I like to think about Shaw's words regarding experiencing beauty and how it prepares us for eternity. There's so much mystery and depth in that and has me wondering about our encounters with beauty also being a remembering. We are prepared by being reminded, or some such. In the story I was at London Bridge waiting for something good to happen -- which makes me laugh because it sounds kinda sad but I'm just still in that seeking space. I may have even heard the man's dream and it's meaning hasn't yet occurred to me. I may even be a little spooked to know. As much as I long I am also quite bull headed/dense, or I am too distracted by dancing bears. Anyway! This was a delight. Thank you.
Dr. Shaw mentioned a new book that he has "completed" I believe he said. Does anyone know what book he is referring to? Or whether or not this book has been published yet? Thank you.
From my experience, because the US has had an outsized influence on the rest of the global economy. So whether other countries like it or not, they are inextricably tied the what is going on in America. I have had extensive experience internationally, and am always amazed at how well-read people in other countries are around US history and politics compared to my own knowledge of the inner workings of their culture, history and politics. Hope this helps.
always appreciate Ian's thoughtful interviews and Martin's wisdom. thank you!
Highly recommend Martin’s subscription it’s a brilliant weekly treat.

Interesting that the rest of this channel is activist lawyers and free love hippies!
Why do Europeans care about the US president so much?
