Episode 86: Learning From Other Cultures

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/12/14

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 belief and behaviour; and crucially, refraining from judging others as inferior simply by virtue of being different. Some things are clearly right or

Episode 85: The Power Of Positive Language

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/12/07

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 spells” to modify our psychology and thus physiology and behaviour by focusing the mind upon certain words and their associated ideas and feelings; also,

Episode 84: Burn The Bureaucracy

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/12/01

“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. Our world – particularly the West – has increasingly been struggling under the weight of a most misguided expansion of the state apparatus into the realm

Episode 83: Why There’s A Riot In Dublin

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/11/23

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 be wise to see that deeper issues have fuelled this riot and indeed Irish politicians must look themselves in the mirror and assess what they can do to

Episode 82: Change

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/11/17

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.

Episode 80: Pendulum Of Balance

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/11/03

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 try) come to restful centre by way of many a modification of course back toward balance and harmony.

Episode 78: Punishing Peoples For Their Governments

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/10/20

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 governments find it extremely advantageous to confuse us to this fact, and revel in the ambiguity between state and country; a conflation which is made all

Episode 77: Contextual Virtue

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/10/12

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 family who value and practise humanitarian, socially conscious existence – if that person fails to ever grow and aspire to be better for the sake of uplifting

The imagination is there to be used and this episode invites us to conjure up a host of cool characters of our own choice and design who might inspire and influence us to be better livers of life. Whether it’s imagining Leonard Cohen or the Buddha or Grace O’Malley giving off their vibes or even the words we imagine they would offer, or be it abstract principles personified – courage, kindness, endurance, hope, clarity, humour, etc. – it is in our power to consciously use the imagination to

Episode 74: Javier Milei For El Presidente

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/09/22

Javier Milei is predicted to win Argentina’s presidential election on October 22nd, and after checking him out I am very impressed with his presence and his principles. His recipe to reverse the staggering economic decline of his nation is to shrink the state and restore its resourcres and power to the people. For liberty is the core and foundation of not only our happiness but also peace and prosperity. Unfortunately, governments all round the world have become ever more controlling and socialist –

Episode 73: Perfectionism

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/09/14

Life and you and me and even perfection aren’t perfect – but that’s perfect! It’s all perfectly imperfect, the best it can be given that it is what it is. But apart from the mystical heights where all is seen as as it should be (which consciousness propels what is to loftier levels), imperfection also helps us learn and helps us experience the ups and downs of the world. Perfectionism is where we allow our healthy desire for excellence to stray into sickness by deceiving ourselves into thinking a

Episode 72: 33 Reasons To Support RFK Jr. For President

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is the most impressive politician I have seen in a long time. And he comes in our hour of urgent need, running for the White House in 2024. Therefore, today I am doing my part to help a man possessed of integrity and wise leadership to win the most powerful office in the world, and so usher in a new era of peace, prosperity, justice and freedom for a troubled world. Even if you are not American, you are human and so touched by the US president’s hand. Here I present 33 reasons

Episode 71: Invitation To Open Your Mind

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/09/01

This episode invites us to consider radical possibilities about what might actually be true. It presents several important yet controversial (and to some, far-fetched) ideas about the world which I invite you to reflect on and investigate with a sceptical but open mind. Some I know to be true, others I think are probably true, and still others might possibly be true. I also preamble this with a brief overview of critical thinking skills needed to parse through the many contradictory and opposing

Episode 70: Seven Ways To Get Out Of A Rut

2023/08/24

You know the feeling. (Or I guess so.) You don’t know where to go in life; be it the day or the year or from here to the grave. Maybe you don’t even know why or if you really want to do anything at all; can’t find the will to care enough to be logical and proactive. Never fear! Episode 70 is coming to the rescue – or I should say your own curiosity is coming to the rescue of your own apathy, inertia, disorientation. We briefly lay out seven ways to shift things up to get into a new groove and see

Episode 69: Sexuality

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/08/18

Sex is essential, blissful, exciting, terrifying, dangerous, healing, downdragging or uplifting depending on the way one approaches it and embodies their sexuality, their sexual being. Much more than mere pleasure, or radical freedom of expression, sexuality touches upon deep issues of social cohesion and even civilisational survival, and so must be carefully balanced in the individual and the collective. Yet at its pinnacle, this primal connection between beings – oneness returning through and amid

Episode 68: RFK Jr. For President

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/08/10

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is a man of virtue and integrity who I hope to be the next president of the United States of America. Compassionate, intelligent, knowledgeable, diplomatic, humble, empathetic, strong, independent, brave, lighthearted, serious, powerful, open; these words describe him well, yet the corporate press (whose owners stand to lose vast sums of money and societal influence/control should RFK Jr. take office in 2024) paint him as a nutcase, a madman, a fool, a ‘conspiracy theorist’

Episode 67: Beauty

Rendezvous with Jamie McGlue ·

2023/08/03

Beauty is far deeper than the way a person, object or natural scene meets the eye; at its most heartfelt and profound, it is something like the soul of God, the feeling that takes your breath away when a film takes a perfectly unexpectedly inevitable bend of joy, when the balance and harmony of existence is revealed as reassuringly, undeniably meaningful. Join me as I try to get my head around perhaps the most mysterious of words, and hear why I think beauty might be the ultimate meaning of life –
