both magnetizing and polarizing.

He was born a rebel, lived as a revolutionist and died as a martyr.
His followers called him the Lamb of God, the Lion from the tribe of Judah, the Chosen One.

Times have changed and has given birth to Hollywood and Social Media. Historical figures with rough edges and uncomfortable features are chiseled, repackaged and relabled.

To appeal to a broader demographic Jesus had to change. His radical ideas and unbending dogma needed to give way to progressive enlightenment.
Sin, damnation and the cross needed to be replaced.

With slow strategic and precise measures a new Jesus emerged from the factory. This version is passive, tame and a bit of a hippie with long blonde hair and creamy blue eyes.

By toning down his message and converting him into a self help guru he appeals to the everyday Walmart Shopper.

Not wanting to feel left out many churches ditched the biblical Jesus for version 2.0. Such a gamble paid off as Mega Churches blossomed across America.

The historical/biblical Jesus is still out there in the desert telling mankind to repent. It’s harder to find him with Netflix, YouTube and thousands of distractions.

If you search for the real Jesus you may not like him. He’s not going to tickle your ear and call you his special snowflake.
He’s not going to overlook your sins and give you a pat on the back. Too bad.
So be careful what you search for.

Jimmy’s Abduction

Jimmy’s Abduction

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 17:49 — 24.5MB)

A certified bigot, an uncanny heist and the coming apocalypse. Humanity hangs in the balance of a simple farmer who pays his taxes and keeps his head down. The clock is ticking, is it too late.

S3 Ep 5

The universe is too vast for us to be the only intelligent liform, you may disagree. I’m not here to convert you, or convince you of strange green men from the distant realms. To be honest, I have my doubts.

If there is alien life somewhere in the distant stars I bet it will look different, way different from Hollywood’s interpretation.

Special Thanks

Jimmy was performed by Timothy Kimo Brien from Create Art Podcast please visit his website and check out his books. Thanks Tim.

Have you met a person who’s the jack of all trades and the master of all.

The Head Instigator himself, Timothy Kimo Brien is my special guest on this bonus episode.
He’s the host of Podwrecked, Clearly Obtuse and Create Art Podcast.
He’s also an author and visual artist. Timothy shares candidly about his battles with MS and how it influences his creativity.

S3 Ep 3 (Special Bonus Episode)

Timothy also also shatters the stereotype and the stigma of poetry, he also debunks the so called ‘writers block’ and encourages all of us to sit down and do the work. I had a great time speaking with him and I’m sure his enthusiasm and zeal will motivate you.

If you have children or your young at heart I highly recommend The Two Princesses by Timothy Kimo Brien. This is a fairytale about two young princesses who refuses to go to sleep no matter what. You could find all of his books on Kindle or on his website, Createartpodcast.com

Timothy “Kimo” Brien has started his career in Poetry and Theater in 1990. He learned how to play acoustic guitar and bass guitar from his older brother Pete and tuba from his older brother Mike. Taking this into Thomas Jefferson High School he joined the school orchestra and took a beginning theater class. From there his desires to perform began. He also was stuck in an honors English class so he could take his electives and that is where he found his love of poetry, accidentally. Exposed to T.S. Elliot at that age, specifically, The Hollow Men, led Timothy on a journey of exploration. This was an accident as the class was reading one poem and Timothy was reading the one that would change his life forever.
